Ibro156 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Like Snipetron and the Machete be tradeable in the player market? Yes, no. If so, why? Edited March 21, 2016 by Ibro156 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdunSaveMe Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) I don't see why not, I guess I suppose it removes part of the exclusiveness, but exclusiveness is stupid anyway, because being a special snowflake means nothing.

MagPrime Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 With the Sortie weapons, (and i think the Formorian ones?) Being tradeable, I don't see why we still have the trade restrictions on rarer weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niennah Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Snipetron and machete are not vaulted. They are retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matto Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I remember I bought a few Gorgon, Snipetron and Machete BP before they get retired, hoping that some day I would trade them. I used to keep Vauban's BPs too for the same purpose. I sold them all, such a disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or was that a Wraith variant? I just remember a lot of resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah, true, but we didn't get a Snipetron BP for like a year (I think). So wouldn't be nice to make them tradeable to players. #GreedyCorpusRules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I want newer players to experience the greatness that is the Snipetron Vandal, it always feels like I'm firing an ancient relic when using it and I think that handing it out to newer players will remove that feeling for me...

I understand what your saying. When I really get bored, I take it during T4 survivals for the sh1t and giggles. But there are players who would want to have the same feeling. This can be said about Prime Access syadnanas, sigils, armour and etc. But as I own Snipetron Vadel itself, I don't see the point of building a weaker version. I rather give it to a friend or a new player. 4 minutes ago, Skycook3y said: About five months. Project Undermine was in October. Dam. Really? Maybe DE should another type of events for retired weapons. So everyone has a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So everyone has a chance Btw. could you test the shot combo counter on the Vandal for me? Because I'd like to see if it's just a bug for me but the Snipetron Vandal Shot combo counter was raised from 1 shot to get the 1.5x, to 3 shots for 1.5x, 9 shots for 2.0x and 27 shots for 2.5x multiplier. Needless to say I'm a bit pissed about this because there was no need to nerf the Snipetron Vandal. Also there's nothing in the patch notes about this so I'm assuming it's either a bug or a stealth nerf. Edited March 21, 2016 by Skycook3y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)robotwars7 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 heh, I remember when I lost out on a few hundred Ducats because I bought an Extra Machete Wraith back when Baro had it, thinking it was tradeable. never understood why they can't just make all the event weapons tradeable, especially since many of them are still only average, unless you Forma them to the max. exclusivity is the only real reason, but that just breeds toxicity most of the time. I've always been against denying people more content just because they weren't on at a particular time. to think, I had 2 full sets of the Imperator Vandal after the last Formorian alert, I could have made so much plat....

I mean it would make sense to make them tradeable because the really rare stuff would already be leveled so there's no chance that anybody could get them anyway and it would give people the opportunity to get their hands on some of the reappearing stuff. The really rare stuff being weapons such as the Latron Wraith and the Snipetorn Vandal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)AngelShur Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 So from reading through the replies I can derive that you want them (alerts) to be more frequent? Since only then the BP amount circulating would be increased so that people with surpluses can also trade them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
