When you are setting up your Fitting, you can compare the different items available to you. What is Meta Level? I've read that it's the "quality" of the item, but it doesn't seem to show in the stats.
For example, when comparing the Militia Assault Rifle, the (Standard) Assault Rifle and the (Advanced) GEK-38 Assault Rifle:
Cost Mil:690 / Std:4000 / Adv:17640
CPU Mil:30 / Std:23 / Adv:47
PG Mil:5 / Std:3 / Adv:6
Damage Mil:30.0 / Std:30.0 / Adv:33.0
Rate of Fire Mil:750.0 / Std:750.0 / Adv:750.0
Accuracy Mil:56.0 / Std:56.0 / Adv:56.6
Clip Size Mil:48 / Std:60 / Adv:60
Max. Ammo Mil:300 / Std:300 / Adv:300
Reload Time Mil:3.5 / Std:3.0 / Adv:3.0
Meta Level Mil:0 / Std:1 / Adv:5
The major difference is in Meta Level, but the actual difference between the standard and advance versions don't seem to warrant the extra costs.
What am I missing?
--edit---
my point is that between the standard and advanced, i pay 441% more ISK, use 204% more CPU, and 200% more PG all for just a 1% increase in accuracy (from 56.0 to 56.6) and 10% increase in damage (from 30 to 33). |

it just seems odd to go from 4,000 ISK to 17,640 ISK just to get in increase from 30 to 33 HP.
why would i pay an extra 13,640 just so that i'm a bigger cash-cow to my enemies when i die? i have entire dropsuit fittings that are less than 13K |

yes, thank you Musta Tornius.
i saw that thread. unfortunately my PS3 is in the living room and my PC is in my office. it's a bit of a pain to run back and forth to compare when i'm trying to setup a dropsuit.
it's great that the info is there and it's obvious that range is taken into effect on the battle field. i just don't know why they don't give us that info in-game. it's not like they make us figure out how many bullets are in a clip by counting them as we shoot. |
