Mateodon Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hopefully resource alerts reduce the number of credit-only alerts and not the blueprint alerts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodKitten Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 hmm, seem like its 1 rare resource, personally thinking it should be a pack of 5-10, for other rare stuff like plastids, should be atleast 500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firetempest Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) well, I can live with a single rare for the reward. Anything is better than only credits. They better have a update on nexus if this is going to be a more common alert. Also letting us select what resource we want alarm for.

TeddyBear Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Whats the reward? How many morphics? Or do you have to break containers and stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Whats the reward? How many morphics? Or do you have to break containers and stuff? The end reward was a single morphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can reliably get the same amount of resources in a run or two of relevant missions, having an alert give it as a reward just seems pointless. I feel it should be a huge boon to your resource piles when an alert pops up. Even if resource rewards become really common, it should be considered a lot of people will only be online for a few hours a day, have the alerts be a way for people to ignore grinding for awhile if they manage to catch one, not just save them a half hour.

It WAS only a mercury alert after all... Cant really judge the whole new resource alerts on the very first one of the lowest level possible.

Hazmatzone Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Ehhh okay after running it the single morphic isn't really worth it in my eyes...but it's too early to tell it'll depend on A) If we will have resource accompanying every alert now B)If the number of the reward is randomly generated and can go higher than just 1 C)If the chance to obtain the specific alert resource is higher in the mission.

Mesane Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 very nice, baby steps, so far this is great, i hope it wasnt a mistake and there are going to be more alerts like this too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant really judge the whole new resource alerts on the very first one of the lowest level possible. True enough, but if some of the resource alerts are going to give more than others, some kind of indication would be nice. Generally speaking what planet it appears on has nothing to do with its difficulty or rewards anyway, and I'm sure the devs are wanting to get feedback on the alerts. Ideally we want a DE staff member to give some sort of explanation as to what's going to be going on with resource alerts soon. Looking at other threads people are even jumping to conclusions that they're going to cut into the number of ? alerts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracorya Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Oh god yes, please alert for plastids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mateodon Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I don't see the issue with a single rare resource. A) It's guaranteed, farming runs are RNG. B) It's still 100x more useful than a credit-only alert. And C) You can still get random drops in the mission, I actually got a total of 2 morphics from the alert (maybe you'd get more from farming a boss, but again RNG).

Annnoth Posted July 30, 2013 Author Share Posted July 30, 2013 Maybe because morphics are needed too much. I'd be fine if only 1 morphic was needed for an item but to make the hate I need 10 morphics, the zoren is 4, the dread is 6, and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you're one closer to your goal than you were before the alert. If I offered you one free morphics would you say "f*ck you, give me ten"?

f3llyn Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Yeah it's nice seeing materials in alerts as long as they don't take the place of other things. To bad I already had 100+ morphics and that was before the crazy weekend of rare material drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
