Thats because rebel perks are by default, more expensive. You had 2 discounts applying to the rebel perks, hence why they fell in line. You had the CoA bonus and the smuggler bonus. With the imperial side, you just have the smuggler bonus.





i know. my point was that the faction perk prices haven't changed.

aaaah. ok I thought when you said "hadn't noticed any changes" you meant changes from switching from one faction to the other

yay for agreeing.

i probably could have worded it better.

when i was a reb got the 30%

now that i'm an imp i get the 25% yet it still says 30%. makes me laugh. (my factory still has the rebel logo beside it too.)

but no changes in the price of faction perks.

hmm. so the modifer text in the window when talking to a recruiter only gave me a 5% discount as being a master smuggler?

biceps used to cost me 1050 now 1500. non smugglers used to cost 1400 now 2000. so we benefit with no bonus while the imperials are losing the war? cause a normal guy would get a 30% off if were losing. ?







huh? could you please explain. it's early and i haven't had enough caffeine to wake all the way up.


are you saying that you lost your discount?

I'm having trouble understanding him as well.

1) Imp faction points are a huge seller. I've made over 2 mill just in faction sales some nights.

2) Who did you have checking the prices? A human? or another race? A bicep for a human will cost 1400 fp. for a master smuggler (human) will cost 1050. Any other race it will be double that.

I've not seen a change, though I'm a rebel.


I don't think anything has changed that's outside the normal mechanics of the game.

All i noticed was the difference of the "old" cost (something around 7089 fp) and the "new" cost (around 11k fp) for an atst.

So, if i get this right, this means between publish 9.x and publish 10 they increased the fp cost by over 50% and only because there are more imperials on bloodfin then rebels?

Im a human master smuggler and imperial colonel.

It may be dumb to ask, but i dont exactly know the mechanics behind the faction perk pricing, so please can someone enlighten me?

Thanks.
