I have 6500 aurum and nothing worth using it on, I can wait for better gear. The mag bpo suits(any gear above standard should never be bpo, imho. Standard bpo=buy, adv/proto bpo=rage at pay to win, so far nothing has been pay-to-win) and boosters are only thing I find worth it so far.
I bought the merc pack, love the dragonfly and toxin smg, mainly used aur for boosters last build. Spend a lot to try stuff with left over just before new build, bought more to check if mag suits were bpo or ridiculous price bpc few days before reset. |

The mag bpo did have an advantage of being standard level that don't cost isk, no worse then dragonfly. As long as bpo stay at the militia/standard level the advantage will be small, bpo of adv or proto could be unbalancing by removing risk/reward from tiers. Standard and militia are not far apart, and it raises the floor only a little, still worth using adv when you have unlimited standard maybe even a little more with savings from not buying standard suits. |

aur dropsuits are reskins with no benefit, gold one can be any level not just proto.
Other items allow easier fitting or lower skill levels, both can be done by grinding sp for most part. All aur proto and max fitting skills could cram more on suit, not much gain and makes a expensive fit.
The mag bpo were reskins of standard drop suits in this build before the skill reset, valor scout/raven assault/sever logi.
The small advantage of max skills combined with aur gear will avoid being pay-to-win by being a small advantage and aurum items being resold to make isk. That is how to buy isk with aurum, buy something you think you can sell easy. keeping a player market stable and working is one of CCP strengths, in this area dust and eve will function very much thee same.(they'll have to since this will be one of the points the games connect at) |
