What happens (other than not being able to install stuff) when you are over decks ? I heard your special modules (mission modules) become inactive or something ?

yes, that

I thought another thread mentioned stuff gets uninstalled, or is that not true ? Do your normal mods function ?

As far as i know, mission teir reward stuff gives no bonus, as if it were uninstalled, and i wouldn't know about mission modules, never happened to me.

So I could go 1000 decks over (Theoretically) and only lose my tier rewards? And that would allow high ranks to drop down below 20 scan to avoid assassins+tech collectors?

well, dont know why you would even wanna change from sillixx

i'll name 3 reasons...

Kronyn, Mylarai, and Taltherian

Don't forget Drannik or Z. Sab either for reasons to change from Sillixx. Or Konqul even. Lazuli is pretty good too. And, now that I think about it:
Sillixx:
+10% upkeep
+10% damage taken
Sounds like a great race, although those extra 100 decks would fit me a defence module for a boost equivilent to Aerlen, except it would raise my damage cap and leave me with 30 decks. Sooo not worth it.

? i don't remember anything about a +10% upkeep on sillixx

+10% decks does not mean +10% upkeep... depends on how that space is used...
keep in mind that size vs upkeep on researched modules is an exponential curve

10% more decks=10% more modules=10% more upkeep

In theory anyway.

when i switched from silixx, random modules i had equipped were rendered useless until i unequipped enough modules to have enough space to accommodate what i had equipped

That's what I seem to remember getting too, now that I think about it. Some of my tier rewards worked, others didn't and random modules providing 0 stat, while still taking upkeep.

thats fair enough, i was wrong...because zolazin, drannik and lazuli are 3 other i WANT to be...so sorta bad point. and thunder, you shouldnt have changed from sillixx :O

So I should lose 500 attack and not be able to use my profession of choice for 100 decks? I'm already maxed on weapons,so I can't make it back either.

whats your proffesion of choice? and i would never change from sillixx just to be an ugly konqul...

Excavator

oh ok

Could be worse. You could look like a human!

i'm sure if you look through your devices tab you should be able to find 100 decks worth of miscellaneous modules that are giving very low stat point per deck space ratios
(i usually start with zolazin jammers, stryll transponders, and bio-signature scramblers)

So I am curious. How do you change races? Is there a mission you can complete, or a drop item, or is it a rare artifact that you can instead, buy? If so, what is the best switch from inergon physicist?
