bring back rebalanced salvage weapon researching

[deltanedas]

About the PR

• changes salvage equipment from tier 1 to tier 2 arsenal, 10k points
• pka is roundstart and in the secfab/emagged lathes, costs gold instead of silver
• crushers have recipes again and are in the secfab/emagged lathes, theyre more expensive than before
• added fauna protection module to the tech, has a one-handed pka and a crusher dagger
• removed shovel from mining module since on master its the go-to 0-tc weapon module and has no use for actual mining

Why / Balance

• pka is roundstart gear that you can both buy more of and find tons of on debris
• you can easily find glaives and daggers on debris and ruins so being able to research them isnt game breaking
• for war ops, its a tier 2 so you can't immediately get it and it has to compete with xray cannons so you wont see everyone making 20 glaives
• nonantags cant make them at all and antags either have to emag their lathe making it discoverable or steal a secfab, so its difficult
• fauna module has a pka so you can safely shoot fish sharks etc later into the round (usually at the end given nobody researches arsenal right now) but also so you have unlimited flight thats better than grappling hook recoil (its really annoying to use)
  since its a t2 arsenal tech it will be hard for the shadow factory to equip every borg with it

Media

pka roundstart and uses gold instead of silver

glaive is expensive, not an issue for salv that want to flesh out their teams weapons but will be an issue for shitters

borg pka is real

module icon is even more real

Requirements

Making these researchable just- removes some progression again. Also, I guarantee, some salvs will refuse to do their jobs until these are researched.

[deltanedas]

you can get them roundstart just by doing debris, its more for if you get really unlucky and cant get enough for the whole team. salv not doing their job has always been a player issue and qm should fire them, you dont need to wait 2 hours for a glaive just to kill debris fish

no more sci PKA how will I ever powergame now (battlemechs)

[Golinth]

I’m imagining mass Borg armies with PKA and the dagger. Sounds like a nightmare as security tbh.

[deltanedas]

for that to happen you need to let the secfab get stolen or let sci keep an emagged lathe, and it would still be incredibly obvious (like renaming the ai sat beacon to The Shadow Factory)

tbf a scientist can just fuck up the camera, emag the lathe, then print a few modules, unemag the lathe via deconstruction, repair camera and then boom no trace

there was a pr for making emagged lathes have a special board so you cant just hide it in 3 seconds
