Mass Replicator: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 14:31, 14 January 2015

The mass replicator is a late game console unlocked after Tier 3 economy has been researched from the upgrades console. The mass replicator uses energy from your Battlecruisers' main energy capacitor to artificially create any type of mineral. Each mineral type costs a different amount of energy to replicate. The mass replicator spawns near the construction console on the lower deck.

*Replication energy cost*
Icon	Name	Conversion
	Veldite	EICON 1500 : 10
	Chalcorium	EICON 2000 : 10
	Pyromanite	EICON 2000 : 10
	Kermiculite	EICON 10000 : 10

The Mass replicator is very situation and thus not often used.
The console should not be used when energy is critical, this includes preparing, during or after a battle between Battlecruisers.
An advanced play is to use the replicator with a power dock to regenerate the used energy quickly.

-The mass replicator is a late game console that must be purchased for 100 [[veldite]] and [[pyromanite]] on top of 15 [[kermiculite]]. The console is created just above the refining area, and can be used to artificially create all mineral types available by using your [[battlecruiser|battlecruiser's]] energy.

-Due to the hefty cost of energy, mass replicator is often overlooked as it is simpler to gather the resources using a miner instead without the risk of draining all of your [[battlecruiser]]'s energy. However, in Game's which players may be having trouble finding specific resources, a replicator may help, and become an efficient tool through the use of Powerdocking, where it becomes highly effective, as energy can be regenerated quite quickly. A replicator should never be used in a combat situation, during combat preparations, or immediately after an engagement, as the heavy energy taxation greatly reduces the effective use of engines and shielding, in some cases, use of a replicator in battle conditions by an inexperienced or unaware player can, and most often will, cost that player's team the game.
