Pluss 1's are generally worthless as they wont let anyone reach the needed pluss 20 for the two extra points. They are usfull if you have some high end tapes and just need a point or two to fill inn.


Anywhere from 100k to 1M for pluss 1's. Its the pluss 3's and over that make you money (and make me broke).

Ok, I am a relative noob when it comes to tapes and attachments, but when adding attachments to clothing do they not stack???


ie, a 4 socket duster with 4 +1 armor experimentation tapes would be +1 armor experimentation or +4 armor experimentation...?

Attachements are bugged a bit yeah, they dont stack.- If they did, pluss 1's would be OK afterall.


Not 100% sure about how it is, but I belive if you droppes a pluss 1 armor exp on something that allready had pluss 4, the 4 would still stick and the new pluss one would disapear forever.

+1's are not useless. With just five of them a non-master with tech IV can get an extra point to help them make saleable armor on the way to master. With six of them and two +2's you can get an extra point at master. My +10 suit cost around 3.5 million total. That's a much better cost/benefit ratio than the 20-40 million +20 suits. If you don't want to be a hardcore armorsmith but care about quality, a cheap +10 suit is the way to go.


As for the original question, values on +1 tapes seem to hover near 400K. It all depends on how many people are in the market for them.

there are nothing wrong with +1's. it all depend on what other tapes you have and the amount of clothing you can use.


i have a +9 and +10 tape. so a +1 works really well.

Could anyone tell me what a good price for armor experimentation skill tapes are? I have a couple +1 tapes on Starsider.

OK, I'm still confused about these tapes.


If you have 4 slots on a shirt, and put 4 Armor Experimentation +1 tapes in, what do you get, +4 or just +1 in Armor Exp.?


What happens when you try put a +1 then a +4 tape of the same skill in one garment?


Also, if you have a +1 Armor Exp, +2 Knockdown Defense tape, do they both work once you put them on, or just the +2 KD Defense enhancement?


Lastly, do Assembly tapes help any, or should I just concentrate on getting Experimentation tapes?


Thanks all, if you have any other salient information, please share, I just can't seem to find proper info browsing around.
