Now, given the fact that you have 48 hours to use the weapon once it enters your realm and it takes 24 hours to enter the realm of the person being hit, that is a maximum of five days between hits. So you would need a minimum of six accounts just using the weapon on each other and probably at least ten, just to be sure. Frankly, I don't mind giving up some income to help others in the game. But I would rather there weren't such a thing as the super weapon in the game or if it were less "broken". I have a few ways in which the weapon can be fixed.
1.) Remove the weapon from the game completely. It is broken and is designed as a "Screw the top accounts" weapon.
2.) Make the damage fixed (not a fixed percentage but a fixed amount). Destroying ALL weapons, regardless of how many you have and 5% of all planets, regardless of how many you have and untraining all the rest of your planets, regardless of how many you have is absolutely a "screw you for playing so well" update. Or make the damage based upon the strength of the account using it ie. if someone with 5 million planets hits me with the weapon, they can destroy 5% of 5 million planets or 250K planets. They could destroy a number of weapons equal to the number that they currently possess. And they could untrain a number of planets equal to their planet total - 5%. That is something that I could live with.
Whether the rest of you could live with it if I hit you with the weapon is something else entirely.
3.) Put a damage cap on the weapon. Jason, I know you are all about damage caps. Lord knows I have to put up with a a lot of them that are NOT in my favor (ie. descension). How about a damage cap on the ascended super weapon that is in my favor? It does X% of your planets up to X amount of planets at 10 million planet size or 20 million planet size. But the damage has to stop somewhere. Me losing 5 million planets when someone else only loses 250K is ridiculous, unfair, and just downright mean to people who have worked hard to obtain a position of power only to be deballed at every turn.
Well we can get together and come up with enough people if need be. Your call mate.
I also agree with you on having the power of the weapon be tied to the power of the relm using it(except in the case of a relm that has just been destroyed with it. That relms power should be the power level before it was destroyed)
Overall this idea is broken.
IF you are a low ranking player and you get the weapon if you don't care about the game and you use it on an account that is an active playing account then whats fair about that???
IF you are an active playing account and get the SW your not going to be stupid enough to use it on anyone bigger then you as them and their friends will simply deascend you and sit on you from now on. Since you will never be able to grow and they can deascend you every 30 days whats the point?
I definitely agree the idea is broken.
