Now granted the price points MAY be different on Live, but The Thorn Liro vendor in Sausalito has charge plades for sale. He has, blue, purple and orange. They cost faction currency AND scrip.
Rizifyo Blade 250 fc & 25K scrip
Valafyo Blade 500 fc & 100K scrip
Shanjifyo Blade 1000 fc & 500K scrip
I guess its a good thing I never really wanted a charge blade lol. You happen to know if these replace your normal melee or do they take up a gun slot in your loadout?
They need to start making scrip easier to get without farming then, because those prices are ridiculous.
They take up a weapon slot. Of course it isn't just charge blades that come with the DLC, you can get charge guns too.Quote:

What? More ridiculous then paying 3 million for one SAW?Quote:

It's my opinion that we basically screwed up our own economy and Trion just followed suit.
I'm close to 3k ego and the most amount of scrip I have ever had at one time was 200k. That price means the majority of players won't be able to afford it, it's ridiculous.Quote:

you can get an orange charge blade from t4 lockboxes and If i'm not mistaken it has better stats than the orange sword from the vendor. Don't know if they will change the drop rates on live but I got mine on my first t4 lockbox. Also, you will be rewarded a green charge blade at the end of the DLC storyline.
It appears to have the same stats as the orange vendor one, the reason there's a difference is that annoying bug with vendor values being different from the item once it's in your inventory.Quote:

Is it the same with contracts for the new vendor or did they change how you earn rep with em?
Rep actually comes very fast on the test server. You get 25 rep for finishing an arena with a gold medal. I have 840 Thorn Liro rep on my character. The problem with it is not to accumulate it, but to find uses for it...Quote:

The patch notes did say that scrip earnings will increase.Quote:

im getting 3 of them lol
There are contracts too. But yeah, given how the arenas award rep already they seem a little redundant. We'll have to see if things stay the same in the release version though...Quote:

That's Xbox pricing. No one would pay 750k on the other platforms. Xbox pricing is jacked. I am so glad the others aren't like thatQuote:

I think the most I've ever seen anyone spend on an item was 500k for a SAW a few months back at the height of their popularity. Like I said, I'm glad I don't have to worry about Xbox economyQuote:

Lets just say I am happy with my purple one.....
pistols 50-200k (wolfhounds up to a mil)
Shotguns 50-200k (fraggers, grind fraggers and sawed offs can reach up to 5 mil)
AR's are about 150k (craap) - 5 mil (perfect, syphon, canonner, all good rolls)
And SAWS can really change, but they start around 400k and can go up to millions....
wish my grenade cost 200, spent about 800 on it. 4290 max, 2575 min, 24sec, 0.0Quote:

The thing about grenades is that most of the time they are trade onlyQuote:
