I realy wish this nerf would not have happened. And I already stated that I find the time wrong, too.
I would have understood a nerf / rebalancing after the rework of the border systems or the degrading of the Guard systems.
But this ? Oh my.
Do you hate Kusari that much ?
I will probably still fly the trade route to Yokohama myself because of RP reasons,
and Im interested on how much the change will affect my profit.
But I wonder if anybody else will care to fly the route.
I like the idea of changing drop rate, enabling me to set a fair price for scrap at the Haven and balancing scrapping effort ( / measured in profit per time ) and trading effort ( measured in profit per time ). No prob with equaling the drop rate to those of the other ores.
But the high difference between Yokohama and Alpha / Gamma ensures that practicaly nobody will trade PremScrap as a legal commodity.
So the only thing you nerf is smuggling as practicaly nobody takes the route to Alpha or Gamma without taking back contraband.
And pls :

After the next restart things will have changed ever so slightly.
... I do think we deserve a bit more insight on the background of this decision.
Please ?
