Nighthawk:
"Recent discovery: "Omegaton A100 Series Parts", seems to be a disassembled A10x amp with 30PED TT."

Is it a tier system for amps? like if you use a dante for long enough, you can make it more efficient or something?

Or maybe.... you saw nothing here..

It's on the auction atm if someone is curious to see what it is.
 
I guess that you need something like the mutated aurli bone to actually do the upgrade. Question is just now what item.

Putting my guess on something from Cyclops Depths :p
 
Lexus Axel Laonna is the first colonist to discover Human Skull. Item discovered in Cyclops Depths! A record has been added to the Hall of Fame.

Somebody is really out of ideas. Come on, look in the mirror?
 
well a marcinex brain oil just looted a rare item loot in the cyclops dungeon.

maybe that's needed to improve weapon amps?
 
I would love a list of amps that can be improved/upgraded

Some way to find out? Does info specify anything?

Only laser amps as BLP amps already is that much stronger?

I have no idea what MA has thought here and I really do want to know, very nice new feature :)
 
I hope that we find out what they can be turned into soon. And that the A10x series amps that are consumed will re-drop in loot :)

I wonder if fouls will drop a104 again :D

I don't think the thing s ending up upgraded will be amps. Amps are not weapons. the refined amps will somehow combine with high level weapons to make even more uber weapons.

Say 1000 A100 amp parts + merc -> adj merc. 1000 A100 parts + Adj merc - imp merc. 1000 a100 parts + imp merc -> mod merc.

And greed will work to remove most of A10x amps from game.
 
What does this actually mean for laser amplifiers?

If it requires old amps and the amps are then lost, that doesn't make much sense....
 
Dante not possible

Apparently works only for looted stuff.

Getting rid of old UL stuff without angering players too much makes pretty much sense for MA. I always wondered why they changed the tiering system that required secondary items. Maybe they decided to come up with something more subtle...
 
What are the parts???? Can someone actually have the balls to refine something pls?

the "parts" are what the refined amp turn into you then take those parts to an NPC (currently unknown) and a special turn in "mission" will show up when you have all the parts(refined amp parts and who knows what else, probably the "rare" items found in the new instance) required for the upgraded amp in your inventory at the time you talk to the NPC.

these seem to work in the same way as the adj/imp/mod 5b and 6a plates. :yup:

So a lot of speculation atm and a lot of resellers buying up amps atm based on this assumption. Great. Hope its worth destroying old amps for these new ones, cause imo I don't think its worth doing, simply cause the A10x series amps no longer drop in loot. So yeah my 2pecs...
 
for people that bought up all the a10# amps, those wont be the rare part. MU will come back down soon enough.

This is exactly what MA is thinking...how are more players not seeing this? Guarantee MA is not doing this to benefit the players and/or dropping more A10x amps in loots. Same with 5b plates.
 
Same with 5b plates.

5B plates are crafted not looted so you really cant "run out" of 5B plates unless one component the bp needs is no longer looted
