I agree. 150% gain seems fair for a free to play game, however 200% gain definitely seems like too much and especially with the price point turns this game more into a pay-to-win game. I've never been a fan of Omegas and have made efforts to sway CCP against them, but at the end of the day they stand to make a lot of money these next two weeks, so eh.
To play devil's advocate, there comes a point where who can't really make your fit that much better than it already is, so all the guys with money trees buying dozens of Omegas are only gaining an advantage in versatility, but still have to choose only one fit at a time. In that sense I can sort of get behind this, so long as CCP takes this money and puts it right back into Dust.
Still, I'd rather Omegas not exist and I would be happy if this is the last time we see them. |

Isn't it a 30 day thing? And you're gaining 24k SP more per day than normal? So 30 x 24 = 720,000 SP. And 36k AUR equates to $18, so
$18 for 720,000 SP
If someone has money falling out their pockets and drops $90 on this for 5 of them, then they just bought themselves 3.6 million SP. |

The Omega gives you 48K SP per day. Regular boosters give you 36k SP per day. No boosters just passive is 24k SP per day. 30 days X 12k SP (the diff. between the Reg and Omega) = 360,000 SP over a month. I'm not making the comparison of one booster to another though. I thought the point of this thread was to discuss if Omegas were pay-to-win or not, and in that regard you have to compare it to the guy who plays for free.
