    It’s a free and easy way to have a 99 OVR switch hitter with any stance you want in your lineup at literally any position. That’s why people do it

    This is the answer. If you don't want a maxed out ballplayer there's not much reason to do it. Its boring. I got a maxed out "the hawk" SS and he is my best player.

    Doing the rtts sim has gotten me to 350k xp in like 3 days the last two programs. For XP, It definitely is better than just playing.

    You probably didn’t use the correct rosters for obvious reasons. You can get about 250 hits in a game sometimes, most of which are XBs. PS5 load times make it completely broken.

    How do you sim and get xp? Do you just go to the calendar and sim, or do you actually get into games?

    I used the ones that are from LSC.

    I had two out of 30-35 games where I 'scored' more than 40 runs.

    But as I said, both times even though I have over 100ABs and over 100 hits, it only gave me a 5 pt boost in the reward path.

    Go into a game, hit play appearance then exit and sim. All your stats will count in whichever archetype program you have equipped. 1b is good for putouts and assists.

    That is because the stats cannot turn in game. So once you hit the 24 AB's or whatever, it stops tallying until you start a new game. Same with XBH and other stats. So you can only hit those once in a game. This also happens in TA innings or hits or whatever. If you need 5 more innings to complete the innings requirement or 5 more TB to complete TB requirements, 145/150 for example, and you have 50 innings in a game or 20 TB in a game, you will be at 0/150 for both Innings and TB when you start a new game instead of 45/150 and 15/150.

    Ahhh. I did not know that. So technically getting all those runs is just a waste.

    There's an easier way. Download a roster from LSC. It's call RTTS Grind. It has all the players stats decreased. Load that roster after you select your Loadout and say you want to play for the Rockies.
    You then need to sim to AP 7 and decline being a two way player. Then when you select to play your games; as soon as you see the stadium come into view hit start. Then go to Exit. Select Sim and Exit. Then once it starts summing hit 'O' to speed it up. Rinse and repeat.

    Cool, good to know! Doing it the regular way went by really fast so I’m guessing this will let people really fly through their archetypes.

    You're earning rewards from the XP program as well as each Archetype program which also leads to stubs.

    Thats why, you can easily profit 50-60k with just a few hours of sim.

    It's not a glitch. You can just Sim games in rtts. Nothing glitchy about it. Not an exploit either. It takes time and you can only do so many. They cannot come back and punish you for something that they designed even if they didn't mean it that way. No one would have a maxed out ballplayer if they had to actually play all those games.

    Ok, so I labeled it wrong. But the main reason for the post is how is it 'better' to do this than to at the game?

    I mean if you do this for 10 hours straight, you could get to 350K. But if you also play regularly for 10 hrs straight; I'm sure you could still hit 350K, plus get stubs and parallel progress. No?

    After the first time, your CAP will be at lvl. 50 on every stat and you will start at like an 85+ with every bronze badge after that. It only takes about 3 1/2 -5 hours per arch and you get 116,000 XP per arch in that time. Plus 30,000-60,000+ stubs if you sell all perks and equipment you pull. Rinse and repeat. It is not a glitch.

    Also, this. On PS5 I was able to complete a full arch in under 4 hours. Sometimes, depending on the arch, under 3 hours. You are in, simulated and out of a 3 game series in under 5 mins on PS5.

    This whole situation with overall 99 ballplayers that people just sat there and pressed buttons for hours to get, really takes away from the "gacha" fun of Diamond Dynasty...it hasn't affected me much, but to see people abusing the system while some of us prefer to earn the "wins" and play the right way...kinda dampens the mood.
