Powerplay Collapse Mechanics

[CMDR Dazirius]

Afternoon all,

Has anyone been able to spot any *specifics* on the power collapse mechanics?

It seems to be the case from the docs that a power in the bottom three and fails to expand is at some unspecified risk of collapse, and that subsequent cycles of no expansion increase that risk by another unspecified amount.

It'd be nice if these values could be revealed. I'd settle for hinted at, but rough numbers would be good.

We need a pathway that shows the exact timescales and process involved - otherwise the players of the lower rated powers are left out in the cold.

Actually, just knowing what's what would be fine.

If the process is "We (FD) decide who to drop but we'll go by the least expanded." that would be a rubbish way of doing it, but I'd accept that as an answer if it were true.

Hopefully it's something a bit more systematic and predictable, but whatever it is, sharing is caring.

If Power=Doughnuts, then CC Shield Cell Hack.

If Power=Corgi's, then Sith Life Regeneration.

Frontier plays the numbers behind powerplay really close to the chest it seems.
