I have no doubt CCP can port that over. The problem is how. With character progression and certain changes to mechanics and stats taking place, we have no idea how much those AUR items will be changed once they transfer over.

I've a few of these left (faction packs etc), and I'd hate for my money to be lost to the ether, particularly if everything else is carrying over.
Would definitely appreciate an answer, and doubly so if it's positive!

CCP has no idea. It is more complicated than you might think. First off, no Aurum modules exist in Legion. Okay so how does CCP handle this? An Aurum refund, right? Well... there's the problem.

Does anyone remember when the game was in beta? They stated multiple times that there would be an Aurum refund for everything spent once the game came out of beta and was launched though not for boosters obviously. However, that did not happen. The reason was likely due to the Militia Blueprints. You see, they used to cost about a tenth of their final price but CCP increased the prices quite a bit; like 30 Aurum to 4,800 Aurm. If they would have refunded, they would either have people with hundreds of thousands of free Aurum or people with a fraction of what they were supposed to get. So that did not happen.

Legion has the same problem. For the lottery, Jadek Menaheim has over 40,000 Aurum items to be given to the winner. Steelmine HMG's, Vapor Locus Grenades, Aurum Madrugars. One of the reasons he has so much is that those items were on sale over a year ago. So how does CCP go about refunding him? They may be able to tell "This account bought a pack of Aurum that cost X amount of dollars" but they surely cannot know how he spent that Aurum. He may have bought 9,000 Steelmines for 50 Aurum a piece or he may have paid 25. Can they know for sure?

Jeez, how many of us have Aurum Forge Guns and HMG's from Operation Mauler? Do we get free Aurum for that?

My Sever and Raven suits are not that bad. I paid 19,400 AUR each. That can be refunded easily enough.

What about my 350 1.5dn Myofibril Stimulants that I got as part of buying all my Mercenary Packs? Those were never made available for Aurum. If I am to lose those, am I getting anything for it? I mean, the value of the 20 dollars I put into each pack was based on having those modules, something they were keen to tell me could not be attained anywhere else. So do those go poof? Same with my Dragonfly suits and Toxin SMG's.

Worse one: Dren/Covenant pack. Straight 100 dollars for BPO suits that will NOT exist in Legion. I don't see CCP going "here's 100 back"; what is a no skill required Cal Assault, Gal Scout, Amarr Heavy, Min Logi, Shotgun, Swarm Launcher, Plasma Rifle, Scrambler Pistol, and LAV BPO worth? You may say "100 dollar Aurum pack" but I didn't buy a 100 dollar Aurum pack. That is like Walmart coming into my house, taking back my 100 dollar limited edition tea set and giving me a 100 dollar gift card for "Tea Set Sellers."

It really is a mess and I don't see it ending well for us customers. I have an eerie sense of peace about it because I know I am going to be absolutely, 100% screwed. It is just a matter of how bad it will be; "will it be a tiny micro fastener or an industrial auger?" is the only question I have left.

Think about it this way: there will be no market in the way it has been implemented on PS3. All items have to be looted from our scavenging/pve/wild pvp areas and then traded between players.

Again, no weapon or module will be available for AURUM or give you any type of leapfrogging through the Progression.

To Maken Tosch:

Bolded for emphasis. So maybe you are correct that they just won't be sold.

It is true that they could port over Aurum gear and just accept that they will be around for a while but never to return. That does work to an extent. The issue is the idea of "boosting it to prototype"; what if you have both prototype and non-prototype Aurum modules? It would mean that the person that bought normal modules is getting off easier than the person that loaded up on prototype modules; "HIS investment is worth more than mine even though we both put in the same amount of Aurum; he just bought 1,000 basic modules when I bought 700 prototype modules."

That still leaves BPO's. You still have the people with loads of Militia BPO's because they were like 30 AUR and become 4,800 AUR. Some people stockpiled hard on those things when the change was announced. People that bought 10,000 AUR worth (5 dollars) would suddenly get 700+ dollars worth of Aurum. They didn't know how to handle it back in beta and I doubt after a year of more player transactions if they could now. The Aurum Dropsuit BPO's like Skinweave, Raven, Sever, Valor, etc. are easy enough; Aurum for Aurum. Dren, Covenant, Starter Pack Plasma Rifle, and Mercenary pack though... sheesh, the Templar set.

I'd feel bad for CCP if I weren't over the barrel on this one.
