Post New base items replacements
As stated in an earlier blog, bases will no longer be able to equip items not marked as "base" starting at the next uni reset. This post is to make sure that we have covered all the bases when it comes to replacing a few items that were being used on bases and will no longer be allowed.

Overloaders - We have a new series of Adonis through Annihilator OLs that should cover a wide range of overloader needs. These are designed so that none are a direct upgrade from each other and each fills a OL niche. The BPs are available at Free Market.

Low level shield trans
- We've got Ares and Apollo base shield trans bps now available at all AI bases.

Angel, Artemis aug - The new Spirit base augs cover these roles at t12, as well as a couple new low level base augs. Also, as a note, the T12 spirit aug credit and prom costs are too high and will be drastically lowered in an upcoming patch.

Everlasting Ops Augs - There is a new line of BPs available to replace these, with slightly modified stats.

Items we are intentionally not making replacements for:
Tweaks - for various reasons, we don't consider these balanced on bases

Augs with resist stat - due to how these lengthen fights and interact with healing, resist all damage augs will no longer be available to bases. The resist aug line will however still be used to build some of the new base augs.

If we have missed any items, please reply and let us know!

Currently, its in the drop table with the other Achilles gear bps. We'll probably be changing that soon though with the new BP pack items. We're leaning towards making all of the core base bps available from every ai base, though discussion on the full effects that would have is still ongoing.

Aright. I'll keep spam farming that DF and hopefully I see one before reset.

Seems Ryan forgot to add the Everlasting augmenter replacements.

The blueprints are in the Parthenon in The Acropolis, they're Station Mechanic's, Station Technician's and Station Engineer's Augmenters.

On the subject of those t12 spirit augs, I just cleared the jungle and got 1 crest. Might be worth either increasing their drop rate, or reducing the crest requirement to 1/2 or 1 per aug.

Edit: The old base OLs need a buff.
