Bright Cloud Namtar Elite Gallente Federation 966	Posted - 2015.05.07 19:20:00 - [1] - Quote Since we can actually edit Apex suits i feel that regular BPO suits became redundant. There is just no use for them cause they have less PG+CPU, less slots, less bandwith and no modules prefitted on them. So please explain me why should i get a regular BPO suit if i have allready quite a few apex suits from the LP store? Oh and the pricetag that normal BPO suits would go for with trading went down the hill while the hypothetical price for a apex suit skyrocket. We are probs talking about 100mil ISK+ per suit. You could aswell just get a skin and apply it to the apex suit due to its utility. So it would look like this: -Regular BPO suit= 15~20 mil ISK -Apex suit of any kind= 100~150mil ISK There are some rare exceptions like Templar suits or limited edition BPO suits/Weapons. Ya know the price of the BPO allways depends on its rarity/usefullness. Bright is the opposite of dark! Who would have thought of that?!

Mejt0 Dead Man's Game RUST415 1347	Posted - 2015.05.07 19:57:00 - [4] - Quote They will still be bad compared to normal fits. Normal BPOs have one thing that APEX doesn't. It doesn't look as bad. With APEX, you have to buy a skin unless you enjoy looking at that .. 'thing'. Caldari Loyalist thecreaturehub fan

Knowing that I am going to have 3 Caldari Basic BPO's is weird tho... I can sell two or move them to slot characters... I have around five Dragonfly Scout BPO's so I will have 5 skins and 5 BPO's... IMO Dragonfly scout skins will damned near be worthless. UNLESS... apex guys buy them up to cover up that APEX bling. http://caughtyouflinching.ytmnd.com/

It'll probably be a long time from now when your 'precious' Dragonfly gear becomes a regular BPO. I hope the SKINs change the name of the fit as well. I don't want my 'Quafe' Assault G-I to become a regular Assault with a purple flair... This means my Commando Gk.0 will become a 'Duvolle' Commando Gk.0 if it becomes true, if course.
Sleepy Shadow Qualified Scrub 357	Posted - 2015.05.07 20:56:00 - [9] - Quote There is no point in them, CCP made all non-apex BPOs obsolete with one quick update. Nicely done. I doubt many people would buy regular BPOs anymore, from CCP or through trading. They are so inferior itGÇÖs not even funny. =ƒÿ¦
