It would definitely be nice to see some more uses for badges, and new structures and modules are always welcome.

+1 from me.

Something new would be nice.

Good ideas! I think for the Dark Badges, the Upgrades should be 300 Dark Badges only because 120 is nothing, it's easy to do almost twice that in a single day for those of us that hunt NPCs as a play style. That would lead to way too many upgrade bonuses too easily. I think 300 or perhaps even 500 would be more appropriate, especially for the planet buildings as well.

Always a fan of new stuff but I'd change the names for two of your things some.
Tetra-Seek Jammer = Deflector shields maybe
Anti-Overload Nullifier = surge nullifier or something those to just sound weird

I think Tetra-Seek Jammer goes more hand in hand with the Tetra-Seek Targeter. Targeter adds bonus attack, Jammer bonus defense. Makes sense.

I do agree about the Surge Nullifier though. Surge Plexus gives bonus attack, Nullifier bonus defense.

I like your ideas, but PLEASE no more decryption quad frames. I just got all four and I am NOT interested in racking up another 500+ blue badges just to upgrade my existing ones. Plus, the counter intelligence nexus is still in high demand.

i am
+1 to all the ideas

Dark Badge Item:

Composite Plexus?
Special Module - Size 20: Energy +50 Shield +100
Lowers Energy cost to attack a Non-Player Enemy by 1
Limit 2 per ship
Cost: 708 Dark Badges

Lol Im sure someone can come up with a better name.

+! and +1 to the other ideas except I think some of the dark badge ones could be too powerful. There are lots of special ship modules and the boosts might be too high, especially with high rank NPC hunters getting lots of dark badges. (I've only got 250 so far and I'm a rank 440 NPC hunter. Don't know how you high ranks do it.)

+1 generally, with the following things:

Planetary Scanner: I know there is a scanner in silvers right now, but i don't feel planetary scans should be based on silvers. Feel like it might be more of an... green item. And on a side note.... why is there NO mixed item? like part silver part green or something?? anyone know?

Module Upgrade: would have to be VERY limited on what things can be upgraded... for starters... NO to energy ones = =;

Structural Upgrade seems to cheap, just check out how much the "warp gate upgrade" cost is from the CT lab.... I mean I would love this, but I doubt it would ever happen.


Composite Plexus<<this isn't OP but... anyway
I think you can infer from the assassins how dan feels about auto lvling, do you think you stand a chance?

other than those~ very good

I'm really digging the upgraded quadframes, but that would leave me with obsolete tech .
+1, they can be gotten back

There are some badge modules similar to a couple of these ideas that were recently released. The BM50 Convoy Shuttle increases defense against bases by 5%. And the CipherBot increases hacking ability by 7%. I have all three bots and am close to getting my second convoy shuttle.

And about the planetary structures. If Heist Dispatch Stronghold and Counter-Intelligence Headquarters were released, there should be the option to upgrade existing Heist Dispatch Centers and Counter-Intelligence Nexi to those more advanced structures. The cost would be 35 yellow badges and 20 blue badges, respectively.

And another green badge idea: Assimilation Locus Upgrade. Upgrades an existing Assimilation Locus, doubling its bonuses. Cannot be used on an Assimilation Locus which already has a double bonus. Cost: 4 Green Badges. It would cost more than 3 greens because this is better than building an assimilation locus. Building an assimilation locus takes up space, but this upgrade would add mining and population without taking up more space.

-1 to one of my ideas. Planetary Scanner. Although an extra 9% planet scanning power would be nice, that would make it easier for other players to find my planets. And planets would need even higher cloak to remain hidden.

Increased the price of the structural and module upgrades. Also added more cloak to the headquarters. And I added a yellow badge item and a green badge item.

+1 i like em all but what about some new red badge items, i mean once u get the 4 mrkIII dominions there is no use of the reds apart from base scanning and once people get the cannons most people stop PVP'ing. I would like to see more rewards for red badges.

I would like to see an artifact that would reduce the cost to colonize/invade!
