Can someone with a fck ton of money run the following experiment for me?
Is it more expensive to grind the “free to play” aspect than to pay?
Step 1: Start a new Star Conflict account and get to rank 15 in Empire, Jericho, and Federation ignoring everything about Ellydium.
Step 2: Remove all electronics except your internet connection and computer from your home (including Airconditioning and your refrigerator etc.). Wait for the start of a new utility bill period before starting the next step.
Step 3: Grind up a rank 15 Thar’Ga, Tai’Kin, and Waz’Got
Step 4: Unplug computer and wifi and wait for the power bill to come.
Step 5: Start a new Star Conflict account and buy everything you need for the three ships to get them to r15.
Step 6: Compare price and share data.

This experiment doesn’t make sense. On one of my alts I just maxed out all normal ships with 1040 hours in game and 155 hours in battle. I haven’t touch the Ellydium tree till last week (last Sunday to be exact) and I have all resources to get Tharga to lvl 15. In the meantime I was accepting Ellydium missions to get node resources and I was playing some specops to unlock special modules, so I have the required resources to unlock all special modules and considering how fast is the hourly elly mission to fulfill on lower ranks - the only real barrier is synergy and credits. Which you will hit even with purchasing all resources. Of course if you want to purchase synergy as well - then $100 will give you something between 1 and 2 millions of synergy or 20 million credits. Considering that yesterday I finally started to upgrade Waz’got and Tai’kin and got them both to rank 8 with 500k and 100k synergy to spare respectively, I would say that free option will be much cheaper.

You got all resources to get Thar’Ga to rank 15,even with those limit caps in place? I doubt that 350 to 700 Alien composite blocks are enough to get it to Rank 15.
Thar’Ga costs overall:
Thar’Ga’s Workshop blueprints - Credit cost in total: 61000000
Thar’Ga - Credit cost for 100% researched/unlocked ship in total: 326710000
Thar’Ga - Credit cost, including the Workshop blueprints in total: 383210000
Thar’Ga - Alien composite block - cost in total: 1950

Thar’Ga Fighter structure in total: 10
Monocrystal in total: 25
Metal blank in total: 50
Graphite plate in total: 30
I don’t want to unlock all modules, the task was to get it to rank 15.
Spoiler
As you can see that’s only 495 points more. I have 300 points available right there with the total cost of less than hundred xenocrystals and less than 200k synergy and 2.5 million credits.Considering I have over 2k xenocrystals on that account, I doesn’t seem to be a problem.
Spoiler
Hope it helps ”)
PS. you don’t need free synergy to upgrade Ellydium ships if you play them and earn normal synergy that way.
