A CTP dropping NPC was delivered. Fine. We did ask for one, after all. However, the NPC can only benefit Ranks up to 100 at most. After that, they become a nuisance. They just clog up our Battle Tabs and drain our energy for a paltry reward. But there are most likely some people who find them useful and would like to farm them for a bit more. So I suggest that once you hit Rank 151, Rogue Tech Collectors become unavailable. Thoughts? Suggestions? |

id love it, but i think dans goal with it was to slow leveling in higher ranks. yes, they had flamehawks, but there was a good 100 ranks between 250 and 350 where players were unchallenged with NPCs. even the rogue data analyzers became easy around rank 275. so i think this was his solution to keeping people from getting to rank 350. after all, this way no new high rank content has to be added, and it slows down the best option for gaining xp in the game. if it was up to me, it would scale its ct drop value and have higher cloaking stats (so you could avoid it if u wanted to). or, as you suggested, make them have hard stats and stop spawning when they stop being useful. lol, but unfortunately, its not up to me. |

Suggestions? they tend to be easier than flamehawks, and the really high lvl folks don't have as many NPCs available to them that drop CTP-scrappable modules |

For example, the latest mission, im not sure what its called cause i finished it in the first 2 hours of its release, but instead of just leaving the scientists to die, you can help them encode it so its easier for your past self to decypher and you can get there sooner. something like that can be available for the rank 150+s, and then a third mission where you try to overload your reactors to counter the black holes power can be available to rank 350+s. i mean, if you have reactors that can harness the power of an entire universe in their reactor core (proxyuniverse reactors), then stabilizing a black hole is MORE than possible, if not easy... |

They are harder than flamehawks and less worth the xp: 6-8 hits for 20 xp, vs. 7-9 hits for 30 xp. However high ranks also need parts for bases. Most lower ranks just trade for parts instead. |

just scale the reward based on rank too say, a rank 400 gets 25 tech parts, or something like that |

I think we should upgrade them as they get higher level... Like Rouge Tech Harvester Rouge Tech Gatherer, etc etc |

How about making it 1 tech part every 2 hits so 10 shots to kill = 50 energy= 5 tech parts 20 shots to kill= 100 energy=10 tech parts |

I would rather see them give scaled reward of xp / tech parts.. Additionally, more uses for tech parts on higher levels. So that the stuff does not pile up as much... |

Just an idea, but how about having the tech collectors stop at a certain rank, and replace them with a new, more buffed up NPC which drops more tech? |
