There are plenty of npc-dropped research structures. Sha'din Grid Network, Sha'din Hypergrid Network, Interrogation Center, Interrogation Stronghold, and Silthion Gas Vesicle. But as far as I know, there are no npc's (other than mission ones) that drop mineral or artifact structures. It would be nice if there were mineral and artifact counterparts to these research structures. I imagine the Mylarai Miners Guild would be the faction dropping the mining structures. What faction would drop artifact structures? Anyone who likes this idea feel free to come up with names for them. I can't think of any right now. |

Hmmm I like this. I do agree that most every drop of this nature seems RP oriented, back when they showed up most of us were not where we are now. It would be nice to see AP drops seeing as that the AP is twice that of the Mineral, and very near that of the research. Also given the lack of good AP planets now days this would be a nice add. However, for the minerals we do have the blade harvesters. So ++ to the idea of AP drops. |

Another related idea. There's a drop that increases a planet's research, the planet data optimizer. And one that increases mining, toxic purifier. How about we add one that increases artifact production of a planet (other than gift of the ancients)? |

Some of the special research structures are just taking up space in my cargo. Interrogation Stronghold (Uses left: 18). Silthion Gas Vesicle (Uses left: 11). |

That's what terraformers are for. |

Taltherian would drop artifact structures which means more taltherian NPC will be available,i mean as it is u only get the taltherian border sentry's as NPC's but u get them from mission only so it would be good to add more variety to NPC'ing. And Plagueis everytime i see that cat i think your always ina rush when u post thing's lol. EDIT: Oh and BTW +1 for the idea. |

Nor do I expect there will be an NPC dropped artifact structure/booster (aside from the Scruuge). At mid to high rank, artifact production is king and there are already plenty of NPC farmers with insane artifact production just from terraformers. Taltherian is also the most energy intensive of the 3 race chains. I suspect part of the reason we have Enumeration Crystals and Adumbrate Stations available from Base crates was that Dan wanted to give a good enticement to power legions to get them off low level bases. |

Yeah, both ideas have been suggested and would be great; great enough that they probably still won't be implemented because they're too good. Artifacts points are restricted the most, because they're the most useful for growth. |

Yeah I agree with this, too many bosses drop research structures, Maybe Dan should make Mylarai Npc's and Bosses, then Taltherian ones too. To be honest we all want new Npc's so why not get some? |

Won't happen. Look at the rate of Gift of the ancients. Dan is going extremely long ways to keep people from getting their AP production up. It would be nice to see a mining structure drop tho. From the Sha'din Envoys ! |
