Logged in this morning to find a stealth screen on an ice planet that I had planned on uplifting and melting somewhere down the road. Nice surprise. This made me wonder what the consensus was on what the best analysis results would be for a mega-colossal oceanic planet.

Would it be the 20% production bonus from rings, even though space would be taken up with cloaking/defense/etc.?
Would it be the 20% space bonus from large moons, so you could fit the cloak/defense/etc.?
Would it be a stealth screen so you can more easily make it invisible (assuming cloak ain't broke)?

What would you pick, and why?

I'd take any of them. But I'd say it depends on how much space you can save with the stealth screen for production. How much space you can use up with the moons again for production once you've reached the required cloak and how much extra production the arti boost gives you.

Yup... that's the big question. I'm not going to be able to max out passive cloak for a loooooong time, so at my current state, the space bonus would be more valuable. But if I were a more experienced and powerful player with access to more artifacts, I think the stealth screen would win out. Gotta do some more math to figure that one out, though...

Planetary Analysis Success! The planet reports that Large Moons have been discovered around the planet! Available building space has increased by 20%
For my MC 20x Ocean. I'm fine with Large moons as long as I don't get small moon for my important planets . Rings or Large Moons, you can never go wrong either of them.

With large moons you can get better production than if you had rings.

But if you are making nice planet after nice planet you will want rings instead because you simply run out of those size 1 arti 1 structures to cram on your colossal planets with large moons.

Question that has probably been answered here 400 times already:

What is the current maximum passive cloak you can have on your planet?

What are you smoking?

His own leaf

privious, the max pasisve cloak was around 3800 - 3900 the max you from Magnetosphere Charger
(as you could basickly use the Magnetosphere Charger on a planet with 3499 cloak, and get 3899 cloak)



one off my plasma planets have 3796 pasiv from the last Magnetosphere Charger boost




the new max is 5.000 cloak with Clandestine Revisions
(and again, you could proberly take the planet to 5.249 cloak, if you use one on a planet with 4999 cloak, but havent tested this for now, as I still need to compleet more legion missions to get the badges needed to buy a few Clandestine Revisions)




and your invinsible planets automaticaly get 10.000 Passive cloak - no matter how you make them invinsible

Thanks, DarkMar!

I think he means each different type of arti, without the limited arts there isn't enough different kinds of +1 arti....arti's to put on a planet

just using the drop from fab plants and magno. chargers you can get 3892 passive cloak.

I have a planet with 5500 passive cloak - used the Xecti Ensconcing Fields on it after it had 3100 from Fab Plants. Presumably could have gone higher, but I can't remember if the dark badge rewards existed at that time.

basickly you got these artifacts to boost cloak

Gift to the Void +40 cloak (max 500) from Scruuge Carrier / Scruuge Ravager (December-Exclusive)

Interspacial Fold Generator +100 cloak (max 3100) from Lazuli Fabrication Plant

15 Xecti Ensconcing Field + 80 cloak ( If used on a planet that has not been scanned by another ship, this bonus is doubled) (and not sure they have a max) from Xecti chain

Magnetosphere Charger +10% + 50 (cloak, attack or defence) - max 350 - from battle marked

Clandestine Revisions +250 cloak, max 5.000 from mission marked


with the Xecti Ensconcing Field you would be able to add +2400 cloak with those to any planet you had already maxed out with Interspacial Fold Generator + Magnetosphere Charger + Clandestine Revisions

that would give you a max cloak around 7650 now on one not invinsible planet, and 5250 on the rest



I know, just havent bothered maxing it as cloak is broken - think I used a few Gift to the Void on it and got it up to 3180 cloak or something like that, before I used the Magnetosphere Charger on it so ended up with 3798 cloak on it instead off 3892

I dunno if it works like this but if you have a MC with Rings it's 81 space with a 20% bonus but if you have a MC with L Moons (97 Space, I think) then you could put on an Intraphasic Hoveroid (5% All), the new Relic Badge Arti (5% All) Litheor Transmutative Locator (6% arti), Orbital Stabilizer (14% Mining )

I'm not too good at this game but I'm sure there are some more arti% bonus' out there so out of those artifacts you already get a 30% increase (16% artifact and 14% mining) I know there is the Xecti thing (10% res) the Extracted Stem thing (10% mining) and that's already more than 20% in some productions (maybe you're lacking in arti, but you have almost another Hyperforge from the extra space including the 81 from being MC)

Sorry if this makes absolutely no sense or if this isn't how it works, I don't know and I just took a stab in the dark. lol

Can't u use a transfuser on a planet that has a "Natural" ability, meaning since it has stealth screen and it is a natural ability, can't u use the transfuser to get say rings or moons ect...?

Yes... as long as the 1st permanent effect is natural, you can get the 2nd one from RT.

Yeah, but the planet can only be analyzed once. ie. So long as you get a natural without having to analyze (Stealth Screen, Lush Biosphere, etc.) you can get the analysis event with the transfuser. If you get the natural analysis, then it will not allow you to analyze again.

Is it possible to colonize a planet and get the subterranean caverns and sometime down the track, it gains a stealth screen then use a transfuser to get say rings ect...?

what is better on an invincible though? aka rift, mission dyson?
