Post subject:  Higher Tier Dominion Cannons
Since Radiant Surge Cannons go up to Mark IV with an incredible 675 attack power, maybe it is time to make even higher tier Dominion Cannons. Now yes, Radian Surge Cannons are only purchasable with GP and only two can be equipped so here is what I suggest:

Dominion Cannon Size 8 Attack 50 Cost 40 Red Badges
Dominion Cannon Mark II Size 12 Attack 90 Cost 72 Red Badges (rank 50)
Dominion Cannon Mark III Size 17 Attack 150 Cost 128 Red Badges (rank 100)
Dominion Cannon Mark IV Size 23 Attack 220 Cost 224 Red Badges (rank 150)
Dominion Cannon Mark V Size 30 Attack 300 Cost 384 Red Badges (rank 200)

(There should be the ability to "upgrade" Dominion Cannons from one tier to another, for example tier one to two should only cost 32 Red Badges.)

Now, these numbers might look stunning and "overpowered", but here is my reasoning.

Battle Shop rewards are meant to be rewarding those who are focused in the Art of PVPing. Unfortunately, right now the rewards are too cheap and ineffective. Take a look at the original Dominion Cannon. With four installed, the total attack power is 200. 200 tactical officers make up the exact same attack power and that is only 100 rank points, which is about 10 ranks if you focus your points into attack. Take a look at the Decryption Quad Frame. It is seriously a joke. It feels like an extra set of weak Sha'adin computers.

With the introduction of Mark III, a total of 600 attack is impressive for a rank 100. However, fewer than 500 Red Badges is not too particularly to get if you are focused and dedicated to PVP.

Now yes, I understand high ranks have an excruciatingly hard time getting Red Badges, especially having to null fuse through 2 traps. So, why not make it so that you get Red Badges REGARDLESS of rank, BUT, change the timer to 24 hours instead of 12. Face it, high ranks will always slaughter low ranks. One Red Badge every 24 hours for a hit against a low rank is not overpowered. You cannot farm for badges, low ranks rarely appear on the scans of high ranks and high ranks would have their problems of badges solved.

Better PVP rewards means people who FOCUS on PVP and take the time to rank up slower will be rewarded with better equipment than people who rush through ranks slaughtering NPCs. Slow rankers will have better PVP rewards to compensate for the lower tech. Lower ranks will be able to defend themselves instead of being absolutely wasted every single time.




Bring on the criticism!

I read Higher tier, and started to skim through it I saw were you wrote it but we have enough marks for the dominions and I think we should only have Mark I to Mark III I mean we already got better dominions dont push it.

I don't see it getting added being comparable to a bought GP item.

It would be excruciating to get, 1200 Red Badges. Very few people even have that many kills as of now. Very few people would in the future.

Mark III's were introduced like yesterday, just calm down mate, wait till everyone 4x Mark III dominion cannons before you add new stuff. I want more things for yellow badges, that's all.
1200 red badges is shitload, some people can barely get themselves 160 badges for the standard dominion cannons.

If you had read my post (which is long, yes), then you would have noticed that I proposed a modification of the current badge system. I specifically talked about how "high ranks" would be able to obtain badges a bit easier, and besides, these rewards are meant for the dedicated "elite". NPC hunters would definitely find it hard to get 1200 Red Badges yes, but a dedicated PVPer CAN obtain that, albeit with some patience.

LOL yeah, if the badge system was in place since they started. even 'dedicated' pvpers at certain ranks will find these impossible to get.

I think this is important. I just finished buying all the mark 1 dominion cannons and now I have to start all over again. I hate starting from scratch. Gimme some upgrade love instead of kicking me in the nuts please.

Rather than direct 1:1 badges, maybe it'd be fairer to have a choice to either:
a) buy them all from scratch.
b) upgrade existing cannons, which saves you half the badge cost of the previous one. For example, upgrading a mk1 to a mk2 costs 52, not 72.
