Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

With the Daimon concept, one could concievably ascend to LG+1, "descend" themselves, change to mortal race and redo it all. Would they not then keep the original 30% boost and add another 5% per ascension back up to LG+1?

No as if they went back to a mortal race then all their ascended stats would be lost.

I still dont like people keeping all their MS slots though they should lose them all when ascending, other than that its all fine.
Keep smiling it makes people wonder what your up to.

Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

check all my post since joining and see how many involved complaining. Self-Descention should have a bigger penalty.

Correct me if im wrong, but this sounds like a person can ascend for max main binuses then descend themselves, keep the percentage boost, and all they loose is the Blessing? This doesnt seem fair at all. There should definately be more of a penalty for this.


That is exactly what im thinking, all they have to do now is ascended to LG + ( whatever they want ) say 10, then do hit descend and all the lose is ascended blessing, who cares when you have a 2trill strike.....agree admin needs to think about more penalties here.
Deep within Noob Cave, you find a strange pool filled with a glowing blue liquid. You think back to what your mother told you about unfamiliar liquids found in caves.

You're pretty sure she said "Drink it! What's the worst that can happen?"

Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

yes, i have to agree that if you just "quit" ascension you shouldn't really get the bonus. I think you get around 50% of it (which would be better then the new vac mode) and lose your ascended blessing (for obvious reasons lol). I assume that when you change race, you lose your bonus and take on the bonus (and race tech) of the new race?

Also, what changes after 700mil planets exactly? can you tell us the rates please? most people can't test that lol. from the sounds of it, a bit stronger of a soft cap may be required, but not as strong as main because in main you are slowly moving towards a wall where it's imposable to grow.

Just so you know my alliance (Tauri Alliance) thinks (pretty much unanimously...bar me lol) a 475k UP ascension, costing 200 tril naq (which is around 314mil units!, approx twice the biggest player in the game), would only be around the size of one of the top DD accounts, which of course could then be easily destroyed by DD...

Nice work admin. You have found a pretty good middleground :-)

As for the demigod thing, I like it how it is. It is pretty cool.

yes this was removed to give people a better chance at growing without having their planets raided away

Initiate Revolution still exists so that during war times you can untrain their income planets (so they dont earn much) and cripple them that way ;)

Suggestion

Remove their ascended weapons...

no more ascended weapons just the regular 167,800 ones... that way with the 30% bonus they dont get great weapons

I believe the loss of AB isn't quite good enough... I like the Daimon idea but a little strong...

and I also like the no strike/income bonus for Vac mode

Cheers admin :)

I have been contemplating on this idea a bit my self, and noticed that it says "only race avalaible to them" which leads me to believe that once they chose to fall they lose the ability to chose a difrent race (ie asgaurd, taurie, etc) but my thoughts concern would more fall in the realm of can or can't they re-ascend once they quit and become demi gods, because if they can't re-ascended and they cant chose a difrent race then they are stuck as is on the time they decied to take the plung, unless they want to start the game all over with a new acount. and if my thoughts are on the right track then I think it is well ballanced since if they plunge at LG+1 they are stuck there even if new updates make going to 15 or 20 significantly more powerfull.
