Less than Half Upgrade Cost and Unrestricted Upgrade
40% Upgrade cost (50% in Veteran) and Unrestricted Upgrades
Reduced Upgrade Cost & Unrestricted Weapon/Armor Upgrades
Description
Reduce upgrade cost to 40% (50% with Veteran difficulty 1.25 multiplier)
And shout out to Unrestricted Equipment Upgrades by FESilencer
This combination aims to make:
1. Every set of upgraded armor more cost effective,
less incentivized to rush for PSZ-9I Falcon, as upgraded PSZ-7 Military Body Armor is perfectly fine till heavy-rad/psi area.
2. Smoother gear progression, Koupon can be spent on early armor set without feeling too wasteful.
3. No longer forced to do errant for bartender or artifacts run in order to stay away from bankruptcy.
4. Encounter wouldn’t result in a firm deficit, just because you took a few hits.
5. Better roleplay experience, less min/maxing, dripping the zone.
