You missed something, Duc...

We can group with droids now in orbit for the xp boost (I think), which is then compounded by the inspiration award.

Yay for the first sign that Prestige will never be worth a goddamned useful thing (due to if it ever will be, people abusing this to take advantage of it), plus the fact that it's pretty difficult for Privateers and non-JSFed Imperials to get that bonus.

Not sure how to respond to that. On one hand, with a master pilot bonus, the xp is kinda irrellvant. Although for first timers i'll bet it would help alot.

As for prestigue....why have it? DS? Not really. You can pop in and out of DS all day and never run out of prestigue. The cost to enter DS isn't anything large enough to be relevant.

I got killed in a PVP battle last week largely because I didn't have the prestige to get fixed up in DS between waves

On the upside, no more wounds (BF was out the door for everyone) means that multi-exploding bug that's been hitting some people won't really cause any problems anymore.

Surely you jest. With as little as 4,200,000 prestigue saved up, you could go to deepspace 10 times a day, for the next two weeks.

Heh, no joke. I'd just mastered Inquisition the night before and didn't have the brains to realize I might want to go to Deep Space in a hurry at some point. So I get to the station (we were fighting in Endor), try to hyper.. and get rejected. I killed the nearby spawns, but only got up to 21K prestige.

Then when I tried to rejoin my group I got ganked over Endor station, lol.

>>I'd just mastered Inquisition the night before


hadn't thought of that. Done that a few times myself acutally. still though, prestigue's existance is kinda pointless. I've surrender as much as 50 million on one of my masteries and not bat an eyelash about it.

Hey, what were we supposed to think when you came flying almost straight at us and we still had pilots loading?

What am I, crazy? As soon as you guys came up on radar I pulled up to figure out where you were going.. which seemed to be straight at ME

You all's hyper point must have been right between Claw Station and Endor station. Sucks for me, lol.

Yeah, and once you pop into deepspace you have to kill, what, 3 fighters, to completely pay for your visit?
