| Post subject: | Planet Question |
I have several good planets that i'd like to keep,Though I've heard tons of tips on how to defend them,Cloak them and flux,Or brick them and guard. I have a few questions? 1. If i do cloak and Flux them,How high of a cloak should i have? And should i just go cloak or also add defense/attack? 2. If I do Brick them,How high should the def/att be? 3. Should I add Pop. Structures on planets too? Thanks for the answers

Only cloak if you have very high cloak-mods researched. The point of uber-cloaked planets is that with 18k cloak, they can't be scanned. Bricking planets means you won't get that much production on them, making these planets redundant. I'd say at least 2 defense modules, 1-2 attack modules, and 1 pop structure. With this set-up, I can put 1 or 2 +10's on my planets. Bare in mind, that you should put 2 attack and 1-2 defense modules if your weapons are researched way beyond your shields. |

Structures on planets too? Thanks for the answers 1) if you cloak them, you need 18,500 cloak per planet to make them so no one else can find them. Any less than that and its not worth it. 2) No amount of defense will protect you... players always have a minimum of 10% invasion success... so, if youre invaded by a top 10 legion, more likely than not you are guarenteed to lose the planet. I personally keep maybe 7200-9600 defense on a planet after the legion bonus. 3) population structures are good for when you want to brick a planet and then flux it... i personally dont see a purpose to adding a population structure to a planet under massive size just for staying there. But, i'm not the best when it comes to utilizing population structures. So, im not sure if you should take my word on this one. |

At cloak structures,I'm on Anti-Tachyon Satellites. Shields are a little ahead of weapons(Obviation Barrier---Null Minefield) And for Pop i've got Trans-Core Hubs So the highest scan is 18k? I've heard it was over 20+? |

unless some new modules have been released since lone lycan's last update... i think its still at 18.5. it may be 18.6, but at that point i think we're just splitting hairs. |

I've failed on 4%and 1% yesterday and the day before respectively. |

So having cloak lower then that won't do anything at all? Currently on one of my Vault planets,It's 10k,So I should just ditch cloak and go for defense? |

I know Mojo311 has at least a dozen vault planets, and puts around 30k attack and defense on each |

Is 10k Scan common among higher levels? Seems a bit high to me |

i cant say for sure, because i cant find the thread about the maxed out ship, but i think 8500 scan is the 'normal' amount of scan players have without buffs. BUT players rarely scan for planets unbuffed. |

BUT players rarely scan for planets unbuffed. 9134 for non-explorers, unbuffed, with titanproxies can become 18538 if you switch to explorer and buff up properly http://www.galaxylegion.com/wiki/index.php/Scan_Blitz |

Cloak under 18.5k is still usefull. 2) Min invade is 1% 3) sounds about right. |
