Hello all, I am looking for a little advice. I am having a hard time hitting 6k on protects for battle armor. The best cores i have managed to run are at 5559. My resources are in the same general range, so I am wondering which would be better to try and improve.

My segments are coming out at 921 using the following. Stats are listed as OQ/SR...

Steel 910 / 918

Aluminum 956 / 820

Polymer 875 / 952

Wooly Hide 905 / 877

The cores using these segments and the following resources come out at 5959...

Bristley Hide 920 / 918

Fiberplast 837 / 962

Extrusive Ore 911 / 937

Copper 980 / 470

Amorphous 998 / 817

I am wondering which resource I should go after first to try and improve these cores up to 5600. It would look like the Beyrllius Copper was the weak point, but I haven't ever seen it with an SR much higher, and it makes the quality bar almost full green on its slot. Would i be better off looking at improving the segments or the resources in the cores.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Increase your steel and polymer at the segment stage first. They will make a big difference since 25 units out of a possible 35 units per segment come from these and any increase is multiplied by 3 since 3 segments are used per core.

After this, go for your fiberplast and ore at the core stage, better ones should be possible to find. Your bery copper will not get much better than you already have.

I bet you 100 bucks your core resources are fine - battle is the hardest in my opinion because of the gated resources. I barely cap with 945 segs. Its all about the segments.

grats. good all you needed was the steel (gapisok most likely) because if you needed poly to bring up the segs, you would most likely have to sell your soul...we haven't had any good poly for ages.

look at your segments closely, if you aren't capping on your cores and your core resources are good poly is usually key in getting your cores to cap. I know it sounds like alot of money 25cpu but it isn't and if it takes that to cap, be prepared to spend the money.

Agreed, polymer is now one of the most important resources I think. It can make a huge difference to segment resources given that its nearly half the result and that in turn can contribute a lot at the core stage. An uber polymer came in on farstar a few weeks back just as I was running out of my previous stuff and my segments jumped from 940-950 to 980's My other segment resources are very good as well, even the hide. Once you have the good polymer and steel its then time to work on the non ferrous and hide.
