hey i just reactivated my account and i havent played sense the graphical update i think that was nc2.1. so i went on my ppu and all his stats were reset which is fine but why on earth did my psi core turn into a combat psi core? is there anyway i can get that changed? besides that are there any fallen angels clans on terra anymore? also my chars name is now different then i was about 2 years ago which is odd, but i guess thats another problem for another day.

now my constructor same deal for the most part except his construct tool disappeared :(

my tank has -47 sl so i know back in the day you could get that up by running missions but i tried doing that and that doesn't seem to work. 3 missions gave me +1 sl? can i just leave him logged on in his apt? i think that used to work

Some possible answers for your questions :)

The change in your Psi Core is down to the Neocron 2.2 update which reworked the item system and item balance/calculations and so some chips were split in half to create more specialist chips.

Originally the chips were swapped by the GM Team but now as they are freely available you should be able to do a straight trade in game with a player looking for the aggressive chip over the passive version.

In regards to active clans, take a look towards the Terra Forum (http://forum.neocron.com/forumdisplay.php?f=164) and ask around.

For your name changes and possible item loss i can't help but please e-mail helpdesk@neocron.com and they should be able to check any changes to your character names and possibly indicate why any items may have gotten lost.

As for your soul light you can find information about the most recent Sl System modification and ways in which you can restore your SL in this announcement (http://forum.neocron.com/showthread.php?t=140058).

Hope that helps.

Welcome back!


First the psi core issue:-
That's one of the implants KK split to passive and aggressive, all psi core's where converted on balancing to Aggressive (Combat Core) with an option to swop it manually, no longer available.

Name Change? No idea unless it was tasteless, but then would have to have been bad as i see some corkers running around!!

CST tool gone? Never heard of that maybe check everywhere first, i thought i'd lost my DS imp was going mad until i found it in my dam processor :lol:

Negative SL, missions is the only way or idle, Try res cube missions can buy some of a resser.

Good Luck

Dam beat to it :p

another round of questions:

is there anyway to transfer money?

why are nanites so slow at healing or am i doing something wrong?

and lastly what happened to the implants is there some way to figure out how i got 2.14 dex from an implant?

Transfer money from char to char? nope, other than through a trusted friend

all heals where re-balanced, so no nanite while seems slow is in effect ok. Holy heal nerf went down well too :p

All implants where changed stats, requirements etc. Biotech MOVEON used be in demand now its trash...... either read the hell out of the balancing forum or take the short cut ---http://forum.neocron.com/showthread.php?p=2101680&highlight=skill#post2101680

yet another stupid question

does weapon lore effect weapon damage now ? what have tech combat? anyone have any idea how much weapon lore you need on a high tech rifle spy?

On my rifle spy, I generally spec enough to poke my PPR in with a spy 3, and put the rest into wep lore.

T-C primarily aids frequency, wep lore aids aiming, and r-c damage - but all three are kind of intermingled.

so t-c does something now ? hmmm i really have been away for quite some time. guess ill give up on poking to tl 115. also does that mean theres no way to spec pistol combat on a constructor? to level with ?



another random question, what is the suggested way of gaining money on an isolated constructor with no construct tool. hes the only one thats FA but my monk that is equally as poor. is anyone on the server known to be trustworthy that could help someone out transferring some cash ?

I did not know that T-C aids frequency. Does anyone know how this works (i.e caps etc)?

There are no caps as such.

High-tech weapons are now affected by TC as detailed here (http://forum.neocron.com/showthread.php?t=136817).
TC now affects reticle lock and speed, frequency, range and handling.
However as a result PC and WEP have a slightly lower affect in those areas.

In all it means the performance per total points skilled for a low-tech and high-tech of the same TL should be the same (unlike before).

I have about 115 TC on my Judge PE. The added benefit is that when my pistol 1 buff runs, I can still use my weapon.

You may also note that PSU doesn't affect freq or range on psi modules, thus you really don't need much or any on a PPU unless you want a bit more mana.
Many PPUs hack or poke now.

Many spies too now poke, as the high level nanite shields require a lot of imp as a req.

Heals are a lot less powerful because KK finally realised they were what really killed PvP, especially holy heal and to some extent the crazy tl 10 that PEs and spies ran about with.
The tl 10 is the best one they can use now, but it's pretty weak and only really for healing when there's no immediate danger. Nanites are faster, but they use 'ammo'.

Ahah. I had better get my tc up a little high.

You need to balance you TC and your PC/RC correctly. More TC means more freq, but the loss of PC/RC means a loss in dmg, the curves are slightly different, and there's a jump in freq just before a total TC value of the weapons PC/RC req. Of course it depends on the base TC and PC values you have.
I would go with base 50 TC, there's plenty of +TC stuff about. I'd say get 100 total TC overall.
