i would like a black badge arty that reduces XP gained from mission

Heeere comes all the -1s from all the big names on the forums!

lol "why would i want to waste valuable dark badges on something that gives me a negative effect, boo hoo*

So Dan says there will be more battle market items to come this summer. I have some ideas for new items.

Blue Badges

Counter-Intelligence Headquarters Upgrade
Upgrades an existing Counter-Intelligence Nexus on your planet to a Counter-Intelligence Headquarters, doubling all its bonuses. The new structure will also provide a 5% research bonus. Requires 400 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 60 Blue Badges.

Sounds reasonable. +1

Tactical Restoration
Reinstalls up to 5 weapons or defense modules on your ship that have been deactivated by a Tactical Inner-Bypass. Requires 250 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 5 Blue Badges.

Umm, no. I'm sure even you're not lazy enough to spend the badges on this when you could just reinstall the modules. -1

Silver Badges

Ultra-Seek Targeter Upgrade
Upgrades an existing Tetra-Seek Targeter on your ship to an Ultra-Seek Targeter, adding a 60 cloak bonus and unlocking an activated ability. Targeter Overcharge grants your ship a 5% base attack bonus for 1 hour with a 20 hour cooldown. Requires 750 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 32 Silver Badges.

Doesn't the regular Tetra-Seek already do that? The cloak bonus seems unrelated to the module's function and bases are already difficult to defend from most battle groups out there. -1.

BM150 Convoy Shuttle Upgrade
Upgrades an existing BM50 Convoy Shuttle on your ship to a BM150 Convoy Shuttle, adding a 150 hull bonus and unlocking an activated ability. Convoy Overcharge grants your ship a 5% base defense bonus for 1 hour with a 20 hour cooldown. Requires 800 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 40 Silver Badges.

Same reason as above, no thank you.

HyperSurge Plexus Upgrade
Upgrades an existing Surge Plexus on your ship to a HyperSurge Plexus, adding a 100 defense bonus and unlocking an activated ability. Plexus overcharge grants a 5% npc attack bonus for 1 hour with a 20 hour cooldown. Requires 700 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 44 Silver Badges.

Same as above.

Tera-Coil Repulsor Upgrade
Upgrades an existing Mega-Coil Repulsor on your ship to a Tera-Coil Repulsor, adding a 60 cloak bonus and unlocking an activated ability. Tera-Coil Overcharge increases your npc defense by 5% for 1 hour with a 20 hour cooldown. The new module will also reduce the chance of being debuffed by an npc ability by 1%, to a minimum of 1%. Requires 600 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 42 Silver Badges.

Same as above

Continuum Parser Upgrade
Upgrades an existing Continuum Parser on your ship to a Continuum Parser II, doubling its attack and cloak bonuses. Requires 350 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 14 Silver Badges.

This sounds good. +1

Dark Badges

Quantum Accelerator Upgrade
Upgrades an existing Quantum Accelerator on your planet, increasing producion by 1 and cloak by 150. Requires 500 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 180 Dark Badges.

Not sure what to say about this.

Composite Dualray Upgrade
Merges two existing Composite Rays of different type into a single weapon, combining their stats. The Composite Dualray will only take up 13 decks on your ship. Requires 500 Medal Points Earned.
Cost: 412 Dark Badges.

Valuable Dark Badges? If you're an NPCer you'd have a ton of DBs... it's not even about the DBs, it's about the negative effect on the artifact itself... No one needs such a stupid artifact, slow ranker, freeze ranker, faster ranker, it won't matter.

AHAHAHAHAH, what?, a slow ranker wont want this ? i do, im a very slow ranker and i want it.

also that quote was just an example of what i see when people complain about things like this.

Please tell me how this would help you...? And I never said a slow ranker would not want it ofc they would love it... I'm saying the artifact is not needed in this game.

Enough said.

you know what i mean, stop trying to use things ive said against me.

No I don't because you stated that you want an artifact that reduces EXP specifically for mission and when I asked you how this artifact would help you doing mission, you made up other reasons that doesn't relate to the artifact. If you stated that you want an artifact that reduces EXP in general, then maybe I would've gotten what you're saying. But that's not the case.

before we got into this i edited a post were i said "mission," i obviously edited the wrong post.
in fact its the fourth one down, you know know what i mean, either you like it or you don't.

p.s. you quoted said post which imply's you read what i meant in the first place

i would like a black badge arty that reduces XP gained

weird i posted and its gone now

any event, I think Dan would not want this - it would affect his rule regarding base donations tangentally...

e.g.

you have 5k energy and 2k e (or less to level)... now you'd do the max donation you could without leveling, then do a 2k donation and the rest of the E if not used somehow is gone...

with this device, it would let you do more donations...

Dan set the 2k cap for a reason... hence i don't think he'll like this


keep thinking though and maybe you'll find something Dan does like and will implement.

Yep... still not going to happen. Though I admire the passion you have on something that'll never happen (this artifact and your goal on hitting the pvp leaderboard)

and what's to say i won't make it to the leaderboard, i have as good of chance as anyone else.

i'm going to make sure i get there, just so i can rub your face in it.

Now first you have to hit Insane Rep...
