Keep in mind weapons are decaying 3 times faster now too....so folks will be real upset if you raise prices.
Like us chefs....we could raise prices but until everyone does it won't mean much......the market will only bear prices so high...

How many people are going to raise their prices to reflect the increased time to make both parts and weapons?
So far I have the following examples:
- Advanced Vibro Blade Units - old rate was 5.3 minutes per unit (88 hours for 1000 units) The new Rate is 6.9 minutes per unit (115 hours for 1000 units)
- Advanced Blaster Rifle Barrel - old rate was2.9 minutes per unit (48 hours for 1000 units) The new rate is4.5 minutes per unit (75 hours for 1000 units)
- Advanced Projectile Rifle Barrel - old rate was 1.5 minutes per unit (25 hours for 1000 units) The new rate is 2.3 minutes per unit (38 hours for 1000 units)
But this is just a small example of what has happened with factory times. But this is a huge increase on manufacturing times.

My prices are already high.. I usually do large runs that take days anyway so another day won't make a difference to me.
I just set 1000 blade vibro units (advanced) in my fac, little over 4 days to make those....

Yeah I use my factories like that roster thing on TV too. "Set it and forget it"

Curious as to how many points you experiment at once.
Everything I craft in chef and BE has gone up a set amount for each experimentation. 1 experimentation is 8 seconds per item so 2.2 hours. Your posting a time of 13-27 hour increase. My worse food increased 7 hours(3 experiments, 7 points, 4 points, 1 point).
Is it about a 2.2 hour increase for each additional complexity for weapons as well or is it higher?

Same here, If you want the best....pay like the rest, is my thinking. Also I usualy have over 1k weapons waiting to be sliced , I also don't carry munitions, so the increase wont effect me all that much.
Even with the increased time I managed to slice-n-price 200 new weapons bringing my main vendor to almost 500 sliced weapons.
