The ARX conundrum (How it's rewarded)

[Ezren]

I can see us all fapping our wings in this thread (my self included).

Keep your fantasies to yourself.

Is ARX addiction already a thing?
obsessing, needing, bargaining.

One of the reasons I broke down and bought some Arx is so I wouldn't obsess about how my activities might or might not earn Arx. Now I don't care and can focus on game play I enjoy rather than play that earns the most Arx.

If I was FDEV I'd have diminishing returns so anyone trying to min-max grind ARX ran straight into a wall.

That's just my sense of humour though.

Random space adventuring seems to work.

Trouble with diminishing returns is that it all but forced a variety of gameplay. Which, for explorers and low-level one-ship folks, can be a real challenge.

If they applied it to actions like outfitting alone, that would be a start.

I am going to use the ARX limit as an indicator to give it a rest and take a break until next week. ::starts scratching arms:: When does that limit reset again? ::twitch:: ::twitch::

Four (4!) bottles of...

Good god man!

I suddenly feel a lot better about my one weekly bottle of Islay single malt.

What can i say, Im Klingon.. Its cultural. We drink alot.
I just really like Gin. Ever seen a Klingon in a smoking Jacket, sipping a Gin and Tonic.

You are one of the last people that i thought would buy ARX.

They are rejoicing at FD Shop HQ "he finally broke !"

I wasn't planning to, but Frontier made it simpler than I was expecting!

I only bought $7 worth, and I still have a bunch left over (I'm a minimalist, so it doesn't take much to paint my fleet).
