They're still Standard level, but they'll be equivalent to those Amarr BPOs coming with the collector's edition. The issue isn't the quality of the suits, it's that they weren't necessarily event rewards - they're buyable on market now, and that the upfront skill investment ballooned. Raven and Sever cost a pittance of SP to use pre-uprising; one rank in assault and one rank in logi. The upfront to use both now would be 3.8 million SP and change, and it presupposes you want to spec into both Minmatar medium, Caldari Medium, and Min Logi/Cal Ass.
A current Raven suit is the same stat-wise as a Basic Caldari standard Medium Frame. It's not better than a proto medium frame, the only difference is that it would benefit from the assault racial passives, if you happened to have them. |

You see, these were sold to many players in exchange for AUR, and that's how many people got them.
HOWEVER, I and several other people got them as a free add-on to the Mercenary pack before that, and they were sold to us as a permanent addition to our account. As such, it may actually count as a breach of contract for them to remove or nerf these suits, which would explain why they would leave them in and just ratchet up the SP cost for them.
Personally, I'm just glad their still in the game, I love my Sever suit (and these raven,sever,and valor suits were also a shout-out to the MAG players, as those are the names and colors of the three factions in that game :D)
Also, mine hasn't finished downloading yet, but how is the "dragonfly" dropsuit doing?
Dragonfly remains no-req. You can use it with no points in anything. |

I agree that I wouldn't want people's event items revoked. I don't want them to nerf the suits or rework the skill tree either. I'm basically fine with the investment required for Logis, and whatever. If you got the suits free, I can't imagine you're too broken up that you can't use them.
I think they should be able to check transaction records and just refund the people that actually paid for the suits. I'd just like the spirit/intent of reimbursing for the people that paid for the suits to be honored. |
