Thread: Price Difference Thermal Dets/Imperial Dets
Also, is the damage difference noticable? (I've heard that GBNs drop quicker with Imp Dets
)
imperial detonators, spd 3.4, damage 1000 - 2100, AP1, Blast Damage (field tactics 3)
thermal detonators, spd 3.6, damage 850 - 1700, AP2, Blast damage(field tactics 4)
As far as price goes.....guess that depends on the server and what the resources are spawning like there. On Ahazi, they both are usually priced the same. I get mine for 37,500 per crate for both.....
However I use thermals and power them up.....they do about 2k - 4k damage on baz nitches. Imp detontators do about 4.5k damage for me when powered up but there's been a shortage of them lately and everyone seems to be making thermals...so I buy them.
Also, c22's are a lot cheaper and not that much of a drop in damage....I find that when I power them up, they do just a couple of hundred points less damage than unpowered thermals.....buying crates of c22's and pups are a lot cheaper than just buy crates of thermals or imp detonators.
My c22's look like this:
c-22, spd 3.6, damage 330 - 1500, AP1,blast damage (novice commando)
I power them up and get the max to 1900....only drawback is that you sometimes do less than 1000 damage, but not very often....matter of fact I finished off my last million xp with nothing but powered up c22's....they only cost me 20,000 per crate.
As far as thermals and imp detonators go.....there really isn't that big of a difference to me because my server has the resources and weaponsmiths who are willing to make them.....the available resources is probably the most important factor when considering the price.
Just make sure you shop around, there are some greedy WS out there.....one guy on my server was selling c22's for 150k per crate.....LOL....I laughed all the way to naboo to Giaman's shop and found thermals for 37,500 per crate....
Don't settle for the first few prices you see......ask around, shop around, make a post in your galaxies trade forums, ask friends....if you see a commando or grenadier....ask them where they get their nades from and then and only then should you commit to a particular price......it takes time...but it will save you millions in the long run becuase it will cost you MILLIONS to grind with nades.
