make artifacts buyable with the ingame credits
have dominion cannons and other weapons or modules of this nature researchable
faster refresh rate of npcs
make some of the rarer artifacts easier to get ex terraforrming devices

in all keep improving this great game

thanks

-1 to buying artifacts with ingame creds, it would only benefit the higher ranked players
-1 to researchable badge modules, these weapons and modules are in effect rewards and should not be researchable especially the dominion cannons
-1 to faster refresh rates for npcs, we already have the Tactical Algorithm which refreshes the npc list (usable every 8 hours)
-1 to making rare artifacts easier to obtain, they're rare for a reason. if you want x ammount of terraforming devices, you have 2 options, npc hunt for them, or buy them from the artifact store.

-4 in total, you have some good ideas that would help, but when looking at the perspective of the entire game, then it'll only help the high rank players in the long run

"make artifacts buyable with the ingame credits"
*well, i make about 4 billion a day after upkeep... so no. the trading market will be the fair way to obtain sharable artifacts while remaining balanced.

"have dominion cannons and other weapons or modules of this nature researchable"
*Interesting. To play off your idea, we should have a research tree for badges. once researched, the badge items would be available in game. this would keep adding new content to the market without being easy to obtain. right now, unless its sold for over 200+ badges in any category but green, i can buy it immediately. i get about 30 badges a day... at least. thats why i liked, but disliked the cipherbot and protean armories. i like em because of their effects, (undoubtedly the best modules in the badge market) but i got them the day of release, and had em on my ship within the morrow. if we had to research new editions, it would be epic. so, i agree with you to some extent. force us to research stuff before we can buy it with badges.

"faster refresh rate of npcs"
*this was already taken care of... with the tactical remodulation ability! its a really good ability unlocked through the exotic chain. if you havent done it yet, i highly recommend it.

"make some of the rarer artifacts easier to get ex terraforrming devices"
* i will agree with you to some extent here... the troop carrier needs to have its drop rate increased to compensate for the recent increase of common energy sink npcs. however, thats about it. at the rate they drop now, i'll get my dyson by rank 5500...
