First engi mission requires a bunch of blueprints that seem to be a lot rarer than should be intended, according to the community they're worth a good bil or so each, if this is intended then ignore me but if not, they or the mission could use tweaking.

The reason those bps are worth a bill is partly because the are needed for the mission, and hardly anyone does the lower df dgs where these bps will drop.

So the missions should be changed to require some items that players of the appropriate level would be more likely to have found by that time.

^this, by the time I started this mission I was doing deep end w2 dg's, atm i'm now doing early w3's sitting in a Pax astra with a bunch of t16 or less drones and I can't even upgrade to engineer chain transfer drones because they require bp's that are ridiculously expensive, what exactly do they give the player that's worth grinding whatever you count as 'low DF' until you -by chance- get every single one as a drop? Probably the answer is that it's NOT worth it for those rewards, since in my short time as an engineer the only drone I can't use that I would like to be using is a T15 drone for their transference being better than acmes since I don't have the raw credits to buy charges, and think about it, if I had enough to buy said blueprints wouldn't I have enough for two IK20 drones? Why bother, mission is too expensive to consider.

The Holochart Defragmenter apparently requires Station Management 6 to be used. Since it is used in the rather lowlevel mission "Treasure Map" though, it would make much more sense to me if it required e.g. piracy 5.

Could we possibly get a relook at how much elect regen the Poseidon Trident has?

It is unable to charge it's shields without -90/s or more draining it's elect bank.

Always felt that was intentional. The poor thing would kill itself all the time if it could power its RR.

Not saying it should have the elect regen to power it's RR and regen, just at least enough to regen it's shields without draining all it's elect to 0 first.

Fixed, although in future these should really go on the Speeling Error thread in dev notes.

Whoops, I didn't check if it's the right thread.

UrQa Suqqa Vazuk requires 19 in the SD skill before it can be used.... by the time someone has the SP for SD 19, they're in a T20 ship. Should be reduced to SD 10 or something.

The same goes for most items with a classs restriction.

Funnily enough 10 was the exact number I was thinking of, yes.

Venusian Drone
Charge required: 19,000 (1,900 charging)

It has higher energy cost than the titan drone, but has about equal DPS (or even lower) than it. Maybe decrease energy cost and buff its stats a bit?
