November Addition Round Up

Post by Coops »

I have today posted a series of Dev posts relating to upgrades and new devices added to the CE Universe. Most have been mentioned and talked about during the year and I decided to spend some time this weekend just gone to bring these requests to life.

These are a mixture of items but I figured for those too lazy to read all the posts one at a time + for quick staff reference here they all are in one Post. Some of the Pods and Specials MAY make their way into the Crafting side of CE in the New Year, but for those who have an itch for something Shiny and like to support CE they are here now.


Buddy Bob - BOB-007

This is an Account Upgrade. It's primary purpose is to boost the processing power of the Normal Bob Artifact System. BOB-007 will boost the normal Bob process by up to 35%. In turn this means you will receive BOB awarded Rare Artifacts more frequently (still based on your play time).

As always, the more time you PLAY the game Core-Exiles and take part in general activities more chance you have of being awarded an item.

This Bob acts as as booster to the BOB process. It in no way interacts with ANY other systems or Buddies.

Please Remember you may only enable One BOB-007 Buddy per account.

If purchasing for an Alt or another Captain please state clearly at the time of purchase.

-------------------------------------

Korths Expanse S.B.S V1, 2 and 3 Specials.

These devices (Specials) are designed for those interested in Surveying the Expanse. Normally a Captain has 200 Survey attempts per day. This unit is designed to increase that. (See revisions for details)

It should be noted that this device cannot be removed whilst IN the Expanse.

This technology is new and has not yet been fully approved, but in beta testing, it was seen to work without any major issues. You CAN ONLY fit ONE of these Devices at a time.

This Special is non-transferable.

-------------------------------------

Genesis Research Boost 30% (G.R.B)

This is an account upgrade that deducts a 30% time frame from any research selected at your Genesis Deployment from the Research Screen

It does NOT affect any research currently underway. It does however actively show the research deduction on the Genesis research screen for any Research Topics available. The 30% discount shown is applied when a topic is chosen.

This is a one time account upgrade.
Requirement: Captains account must be Level 40 or above.


As stated above, this is an account upgrade. It will also NOT affect any research currently underway, but will (if active on your account) reduce the research time by 30%. The amount it shaves off the projected research is displayed before activating the research.

Archimedes Device

The Archimedes Device is a clever piece of technology, designed to interface with the Grivoc Industries Rare Ore Refinery units. Normally these devices when deployed are limited to 2000 units at a rate of 10 per hour.

The Archimedes Device bypasses the security lockouts and doubles these affects. If fitted this gives any Rare Refinery deployed at these location a 4,000 unit hopper and a refinery output of 20 per hour.

You must have the pod fitted at the time of Deployment for the process to work. Only required for Deployment.

Hopper Increase +2000 : Units Per Hour +10
Pod Points 1 : Captain Level 35 (Single Fit Pod)


Note: This pod only works on deployments made at Grivoc Industries Rare Ore Refineries.
For refineries already deployed, without the pod fitted, you will need to redeploy them with the pod fitted to get the boost.

This device is a POD. As stated above it ONLY works on Rare Ore Refineries deployed at Grivoc Industries Rare Ore Refinery offices. It also MUST be fitted at the point of deployment for it to activate and affect the lockouts in place. ONCE deployed you can remove it till you need it next time.

Lastly as stated, it does NOT affect currently deployed Refineries. Simply pick them up and redeploy should you wish the bonus added.

-------------------------------------

Locutus Cube - Foundry 1, 2 and 3 Specials.

These devices are aimed at those who frequent and utilise the Core-Exiles Foundry. With this device fitted it will temporarily add computational power to the Foundry. Once fitted this special increases your Foundry Output for BOTH Stage 1 AND Stage 2 processing.

There are Three revisions of the Device.

This technology is new and has not yet been fully approved, but in beta testing, it was seen to work without any major issues. You CAN ONLY fit ONE of these Devices at a time.

This Special is non-transferable.

Lastly, a reminder that CE is kept afloat and development ticking along through your support. 2019 has to have been the toughest year so far. But, a MASSIVE thank you to those of you that dig each month onto your piggy bank and show your support. Support of all sizes big and small matter so thank you! - It's YOUR game...
A Walk in the Woods helps me relax and release the tension from a hard day at the code.
The fact that I'm dragging a body behind me should be irrelevant!
