Unless admin changed AC power since I stopped playing, AC power = Cov +1. So if you have AC level 28, it would be the equivalent power of Cov 29.

Try:

4t-strike
4t-def
12T+ covert
400bil+MS

it got me to rank 120-130

and i got 5 points every turn...

this was last week though.

Good Luck

Been 2 levels for as long as I can remember, which makes it double the power.

We then get a multiplier based on your anti-covert level. It is the square root of (2 to the power of (your level+2) ).

4tril strike
4tril defence
1tril MS
12tril Covert

Got me to about rank 110 -120 on pretty much my entire run to Unamed.

i've been ascending every 2 weeks for the last...omg forever (I started 2 weekly ascentions in July and I ascend again tommorrow, then one more and i am done)

my advise is this, your mothership is pretty much a fixed stat, too expensive to increase the weapons/shield capacity just to ascend, so if its 500 bill...its 500 bill.

your attack should be roughly 1/3 of your defense, because the best way to increase rank is to have all stats equal (trust me i've tried att/def 50/50...) i do 2.5 T attack, 7.5 T def, utilise mercs here too. And as many UU as you can beg, steal or borrow, trained as AC level 28/29 because as has been said, an AC is 50% higher ranked than a covert.

edited to add, I just finished a rough guide to ascending, for the DDE Empire forum, so if anyone wants a copy, grab me on msn and i'll send it in a document xxx aku-lizzy@live.co.uk

thanks again for the tips

If you are wanting to increase the power of your MS what adds more power? I haven't added fleets because I will lose them when I ascend, however my shields/weapons are at 25k/30k for a rough total of 140 billion power.

Would training a bunch of fleets be the cheapest way to gain MS power or should I continue on the path I am. I am trying to get to the 5 G&R points and its my MS that is killing me right now.

I am at rank 219 right now, but my MS is ranked a cool 1075, so that is clearly killing me here.

thanks.

train your fleets, you get 90% refund when you sell them, but remember, its not a good idea to have them there if you are not on ppt, cos some idiots will mass your mothership just for the ME!!

welcome back man
