Now, Im not saying Im against getting nice weapons, Im just saying its understandable how this works.

(I know you have to "pay" components to get the weapons, but come on, that would only slow you down a bit in upgrading the warbarge)

It's understandable that you'll be wasting at least 2/3rds of your produced goods unless you spend $????

Remember that you also have to use the components elsewhere.

Ok, maybe I wasnt clear, you are getting goods, but the warbarge doesnt only give weapons, it also gives damage bonus, extra sp, extra isk and I dont know what else. If you want to upgrade the warbarge, you need to sacrifice something else, in this case not to get all the weapons you want. Of course, you could get the weapons, but that would imply to wait in order to upgrade the warbarge. I see no problem with that, and of course, there is that of the AUR, but with or without the warbarge, people who pay are going to keep doing it if it means to get better equipment faster. The warbarge is just a new way to do it, and well, what can we do about it? Just suit up and go kill them.

Thor Odinson42 Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 6024	Posted - 2015.02.06 19:52:00 - [1] - Quote Level Bonus Per Day Capacity 0 1 2 1 2 4 2 3 6 3 4 8 4 5 10 5 6 12 The rumor is that Experimental Weapons will cost 200 warbarge components (WBCs). So you'll need 1000 WBCs to redeem your 5 items each day, BUT the L5 factory only produces 600 per day. If we assume that Officer Weapons at L5 are also 200 WBCs then you are looking at a choice to either waste 3 of your 6 produced items each day AND not be able to save for future upgrades elsewhere OR spend AUR. Officer Weapons will obviously cost more to redeem so you are looking at only being able to claim 1-2 of those weapons per day unless you choose to spend AUR.

It's not written anywhere, but it's been confirmed in game. I'm just not 100% certain what it costs to redeem.

The choice should be between stockpiling WBCs for upgrades OR to redeem all of your weapons. I could totally buy into not being able to stockpile WBCs if you choose to redeem all of your weapons, but spending AUR should be a choice to upgrade faster not operate the mechanics of the system.

Not that reinstalling is overly tempting...but I've considered it for this reason. Well at the very least you should be able to produce enough WBCs to redeem the stuff you are producing. If a player is NOT willing to spend AUR to upgrade then they should totally 100% disregard this feature. It simply won't happen for them. It would take YEARS and/or farming a bunch of alts (assuming we actually get player trading) to upgrade the barge as it is.
