Duelist Drama?

Apparently there is some foul being removing all the duelists from TRI stations to sell them overpriced-like at his station. I'll be working to put some Vanadium in Grizwald's Gallows in Aman Gate for people wanting to make the optics needed to make more duelies.

Pretty lengthy whine over on JOSSH. I think it's ironic that in order to protest a borked econ one needs to protest by stripping. If the econ was truly borked (in the way claimed), all you'd need to do is stop producing.

absolutely true... also, M E C will be making duelist production an emergency project, even though producing items that there were hundreds, if not thousands of available less than 24 hours ago is really not part of our mission.

Its a timeline thing. Things in jumpgate happen slower than real life.

Honestly, by the time they get the duelist plant up to producing more at a time, there will be small monkeys in the jungles of borneo who will have evolved opposable thumbs, created fire, the wheel, the motor car, the rocket, space travel and a duelist manufacturing plant of their own in geostationary orbit of our blessed planet. Then this geo-orbiting space monkey duelist factory will become the defacto base of all monkey kind and from there they show their uberness for world domination by bombarding us poor bald apes below with their poo, poo that will ignite on entry to the worlds atmosphere. And then my friends, we shall all die under a burning hailstorm of flaming monkey ****e... You mark my words!!!!

Interesting... as, other than an RP reason to do so... all we need is a GM to flip a little # in a database and production will increase. Amazingly enough, we don't even need a patch to do it either. OMC worked and got the production lines at Hype upgraded for the MS and it went from 1 to 8. I'm sure something similar could be done with duelists. Sounds like a job for a new company who's goal is to advance the technology of humanity...

Problem is no one but OMC knew that was possible because they're very hush-hush. Now they won't work with anyone else like that for the duelists because that would like them giving in to this turd's stunt.

Could have been worse. He could have taken them all and then splashed them into a POS in quant space.

true algore, and Grim, i think after this blows over, there may be something done with it. I know i'm not going to approach the duelist company about this immediately, but i will certainly be doing so sometime. TBH, I didn't know that Duelies only produced 1 per, or that probably would have been the very first thing i would have pmed GMK/the company about. At the moment, i'm just going to try to keep production going on them, and find a couple more employees for my squad.

I think it's down right comical how he said 50k exp for a prodboost was a big waste of exp. Only Opti's can do it, and they don't need exp for anything. Hell, I take a crap and TRI gives me 50k more useless exp.

i'm not an opti, but by the time i hit opti, i'll be close to a couple of big medals that would give me 1.1 mil exp. That's 22 Prodboosts. Also, a prodboost costs 10 naut kills, or one set of mining missions if you topped off and get a good cycle. FMs also pay out big exp.
