unless you are going to abandon half of your planets ... that goal is definitely not do.able in 50 ranks. i have spent over a year with bainar and thraccti and i'm not even close to getting everything up to 3x arti, much less 3x across.

yeah don't think ill be able to accomplish that, but still a goal (actually not too bad on the artifact/research part, but the element tribute seems for me to be the least occuring)

research tribute is 40% .. the other 3 tributes are 20%.

LM Mods to complete:

Things to do within next 50 ranks:
Get Solynia to rank 100 (probably not going to happen without traveling)
Finish Litheor chain (just waiting for Chuhn to arrive to scrap for the necessary CTP)
Begin the next mission in the Ravyn chain (Intercepted Tarriance)

why do you own such a small amount of planets ?
Im almost half your rank and have almost the same amount of planets. It looks like you've always have a bunch of free planet slots open. ( about 30% of your slots were almost always unfilled)

I'm just wondering, at my rank you had 60% of the AP i had. But I've taken a lot of VL ER/ A 1X , which were great AP booster while i was lower in rank and at the time decent planets, but nowadays i do regret them, since they are making 150-200 AP and i would prefer 250-300 from each of my PP planets, to have the same AP as some of the higher rankers i see. That being said at my rank out ship were pretty similar .. not sure if you slow rank or what.

Also i enjoy reading your ship logs, our ship are very similar in growth and build.

The number of planets is low for a couple of reasons.

#1: Storage

Currently I cap at 7 hrs. For my own personal preference, I'd like to get to a minimum of 8 hrs (to allow for sleep) but any CTP I gain goes right into finishing up the Litheor mission chain I'm working on.

#2: Picky with my planet selection

Whenever I hit my 3 year and received Solynia, my qualifications for planet colonization/taking have changed drastically. I will only colonize unoccupied planets that meet the following qualifications:

VL 3x - 8x arti (pure production, cloak as necessary)
VL 9x - 20x arti (maximize cloak while still maintaining a high output of aph)
M 2x - 4x arti (pure production, cloak when possible, uplift other resources as available)
M 5x - 20x arti (maximize cloak, mix of production/defense/attack, uplift other resources as available)
VM MR+ (maximize cloak, mix of production/defense/attack, uplift other resources as available)
C ER+ (maximize cloak, mix of production/defense/attack, uplift other resources as available)
MC (dont care the resource stats, I'm jumping on this)

As for planets I'm willing to invade...the selection is even thinner.

VL 20x arti
M 5x arti
VM MR mining or artifact (these are what I ask for whenever I'm looking for invasion alerts
because they are the easiest/fastest to maximize production levels and protect)
C/MC anthing that has the mining and/or artifact resource higher than the research, although would prefer if the
mining was the highest resource because once again, will be easiest to maximize production levels and protect

#3: Not spending any $$

I play this game for free. I do partake in a couple survey sites that reward me with facebook giftcards every so often which has allowed me to make worthy purchases (allies, permanent % ship mods, permanent % planet structures) but otherwise I will not be dropping 5GP to abandon a subpar planet. Therefore, the planets I do decide to inhabit are in it for the duration.


I'm glad you enjoy reading my log. Hopefully my growth and decisions have been insightful to other newer / younger players. The main thing is to make sure you are having fun in whatever direction you want to lead.

Because Senator asked me to update....

Things to do:
Get Solynia to rank 100


Unfortunately, I've reached as far as I can go in the Ravyn chain at the moment due to the crazy deck size requirement. I've also pretty much switched my entire ship layout to being ready to scan for planets along with the few pieces of equipment that add helmsmen, energy, or scientists daily. Nothing much going on otherwise.

yeah, i decided to take the plunge in june. got thru the first mission of the corruption chain as well and got the 3 new visions. now that elios is here, i will double up on drills, but will keep working on corruption and sileena chains. will go back to doubling up on corruption after elios wraps up.

you're doing better than Peticks on a bunch of the charts .. but you will have to boost your arti per hour if you want to be able to maintain that.

tbh, im sort of burnt out from the game. there hasn't been any content of worth in quite some time. i went on vacation for a week and a half and didnt miss the game once. I'll probably log on infrequently to collect stuff and see if anything new pops up, but doubtful i'll be a full time player anymore. It was fun for many years, but it seems that time has past. Fly safe my friends.
