Remove the damn rank modifier Poll

You rethink your actions of attacking those so clearly out of your power levels, since it will only bring scorn from the ranks of the ascended. In general, you can engage realms in between 5x your size, and 1/5th your size.

I mean this is just silly.

Re: Remove the damn rank modifier Poll

I hit someone last night, woke up this morning and I couldn't hit them because they were only 1/5th my size. I was one hit away from descending them :(
I agree, it should go.
Never argue with idiots. They bring you down to their level and beat you with years of experience!

Re: Remove the damn rank modifier Poll

Re: Remove the damn rank modifier Poll

both the % and the 1/5 thing are pointless and the former is open to abuse....have one guy dropping rank to hit with 2 t strike just ot get the 1.3 mod...its ridiculous...and seriously if you have a halfway decent account ur at 1 bil planets and even then i think your more then a good ways inside 1/5 the biggest players with the current caps...anyone with smaller size just cant get nearly enough income for it to be worth to far mso they wont be hit anyway except by people their size

...these are useless updates that only give people incentive to abuse them

Because they are updates being implemented by a madman who refuses to listen to his playtesters and only listens to people who don't actually PLAY the game.

Agreed, the vultures now will just build up to that nice 1/5 size, mass who they need to, as both accounts come down in size they will beable to keep massing, when they are done, they hit someone else to drop way under the 1/5 size and then they are untouchable, ascended is totally nerfed now.

Re: Remove the damn rank modifier Poll

the solution is that you can do ascended being attacks on those below 5x's your size...

Re: Remove the damn rank modifier Poll

The solution is, if your a new player reading this, just ascend and never log into your ascended account, and your all set, everyone else who has logged in at least once, your screwed, end of story really.
