Jrgsubzero Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I don't want to put a reactor, catalyst, or much less forma in anything because there might be a prime version later that will completely invalidate that decision and I'll end up wasting money/time.

Definitegj Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Use reactor, catalyst, forma only on prime weapons. Problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avantria Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) You're worrying about a version of a weapon you like getting a prime version, cause then you'll have wasted time and money in the non-prime version? You must be hoping that no new weapons come out at all then, for fear of liking them better as well and making anything you put time and money in obsolete. I can't see this being a real issue, if you don't like to put time and money into multiple things, how are you even playing this game?

Arlayn Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 So.... if you have no plans to stick catalyst, and reactors in... that means your gear is weaker then advanced ones... which means you would have a hard time leveling them between 20-30... which means maxing out that mastery rank will be difficult... which could also mean you are not interested in increasing mastery rank, which means your not interested in higher rank weapons which would be better, and more effective then primes since the chances of prime versions of the clan weapons are very slim...

There's a difference between clan weapons and a shinier and better version of the exact gun you're using. Also, who actually has problems leveling on this game? Who actually has to put a catalyst on a weapon to level them? Really? Edited July 21, 2013 by Jrgsubzero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, who actually has problems leveling on this game? appearance, polarization, and a small boost in stats... vs. A better gun in general such as Ogris, or Supra... edit: or Acrid Edit: I have plenty of problems leveling... before I reset my account I stopped using the mire immeditly since I couldn't stick a catalyst in it... didn't get my hands on one at the time... So its like... well mire is a terrible weapon done using it... After reset I stuck a catalyst in it finally and enjoyed it... so HUGE difference... edit: its like a thing... I can't use a weapon unless it has a catalyst in it... otherwise it just irks me... Edited July 21, 2013 by Arlayn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levels up pretty quickly in defense missions or mobile defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x1MW1xGRILLMASTERx Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I think I have a solution to your problem. Don't put a reactor, catalyst, or much less forma in anything other than research or prime weapons... Did you really need to make a thread about this...
