So I see you nerfed the artifacts, which in itself is no big deal, except now all I keep getting are flux probes. I could have 5k artifact points and end up with like 10 flux probes. It's to the point that I'm thinking of redoing some planets for minerals instead of artifact points, its kind of screwed up in my opinion. It was fine when the permanent stat rewards were lower cost, because you'd get a nice mix of stuff, but now its got this reward gap. (Who knows, maybe I'm just crazy.)

This is just my opinion: If you have a lot of points saved up, the lower tiers shouldn't even be cycled into the reward mix. Maybe use a percentage formula, like anything below 20% of your current points won't be considered. So I believe there are 300 point rewards, if I have 2k points, then anything 400 points and below would not register in the rewards. 3k points would eliminate anything below 600 points etc.

Mox, you have just been very unlucky... :)

With that many points you should be in the pool for most of the artifacts. There are still plenty (over 30) artifacts in the 250 - 1000 range... Even more at higher ranges.

Eliminating the lower artifacts from the loot table is not an option - it would dramatically lower the rarity of the higher artifacts. They are meant to be rare. You shouldn't expect to get one just because you have lots of points.

Fair enough, I'll keep at it, and see what happens. Btw, what are the tiers?

are they:
300
500
1000
2000 ??

Good to know, guess I'll start letting it hit 6k range and see what happens.
