Base building missions need to be extremely well layied out and put a lot of emphasis on colony building, empire creation and be heavily story line based.

That's my hope. =) I was brought on with the idea that I'd help make some of the lower level content & base building is my main focus. I'm hoping to have a preview of my new base tutorial zone by the time the 1 week temp universe starts (though don't quote me on that, my non-ss life is fairly busy), and then use that week to fix up stuff. If I do this right we should be able to expand on this zone in the future and create more base focused content. Once I have something fairly concrete I'll show it off, and I'd love to get any feedback you all have.

You can get multiple levels from one mission, thankfully. I was getting about 1.8k exp from the pax exploration missions. It was fun listening to the doubled level up noise.

Remote control is perhaps the most powerful skill in the game -- probably contending with drone deployment. It doesn't make sense that you can get it for just a flat few skill points each, and it doesn't make sense that an extremely low level character can put together a massively powerful slave swarm if they have enough money. Requiring pilot 16 to get RC 16 and a large swarm does not seem like it's unreasonable.


In client 2 with the new skill point system you have you will need to wait and work quite a bit to even think about slaves. This is about level 50 - 60.

Now if you want to require us to also get piloting of this level you won't see anybody with slaves up until they are level 120+.

The money to piece together two Helga slaves or so isn't a lot at all.

At low level, AI base gear does fine, and at low level a slave which is a copy of you is 2x your DPS, for 3 or 6 extra SP. Another slave is 3x your DPS.

It's like bringing back the old Multifiring skill but making it cost 3SP per level for people without AT or class skills


I would say about 10 Mil to build two Helga Slaves from scratch (excluding the cost of skills to use these slaves). The cost is not what i'm going to quest though. It's the amount of skill points needed to even do this.

I can't go and look at a list of what each of the skills cost but we have all played the beta and we know that to even get to that point in the game where you will have enough skill points and money two helga slaves would not even help you because at this point whatever AI you are fighting would destroy you regardless.

Great move, although can you still only get a max of one level per mission? Or was that fixed?


I'm getting 1.4k+ XP from pax missions now.

Right, but before no matter if you got like 3k XP, you would only gain one level. I am just making sure it's fixed.

PB brings up a good point. Star Sonata missions suck. They involve killing X amount of Y AI, or bringing Z of W items.

They're boring.

Then why are you complaining about something you don't do? Thats like going to a resturant, ordering some food, then throwing it on the waiter complaining its shit without actually trying it.

No, they are giving you the option to do missions for a good amount of experience points instead of only powerleveling on AI.
