Good Morning All!
I have three Toxic Purifiers (and probably soon a fourth once my repair recharges against this current Blade Harvester), but no Toxic planets under my control, so I was wondering:
Does a Toxic Purifier change the planet type when used? I ask because I thought I remembered hearing of some artifact that would increase the resources of an Icy but also change it to an Oceanic (I am guessing so that you could not use the artifact on the planet multiple times) and I was wondering if this artifact worked along the same lines, though maybe not as powerful. If it does not change the type, can it be used multiple times on the same Toxic planet?
Spoiler Alert Below about what a Toxic Purifier does (I am not forum-skilled enough to know how to "blank" things out so that you can only see them when highlighting them):
Toxic Purifier - Permanently increases the mining output of a Toxic planet by 2. [edit: not share-able or send-able]
Thanks for reading!

I have used one on a toxic planet and it remained a toxic planet. Therefore I am guessing that you could use several TPs on the same planet.

I have a 7x mega rich toxic. It went from extremely rich to 7x in one day.

Yep. It only boost 2 level of resource.. i.e. 1x mega rich to 3x mega rich per TP.. It doesn't change anything to a planet other than enriching the mineral production. I have no idea what the max you can achieve? 15x or greater?

When I first got this off of a blade harvester I only had one toxic planet and it had a better artifact bonus than mineral. The next planet I colonized was a toxic specifically for these. It was vLarge but only had average bonus to mining wich is perfect. I've already raised it to vAbundant. With it being a large I can build plenty of structures on it and as I farm more TP's and as I use TP's on it eventually it will have a VERY nice mining bonus.

so can you go beyond the 15x terraforming limit with this?

Based on what i've heard, it's possible to find planets up to 48x - or you can invade one that a player created before the limit was imposed. But you cannot now go beyond 15x if you use artifacts.

I'm absolutly thrilled with a 15X mega rich cap on planet transformation. IF anyone has a problem with this please notify me of your planet locations and I'll be more than happy to relinquish you of them.

It went from extremely rich to 7x in one day. not exactly in one day, but I had a toxic in the lower batch of occupied planets and it went from extremely abundant to X1 mega rich so far. Great artifact _________________ I have suggested 7 Races, 5 Organizations, 3 locations, 3 materials, and 20 planets. View my profile interests for a full list.
