games patching right now cant see it

its the cost show on the tier for completing the tier itself

Not projects to buy stuff its the cost to complete the tier

Are you sure you're not counting the number of XP points?
A pair of projects will award you 2800 points

I believe you're confusing that with the XP required. It's 100,000 XP for Tier 5 Romulan rep. That's approximately 36 projects (2000xp and 800xp).

If we guestimate 50 marks per set on average across all 5 tiers, that's 1800 total Romulan Marks.

If we assume the only source is the daily, that's a total of 30 runs.

To buy stuff, will obviously require many more runs since many of the items cost 500+ marks.

But just to reach tier 5 it's not to bad.

That's what I'm thinking, you can see the exp requirements for each tier but it doesn't show you how many marks you'll need to complete it.

Well, ignoring provisioning and equipment projects, tier one requires 17 marks for the 2000 XP project and 9 marks for the 800 XP project. In tier two, these projects increase in cost to 20 and 10 marks, respectively. They're 28 and 14 in tier 3.

Assuming a 40% increase for subsequent tiers, in T4 those XP projects will cost 40/20 and in T5 they might cost 56/28 marks. But that's speculative since I haven't seen the T4 or T5 costs.

So, in the last tier, you'll have to earn 84 marks per day just to advance the system, ignoring any equipment you may want. That's not an easy pace to maintain for the Romulan system, but is certainly doable (Tau Dewa patrol + one area on the ground).

Estimating the total cost of reaching tier 5... I come up with 2172 marks, solely for advancement. That also ignores the upgrade project you run each tier, which is 10 marks for t1 and 20 for t2. If it doubles each tier, that'll be 160 more marks.

Elder Epohhs are worth 400 marks. They're easy to raise, only cost you time.

I think that is the total amount of all the Tiers. Tier 1= 5000 + Tier 2= 15000 +Tier 3 = 32500 etc.

They will probably lower T5 a bit if the complaints get bad enough, but is the system designed so that a person can do 1 project per day in the last tier?
