Rebalance Nomad Remains

[Lythrilux]

The Nomad remains player market is kind of dying. There's so much POB equipment in circulation that it's just easier for players to buy what's already out there, rather than having items constructed for them.

I think buffing the sell price at NPC bases would be excellent. Especially since thanks to brilliant, healthy changes to missions it's even harder for factions with light battleships only to farm.

Not really, just not so much players need cloacks. Add here, that only nom BS have price, and all other remains just easy farmable garbadge, you will get market with flow 10-20 BS remains/month. There big stock not of equipment, but of remains themselves. Obviously they farmed much faster than equipment produced and not proportionally, what lead to high prices of BS remains, and overstocking of all others.

Also all missions pretty doable even on factions with BCrs only, just in groups

But ye, BS remains can be upped to 1-2 mils, fighter up to 50k, currently Corsairs have bigger price . Gunboats up to 100k max, they really too easy for farm.

There's still a market for POB equipment, it's just far easier for all participants to

The problem about mission changes is that even before the missions, Makos/Ossies majority of the time had to do it in groups. If you were very good at it, it was possible to do it solo although it was very hard. But for Heavy battleships, solo farming was a breeze. You had the armour, the powercore and the guns to farm alone. I mean yeah, I'm not saying these missions are impossible, but the buff of NPCs requires you to field more ships on average to tackle them, and also your profits are hampered because Hurricanes had a price hike (and they were the only way for light battleships to do these missions). Meanwhile Heavy Battleships can just solo meme current missions with Reapers. Yhe factions that lore wise are so supposed to excel at this kind of thing struggle more than oorp farming combinations/loadouts. People fly meme house caps into the Omicrons, and Nephs into places like Major, because as of current they're the best ships for the job.

Remains being a consimeable could be a cool idea. But persobalky I'd like to move them out of the player economy and into something more robust.
