Ok I have a green uncommon Photon Grenade Mk V, stats are as follows...
190.1 Kinetic Damage
Now I can buy a Mk IX mod for Photon Grenade from a vendor... sure it is common but still it is a Mk IX. 4 ranks higher, stats are as follow...
Damage on that is 175.6 Kinetic Damage
All other stats are the same.
So a rank 5 green is better than a rank 9 common kit mod?
Or do I not see any skill bonus till I own the kit mod? Cause I dont think thats the case... my rally cry and suppressing fire stats are the same when I compare the mods I have equipped to the mods on the vendor. These are the same ranks and quality.
I think the only think mk of frames determines is the number of modules it can hold. It might also modify any rarity mods by some amount, but since you're comparing it to a white, it won't matter. See if you can't find a [Gren] green frame of higher mk in the exchange, and compare them.
See I had the Green Mk V Photon Grenade from a ground drop on Nimbus...
finished the FE and got the purple tactical kit frame as a reward...
noticed the dmg difference from the vendor grenade.
I did buy the common rally cry and suppression fire... those when slotted had the exact same stats as on ones listed on the vendor.
not gonna waste 4k on a item that has lower stats just to check. but i'll check the exchange and see if i can find a green and compare later tonight.
however i did notice that the turrets you can deploy now suck compared to the old version... my engineer use to be able to drop a rank 3 turret... now i can slot a mk 11 turret but it does lower dps than my old mk 9 kit that dropped a rank 3 turret. guess i need to find a mk 11 rank 3 turret?

unlike consoles or weapons... quality upgrades gives a vastly higher improvement than going up a rank or 2.
