Noob Incremental Guide – Prestige 1–19 Route, Oof Costs & Rune Order

By Money Lord — Founder & Editor | Updated: September 7, 2026

Last checked: September 7, 2026 — every number below re-verified against Ghoulax Studio's official guide (last updated September 2, 2026), the live Roblox games and game-pass APIs, and Rolimon's CCU history

This guide gives you the part most Noob Incremental pages get wrong: the real Oof cost of every prestige step the developers publish, the Realm 3, Realm 4 and Yin & Yang gates that replace those numbers from Prestige 12 to 19, which currency rolls which Rune tier, and when Enchants open. Every figure comes from Ghoulax Studio's own guide, not from tracker copies.

Read from the Roblox games API on September 7, 2026: 42,564,612 lifetime visits, 74,483 favorites, a 96.3% rating (71,582 likes to 2,772 dislikes) and 4,093 people in-game at that moment. A single reading is not a player count, so the card uses a peak: Rolimon's, read on September 7, 2026, logs 5,046 over 24 hours and 5,308 over 7 days against 11,173 over 30 days and an all-time 22,547 — roughly half the mid-August level, on 32-minute average sessions. The experience is listed as [UPD 3🌙] Noob Incremental by the verified group Ghoulax Games and went live on March 30, 2026.

The Oof loop, and the Upgrade Board trick

Noob Incremental runs on one currency, Oof, and every prestige reset is bought with it. You buy Noobs, Noobs generate Oof, and Oof buys upgrades that make the next batch of Noobs earn more.

The single most useful early instruction in the developer's guide is about the Upgrade Board: buying 15 upgrades on the board doubles the multiplier you receive. That threshold matters more than spreading Oof across everything you can afford. Upgrading the Noob itself is the other high-value sink.

When the board prices you out, the intended move is not to grind Oof harder but to Rebirth, covered next. Before any of it, redeem whatever is live on our Noob Incremental codes page — the developers' guide opens with the same advice, because codes hand out permanent Luck, Tickets, Potions and Enchant Shards you would otherwise grind for.

Rebirth and Prisms — the two systems beginners skip

Rebirth unlocks once you have banked 10,000 Oof. It pays out Rebirth Points scaled to the Oof you are holding, and those buy a small board of their own — two upgrades to start. The loop while stuck: wait a couple of minutes, Rebirth, spend on more Oof Multiplier.

Rebirth is also the gate on your first prestige. The official guide's marker is concrete: you can prestige once you have 6/6 on the "More Oof" upgrade in the Rebirth board. That is a more reliable signal than any flat Oof number, because your Oof total there depends on the board upgrades and Noob levels you already own.

Prisms are the other system new players ignore. They generate on a timer, and the Prism Tree holds eight Prism upgrades that compound your gain. Buy Prism generation speed first, then Prism multipliers on the left-hand side of the tree, and max those before you branch into stat upgrades. With enough upgrades the Prism tick can be pulled down to nine seconds. Prisms later pay for Equipment, the Prism Rune, minion capsules and Prism Milestones, and Necklaces boost Prism gain more than any other Equipment slot.

Every prestige step and what it costs

Prestige resets your run in exchange for automations and whole new systems. The official Ghoulax Studio guide documents the route through Prestige 19, where the Yin & Yang Dimension in Realm 4 opens up. If you have read that the game has four prestige layers, or seventeen, those pages are simply out of date.

These are the Oof requirements the developers state for each step. On notation: 25No and 10OcDe are idle-game number suffixes, and 1.0e640 means 10 to the power of 640.

Prestige 12–19: the four gates that matter

Past Prestige 11 the developers stop publishing flat Oof thresholds and switch to route instructions, because the requirement there rides on Tiers, minions and gamepasses rather than one number. They do still publish the hard gates. Their guide's author states he holds every gamepass and has Transcendent on all his Noobs, so treat his step counts as a guideline and these gates as the real targets.

Two numbers save real time here. 25% of your Gems survive a prestige, so banking Gems before a reset is never wasted. And Bones, the Realm 3 currency behind most of the Prestige 12–13 tree, convert at 1B Meat for 3 Bones with a 100B Meat deposit cap; that tree's first three upgrades cost 150k Bones, 12.5T Meat and 4M Bones in that order.

At Prestige 19 the Light and Dark Rune thresholds are the only published schedule in the late game. At roughly 1DDe Luck, Divine Light needs 1.56DDe Yang and Infinite Darkness 104DDe Yin, rising to 104UTg for Angelic Goodness and Demonic Evil. Light rolls far more cheaply than Dark early, which is why the route farms Yang first. The guide signs off telling you to be "ready for Prestige 20 when it comes out" — 19 is currently the highest layer in the game.

Runes: one currency per tier

Third-party guides usually treat Runes as one system rolled with one currency. Each Rune tier has its own currency instead. The Basic Rune runs on Fire, and it costs 50 Fire per Rune. The Deepcore Rune, which arrives with the Mine, is rolled with Gems. The Super Rune and Advanced Rune sit between them, and Football Runes come from the World Cup Event, which opens at Prestige 1 and hands them over at Trophy 3 rather than at any prestige step.

Two stats govern every roll. Luck reduces the odds you need to hit a Rune, and Bulk increases how many Runes you open per tick — 1 Bulk rolls one Rune, 2 Bulk rolls two per open. Later you also care about RPS (Runes per second), because the "Noobinial" Runes are not affected by Rune Luck at all, only by RPS. One counter-intuitive setting follows from that: dropping Rune Luck to 1 in the settings menu raises your chance of pulling a Noobinial.

Named Runes worth knowing as you climb include Universal and Void from the Super Rune, Divine, Infinite, Abyss and Enigma from the Advanced Rune, and Phantom from the Basic Rune. Stack Rune Bulk and Rune Speed from the Prism UI Tree before rolling, and bank the Rune potions from the codes page first.

Enchants and Enchant Shards

Enchants unlock at Prestige 4 and are levelled with Enchant Shards — not Tickets, and not the Rune currencies above. They apply traits to your Noobs, and the traits worth chasing change as you progress:

1. Prestige 1–4 — yellow traits. Each yellow trait is a meaningful early boost, and they are realistic to hit before you own the luck gamepass or have a shard stockpile.
2. Prestige 5–7 — rainbow traits. Aim for Deity or Godly, but at this stage any rainbow trait is worth keeping. You will pull multiple Ethereal traits here; hold them for the end game rather than replacing them.
3. Prestige 8 and up — Godly, Almighty or Transcendent. The guide names those three and then tells you to prioritise the two rarest of them without saying which two, so keep any Deity you already hold rather than rerolling on a guess. All three land far more often with the luck gamepass.

Shards come from five places with very different throughput: Expeditions are the most consistent, at roughly 10,000–20,000 shards a day; Quests give around 1,500–2,000 a week depending on luck; Time Trial chests are the figure everyone quotes wrong — 20 shards on a T1 Rare drop and 40 on a T2 Rare, but 135 and 200 on a Legendary, and Legendary fires on 1.75% of T1 chests and 2.5% of T2s, so "20–40 a chest" is the floor rather than the range; codes are the easiest one-off source; and shards are buyable for Robux. Trials unlock at Prestige 12 and open every 30 minutes at xx:00 and xx:30, so they reward a timer. Expeditions are the reason to keep your Noobs deployed even while you are doing something else.

Free boosts, and what the gamepasses cost

Three permanent boosts are free, listed in the game's own description: Roblox Plus players get +10% Oof and +10% Prism, joining the Ghoulax Games group and liking the game gives +10% Rune Speed, and joining the community server gives +10% Rune Luck. Collect all three first.

Ghoulax Games sells exactly seven gamepasses, all still on sale. Prices read from the Roblox game-pass API on September 7, 2026: Noobs Master and Luck Master at 499 Robux; Prism Master and Minion Master at 599 Robux; Rune Master, Miner Master and Swords Master at 699 Robux each. None are required to progress.
