Okay, so I just bought $50 today to make some Very Massive planets and to do some Reality Transfusions as well.

So first, I invade an enemy planet for a friend, bump it up to VM and transfuse it. I get a Small Moon. I think "wow, that sucks" and then I move on...

A couple hours later I go to Transfuse another planet that I recently obtained, and guess what? I got a Small Moon.

I then go try to transfuse 2 metallic planets and guess what? THEY BOTH GOT A SMALL MOON!!!!

Now that is 256 GP completely wasted on 4 planets that now are virtually useless and if I keep on getting a Small Moon every time I try to Transfuse a planet, I don't think I will be buying GP for much longer.

A Reality Transfuser is an item you can only obtain through a purchase of GP (and I know how much you love when people buy GP) so why not keep your GP players happy and remove the damn Small Moon!? No one likes them anyways! At least remove them from the Reality Transfuser, you can keep them in the natural transfuse.

Thank you for hearing me out,
Topherousenator

It's completely random, NOT broken. I've had Planetary Rings six times in a row now, so if that's possible then it should also be possible to get Small Moons six times in a row.

Yep, you'll be alright. Just keep buying more GP.

33% ^ 4 = 1,23456789% chance

(Transfusers -> Ring, Small, Large Moon, right ?)

Just like failing invasion at 90% twice (I believe we've all experience it :P )

Only twice? i've had 6 in a row (not considering a 84% fail in between)

Rings, Small moon, Large Moons and Ruins

and I have a pretty even spread across my planets.


just curious I only transfuse Arti planets but I know some have transfused research and mining has anyone got ruins on those? ruins are 20% to Arti only that could be a bigger downer than a small moon.

Yeah, it has happened. Not a big deal, as arti is the stat that will be getting uplifted to 15x over time, anyway, but it still causes me to do a little doubletake from time to time when I see it. As far as I know, the only way you can guarantee no ruins is to transfuse a planet with 0 arti production whatsoever (e.g. Gas), so I suppose you could transfuse a 16x mega Demon with Very Sparse arti production and get ruins. I don't know why somebody would use a RT on a Demon, but in that case, getting ruins would definitely suck your soul away worse than a small moon.

Do you guys have a clue how many times the RNG gets fed? Each person doesn't have their own personal RNG, everyone shares the same one. Every time someone claims a daily reward, RnG. Every time someone clicks Scan on a planet run, RNG. Every time someone clicks the Invade button, RNG. Every time someone analyzes a transfuser effect, RNG. Every time someone claims artifacts, RNG. Every time someone clicks Attack (be it on a planet, person, base or flamehawk), RNG. The sheer volume of RNG calls in a given time period practically guarantees "anomalies" like 6x 90% failed invasions.

Yeah, but are you wasting GP by failing invades? I didn't think so...

This is good, hard earned money I am wasting on Reality Transfusers that only drop Small Moons for me, and if it keeps up, I won't be spending anymore money on GP.

Just transfused another planet... small moons. I am now officially done spending GP on this game. Good Job...

I have 2 planet trades left that require transfusers, I will finish those and then retire.

I'm not spending another penny on this game again...

[EDIT] You should satisfy your GP customers... or else they choose to take their money elsewhere.

Not saying you didn't have crap luck
Nor am i saying you should buy more GP

My transfusers are generally fairly evenly spread out in type, but the most i have are small moon...

which are still 10% in size increase, while the worst of the 4 options, still not bad

Maybe a 2nd type of transfuser?

Mini Reality Transfuser
Cost: 30 Galaxy Points
Effects: Small Moons/Ruins


The original one would lose the chances of getting Small Moons and Ruins.

Thoughts?

But why is it even in there? We're paying money... just to get a crappy effect. It just doesn't make any sense.

"Reality Transfuser
Allows the planet to be analyzed to unlock a permanent random effect on it.
Can only be used planets that do not already have such an effect."

"Random" is the key word. We are paying money for the chance, not for the guarantee. Would be unfair for you to complain and get what you wanted, and all those other people that have bought RT's not to get the same treatment.

I'm not entirely sure, but I hear there's a possibility that a Reality Transfuser will give nothing at all. If this is the case, then you're lucky that you're getting anything at all.
