it would be nice if you already have , lets say a crimson obelisk on your ship , if you use another you reset the timer instead of it giving you an error , same with abilitys ( trellith influence etc)

The problem is, some people would be able to stay buffed in perpetua which takes away an semi-effective indicator as to whether that person is online or not. That can have a negative effect when planning an invasion when the person is guarding.

Its not like someone would force them to constantly buff up darth, it would be a rather huge downside to doing that so you couldnt stay buffed up 24/7 so +1

Crimson Obelisk (Uses Left: 1506) After recently giving 1000 to our junior legion. @ 2 hours per, that's 125.5 days. And I get more than 12 more every day.

Crimson Amplifier (Uses Left: 382) That's 127.33 days. And I get more than 3 more every day.

Shield Amplifier (Uses Left: 255) That's only 42.5 days. But I just sold a bunch and I get more than 6 more every day.

I'm an insomniac. Don't tell me I can't be buffed 24/7.

You should learn to read what people are typing. Nobody said anything about forcing someone to stay buffed. I'm merely pointing out that some people CAN be buffed 24/7 and how that would be a negative for their foe. Perhaps you can point out how there is a "rather huge downside" for me to be buffed constantly?

well if your guarding a planet i would know right away if you was still online or not also if in a BT hit or counter attack likewise granted.... that would be both a good thing and bad thing depending on how you view it .-.

No, you wouldn't know right away. I've had the enjoyment of sitting back and watching people much higher rank than me spend 700-800 points of energy just with well timed shield restorers and repair nanos while I appeared to be offline. Rather amusing I must say.

And as always, you ignore the question. How is it bad for me to be constantly buffed?

A containment missile will wipe them all, giving the game away if they rebuff. As such, there is little abuse to be done. +1

i was thinking just have each on reset the timer to 2 hours or its max not stack the time . Like in rpg when u cast your spell it just fulls the gauge .

Indeed , you can just attack someone to set of a trap and post "can you CM me please" on their comm

...or if it is to stack, it is only doable with say 5% of the timer left or less

Either way, I like it +1
