It is however very rare that people are able to follow this exact list due to real life or a mess up in your build. Which is why we’re also going to look into the max explore formula:

Max Explore Formula
This formula only applies during newbie mode. After newbie mode always aim to explore in 24s.

Explore Available = how much can you explore ? → Land / 10 - currently exploring

Leftover Land = leftover of Land / 10, written as Land % 10 ;

Those are the only two variables you actually need.

If (Explore Available) > 22

→ explore the maximum you can If (Explore Available - Leftover Land) >= 12 AND (9 - Leftover Land) > 5

→ explore the maximum you can

How To Apply the Formula
Here’s an example:

Total Land = 280

Currently Exploring = 24

Explore Available = 28 - 14 = 14

Leftover Land = 280 % 10 = 0

If (Explore Available) > 22

→ FALSE

If (Explore Available - Leftover Land) >= 12

→ 14 - 0 >= 12

→ TRUE

AND (9 - Leftover Land) > 5

→ 9 - 0 > 5

→ TRUE

→ Explore the Maximum you can

→ Explore 14
