Any chance you could make BPCs available exclusively through lowsec exploration instead of the implants themselves?

The existing implants (high-grade and renamed mid-grade) will continue to drop in the same places as before and be available in LP stores at the same prices as before.


Do i understand correctly that you want the *new* low-grades in lowsec? i would urge you to reconsider, because right now you can already find *current* low-grades as drops from faction rats in highsec (lowsec, too) - these will be the *new* med-grades.

So ... while lowsec *only* sounds good, people can already find the better variants in highsec ... which kinda defeats the whole risk-vs-reward structure.

Highsec-lowgrade/Lowsec-medgrade/Nullsec-highgrade would certainly be better, but you'd need to go thru all the possible sites/rats then and change it i guess....


Otherwise \o/

So the frigate-sized commander spawns that currently drop low-grades will now drop mid-grades along with the cruiser sized ones?

Weird, but okay.

These are awesome! Two followup questions:
1. What about the rumoured 5th Genolution implant?
2. Will there be a +4 version of the Ascendancy implants?


No new Genolution implants in Kronos, but probably someday.

Any change the Genolutions will have an ingame supply route? They are awesome implants, but the prices are getting ridiculous.

Also, can we start buffing NPC nullsec now? Lowsec seems to be getting all the cool stuff.(Which is well deserved because of the terribleness it has been in for years.)

Null-sec doesn't need a buff... It's getting a huge industry revamp shortly.

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Why are so many things being added to lowsec exploration rather than normal seeding, if you want people to actually use them they need to be readily available.

I get that you want to attract people to lowsec but the droprate on these should be good enough to make it worth it

Train reading to I. I referenced NPC nullsec. Not SOV nullsec. Once does not get upgradeable stations. One does.

NPC null-sec doesn't need a buff, either.

It's always nice when you give us something new to build.

Any possibility of getting Crystals to work on caps, or having Slaves not work on caps, to balance out shield vs armor caps?

A Wyvern can get as much / more EHP than a slaved Aeon.

Quite nice, that the way to go to increase Low sec activity.
