I'll start with the Planet Flux...

To scrape a Planet Flux would net you 25k-100k CREDITS? What kind of a sick joke is that? I'd say a fair scrapping value for a Planet Flux will be (AT LEAST) 1k-2.5k CTPs.

Now, name any scrappable items, actual scrap values, and recommended scrap values. You may state a rationale if you'd like.

Thanks. - Asheron

I'm happy with the way it is, especially for valuable things like a Planet Flux, the rationale being....... DON'T SCRAP IT!

It has a much better use.

That is all.

For important item... RPGs got a habit to give it 1 Gold (or whatever currency they have) for the selling price, to signifies that it's important item.

definate -1, absolutely no point considering they sell to be used at about 1500-1700 ish... scrapping should be if you really don't want em... just leave it as it is...

Planet fluxes are probably a two part throwback to when you could get them from artifact collection and that they were available before CTP was even part of the game.

If someone has a new working car and they want to scrap it due to some case of insanity (or maybe just stupidity) they'll get AAAALLLOOOOTTTTT less than what they would get if you'd just sold the car to someone else... The game uses the same logic.

Only thing I could consider when it comes to scrapping stuff like Fluxes or storages, is to make them un-scrappable. Simply grey out the scrap button.

This... because leaving the option to scrap something you expect people to pay $5 for... shouldn't be disposable like a paper plate. Mainly because you could probably buy a few hundred paper plates for $5.... which means it's sad if you can even accidentally throw away $5 because by some sort of twisted logic that will make you want to buy it again ? Har har har (and this all assuming some one WOULD hit the scrap while intoxicated or otherwise distracted...)
