MS can only do as much damage as your strike

[Hells__Angel]

Well... atm, if someone has 0 strike, and a 60bil strike on their MS/Command star, they will do 60bil damage when attacking.

What I am proposing is that you need to have a 60bil strike to put that MS stirke to the full use.

I have noticed that this could be seriously abused if it stays the way it is.

i thought it was only up to 50% on main so i would say make it only do a maximum of 50% of your strike

[Hells__Angel]

I think your right, I think CS' should play a larger part than that of a MS in main.

[Chris M]

My CS is better than my strike
it can inflict more damage than my strike power.
but with only 1 weapon armed, it cant do that much damage.

although when i tested it half a week ago it was tested with 1 turn. lol (i wanted to see if i could farm with 0 attack)

*goes to check with 15 turns*


EDIT:

The Orders Secret Weapon uses its Black Hole String to inflict 109,200,000,000 damage, destroying 16 Enegry Vortex Shields on Great Ori Mothership!
Blowing through the defenses, it also destroyed 30 Black Hole String Weapons!
Chris M's The Orders Secret Weapon infuses 1,369,685 additional attack power to the fleets that follow!

Great Ori Mothership uses its Black Hole String to inflict 25,200,000,000 damage, destroying 31 Enegry Vortex Shields on The Orders Secret Weapon!
It has exhausted all of its offensive power.




Chris M's forces of The Realm of Angel ruthlessly and relentlessly assult the worlds, fleets and populations of The Outer Reach, inflicting 2,739,370 damage .

my raw strike power was around 1mill. and my vastly superior CS didnt enfuse much power...

you need some sort of reasonable strike for the situation Hells_Angel was talking about to work.



EDIT 2:

this was the 1 turn test i was on about. still 1 weapon with raw power of 1mill

The Orders Secret Weapon and Supernova meet head on at the border of Terra!
The Orders Secret Weapon uses its Black Hole String to inflict 109,200,000,000 damage, destroying 21 Enegry Vortex Shields on Supernova!
Blowing through the defenses, it also destroyed 37 Black Hole String Weapons!
Chris M's The Orders Secret Weapon infuses 1,369,685 additional attack power to the fleets that follow!

Supernova uses its Black Hole String to inflict 31,080,000,000 damage, destroying 3 Enegry Vortex Shields on The Orders Secret Weapon!
It has exhausted all of its offensive power.

looks like you cant do much more than 130% extra damage with your CS than raw attack (not taking modifier into account)

[Hells__Angel]

Hmmm....

It might only be when personal attacking people. I have no strike and do like 50-60bil damage through my CS depending on the rank mod.

[Chris M]

lol not gunna waste turns doing that, but a friend recently deascended someone. i will ask her for the log/details

actually, now you bring that up i do remember being confused where all my power came from in ascended attacks on people. it might have been my CS.
if thats true, that does bring up a interesting point.

shame i deleted my test results from back then recently

note: i havent wasted turns attempting to deascend someone because i havent needed to, im only going by what others have said/test server stuff ages back

[Fallstar]

I'm pretty sure your CS doesn't help you attack another ascended being.
Only their CS and defense joins in to protect them I believe.
