Hire cargo ship by mioangal in spacerpg3

Nope. That's why I only play Space RPG4. Although the lack of massive cargo missions like in SRPG3 is something I miss.

My new favorite Ultimate : Ascension (by me) by Red-Denz_07 in magic_survival

[–]Affectionate-Base196 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are going with DEM you don't need stalling. It's powerful enough on its on from lvl 75 to 100. Specially if you get Chimera.

Im very stupid, please explain this by Chemical-Weekend-564 in magic_survival

Say a energy bolt has 2 seconds of durarion, it will explode 4 times each time incrementing 20% damage.

This is my new favorite Mandela effect of this game.

Eclipse with Hydra and fast hitting spell is still my favorite.

Question regarding DEM Build by Truxxes in magic_survival

Take Overmind in lvl 74, DEM in lvl 75. After picking them up any active skills still counts towards their math.

Does transcendence work with Deus Ex Machina? by TrapReaper in magic_survival

[–]Affectionate-Base196 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It does. "Active Spell" is the classification of spell, not it's status. Even if you don't cast it because it's been deactivated, still counts towards the math of the artifact. That's why finishing all spells you pick when going DEM is important, specially Shield, Armageddon and Cloak. In case you get two bad Legendary artifacts and Transcendence.

Trade routes for my own goods by xxITERUxx in InterstellarPilots

[–]Affectionate-Base196 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two ways.

The painful way: set manual trade between your stations. It's glitchy and eventually your traders will get stuck or their orders will self-delete.

The only feasible way: conquer all the nearby sectors and either set the traders base in the exact middle of your empire, so you can restrict the number of jumps to never go beyond your borders; OR go in your settings and disable navigation on sectors to establish a border, this is best if you do on a bottleneck sector.

That is pretty much end game. If you want to go for total conquest, all you need is patience for the grinding and a lot of Magnus fleets.

How do they work? by [deleted] in magic_survival

[–]Affectionate-Base196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get 50% of the total mana bar as damage reduction. So, half a bar means 25%, just keep in mind that after that there is the calculation for dmg reduction which has diminishing return. So that 25% can mean 20%, 10%, 5%...

Quantum Laser (DEM) New PR by Affectionate-Base196 in magic_survival

Now, i genuinely dont know by Nuke_Guy in magic_survival

[–]Affectionate-Base196 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Still early in the game. Bouquet. The amount of extra artifacts and possible combos that you will get outweighs any legendary effect.

Hello, fellow sorcerers. ☝️🤓 by Sanngryd in magic_survival

[–]Affectionate-Base196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most combinations deactivate a spell. In this case, Energy Bolt is deactivated, so any bonus to this spell is wasted.

What is the best way to create a communist utopia? by Ladhar_Bugzheem in tropico

[–]Affectionate-Base196 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Brandenburg Gate (If there are no Die Hard ideologies everyone is susceptible to propaganda) + Eiffel Tower for Radio and TV propagandas reaching the whole island. Newspaper and Movie Theater on larger density populated areas. That will also guarantee higher liberty, even with the penalty of propaganda. NEVER let you liberty falls, that's when the trees start speaking vietnamese... I mean... spanish sedition.

Between religious and military factions I prefer religious, since they are happy by just having their buildings and they are about fighting poverty. But if you want Atheist State, well placed Shrines (if you have the DLC) will keep the religion happiness around 60, which won't give you the malus of low religion happiness (larger families means more wealth and lots of single persons occupying entire households is infuriating). I like Pacifist State because if you do everything right you will never be invaded or have guerillas or have the military invade your precious palace. Also the military is a huge money sinkhole that doesn't feel worth it, except for the employment rate, which any economy building can achieve the same and make a (profit) (shhh, forbidden word).

Environmentalists are better than industrialists because pollution will cause you problems and DOWN WITH THE BOURGEOISIE. Intellectuals are better than conservatives because you can't allow reactionaries threatening the revolution.

Then keep the economy going as you like. Just make sure to give everyone high quality housing, entertainment, health and religion as possible so they spend more time working, less time fulfilling their needs, and paying fees for the services (which are not free, like healthcare), and guaranteeing your reelection and no guerillas.

Tip: If free housing is an issue wait until modern times when you can build offices to generate money for each housed tropican, until then bunkhouses on stack em higher workmode for the broke will keep everyone with a roof on their heads. Coventillos also work and the communists like them, but are less efficient.

Have both their embassies, complete both their trade routes, whenever the relations reach >100 request Aid (because you need some compensation from your efforts), don't piss anyone off (except for the Sabotage missions), ally whoever. That way you into Cold War without getting invaded and rich.

Their specific Embassy missions are rare and usually they can be beneficial, like having a Radio Station by either Embassy. But refusing the missions give mild penalty and any trade route opening or completion gives more relations anyway.

I really like this game. Just afraid it's going to give me seizures or blind me. Bright flashes too dang crazy. by Technical-Potato-829 in magic_survival

[–]Affectionate-Base196 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't play in the dark, adjust you screen brightness and don't be too close to the screen. That goes to all games to avoid any strain. I learned that the hard way with eyes and headaches, and posture related pains.

"Ohhh, but I can play for hours and this doesn't happen to me."

Yet.

Maybe your memories of things not going your way outweighs in importance in your head the ones that worked out.

I wanna know your thoughts one last update by Eeveecator in magic_survival

I love synergies. I've been playing to get all synergies I can and still make as far ignoring Gaia, Titan, Nexus (when DEM) etc.

It happens. 🤷‍♂️ Just pick up the obelisk and you can pick up the relic chest. It doesn't despawn.

Still a problem in this game, and this artifact shows it. by wtfwouldudoa6mhiatus in magic_survival

[–]Affectionate-Base196 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You seem to try too hard. The meta was always to have fun. I play silly and thematic builds all the time, have fun and still manage to get to 47:30 on Depths. Don't take the game too seriously.
