This is a great concept. Hopefully CCP considers it (or at least something along these lines) when they "fix" BPOs.
I shelled out for the elite pack when they first went on the market, and my determination to get my money's worth is what has kept me from abandoning Dust like so many others have. When I heard that BPO items "weren't safe" I worried that it would be the last nail in the coffin.
An ever growing stack of gear you could sell on the market would be a great compliment to the passive SP as a way to draw back in players who have left.

It will really depend on what BPOs the player has. I use my dren assault and scout suits enough that I might burn through 25 in a day; the logi and sentinal suits that came with them get brought out once or twice a month, tops.
I don't think too many people who bought the elite pack actually use everything in it. Not everyone who bought the veteran pack uses those covenant sniper rifles. If you bought more than one type of pack you probably have some redundancy as well; a collector like Pent'noir might have Exile, Toxin and Dren assault rifles, but won't go through 75 ARs each day... they can take them to the market and collect a few of the items they don't have. |

We don't carry a huge arsenal around with us, we manufacture one item at a time at the point of use.
Supply Depots and CRUs don't contain a huge armory, they have basic materials and use your BPC or BPO license to authorize the construction of an item.
It would still work. Instead of an infinite number of licences for a particular item, we just get X number of licenses per day. |

:/ Bpo's have the SAME stats as basic equipment. The ONLY difference is higher CPU/PG usage I run my bpo's 23/7 That's because it's militia gear, which as the SAME stats as basic equipment, but with higher CPU/PG Last I checked, militia dropsuits and weapons were worse than their standard counterparts.
Militia weapons will have worse CPU/PG requirements, and usually a smaller magazine (48 rounds for a militia AR vs 60 on a standard) but I think damage/RoF is the same. Militia modules (with a few exceptions) provide the same bonus as their standard versions, but with higher fitting costs.
Most of the BPOs from the Mercenary/Veteran/Elite packs are standard though... and I'm pretty sure some of those items (Toxin SMG?) were available on the in-game market for aurum. |
