A Suggestion for a New Amp that Requires Eidolon Shard to Shoot

Here's what i have in mind:

  • Make an Amp that requires special magazine crafted from eidolon shard variants.
  • The higher the shard tier, the higher the damage that the Amp has. Probably different magazine blueprint for different shard tier is needed to differentiate the crafted magazine tier.
  • The usage of the magazine is by installing it to the Amp just like the way players install Amp arcanes.

The reason behind this idea is to make use of the Eidolon Shard variants as the magazine for an Amp. I am sure some players already have eidolon shards piled up in their inventory, especially the regular eidolon shard. heck! I even saw an MR 9 player already has ±200 capture count on hidrolyst recently.

And knowing DE even if you use the highest tier shard it'll still be:

  1. Made so rare that it won't even be worth using;
  2. Very low damage, making it not even worth using.

Besides different people have different stockpiles. I don't really see this ammo mechanic as a great thing tbh, even if it doesn't particularly affect me.

They have the option to put it in NPC(like Onko/LD)'s offering. Whether it is worth using or not, we don't know.

Again, we don't know. The devs might have a different opinion.

Aye, we don't know. But if that really mattered to forum discussions there'd be none. Guess is all we can do. I just gave my thoughts on how I think it'd happen, given my experience with the game. 

But it's still valid feedback, nonetheless.

shards, dont think so, cores i think so

This can be a good option to this idea considering the amount of cores we get after capturing eidolons are higher than the shards.

Using Hydrolyst Drops to hunt Hydrolyst seems pretty stupid...

Does it? :clem: Could it be that converting eidolon shards to get focus points so that you can spend it on your focus school to make you stronger and able to capture Hydrolyst faster also seems pretty stupid to you?

Focus schools arent comparable to using shards as wasted potential

Once you have maxed out your schools. Those drops will keep piling in your inventory and OP's suggestion is a good way for some sort of shard sink.

The Empyrean demo has already shown this type of resource sink by using excess resources to temporarily boost the Railjack.

The wasted potential that i see is this.

I know I only have a small number of shards and cores. I am sure many players in this community have more of those things more than me. but still it is a potential wasted if left to accumulate in inventory.

Yeah man. You get what I mean.

I just thought and hoped that, perhaps, we will get an Amp that performs better which makes use of shards/cores we already gathered in the future update.
