Offer BPs to craft awesome gear that actually is competitive.
they should just overhaul the existing L items.
There's no point in pumping out new BPs for L items, like the armatrix amps, when they make the old L items, like shear/bulltac, obsolete....
with that said, the pre-armatrix amps and weapons need an efficiency overhaul too.
They could just make all L amps 85% efficiency, diversity can be created by other means.
Hootfoot 25 (L) and shack-a-lacka laser amp MK-I (L) has something like that already.
Hootfoot 25 - currently:
- 59.8% efficency
- 130 PED max-TT
- uses ammo + decay
shack-a-lacka - currently:
- 65.8% efficiency
- 79 PED max-TT
- only decay
even if both had the same efficiency, they are designed for different "needs"....
a 3rd alternative could (like shear XR whatever):
- 250 PED max-TT amp
- lower decay but higher ammo consumption than the hotfoot
Then there would be the short-lasting for "small" money shack-a-lacka, the medium lasting for "medium" money hotfoot and the long-lasting for "big" money shear XR, as example.
