Why is the mineral build cost of t3 BC's so high? I can understand scaling, but the megacyte and zydrine costs are ridiculous.

Tornado - 1700 Megacyte, 4500 Zydrine with perfect manufacturing skills. using a .. 30 ME print.... Really? Oracle and the other t3 bc's are very similar.

(I can build about 50 cap ship components for that, their cost is about 124 zy and 8 mega per run (my numbers may be slightly off) So basically you can build a dreadnought, Freighter, or carrier, for what it cost you to build a single Tier 3 BC. This in my opinion is severally imbalanced.

Tier 2 Bc's such as the drake and the cane do not cost half of what these do in minerals to build.

This needs some serious adjustment.

There are no tiers anymore.

Megacyte / Zydrine at ME 30 according to IPH:

Tornado - 1667 / 4286
Hurricane - 1304 / 3209
Cyclone - 1502 / 2806

Roll.
