Gift of the Mithrilar

Does this have a continuing effect on the developing population of the targeted world or does it only affect the citizens present at the time it is used?

[Worlord]

I had that question as well, but I keep forgetting to check back with my new colonists to find out.

[MightyMouse]

Not sure that would help. How would you tell whether the colonist had +1 added to their base stat or not?

[Frogboy]

Mouse over their stat and you can see. It will keep improving the people in thst world, even new ones.

Thank you

Why is there is no downsides to such powerful ability as Gift of the Mithrilar?

[Supply Side Jesus]

Just to demonstrate how much difference it makes:

I have a home world that I optimized for research. Got all galactic and civ buildings, with science tile ranking between 8 and 12. This world produces 165 research per turn at around turn 200.

I have a conquered world, Arcean, that has Neural Link and Gift of the Mithrilar. That world has tech capital, 1 science tile and the Neural Link. It produces 410 research per turn. Because citizens and governor with 60-70 intelligence outproduce anything else you could build.

TL;DR It stacks too much and need to be nerfed. Maybe do not apply this effect to the governor?

[MightyMouse]

Naughty nerfer. Not everything has to have a downside. Nothing wrong with having a rare random benny to turn backflips over.

[Supply Side Jesus]

The "I win in 200 turns" random event should not be a thing.

[Vlad_1492]

Stack that with the pacifist 'quadruple stat' perk and it is game over pretty quick.

I think this is grossly OP too

I think Gift of the Mithrilar should just delete the core world once certain level of intelligence reached. Say, at cumulative (pop + governors) int of 500 (9 pops at 50 int plus governor) they just transcend to a higher plane of existence. When that happens,it removes all pops on that planet from the game. Essentially you get an empty world with no pops that you have to re-colonize.

So this isn't gamed too much, there should be some component of randomness for the threshold. So it isn't exactly the same each time.

sounds like a cool idea!

God please no do not destroy my core world like that!
