Are planets worth it...?

This may have been a poll before... but here goes.

Are planets worth it?

I know people who put lots and lots of effort into building amazing UP + Strike planets, but at the end of the day they can be massed and taken alot easier than they can be built...

So, to what degree are they worth it? If at all?

In my opinion, theyre only worth it if you save up a large ammount of naq ahead of time, then dont upgrade them at ALL until the def is in the 10bil+ Range.

And dont upgrade them to anything too good til you have their def in the 20bil+ range.

Past that, once it gets large enough to be extremly useful, make sure that the def is up to the 30+bil range, and work on getting it higher often.

whats an unbeatable defence?

i had a 10k UP planet about 2 months back with over 14 bil def on it as well.
i forget how much naq that cost me but it was ALLOT!

the def was massed and the planet taken, i couldnt be arsed to fight over it so i let it go.

all this struck me as very strange coz it would have been cheaper for the attacker to have taken someone elses planet as mine was large...

so trying to build up planets going by the mentality of a massive def will keep it safe and making the planet large or massive in size doesnt work!

14bil is a massable planet def. During the CoP/CIA war many larger defs fell.

Planet defs stay cheaper for longer, whereas fleets cost more and more via hanger capacity.


Get planet def to around 30+bil and few people can take them.

And unbeatable defence is one that is 5x the size of the biggest fleet or more. as you can only hurt a planet defence if its less than 5x your fleet. And as Tok'ra said, planet defences are cheaper then fleets. I know of a few people who get about 4mill UU a week, most from untakeable planets.
