Post Wattage - Ship BP
I received a PM regarding this item, and its status - these aren't under my remit, however I'll answer a specific question:

  • Wattage ship BP has been changed recently, and the current stats on live are incorrect. They are now T21 and use new production cycles - the stats should be correct on the test server.



Please be aware of this, and do not rely on the live stats for planning builds and so forth. Discussions are pending over wattage augs, however we are aware that 6 have been built and 4 are equipped, we won't slap changes on people without good notification or without planning how to help those owners / users (i.e. Voom is aware and will handle any results of changes if they happen).

Post Re: Wattage - Ship BP
I built and equipped a wattage aug on the basis of dev feedback on the forum that the only change would be a reduction of damage from +40% to +25%. I'm fairly confident that you guys aren't going to screw me over on the 25b investment I made to buy the bp and build, not to mention the considerable secondary investment in building a setup around the aug. However, this sort of thing has happened in the past so I just want to make sure I'm in the loop from the beginning.

Also, only 6 have been built? Never thought I'd be quite so avant-garde in the SS community.

You can be confident you won't be "screwed over". If (big if) the aug is changed at any point, I'll personally make an identical aug that you can use. i.e. cosmetic name change at worst.

The only cutting feeling you're gonna have is when they slice your aug in half. :P

And perhaps Aurora or a dev can also just tell us whether these modules are going to require ada modules to build? Or are they going to be completely separate? I'm gonna go ahead and guess the latter.

Actually, I waited to acquire it till I had confirmation from s_m_w (I'm almost positive -- it was a content dev at any rate) that the damage nerf would be the *only* change. Incidentally, a thorough forum search revealed that that particular thread (Katherine's wattage aug auction) no longer exists, which I find a bit suspicious.

Edit: So I'm not getting screwed over. I'll shut up now.

These "Modules" won't require Ada Modules. They're based off of Rubicite, not Ada. If anything, you'll be calling them Rubicite Modules.

Only items with Rubicite in their name use Rubicite.

Post Re: Wattage - Ship BP
lol...so my massive wattage aug auction where s_m_w went and got the aug nerfed and the auction all fucked up because no one wanted it anymore wasnt a sudden change without warning?



it would have been at least 50b...had to settle for much lower since a random dev decided it was OP and never got around to actually changing it.

weird huh.
