whats the use of rares now?!

[WRAITH1]

in my opinion before u had a chance to get the rares for a system to help u complete the system.
now withtthe rares systems where u just get parts and very high probability is tht ull finish tht system and move to the next system and tht rare becomes obsolete is very high.

unless ur one on higher sytems and getting bored and wanna complete some ships for cq or aceivements in a lower system i see no more real practical use for rares now.

or is there? areason to waste time getting them if in tht tyme it takes to filla ship type with rares u may finsh the next 2-3 systems.
is it just for bored players now?
just curious
btw-my opinion its a bad game change especially for those tht know how it was before. getting to see a rare gold bp hasnt the same effect of enjoyment as was. and imo its a loss to the game normal evolution cause i dont think a maxed out player going bk to grind for those silly rares has the same benefit as a player going through tht sys and getting the "lucky" rare to ease the finishing of tht system.

Only rare players expect the lucky rare drops, most of players has always grind for the rares and will grind for them in the future as well.

You cannot say the rares has no effect or what so ever when the system is done and players move on to next.
They are still the most powerful ones in each system and gives you the possibility to be stronger.

Cq's and achievements is a part yes where to use the rares. But, have you ever heard of helping other players in their sm's etc. what so many players has always done and some is still doing that, if you help out others with lower rank, it is of huge value that the helper has better items and is stronger than the helped.

Using best items together with skilled player gives you advantages in game, and a lot.

In my memory I have never seen anyone ranting about the rares in this game, nor questioning ever what use they have.

If you do not like the game, then maybe this is not for you then.

Most players I know start looking for rares after they finnished the system anyways and the rest they just leave to lucky drops. Plus you still can get a lucky drop it's just that even if you do you need another few of them to finnish the BP. The pieces ar too many thugh I agree still it's 12 part for a Gemi rare right?

Though I would aggree that outside of CQs and pvp they're relatively useless... I'm still hoping they'll bring the CQs upto scratch to be honest, it's what makes getting the rares so worth it I'd say.

yes but for me the game would b better if u get to use the rares while u actually need them to pass the system as afterwards its in a way game impeding and not all doing cq and whatever. instead of letting noobs get a bone and b able to do their white missions or whatever in their systems all higher sys ships monopolizing lower systems as is to grind nvm for rares tht really sucks as on this acc i retested pg as a noob and what chance has a noob limping along to not get poded from npcs and taking effort to kill even one npc then a higher player comes along and just out of spite/boredom takes the kill and the drop.
imo games shouldnt encourage such gameplay. if i wasnt testing it id b long gone due to the higher players showing off/grinding/whatever on lower sys and not permitting me to evolve sometimes cause they whacking all npcs taking drops whatever.
its not their fault (the higher players i mean)they just playing the game as it permits such even encourages it by these rares now even more.
i as bit experienced from beta know how to combat such high players even "use" them but i dont think of those methods or doing tht amakes for a fun game.
not sure if ya can folow what im trying to say but i said it anyway.lol

The only real reason people go for "rare" bps is to fulfill the ego based desire to have what they perceive as the "best" items to use.
Having such items in a game encourages player to part with money to enable them to "gather" these items for themselves.
End of story!

rares, they are not rare, u kill maybe 100 and they drop, but before u should need 1 rare just 1 to complete 1 rare and everyone was happy with it!

Please, let me laugh.
So you believe you are talking for all players at PG Capn Santa?

You are not talking for me, nor for so many of my friends who actually use the rares to help others on lower systems. I do not use the rares for my ego, never had, off course I have been proud when I have found one, but still it has nothing to do for to show off to others.
Don't think all other players thinks like you!

PROUD?? I rest my case!
