No adjacancy bonus on Paragon (before you laugh: Salvation)

Postby Valki » 13 Sep 2015, 17:15

While trying out some things (with cheats), I built a T3 Static Arty next to a paragon, to see how fast it would fire. However, the Paragon does not provide an adjacency bonus, despite being both a mass and power generator.

A Salvation rapid fire artillery costs close to the amount of a paragon, as do 3 T3 artillery, and a Salvation might be the first thing you build once you finished the paragon.
Shouldn't artillery benefit from being adjacent to the paragon?

I'm definitely 80% serious on this :D

I think the only thing you want adjacent to para are shields and t1 pd anyway.

Infinite mass and energy isnt enough for you? :D you need infinite mass and energy with adjacency bonus?
Once you have para you shouldnt care about adjacency and jusr darw lines of game enders everywhere like t1 factories on crazy rush

Not sure the cost is relevant. As for fire rate. What % bonus would you give it? And generally you would want your 2 game enders not right next to each other

No you wouldn't, so there would have to be a benefit to it.

I would think +100% to +200% fire rate bonus.

with +100% a Salvation with 4 Paragons would shoot 5 times a second and have a total dps of ~40k which is kind of hilarious. :D
and with +200% it's would probably break the game shooting 26 times a second, ~207k dps and each shot splits into 36 that 26 times a second means it would rain 936 projectiles on the enemy per second.

it's better to surround it with tele prevention and shields instead of putting it next to your second 200k+ mass building anyway, even if it were to boost the salvation
