Title: Station and Planet absorbing Post by: Nephadral on February 18, 2010, 09:11:42 AM I am a little unclear about how my station is absorbing power. The space station where my planet is claims to have 115% absorb power. In attacking it myself, my 40 billion FP ship is able to do a small amount of damage, but all of the kami fleets attack is absorbed.
at the same time i have level 20 planetary shields (which should give me 100% absorb to my planet's ground forces). I doubt that this means that my colonists are indestructible, but I am unclear on how to determine exactly how much damage they will take and if it makes any sense to ever invest in more shields than i currently have. any insights would be greatly appreciated Title: Re: Station and Planet absorbing Post by: KenquinnTheInsaneOne on February 18, 2010, 12:55:14 PM I am a little unclear about how my station is absorbing power.

Nope its capped at 80% now it used to be that way but its not anymore as far as I can rememberat the same time i have level 20 planetary shields (which should give me 100% absorb to my planet's ground forces).

No there is no point in getting more then 16 planetary shields as 18 would give you 90% ASB which goes down to 80%Title: Re: Station and Planet absorbing Post by: Spayed on February 19, 2010, 09:07:59 PM yea 16 is all you should get, emi fixed the bug where you could have 100% abs along time ago :D
