There are ways to maximize the productivity of your planets, both by increasing resource richness and planet size.

Contents

General

1) Colonize the best planet you can in terms of size and resources.
2) Maximize its size to very massive.
3) Maximize its resources to 20x megarich (21x artifact with the Morphogenic Enhancer artifact).
4) Use planetary transformation artifacts to get a 23x megarich Colossal planet, 24x megarich via the use of the Luminous Sub-Frequency Lens ability provided by the Bahreen race.
5) Maximize your passive defense/cloak via artifacts.

Planetary Size

Quasi-Spacial Expanders (QSEs) are the most commonly used artifacts to increase planet size. QSEs can drop from disabling Dark Mass-Carriers and T.O. Troop Carrier NPCs, but are notoriously rare. They are more often purchased from the Artifact Market for Galaxy Points.

Even richness across all 3 resources (Terraformer Prep)

The Terraforming Device can not be used on a planet once the richness of ANY of its planetary resources are 15x megarich or greater. Thus, by increasing any lower resource richness values until they match the highest resource richness value of the planet, you can ensure that you get the maximum benefit from using each relatively rare Terraforming Device.

To even out the planetary richness,

Artifact Richness up to 15x Terraformer Limit

Mining Richness up to 15x Terraformer Limit

  • use the Mylarai Enrich ability up to 15x megarich
  • use a Toxic Purifier up to 15x or 16x megarich if it is a Toxic or Irradiated planet

Research Richness up to 15x Terraformer Limit

2x Megarich across all 3 resources

3x Megarich across all 3 resources

4x Megarich across all 3 resources

5x Megarich across all 3 resources

6x Megarich across all 3 resources

7x Megarich across all 3 resources

13x Megarich across all 3 resources

    • NOTE: You can use two more terraformers to get your Mission Exotic to 15x richness across all 3 resources, and one Quasi-Spacial Expander to make the planet very massive.

Kronyn Data Cubes

For further maximization, you can use Kronyn Datacubes to continue to boost the research richness up to 88x megarich. Each player only gets 6 Kronyn Cubes, so one has to find sufficient players willing to give up their cubes for this kind of effort.

Maximum Rift Planets

Each player only gets 3 rift artifacts, so deciding when to use them is a critical decision. To make the best use of them, you should use the Subspace Fissuron on the best planet you can find (e.g. a natural dyson with more than 24x artifact richness) or the best planet that you can build.

But before you build your perfect planet, you want to make sure that you have all your ducks lined up. Any planetary artifacts or effects that give bonuses to production should be considered, and possibly installed before rifting if this will ensure maximum benefit. Some considerations:

Reality Transfuser

  1. planetary rings: +20% all production
  2. advanced civilization ruins: +20% artifact production
  3. large moons: +20% space
  4. small moons: +10% space

the first 3 are all decent effects, and the large moons effect would boost the eventual 81-space MC rift planet to 97-spaces (scales as the planet increases in size). However, if you get the small moons effect, you can use a Reality Transcender artifact to turn the small moons into Large Moons and ultimately Luminous Moons. Since the bonus gained from the artifact is variable(Between 25 and 30%), you would ideally want to rift those planets that had gained a 30% bonus for the maximum benefit.

Pre-Rift Planet

Reviewing the richness section, the best planet that a player could build themselves would currently be a planet with 24x megarich artifact, 23x megarich mining, and 23x megarich research created by:

  • M icy, desert, toxic, or terra planet with 19x megarich artifact, 20x megarich mining, 20x megarich research
  • use a Morphogenic Enhancer (and getting the +2 artifact richness instead of the +1 richness or +1 size) to get a M desert, toxic, or terra planet with 21x megarich artifact, 20x megarich mining, 20x megarich research
  • use a Quasi-Spacial Expander or N-Dimensional Compressor on the desert or barren to make that planet VM, then use the Luminous Sub-Frequency ability to get a C planet with 24x megarich artifact, 23x megarich mining, 23x megarich research
  • NOTE: The current ABSOLUTE BEST USE of a subspace fissuron on a non high-rich Dyson world is on a 24x Megarich Luminous planet that was made Luminous from a 21x Terra world that has 2 adaptive spires placed on it for the +2 artifact bonus PLUS has the 2% artifact bonus from using a Chuhn Exo-habitability probe.

Rift Planet Using only 6 Kronyn Data Cubes

  • use a Subspace Fissuron to get a MC rift planet with 39x megarich artifact, 38x megarich mining, 38x megarich research
  • use 6 Kronyn Data Cubes to get a MC rift planet with 39x megarich artifact, 38x megarich mining, 44x megarich research

Rift Planet Using maximum Kronyn Data Cubes

  • use 66 Kronyn Data Cubes to get a pre-rift planet with 24x megarich artifact, 23x megarich mining, 88x megarich research
  • use a Subspace Fissuron to get a MC rift planet with 39x megarich artifact, 38x megarich mining, 103x megarich research

Post-Rift Considerations

Since your rift planets will likely be your very top producers, here are some artifacts and effects to consider that provide %production boosts:

A question that is hotly debated is, do you give up planet size for faster planet completion? Primarily, this is related to transforming gas planets into plasmas. Should you take 45 days to boost the gas planet from zero artifact production to 15x Mega? Or should you opt for a lesser sized planet, but one that could reach 15x Mega sooner? I think you should the second option. If I get an awesome planet in 32 days instead of 45 days, then that is 13 days of extra production I am getting; not to mention the fact that I am now 13 days closer to finishing a second planet.

Desiring speed over planet size would mean my order of planet project preference is as follows:

1. Icy Very Large - Mass Surface Melter - Transforms an Icy world into an Oceanic world, enhancing its size 2 and all resources by 2 in the process. It will make a Very Massive planet with 69 spaces. You could also go with a Large Icy that becomes a Massive Ocean with 63 spaces. Assuming a starting point of Rich artifact either way, then it will take 19 clicks or 32 days to perfect this planet. As tempting as it may be, ignore the Average sized Icy.

2. Ocean Massive (natural scan) - Assuming a starting point of Rich artifact, then it will take 19 clicks or 32 days to perfect this planet.

3. Desert Very Large - Gamma Crystallizer - Transforms a desert planet into a Crystal world, enhancing its size by 1, and all resources by 2. It will make a Massive planet with 63 spaces. Assuming a starting point of Rich artifact, then it will take 19 clicks or 32 days to perfect this planet. As tempting as it may be, ignore the Large sized Desert.

4. Metallic Very Massive (natural scan) - Assuming a starting point of at least Average artifact, then it would take 24 clicks or 40 days to perfect this planet.

5. Gas Very Massive - Phasic Chain-Ionizer - Transforms a gas planet into a Plasma world, enhancing its size by 1, research by 2, and defense by 300. Research: Rich. It will make a Colossal planet with 75 spaces. It will take 45 days to perfect this planet.

6. Barren Very Large - Planetary Sentiox - Transforms a barren planet into a Sentient world,Boosting its size by 1 and all resources by 2.Sentient worlds also provide 700 natural attack and defense. It will make a Massive planet with 63 spaces. Assuming a starting point of at least Average artifact, then it would take 24 clicks or 40 days to perfect this planet.

7. Barren Very Large - Octafari Hydroshifter - Transports vast quantities of water from an existing Octafari world, transforming a barren planet to an oceanic, and increasing its size and all resources by 1. It will make a Massive planet with 63 spaces. Assuming a starting point of at least Average artifact, then it would take 24 clicks or 40 days to perfect this planet.

8. Volcano Very Large - Thermionic Intensifier - Transforms a volcanic planet into a Demon world, enhancing its size by 1, attack by 800, and all resources by 1. This would create a Massive with 63 spaces. Assuming a starting point of at least Average artifact, then it would take 24 clicks or 40 days to perfect this planet.
