Future Era Ascensions?
Posted: Fri Sep 03, 2010 6:17 am
I think the concept of this era is great, and would like to see the concept stay for future eras.
Although If ascensions are to stay the doubling per ascension is probably a bit too much, maybe a slight tweaking would be needed. So instead of doubling make it accumulative % increases, with the % decreasing per ascension?
level 1 = +100% to current power, income per unit, etc
level 2 = +95%
level 3 = +90%
....
level 20 = 5%
A person on level 20 will have ~3198x the power of a player with no ascension, which is a huge advantage but a little less than the current 8192x from level 13 doubling. It'll bring more strategy into which ascension levels are worthwhile as well.
Actually a more interesting increase would be if the percentages followed a curve:

or

Gives a total power/income increase of ~5016x (5860x with the second option) compared to 3198x with the decreasing % or 8192x at level 13 with the current doubling system...
Cutting down on the snowball effect a little bit in future eras might be a good idea, not too much, I like it, but a little bit...

I don't know, any other thoughts on this if ascensions become permanent?
edit: and being 20 levels admin could make it 3 ascension bonuses from SS purchases, gives him a bit more $$ to encourage further enhancements of Q
