All right I need guidance LF to DMU or just buying with main

im opened to both sides and i want to know what is the best course of Action...i have no idea where to start

seriously if i do ascn i don't want to be deascnd in the first couple of days,
i wouldn't get to play much then anyways...everybody is telling me to get charisma and fleets ok fair enough ill go do that

But what about the left over stuff what else should i spend on or should i just leave it, as for personal stats what should i get to begin with?

hard question man it's just how you want to structure your account really if you want to just rely on yourself as a income source focus on def and covert, if you want to rely on other as your main source of income build on covert and attack

imo, I would never trade LF to DMU, it'd be better just to spend main naq and buy DMU. When you first ascend, you get a PPT so you have some time to get your account into order before worrying about getting deascended. Like you say, charisma and fleets should be your main focus. As far as the other stats, you want to work on your defense, covert and assassin power. Which you'd need to spend LF in upgrading the levels, but that alone would be useless without planets and DMU to train them, hence being somewhat limited by your fleets, CHAR, and PROD. As far as keeping from being deascend, work on your Energy Absorbtion Power and Skill, Energy Repulsion Strength, and Personal Constitution. And I'm not sure if it's better to have a really low MNEC and a rediculously high flow and channeling, or to have a really high MNEC and keep your reserves full.

Re: All right I need guidance LF to DMU or just buying with main

as a recommendation for your first ascension

I'm sure you have a huge base UP if your the SGC replicators I'm thinking of...

So you will get a lot of LF from your ascension...

I think you should aim for 250 charisma/production

then work on getting everything else to 200... see what LF you ahve left to spend... increase your charisma/production further if you have plenty of LF then increase your others...

if your concerned about being defended once you have upgraded your Life Force Maximum (your reserves which are hit when people try to descend you) you should convert some LF into LF Reserves before your 2 day PPT ends from your first ascension...

this should protect you and cover you for at least 3-4 hits (8-12 hours (4 hours per hit))

the rough idea I've given here should give you a well balanced account for defending your income etc...

what I'd recommend is to purchase some DMU with main naq or whatever so you can buy plenty of fleets to get your growth up too...


oh as another recommendation

your LF growth rate while at maximum (fills your reserves and cache with LF/turn should be higher too as this helps with your ability to gain LF in you cache at a quicker rate allowing you to improve your stats


but as I said this is a rough guide for a nice gentle introduction to the server :)

Re: All right I need guidance LF to DMU or just buying with main

SGC, how many APP are you getting from this ascension? This information would help in knowing how better to help you. Know that, the longer you delay your ascension, the more you are hurting yourself. If you are thinking of catching the top accounts, you are going to be sorely disappointed that you didn't ascend when the update first hit. Given the fact that you could have probably easily gotten to 100K fleets and 500 charisma when the update first hit, you would be making 21.5 million planets a day. I know that it seems like waiting just increases your APP more (and it does) but keep in mind that the top accounts probably make as much or more APP per day with their ascension accounts as you are about to take up. So, whatever your first ascension is, we are doing the equivalent of one of those EVERY day.

Re: All right I need guidance LF to DMU or just buying with main

as mojo said it would benefit to see your ascension screen so we know exactly what you ahve and perhaps areas where you can improve to get the most effective APP bonus

I recall from previous threads etc (a long time ago) you have over 100k base UP (probably easily by now)

that will give you about 1.6-17mill APP

not to mention your covert/ac levels and your supers/weapons/and UU requirements

your MS is safe from ascension now but you still get a few aPP from that...

but Mojo is a far better person to elarn from than me so probably best to bribe him with chocolate :)

Re: All right I need guidance LF to DMU or just buying with main

I wouldn't spend all your lf initially, mabye keep 50% back so you can get a feel of the server, don't keep it back too long though as you will fall further behind. :)

Also.. I wouldn't increase your max life force at all. It allows you to take more damage when people attack you. (Personal assault) Although you have to log on at least every 12 hours to make sure you are not descended... if you aren't going to piss off any super strong players you'll be better to mabye increase it a bit.
Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Stickin it to the man!

not saying this is the best layout or anything, but 50mil APP at the current conversion of 1250LF:1APP could get you:

LVL 600 charisma and production
LVL 300 in every other upgrade available
with ~3.8 billion LF leftover ;)

get your fleets up to 100k (cost ~10tril DMU or like a couple tril naq) and you'll be making 34.3mil planets/day

no, some time ago I was going to descend one guy, and it didn't allow me to hit, info was saying something like: he is too young here, he has 60day descension protection etc.
I'm guessing that he can do other stuff, he just can't be descended for those days
