    Another great dose of content by the Ark team. These weapon upgrades might stimulate miners and hunters to get busy again so they supply the weapon crafters.

    Generally good news, but kinda dislike the change to the daily missions... the rewawrd in UA was kinda a guarantee of breaking even (if playing eco), now it's just like hunting anything else...

    Folks, I've just put a bunch of the low level upgraded weapons on auction to test the market. Search for Herman MK. No BO so if you are in a hurry contact me directly and we can work out a price (they won't be any lower than the listed SB though).

    Someone should make a thread (which should become a sticky, obviously) about the new improved guns, sorted after level/type, with info on what buffs they provide.

    As I'm only on stage II on the payback mission, it means I can't contribute much in this regard..

    Thank you so much for posting, hejcior! Great effort indeed :)

    Very interesting.
    I assume only a selection from each series will be available for upgrading, and not every single ranged weapon? Hmm, remains to be seen I guess.
    No upgrade for melee? Maybe in the future then.

    No, TT of both guns is similar. For upgrade you will need to pay 7.5 PED TT Songkra Plating, this means about 8 PED with MU.
    8 PED = 16% additional MU for gun below.

    At first glance it doesn't look very attractive, because this is just a loss, in additional to MU of the crafted gun (24% in KikkiJikki Shop or about 10% market value). Do not forget 10% of the game taxes, and 50-80% crapnel in the hunting loot, and you'll understand what this means.

    It seems obvious to me that the intent was to improve the attractiveness of crafted items which kept losing out in competition with looted ones that had better economy. This was a long-standing complaint which has now been addressed, and in a laudible, constructive manner i.m.o. Taking away or reducing item loots instead would just have shifted discontent to the other side.

    I also like unlimited gear, but it can't come that cheap anymore without crashing everything built up over the years. Demanding this is a very self-centered view. Calypso is making new offers there based on reviving old-school gear, if you care to take a look. I'm sure the A-team has and takes a complementing approach rather than a "me too" style of competition. :thumbsup:

    This is going to be good for the MU of treasure. It will hopefully increase demand for the base weapons but I am reserving my judgement on that. Also good to see the link back to ifn rank requirements, adding some more incentive to continue the mission chain. I had stopped after reaching sergeant and now need to consider resuming progress. You know that most ubers and high level crafters won't have progressed very far. So there is an opportunity here for people who have put in the hours are now set to reap the potential rewards.
