Hi Guys,
I've looked in forums but cant find the answer to this,
For the Graviton Tech you need 300K energy, Can someone tell me if you have to maintain the 300K energy once you have reached it for building Deathstar or is it just sufficient to reach that and then even if your energy drops below 300k you will still have the tech and therefore can build the deathstar.
Also how long does it take to build the Graviton Tech.
Hope the question makes sense.

Thanks in advance

there is a topic on this but i dont remember where it is at the moment.

to answer your question no you do not have to maintain the 300k only for the research then primarily you would want a alliance mate to crash those sats for you to collect the DF. if not you are putting a big target on your head. hope this helps.

Once you have 300k energy, you can research Graviton. It is instant research, no time required. After you research it, you do not need that energy for anything (unless going for lvl2 for the Lunar Guardian) and can crash those solar sats. It makes a good moonshot, and you can recycle some of the resources you put into it. Also, when doing this, make sure you've gone into options and unchecked the scoreboard box so your sats don't become a target for a hungry fleeter. Lastly, the best way to get that energy is build sats after you have nanite level 4 (insta-sats) on a warm planet.

EDIT: someone answered before me, but meh, I'll post anyway

your post was cleaner then mine anyway, mine was a bit crude.

Thanks guys for your answer and tips, makes perfect sense.
Really impressed by the immediate replies

One other thing if you are playing in speed then you can insta-build at nanite level 3
