I like it!

Couple minor things though... I think the % on Rescued Stryll Prisoners is a little bit high, maybe 30/65/5 split would be better. And the Dark Dimension Engine and Crimson Photon Cannon... Would these replace the Dark Phase Engine and Korteth Twin Blasters (respectively) or be in addition to those?

So many of the drops are over powered .

But its cool . maybe make the drops weaker .

Yes they would be upgrades to those modules. Yeah i was thinking that the prisoner ratio might be a little high, but they're a great prize.



I know they kinda seem overpowered, and to some extent i guess they are, but i would say given the damage needed is 50k+ that they kinda need to be.

Is there a specific drop which you feel is especially overpowered, like maybe the temporal researchers or stryll holding cells?

I won't argue that... Make them too common and they lose their luster. I personally love seeing "Woot!" in the chat from the ones that get them. Just like MSPs... When you were only getting one every few days, you got excited. When you get 5-10 per day... They're Meh...

like the idea, how about making the timer for these really short e.g 1 hour before the npc expires therefore legions have to work quickly to defeat them

+1 !

lol, well we're not all Dyso's u know, not everyone can drop an xrp in 2 minutes flat

thats why you would have a whole hour

+1 to the idea

BUT, some of the drops need refinement imo

These are actually great ideas! They are not too overpowered as the requirement to FIND AND to LOCK is high, So you get a reward for efforts...

Maybe one for the Silthion too ?

Cuts timer in half. I'd hate to see the #&$# storm of complaints if it jumped out right before the 5th person kills it just because it already had less than 24 hours remaining.

Perhaps have it stop at 1 hour?

Change it so it halfs the timer

i like those, well thought out details...
drops are abit overdone, but again, it is wast amount of energy to push in there...


in edition to that, maybe double amount of slots and make it possible to share over your Battle pact, which also would be cool

Yeah, don't know what i was thinking when i wrote 24 hours, thanks for getting me on that guys, lol.

reason i am saying that it could be sharable via Battle pact, is that there is pretty a few legions where you have few guys above that range (500+ i mean) so all they can do with it, is purge or let go, which kinda sucks to be honest

I don't mind the idea of allowing Base NPC's to be shared via battle pact(separate share option on NPC tab), as it can be a pita if you find one of these huge NPC's and your maybe 1 of 3 or 4 or maybe the only guy who can even see the damned thing.

The number of slots would need to stay as they are though.
