All 80 Gens Generator Tiers: how it works

Generators are the heart of Gens. Each one sits on your island and drops an item on a timer, and you sell those drops for Money. Better tiers drop more valuable items, so climbing the tier ladder is how your income grows.

How to open it: Buy generators in /genlist (or /genshop) and place them on your island. Use /storage to see stored drops, /storage sell to sell them, and /claimallgens to pick every generator back up.

There are currently 80 generator tiers, from the Wheat Generator to the Beacon Generator.

  • Free starter tiers: Tiers 1 to 7, Wheat to Coal, need no prestige at all.
  • Total Prestige gates: Tier 8, the Iron Generator, opens at Total Prestige 96, and the Beacon Generator needs 2,250.
  • Drop timer: Each generator drops every 20 seconds, down to 10 seconds with the Generator Speed island upgrade.
  • Generator slots: You start with 20 slots and gain 1 more for every Total Prestige, plus rank and Genslot reward slots.
  • Offline storage: While you are offline, generators fill /storage for up to 8 hours, longer with a higher rank.
  • Generator Loaders: Small, Medium and Large Loaders keep generators in a 16, 32 or 64 block area producing while you are away.
  • Generator Boosters: Boosters I to V raise generator output in a 32 block area, from x1.05 up to x1.25.
  • Infinite Storage: Collects generator drops past the 128 hopper limit, across 3 tiers with 7 slots per tier.

Note: You can only upgrade a generator to a tier your Total Prestige has already unlocked.

Tips

  • Upgrade your best generators first. Each new tier is priced to pay itself back, so it usually beats buying many low tiers.
  • Keep every slot filled. Prestiging any world adds a slot, so check /genlist after each prestige.
  • Each island can hold 4 loaders and 4 boosters, so place them where your generators are packed closest together.
  • If too many drops pile up on the ground, new drops go to /storage at full value, so nothing is wasted.

Example: Slots are 20 base, plus 1 per Total Prestige, plus your rank bonus. At Total Prestige 96 with Hermes (+5), you can place 20 + 96 + 5 = 121 generators, before any Genslot rewards.

How Generators Work

Buy a generator in /genlist and place it on your island. Every generator drops its item on a timer: one drop every 20 seconds at the start, down to 10 seconds with the Generator Speed island upgrade.

Drops land next to the generator. If your island has too many drops on the ground, new drops go to /storage at full value instead. While you are offline your generators keep filling /storage for up to 8 hours (longer with a rank), and you get a Sell All button when you come back.

  • Start: 20 generator slots, plus 1 per Total Prestige, plus rank and reward slots.
  • Tiers 1 to 7 (Wheat to Coal) need no prestige; tier 8 (Iron) needs Total Prestige 96 and tier 80 (Beacon) needs 2,250.
  • Generator Loaders keep generators producing while you are away; Generator Boosters raise output by up to x1.25.
  • Offline production speed is its own island upgrade: 40 seconds per drop, down to 20 seconds.

Upgrading Generators

Upgrade a placed generator to the next tier with Money. Each tier drops a more valuable item. The upgrade cost is set so a new tier pays itself back over time, so upgrading your best generators is usually better than buying many low ones.

You can only upgrade to a tier your Total Prestige has unlocked. Prestige more in the Farm, Mine and Lake to open the next generator tiers.

  • Generator Value island upgrade: +2% drop value per level, up to +20%.
  • Generator Value and Generator Mastery skill tree tracks also raise drop value; your best world tree counts.

Selling

Use /sell to sell your inventory, /sell hand for the item you hold, or /storage sell for stored generator drops. Your backpack can sell automatically with the Auto Sell enchant.

Money boosts from your rank, pets, Booster vouchers and the Sell Boost backpack enchant all raise what you get.

All 80 Gens Generator Tiers

Every generator, what it drops. The first 7 tiers are free to unlock. Higher tiers need Total Prestige (your Farm, Mine and Lake prestiges added together). Generator Value island upgrades, skill tree nodes, boosters and rank boosts raise what you earn.
