This is just sad...

I just ascended and what do i find...

1. I cant attack anything because you have to have at least 1/5 of the enemy size...
2. I cant trade my ascended points for power because i have to have 1/2 of the capacity...
3. I cant upgrade anything because i have no power...

I created 1 attack planet and 2 spy planets thinking i can at least start farming and i cant do anything...

Am i missing something, some way to get my ascended points to boost start a bit?

You can trade your APP, just go to cosmic trade (third from the bottom of the side bar) then go to the bottom and 'convert APP'

Ascended Life Force 220 / 4,654

1,066,219 Ascension Points Available. Will return 3,125,620,999 Ascended Life Force


You need to be at at least one half of your Ascended Life Force before you can tap into your Ascension Points...The conversion is difficult, and you do not want the efforts to descend you now!

Is this what you ment?

Edit: I did get to turn 19 attack turns to 19M dark matter so its not all bad... but it will probobly take like 2 weaks just so i can start attacking :( on original server in 2 weaks a was almost ascending

Yes. Dont know why but i got 17 turns in one turn :S and traded for 17M dmu
and used it on planet produtction. My life force also jumped from 220 to 340 in a turn. I guess i was just to impatient. Tnx for youre reply.

First 10k planets is the hardest, after that it only gets easier. It should be 3 days max till you can farm. Just keep converting Life force to dmu and building fleets and charisma levels. The 1/5 rule is an unfortunate side effect of a misguided update that screws over noobs on the server.

And farm randoms even if you don't think you can spy them. No one down there over rank 3000 is active unless they are like you and 2 days old. Farm whoever and whatever you can.

Have you tried converting turns into DMU and then converting DMU into APP? Should work and allow you to spend your APP. Before you start clicking buttons I suggest you load a long playlist into your preferred music device.

Charisma... Charisma... Charisma... is how you should spend most of your points. Boosting attack and covert will assist you in future farming endeavors.

Personal combat skills shouldn't interest you as you are immune from personal attacks for 30 or 60 days.

Maximum Natural Energy Capacity will help you grow a bit long term. Spend lots of DMU on your fleets.

Use Kvarga's ascended calculator and you can answer some of your own questions and experiment without cost.

Most importantly, have fun with ascended. You should get many more turns per turn at a low rank, so don't be too quick to start having stats.
