Ripley Riley Incorruptibles 7611	Posted - 2015.02.06 15:03:00 - [1] - Quote Community, As of right now we have three methods of earning warbarge components: Mobile factory Randomly from strongboxes (ha!) Random EoM salvage CCP Rattati has stated that some missions will begin to award warbarge components. This is good, but there needs to be more ways to earn components that involve playing Dust 514. I propose that the mobile factory's output should be somehow modified by our activity. Can we pay the factory staff overtime? Effectively making ISK increase the rate at which the factory produces components by a multiplier. The overtime pay only works for 24 hours at a time, but increases the rate at which components are earned very much like the way passive boosters increase the amount of SP earned per day. Anyone else have ways we could earn more components via play rather than pay? "You don't want McSyphilis. Don't nobody want McSyphilis." - One Eyed King

Didn't Rattati say that he wants to have a way to convert junk gear into "nanite fluid" or something? Maybe junk loot gets turned into nanite fluid then that fluid can be used to make components? Not sure how that would work exactly, but the concept is sound. "You don't want McSyphilis. Don't nobody want McSyphilis." - One Eyed King

I opened a strongbox last night and got roughly 300 components. Not a bad reward, to be honest, but it's completely random and it doesn't reward play. That system rewards being a lucky bastard.

Keeping your daily login maxed would result in 25% more production per day? That said, I would rarely see this bonus, but I might try when I'm in town. Dude, this is good stuff. It represents the staff being more productive with their boss looking over their shoulders. Maybe a flat component reward might be easier for CCP to implement though. 50 components per day, to a maximum of 500 per day? "You don't want McSyphilis.

With 400 per day the 25% bonus would be 100 per day. It would only get higher as you upgrade. I would start small, especially if we are going to start seeing components in Daily Missions, as well as more often in EoM salvage. Fair enough. What is the maximum produced components per day? Anyone know? shaman oga wrote: Agreed, every battle should GRANT a minimun amount of components as payout along with isk and SP. Something like 10-15 components per battle. I mean, in skirm and dom missions we are destroying an MCC. Wouldn't some of that wreckage be usage for warbarge components? Makes perfect sense to me. "You don't want McSyphilis.

Awarding the components to the winning team only would further incentivize helping your team instead of AFK'ing. Please, dear sweet 8 pounds 6 ounce baby Jesus I hope Rattati is reading this...

That is until I maxed the warbarge out; though it'll probably still take a good while. The ability to speed up my warbarge construction through victories would turn my 1 - 3 matches per night into 5+ matches. I want the ability to develop my warbarge through hard work, not the ability to wait long periods of time Jack Boost wrote: LET'S RAID ANY DRONE COMPLEX! I wish, homie. I wish.
