Topic: Suggestion: Specimen SAP replacement

Add a new item, call it robot cores.  When you kill an enemy his core will drop in the can, and can be looted.  Attached will be the players name and the bot from which it came.

Specimens will now require enemy robot cores rather than random crap.

Those not interested in SAPS can collect as trophies.

What's exactly wrong with those SAPs? They can be either easy or hard to do depending on preparations.

Re: Suggestion: Specimen SAP replacement

I suggest to replace specimen sap loot type.
Let it be a special item, 80U volume.
You should manufacture it on factory.
Spec sap needs 9 of it.
You should feed sap 3 times with 3 items each time with 1 min delay.
U can haul it with 9 sequers, or 3 litus or 1 scarab.
I think it will by the best solution for spec saps.

Re: Suggestion: Specimen SAP replacement

Specimen SAP rebalance is 3 years overdue. Just don't follow suggestions from this thread, they are even more ridiculous than the surrent mechanic.

I propose to add an energy transfer SAP instead of specimen.

Re: Suggestion: Specimen SAP replacement

Aside from changing Specimen I think it would be better to change all SAP to Dynamic. All sap will change objective every  time there is an intrusion , and to randomize it more we could add 10 different objectives some would be really easy to do some are more challenging. Like kill a player to win an intrusion can be anyone even you corp mate. lol

This type of SAP makes the most sense and goes with the lore.

Gawd yes, change the entire Sap dynamic., Since it was introduced, I always bring a pillow. As it is, its boring as boring can be.

While it sounds good related to the lore, that suggestion sounds like group active hacking to me. I like the variety.
I also think that a convoy type of mission is nice - changes the battlefield a little bit, and at the moment specimen SAPs require you to run a transport and guard it (in case any hostile force shows up).

The idea of Alexadar with a special manufactured good being required to be moved to an outpost is not that bad, in my opinion.

Re: Suggestion: Specimen SAP replacement

Or why not use the energy cells we already have in game that were used to open the Gamma gates big_smile to charge the SAP
