I'm out of goats and virgins...making do with chickens and harlots.

You know what's weird too, I just threw some money at Defiance by buying the Erep outfit and some Inventory slots because i actually do like the gulanee arkfalls.
Everytime i do that the next update makes me regret it.........is that on purpose ?

This will make folks reroll individual bonus's more with arkforge though which is a smart move on trions part.

But don't you think it will cost them sales overall now that people can't upgrade to oj and then upgrade ego all the way to 5.8k?

Definitely! People won't bother buying arkforge just to upgrade rating. You can pick up enough for that. Rarity is where the big bucks was at.

Edit: Cr@p, I may have given them the idea to nerf arkforge drops!

When you look at it that way yea, maybe that's why they have done it... To stop you upgrading the rating ego before you up the rarity where it's more expensive. everyone will up the ego level 1st then rarity them change rolls, make em upgrade rating when its already orange = more arkforge

"This is change is not solely about revenue – but at same time we make no secret about it: Defiance is a business – and to be a successful business we need to ensure that our gameplay systems are fun and that they encourage long term play and enjoyment."

Actually to be a successful business you have to keep your customers happy, not pi**ing them off all the time and being greedy.

Trions not being taken over by PWI is it?

and the highest costing rarity upgrade is from purple to orange which is still available... now people can just buy lockboxes to get purples then ark forge to turn them into OJs... and since blues can't be turned into purples than into oranges they will have to buy more lockboxes since purples drop less often

Eh, either way it shouldn't affect me too much. I have my favorite weapons already. I'll just have to grind for the perfect Respark...
