Hey everyone,

I was wondering when you ascend do you have to play the ascended server? If you dont play the ascended server does it have infringements on main?

Thanks

You can become descended or dormant and you will lose some bonuses. The best thing to do if you dont wanna play it is just go onto your ascended account once a day and use your generated resources. thats all. But you shouldnt dis it until you tried it. I didnt like it at first but its not to bad once you get the hang of it.

well you lose 50% of your ascended bonuses... which is quite a bargain considering you keep the weapons and that's by far the most important part of being ascended.

you should give ascended a try. I thought the same at first and even when i saw ascended I said HELL NO! but its not that bad now.

I'm not 100% sure about this one but what if he didn't create any exploration fleets? No exploration fleets -> no expansion -> no DMU created -> account just sits there and nothing really happens to it, it's not on vac mode so he should be able to keep all bonuses.

OK,,, first off if you never log into it, it can never be touched. Secondly never playing it is an option but leaves you able to be deascended.

You don't have to ascend to get SS, you can trade 1000 G&R for SS and not ascend.

i guess if you want the LG title, you'd have to play both accounts :(
