Powerplay LOST MERITS

Marcns007 · Oct 22, 2015

I am fairly sure that I lost 300 merits or more with the last update.

I am now taking screen shots every time I deliver stuff to gain merits.

Just trying to get the 750 level for Prismatic shields.

Anyone had a similar problem.

Did you know you lose roughly 50% of merits every week on a Thursday morning?

Marcns007 · Oct 22, 2015

Nope, I am on 4 weeks and 3 days today so assumed I had 4 days left, its gone to zero, and carried over about 105 merits.
So I don't have a clue what's going on, I had spent credit's to get the media forms.

Err...you didn't 'have' to spend to get the packages? Nice to see the cost has gone down.

Hi, Ben, that's you good deed done for the day.

Were you at Sothis last week, must have been ship loads of credits made there?

300 merits?

10 kills.

Thanks, right rather than pay or wait for the packages I had better find a combat zone that pays merits as I have a combat Python.

Just find a 'resistance pocket' - literally infinite ships to shoot, each kill is worth 10 merits.

I had a little place all to myself and about 300 to 500ly closer

I have not done this since Beta when I thought they were called something else like war zone or something - sorry where are resistance pockets?

would they match up with systems that are being prepared, expansion or control by your particular galactic power?

Are they ever in a system with CZ's? I am still looking - with Aisling Duval

I'm with her as well, they're called 'Crime Sweeps' in systems that we are expanding into.
