Planet Upgrading & PPT

[Scenester]

1) How do you use this one '' You have used 0 PPT bonuses this week.''
How do you go on PPT?

2) Is there any tutorial on upgrading planets?
What would be the best way to do so, keep them small get lots of increases and then upgrade or otherwise? Should you always keep them of less size or go to mind blowing right away?


( I have ascended several times but never really got deep into these matters nor have ever gone on PPT lmao )

Thank you,

PPT is straight forward.

Simply exchange your resources in the drop down bars below for 1/2 of supporter status and make sure you select 2 multiples at the bottom.

I will normally opt for UU. It's the cheapest means.

Can't help you with planets. I don't bother with them.

1) you can trade X resource for 1/2 market supporter and you trade at an increment of 2 and it will give you 2 days of PPT.

2) as for planets i upgrade the productivity while they are small then upgrade the size because it will get a bonus to productivity with each size increase. also def is cheaper on a smaller planet.

Put your def on the planet first.. Then upgrade to mindblowing.. It will cost less to get it to the size you wish!!

So just upgrade, add defence to max, upgrade again, untill it has the biggest possible size and then start spending naq on increasing its stats?

Planet defense costs are higher the bigger the planet, going up in increments of 10,000,000 per defense each size. It is best to max them out on smaller sizes if you are building them.

Planet stats are cheaper on bigger planets as each stat upgrade gives you more stats, but the stats also increase with the size. It can be a little confusing.

Easiest to use UP planets as an example.
Tiny = 1 UP per upgrade
Small = 1.1
Normal = 1.2
Above Average = 1.3
Large = 1.4
Huge = 1.5
Monstereous = 1.6
Mind Blowing = 1.7 UP per upgrade.

So to get a tiny planets production from 1, to 100,000 would require 99,999 upgrades.
But for a Mind Blowing, it only needs 58,824.

But if you did 58,824 upgrades on a tiny planet (which gives a UP of 58,824) and THEN increased the size to mind blowing, the production on the planet would increase to 100,000/day. Meaning you can get the same benefit, for the same cost but only after increasing the size.

Other planets follow the same stats pattern, but with different ratios.

Hope that helps.

Interesting calculations, and useful all the same but if I may interject where UP planets are concerned - they are only really useful if you're a top level player and are suffering with the crippling plague ratios.

To inject 'x' amount of naq into 10 X 100k UP planets for example is nothing more than a wasteful risk if you consider that 1m UU can be raided in little under a minute provided you haven't exceeded the raid cap and calculate your rank accordingly along with weapon repair costs (use 1 weapon for the best results).

I really fail to see why the 'younger' players in the cosmos hold planets (UP ones in particular) with so much regard.
