Hey Cmdrs

that Sirious Corp Powerbonus on Outfitting sounds so good that I´m having difficulties to ignore it! I would also like to join our Manga princess, but the outfitting discount would REALLY save me money for outfitting my conda to A rating. Also the 20% bonus on high tech goods sounds nice. And on top you get 200% Bonus on exploring payouts (even if a top ranking is required and it would obviously take some time). So the sirious package sounds quite nice, didn´t even need somekind of power specific weapon to join them. Have I overseen something, or is this fraction quite nice?

Sorry Im a bit slow.

Do you mean you don't need to sign up to get the benefits?

Can you spell it out for a simple old chap.

Applies to ALL pilots who visit their control systems. (IIRC)

Nope. This would be a game mechanic. If you aren't supposed to do it, it will get patched or changed.

Tell that to all the people who were making 10% on modules by buying stuff from Shinrarta and dumping it in LFT 926. Most everyone who made more than a certain amount doing this had their balances adjusted.

If it's not a game mechanic, you cannot exploit it, in the sense we are talking about.

If you aren't supposed to do it, knowingly doing it is by definition cheating via exploitation of unintended or buggy features.

Are the passive discount for certain power's systems still active?

I noticed it yesterday, and have been trading as fast as possible to buy
an A8 power generator, and save about 20million.

Modules "remember" their buying price, you will sell them for exactly the same as you have bought them, no matter where you go. I have seen this first hand with the Founders world 10% discount.

What are the High Tech goods ? Performance Enhancers and Progenitor Cells ? Or is it the item under "Technology", like "Bioreducen lichen" and H.E. Suits ?

Somewhat off topic but as I can't play for more than five minutes without getting slung off the server why not: I am very amused that FD decided that there should be a power entity called the Sirius Corporation. The name is just too similar to the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation, which many on here will recall was the manufacturer of Marvin the Paranoid Android and insufferably smug AI equipped doors. The corporation was of course made up of a bunch of mindless jerks who were the first against the wall when the revolution came. Maybe the devs were having a sly joke when they included the name, either way they have landed a faction with a lot of baggage.

I´m just in Diaguandri, Ray Gatway in Li-Yong Rui Space and it appears that the 15% discount applies on outfittings including weapons and also all ships in Li-Yong-Rui Space. That´s quite OP and will probably be fixed really soon. Anaconda is 125 million, phyton 48 million. Ray Gatway has 15 ships to decided from including t9 but not FDL. You don´t need to be part of the Power to gain access to these discounts. I suggest everybody takes a look soon.....

Sirius Corp. Have actually had several Android CEOs in the past, before the AI ban.
At lest one of them turned mad.

Has anyone found a decent outfitting system for the more expensive kit? Looking to trade in some of my Python & Annie modules & rebuy a bit cheaper. Have tried a few in Li Yong space but no luck so far.
