Destroyer Mark 5 variants - balance the crafting costs!

This is a simple suggestion, which will hopefully get some attention.

Let’s review the crafting costs for a Meson Cannon 11 Mark 5 and a Coilgun 11 Mark 5 variants.

 

Meson Cannon 11 Mark 5 :

    1  Mark 4 Meson Cannon 11

100  monocrystals

  50  neodium plates

  30  screened batteries

  20  processing blocks

 

Coilgun 11 Mark 5 :

    1  Mark 4 Coilgun 11

100  monocrystals

  50  neodium plates

  30  computing chips

  20  graphite plates

 

Remember that the cost is now 10 times higher than it should be, if you compare it the rest of Mark 5 variants!

Either increase the cost for the rest of Mark 5 weapons and modules , or adjust and balance it with the rest of Mark 5s’. I advise that you match it with the others and reduce it accordingly.

 

Just for reference. One rank 8 Destroyer needs 32 neodium plates. One rank 11 Destroyer needs 20 neodium plates. I mean, it costs more than a Destroyer itself and it gives less than 2% in damage output!

However, it seems that if nothing else, at least neodium plates cost should be reduced by 90%.

I tend to think the monocrystals should perhaps be lowered, but i do believe the cost in neodium is too high for sure.

 

(wow my name still says dyn? shows how often i post on here…)

I was not expecting to see some one with _DYN ever again…

Another reason I don’t use those autistic mk5 weapons for anything,almost no dmg increase for some insane prices,thanks but I’d rather save my resources for the T5 destroyer,and I’ve seen people that were flying R7 ships that weren’t even full synergized and still had mk5 weapons,sometimes even the n00bs spam those,lets not talk about the mk5 Flux Phaser,AKA " Cancer2".So in conclusion, NEVER CRAFT MK5 WEAPONS!

Unless you snipe regularly. Damage depends on your weapon quality, after all. Still wouldn’t do it unless I had the extra monos, though, so eh.

Covops plasma web damage is also affected by weapon level.

If you need that tiny little bit of extra damage, you’re not using plasma web correctly :stuck_out_tongue:

It also applies to the Guided torps and Disintegrator,well,not like i would care about that extra damage after all,heh…

Rank 11 Mark 5 Halo Launcher blueprint is missing!
