Afternoon
Please take all this with a pinch of salt, as I may not be 100% correct, so enlighten me please on the reasons why if you can.
For example a regular Amarr corp will offer you Amarr Navy Heatsinks in there store, however the Blood Raider LP store will not offer you DB Heatsinks (really hope I'm right and didn;t miss it while scanning through the list)
Is there any particular reason why this is the case, was it intentional to keep pirate mods confined to loot drops.
Cheers

Edited by: Jaketh Ivanes on 17/07/2007 13:02:59Because you cannot get Amarr Navy Heatsinks in any other way?? I havn't fought the Amarr Navy ships, but the Republic Fleet doesn't drop Republic Fleet modules. DB can be farmed at the belts and are still rare mods. See it like a custom part made by the Pirate, whereas the Navy orders these items in bulk with specific spec's. That would be my reasoning anyways  EDIT: Correted the republic name tag. |

We want to get away from the situation where the same loot is obtainable through six different mechanics, because it means a change to one of those mechanics can nerf the other five. We may add a line of Blood, Guristas etc kit in future, or we may add something entirely new |

Very understandable for items that are stats-wise different. But right now, it is easier to get a Domination/Republic Fleet Stasis Webifier (for example) by doing missions for Republic Fleet than by flying for Domination out in 0.0. Shooting the Domination spawns that may drop that module in fact decreases your standing to Domination. I think that is sad. [Edit] And I think a second line of items will have the same flaw. Just as right now you can buy the +10% ammo in 0.0 and the +15% one in empire. |
