How do you think it feels when you see people running around with huge  pets, such as an Abyssal Serpent, an Oblivion Shard, or a big mythic? We know the feeling. We sit there for hours rotom and potion burning, all to watch a blank bag.

After calculating the numerous hours spent to analyze drop rates and game mechanics, we concluded getting your first Secret is not purely luck. It is to an extent planned strategically to ensure the most possible volume. It does not matter whether you are a beginner or an advanced player with quadrillions of rebirths, you must follow a specific path.

This guide will help you to claim your first Secret pet in the least amount of time possible.

↖ Step 1: Hatching Secrets (Game Passes)

We first need to discuss the math. As it stands, the default 3 egg limit makes hatching a Secret up to 10 times more difficult.

With still a shot at winning it, the goal is to compete for a Secret, which means you will need to maximize attempts per second. This means two specific Game Passes you must buy if you want results fast:

1. Octo-Hatch. Hatching 8 at a time gives you a larger probability volume.

2. Fast Hatch. This shortens the hatching animation, allowing for more cycles per minute.

Why does this matter?

If you look at it this way, a player with Octo-hatch is running 8 separate simulations of the RNG at the same time. If you don't have these, your time is better spent trading (which we will cover later) more than hatching.

↖ Step 2: The other way to boost your luck (+ Secret Hunter Game Pass)

Buying the Secret Hunter Game Pass (1,500 tokens) is a waste of money folks.

There's also a cheaper, potentially more effective method: The Secret Hunter Enchant.

All pets that you equip can be enchanted. Rolling the Secret Hunter enchant gives you about 4% luck boosts per enchanted pet.

Easy Method

Now, don't waste time and spin manually; you can set up Auto-Enchant. Pick your best pets, set the enchant to Secret Hunter, and let it do its thing. It's not a rare enchant (not like the 0.1% mythics), so you can quickly make a whole team of Secret Hunters. This boost is essential before your long hatching sessions.

↖ Step 3: The Serenity Method (The Easiest Secret)

If you don't care about the stats and just want to achieve owning a Secret, this is your method.

Most players head to the Celestial World or the latest update area. Yet the easiest Secret of the game lurks in the Forest World.

• Target: The Serenity Pet.
• Position: Forest Egg.

Compared to other endgame Secrets, the drop rate for the Serenity is really generous, bordering on the unreal for such Secrets. Players have reported more than a single Serenity pet in several hatching sessions. If your luck is really low, just head back to the Forest, use your best luck potions, and a Secret notification may appear quicker than you expect.

↖ Step 4: Strategy for the Admin Abuse Event

When you see Admin Abuse event, just drop whatever you are doing and join.

These updates come along with global bonuses that are otherwise impossible to obtain. We're talking about 100x Luck Multipliers.

The Strategy:

1. Wait until the Admin Abuse update notification drops.

2. Claim the customary 1,000 Tokens giveaway.

3. Consume every Lucky Potion you have in your inventory.

4. Hatch the highest tier egg you can buy. That is, the 40 Mil Egg or Event Egg.Using potions, you could get a secret drop with the 100x multiplier in under 5 minutes. That is how we got the Darkest Knight and Abyss Serpent.

↖ Step 5: The Economy Route (Zero Luck Required)

What if you have bad luck? What if you hatched for days and got nothing? Then, stop hatching and start selling.

In Tap Simulator, the economy is driven by Stat Pets like the Void Rainbow Storm Cloud Kitsune from the Celestial World. High-level players are too lazy to hatch fodder and would rather buy it.

To buy your first secret, do the following:

1. Farm Stat Pets: AFK hatch overnight in Celestial World (or your highest unlocked world).

2. Craft & Collect: Craft them to Rainbows or Voids.

3. Sell: In the trading plaza, sell these stat pets for 5-10 tokens each.

4. Buy: When you have 100-200 tokens, you can buy a cheap secret (like the Serenity or a low-tier event secret) from another player.

This way, you are guaranteed to get a secret without any gambling.

↖ FAQ

Q: Is it worthwhile to hatch a World Celestial egg for any Secrets?

A: It would be for an endgame player. 15 SP comes out to be a lot, and if you do not have qautrillions in rebirths and a large multiplier, you will in fact, run out of currency before even hitting a pity timer from the 15 SP egg. Better to go for the 40 million egg over and over, or rely on the event eggs.

Q: Should I buy Nebula Cyborg with tokens?

A: Yes, it is around 1000 tokens, but it is not suggested. Secrets, in fact, are cheaper, and the tokens could also be used for Game Passes.

Q: Do Luck Potions and the Secret Hunter enchant stack?

A: Yes. It is ideal to have the highest level of luck potions on and Secret Hunter, as it gives the highest chance overall.

↖ Final Thoughts

In Tap Simulator, getting a Secret is a big milestone. It could be getting a Forest Serenity egg, or waiting for luck boosts to come from Admin Abuse events. This could also be achieved through consistent trades. Getting a Secret in Tap Simulator provides more opportunities.

Don't count on just one lucky click. Build your enchant team, get the Octo-hatch if you can, and use the market to your advantage. Once you break that barrier and get your first one, the rest will follow. Good luck out there!
