Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

Potential flaw in giving last ascension UP.

I better not lose my 1.4mil+ APP, that's from my last 2 ascensions i've been saving it because i knew the rate would increase. my last ascension was a 40k UP and the one before that was 50k. :( but since i did not convert i don't think i should get extra!!

Also some people might have made a 100k+ prior UP, then did 1k up ascension until LG+1. i don't think anybody should get APP back from their last ascension otherwise it could be very unfair to some of the more planned ascensions.

Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

4) If you wish to DESCEND YOURSELF - ie 'quit ascension' .. you can. You will become a 'Daimon' - basicly a fallen divinity...This is the only race open to fallen ascendeds who chose their own demise...The bonuses are: whatever your ascended account had at the time of banishing yourself, MINUS the ascended blessing (so no unique tech to this race.) You maintain full bonuses in att/def/income/cov and your weapon strengths...From this race, you can choose a fully mortal race, or keep this race. No other options.

The way this reads to me is that once you decide to become one of the fallen divinity your only chance of re-ascending would be to become a fully mortal race once again and start all over again with the bonuses. In that regard it would seem balanced since the Daimon race cannot ascend again but they are still slightly more advanced then the mortal races since they were once ascended afterall. Thats just my take on it.

Good job with the updates Jason.

Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

cost before, cost after, around level 500 give or take 20%, is close enough....
i am willing to call this acceptable grey area between those that 'spent so much on the old level costs' and the newer cheaper level costs... if you got to 500+ on the old costs, keep em :)
this will not affect game balance enough to redo the 'tipping point' on the new system... arguably, it will not affect game balance...
but we have 10 days to see what others say on that matter :)

Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

still dont think people should have got app from their last ascention but i guess i can live with it

maybe just giving everyone a mil app or two would have been better

Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

I'm by no means a big player on ascended..in fact a relative noob who just did some big ascensions.

Thanks for the much cheaper levels.
Charisma for example, level 101 dropped from 1.3 mil LF to a little over 200K

What does concern me is the loss of effect for each of the other levels, my stats have all fallen by up to 30%

ie I had a 2.2 bil covert and now it's only 1.5 bil, same across the board. 40 bil+ defense is now only a little over 30....that hurts

Re: changes in ascension/main going to production

Jason what about the PPT question.


I have 10 days of ppt remaining. If you were to ascend right now would the current ppt stand or would it revert to the standard 2 days you get with an ascention?
