or
6th armor (Tau Ceti) maybe 127%(?) = 871.093 Cryo (27% increase) if the armor should nearly cost as much as the Neon ships alone = 3.914.488 Cryo investment to get an parsec to that point + additional 1.5 Million for the full Perc loadout if we talk about a Parsec from bare scratch.
Its actually 128% (rdx armor costs 877,953) which makes it barely more expensive than a neon ship (r85) and cheaper than neon ship + r91 armor
I have checked the increase for parsec and RDX ships and in both cases it gives no difference about the %-increase. Sure RDX ships are slightly more expensive but they have no difference in that point aside from the cryo costs
[...]
So with some offical information you are correct about the 28% increase so that the armor prices for Parsecs are sligthly lower (
864.512 Cryo) and RDX are slightly higher (
877.922 Cryo). Only exception of Parsecs is the Emp that has nearly the same costs as an RDX ship (
877.952 Cryo)
In terms of the TC ships the armors are as expected 50% of the purchase price

As i mentioned it in the previous post already "relative" cus of the investment you have to do before you reach that point.
If you go from purchase to TC Armor a Parsec costs
2.323.375 Cryonite and an RDX
2.359.495 Cryonite without any items.
So if a player has to decide between TC ship and Parsec/RDX it´s the "smarter" move to go for the TC ship rather then going for the Parsec/RDX.
A TC Ship + Thermo in compare costs
1.305.006 Cryonite without any items.
The items are around 1.437.774 Cryonite +-5k difference so in total:
TC Ship with Thermo + Perc Items =
2.742.780 Cryonite
Parsec with TC Armor + Perc Items =
4.401.070 Cryonite
RDX with TC Armor + Perc Items =
4.455.981 Cryonite
Parsec/RDX ships only then would get "cheaper" if the won´t recieve another Armor with TC Part 3 or 4 cus otherwise they stay higher in price. BUT again Parsecs are a long time investment and not a short one. They only start to pay off the longer you have them in compare to an new system ship purchase.
