The Cost Of Maxing A Mod

[Athens]

The information in this post is outdated

 

This is a list of the least amount of credits needed to upgrade a mod from rank 1 to 8 using Rare 10's and estimating from rank 8 to 10. It takes at least 800k - 1m to boost a mod from rank 0 to 10,and at least 400k - 500k to go from 9 to 10.

 

1 "Rare 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 3 exactly.  Cost = 5,400

3 "Rare 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 4.              Cost = 16,200

5 "Rare 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 5.              Cost = 27,000

9 "Rare 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 6 exactly.  Cost = 48,600

19 "Rare 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 7.            Cost = 102,600

37 "Rare 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 8.            Cost = 199,800

37 "Rare 10" + 60 "Uncommon 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 9. Cost = 415,800

37 "Rare 10" + 120 "Uncommon 10" Fusion Cores upgrade a mod from 0 - 10. Cost = 847,800

 

I only had 5 Rare 10's left which would have taken the mod around 1/6 of the way to rank 9 so i ditched those 5 Rare 10's and used Uncommon 10's instead.

 

The amount of fusion cores you need to boost a mod depends on how many mods you are using. Maxing a mod with lower ranking fusion cores ranging from unmarked common to common 7 and uncommon 5 used 930+ fusion cores and just under 1m credits. Higher level fusion cores will make the overall cost cheaper especially for higher ranks.

would have been nice info if rare 10's and stuff were still around ... and dropping ...

 

otherwise i see it as a hey look at me i has old fusion cores and i'm cool kinda post

So 5,400 per core used, and that's the cheapest option. Since it appears to be equivalent in power to a duplicate mod, and I believe it takes 2036 to obtain every permutation of a rank 10 mod -- less 1 for each of the 11 originals necessary, so 2025 -- that comes out to... 10,935,000 credits. Minimum.

 

 

Edit for clarity: This is the total cost for eleven mods, one at each level 0-10.

I have not seen a 10,935,000,my client added up to 992k using the lowest rated fusion cores including the cores below uncommon 5 and common 3 that are not being dropped anymore,so 1m is still around about the price range for maxing.

They're not? Then I've made a booboo =/
