Title: Station Killer
Post by: qe2eqe on October 03, 2008, 04:18:56 AM
On SO main right now, Dark Cloud just owned all my stations.
Just a rough guestimate, but he's got a ship that cost at least half a trill.

I don't get it!!

8 days ago, if he had infinite mothership resources, and 5 mining facilities running full credits, and he saved every penny, he could have pulled that off....

I don't get it!! Jeez I would have invested in cloaking if I thought it was remotely possible to lose a station

Are you talking about bare bone stations or stations that have been upgraded with high att or hp?

stations arent that hard to kill if you have a correct fleet for the job

Yeah, but attack and hitpoints end up costing at least 1.25 credit per point...

He needed at least 400  bill attack and 80 bill hp to pull it off.  Even with gold, that still costs almost 500 billion - - which is light years ahead of other players.
The biggest encounter other players are defeating at the moment is around 4 billion - and that's frikken exceptional - and you only need about 160 billion combined hp/attack to pull that off safely. This guy is more than twice that.

No way it was kamis - that would have been too expensive.

yea he killed one of mine aswell, it was more then likely kammis

to expensive how so?? with a kami a guy can hit you with a ship that has high hits, block ALL attack from the station then the kamis pick it off... your station dosnt even kill any of them cause it wasted all its firepower on the main... so in the end, its free.. or well 10% (reserve costs)

Ok, I wanna say this- some swarmers I've seen can take out 500 billion hp at around 150-200 billion cost of a fleet. Maybe he had one of those?

a station (even with 10% hitpoint & 5% absorb upgrade) can be easily destroyed at a cost of just over 25.2 billion credits without loss (without a gold account)

wrong

without knowing the proper set-up your single word response bares no merit

Title: Re: Station Killer
Post by: CrimsonSmear on October 11, 2008, 02:05:56 PM
it's not about how i would do, i have already done it on another server

as for the how, it's already been touched upon


Title: Re: Station Killer
Post by: Cameron07 on October 11, 2008, 03:39:11 PM
the attack and hp here is different than sea-o i dont think you could do it for 25 bil here


Title: Re: Station Killer
Post by: Lammalord on October 11, 2008, 04:32:41 PM
yah stations are ALOT stronger in spaceo crimson

25 bil is pretty much impossible lol


Title: Re: Station Killer
Post by: CrimsonSmear on October 11, 2008, 06:19:56 PM
what are the current station attack/hitpoints

i admit, i'm guilty of not being too interested in this server since recent changes


Title: Re: Station Killer
Post by: Lammalord on October 11, 2008, 06:21:42 PM
i think it is 1 trillion hitpoints... maybe less now...

last time i saw one i think it was 300 bil attack 1 tril hits


Title: Re: Station Killer
Post by: Cameron07 on October 11, 2008, 06:40:46 PM
80 bil atk 400 bil hp


Title: Re: Station Killer
Post by: CrimsonSmear on October 11, 2008, 06:41:44 PM
seems a bit excessive, but i suppose most of the recent updates fall under that same category

i'll take a look and have an updated value by tomorrow at the latest

total cost to take out 80 bil att / 400 bil hp station with 10% hp bonus & 5% abs is (drum roll).....


just under 101.8 billion without cp bonuses or gold account
