I hear that I'm going to not be able to see the Queen NPC's anymore when I reach rank 901 and I'm rank 864 right now.
I probably won't be able to see the Lazuli Fabrication Plants either.

These NPC's make the game exciting and fun to disable and see what we get like a Christmas gift or like a artifact withdraw when we collect them.
We all will always need and want energy sacs from the Queens and the passive cloak and defense we can add to our planets from the Lazuli Plants.

So why do we have to grow out of them ?
Why can't they grow with us and have them have higher hull and defense or whatever ?

It would keep the game fun for all of us and let us keep enjoying the drops from the ships to add to our ships and planets that we will always need.

I out grew the Renegar Refineries I believe they were called that gave us passive attack on our Gas and Volcanic planets that we will never stop needing. It would be nice to have them at my current rank too to get the bonuses. We will never not need these bonuses so why do we have to out grow them and leave them behind to never see again ?


Dan help us out here ... I really don't want to get bored and miss out on these really good NPC's and lose out on the things that we will always need and want.

Oh there you go reason #2 why I reset. Bored of the NPC mix at rank 1700, bosses that I dropped scan not to see (3 of the 4 become useless after you have the drops, the other only drops 25% something useful). Lazuli cloak drops were cool, I missed it. The XP for the effort isn't all that good either.

it's called jumping from fast ranking to incredibly slow ranking, I'm planning on doing that when I hit rank 212 and I'll change to a different race either zolazin sab or genetarr.
but to your idea, I think we need some boss NPCs that don't have an upper limit rank range or ones that are extremely high rank like rank 1000 or something.

People have been asking for more bosses for a long time, and I agree, there should be more. I'm rank 466 so i'm a long way yet from maxing out, but i'm not liking the idea that i'm creeping ever-closer to the limit. I've heard that new very high-rank missions have been added recently, so why not new bosses? And it's not just the bosses, but the NPC's in general. I would like to see a much greater mix of NPC's in the game, at all rank levels.

Yeah, high content NPCs are very lacking. It had been repeatedly asked for more high-rank NPC bosses. I asked for it especially ones that can drop tech parts more often and Dan just gave the Rogue Tech NPCs instead of bosses. ;( Tech NPCs are pretty good but we sure need BOSSES..

Here's a solution: matched elites! Scaled by your legion average rank, they could be shared with 3x above and 0.5x below. Problem would be finding a scaled reward. Possibly an artifact that works similarly to the radiant surge cannon?

I would love to see more elite/boss type NPC's come out for the higher lvl's that are bassed off of the lower ones. I have all ready lost the queens and am about to lose the fab. plants and would love to see either the fab plants go for longer or a better one come out for players over the rank of 1000. Now I know not many players are there yet but more and more will start getting there soon enough and we need more NPC's. I think that once I get to the rank 1K mark I will only be able to see 4 elite/boss NPC's. That is not good since we are also the ones who hunt the most out there most likely. Please please keep the NPC's up to date.

I say new NPCs in general are good.

Note: Just started seeing Flamehawks a few days ago.....(O_O)
What makes it worse is I am not a fighting type player........So Light Anti-Proton Cannons just won't cut My it for NPC hunting....in the past they worked just fine.
