Topic: Artifact Hunters are FUC.KED! NERF Mk2 CT DROP RATES!!!

[00:06:05] <Lucius Marcellus> 150p multiplier: 1.1136
[00:06:26] <Lucius Marcellus> 0p multiplier: 1.17237

~5%(a little higher with low extensions) difference between a 150p and 0p CT = 150p CTs are useless.

Solution?

Nerf ALL Mk2 CTs drop rates.
50p 2.25/100
100p 1.5/100
150p 1/100
That's for beta, less for alpha and more for gamma.

I'd argue that even those drop rates might be too high, considering the new role a CT takes in the production process.

Since all you'll need is 1 CT, ever, and most corps have 1 of each, the only value will be for new bots like the Scarab MK II. But regardless of rarity, no one is going to pay 1 B NIC for 1 CT, as they can simply artifact scan themselves. So maybe the price bumps to 100m per CT, of any %, but only the first 100 or so will sell.

CTs don't get destroyed when reaching 0p? WTF?!

Well, i've got a few cts to sell. 150m per CT.

I'm dissappointed about this, as i enjoy(ed) arti hunting ... a lot. Sadly, the market will probably saturate quite fast, and then there is no need for hunting anymore

Well you can always make a living of refining the flawed crap.

Because the voices told me to do it.

That's the best news I've heard all day smile

Maybe the second best... or a close third at least.

From what i've been told, CTs self destroying at 0% does not offset the insignificance of their percantage at the current decay rates. A possible solution to rebalance CT significance might be to vastly decrease the amount of bots/mods one can produce per CT?
