But not jokingly, I just bought 16 heavies less than 2 weeks ago. I shouldn't have to replace them already. And I do pay maintenance everyday on these bad boys, my gripe is with paying an architech that should have experimented and use good materials top price to only find that I have to re-pay for what should have been done anyway. (which is a moot point if they nerf everything pre-path to a set standard anyway. I bet you won't find many architechs willing to trade me the defunct 16 I just bought for 16 good ones though. Hmmm...





Who said you had to replace them? Old harvesters STILL work and STILL generate huge profits.


And no, an architect SHOULD have been using crap to build those 16, and not experimenting becuase I'm sure you paid a very low cr/unit on those and you get for what you paid for.


And you won't get and exchange of old harvesters for newer ones because the newers ones are better. If you want that extra few kg/hr, then make some money with the ones you have, sell them, and buy 16 new ones...


So you have nothing to gripe about, and while resource miners aren't Bantha Poo-do in my opinion, they don't have any reason to complain.

Ahh, I see, so a miner gets what is coming to them, too bad life happens. But it is ok for an architech to still expectminers to sell resources at the same price to them so they can increase the price for the same resources they used previously. And to further this, since miners can produce MORE resources, they should sell for less also so the architech can make a bigger profit?? So far, all I've seen is sucks to be a miner, glad I'm an architech cause now I can charge them for more stuff. I'm gonna be very surprised if architechs ever get over the 3cpu problem. Why, because in the long run, people don't care if you experimented, they will require it and they will require your price be back near the 3cpu model that they are used to. I really would like to see a single architech sell a heavy at 7kgh for 150k in a month from now. It won't happen. That 30k resources will be worth less than the 3k used in the medium that will be selling for 10-20k. Interesting eh??
