 So somehow my planet got taken AFTER I Fluxed it. I KNOW I fluxed it before the other guy had a chance to take it back because I fluxed it immediately after taking it back. But somehow my records show that 15 minutes after I took it (and fluxed it) the very same planet got hit with a Quantum Bio-Vaporizer! Ship's Log wrote: 1 hour, 46 mins ago

And speaking on the same topic, why is it that taking your own planet back in less than an hour after it was taken resets it's production bonus? That just pisses me off.

The Legion alert only lasts so long, that's why he hit you again right after you used the flux, if you managed to keep it for a few hours it would be safe for sure. It seems to keep the system in line so people don't steal a planet, then pay for an artifact to keep it from a much more powerful legion

If it was an in game available item still I wouldn't have so big of a problem with it, but it's $5 of real money (or worth of Offers completed) that they spent on an item that doesn't fully do what it promised.

You need to arti it up.. put up all defense after you flux you should have immune it and the bio would have never happen.. get some people to defend it buy the time the immunity wears off you have the planet... never attack someone when you just took a planet...

Ok, I've had a planet taken from me before and when it was fluxed, it was fluxed right off my newsfile. I couldn't go back to it at all. Are you saying that if a planet is being attacked and then an alert is sent out, the alert will still be visible post-flux?

The alert last 12 hours not 8. And yes it used to be that the flux removed EVERYTHING about that planet, but people where complaining about how OP it was. So now Dan made it where if the player can get an alert out on it before it's fluxed, the alert will still stand and the planet can be targeted from it that way. As it is, a supprise attack against a planet with a passed invade roll, immediatly fluxed, can still be quite devistating, often resulting in the invading and fluxing of a planet before an alert can be sent. But for a planet like that that you have been fighting over for a while, expect there to be existing alerts out. You need to have your legion IMMEDIATELY start guarding the planet and tear down all production structures and build pop and defense structures on the planet, buff it with all the arties you can and last buff it with a planet vortex deflector, which will make it immune to artifacts, which also makes it so the defenders can't be warped away.
