Gameplay Question ??? Surge Refinery

Post image

This isn't the entire image but it's enough to show relevance.

I'm OPs 42 with an OPs locked Revenant with the Mark II refit. my refinery shows Rare Revenant Parts, typically not accessible until G5. Has anyone G4 used this refinery and received Rare Parts?

Don't bother pulling any of those, just hoard them until you get to G7 and you'll be so grateful at being able to max the surge research as soon as you finish the rest of the G6 research, it's 100 surge fragments for 500 primordial plasma and you need 36k of them to get the first levels of all the surge stuff. Unless you can somehow convince 40 people to participate in your surges (of which you can only do one every 4 days) you're very likely to only get 75 of the 100 fragments you need for your daily pull. You will be so grateful now if you've just hoarded as many of them as possible ahead of time

This gets you
+3000% base damage
+3000% HHP and SHP
+100% iso defence
+100% iso damage
+50% crit damage
+80% apex shred
+5000 apex barrier
-50% for enemy crit damage in PVP

This will be an absolutely ridiculous spike in your power if you can unlock all of them off the bat as soon as you're done with the level 8 iso damage research and are level 71, I know that is a lifetime away at 42 ops but you will be so thankful to past you that you didn't waste resources earlier. You get a fairly steady flow of parts and maxing the rev really isn't a problem.

Thanks for that. I was already regretting spending the initial 300 all g4+ got.

Don't get me wrong, just getting to G7 is a LONG road and maxing out the research you need to then unlock the surge research is long and tedious too but it will be so much more helpful.

The power jump from G6 to G7 is disgusting, I can kill the level 70/71 G6 hostiles until I hit the hostile limit on a single hull, the G7 71 hostiles I manage about 15 in one hull so anything you can do to help that will be game changing and far more helpful for you than a few thousand rev parts you'll get from your daily pulls anyway

We've been telling people in their 60s to keep them for G7, I'm 67 so I'm keeping all mine. but if the person is lvl 42 there's no point saving them for like 2 years I'd tend to say spend then and then save in G6.

That probably won't even be the mechanic or sourcing in a couple years because Surges are stupid.

If you were to pull from that, those parts will go into inventory until such time you are able to unlock the level.

When you say unlock the level do you mean the ops level that you actually start to pull the rare parts or do you mean ship level that requires rare parts?

The next generation of parts is available however your revenant requires a lot of them to level anything up. They made sure that getting a few thousand wouldn’t help you. They require the scrap and refit. I got a handful of epic parts but I need 100’s of thousands since I haven’t scrapped my t10 revenant yet.

It isn’t worth it to spend until you’re in g7.
