Now that these Major regens Major shield charges and Major hypo's are commodities required daily.... for the reputation projects please change them to stackables of 250 like the other commodities. And allow them to be boughten in stacks of 100 like the other commodities.
We cant be running to the merchant every day on all our tunes to make 15 stacks of 20 this is unreasonable clickhappy TRIBBLE.
Thanks for your consideration in this matter.

The o3 - Killed you good
or middle finger up them
Make players grind until their eyes bleed or make them pay through the urethra. We don't care how you milk them dry, just make sure that milking them dry until their nipples petrify and fall off is your only goal. Don't deviate from this goal unless you'd rather be on the bread line." - Prime Directive from PWE

Yes we need a lot of those now but they are, and always will be, consumables, can you realistically imagine your away team members running around encumbered by 250 Large Hypos and 250 Major Regenerators?
Besides it's likely the only way they could do this is to make all consumables stack to 250 and all reality go out the air lock...250 shield/weap/etc batteries equiped on ships, 250 deployables, and all that.
They've already lowered the time and requirement which is a good thing but come on, how much effort is it to beam down to New Romulous and visit the vendor there that sell just those when you are likely gonna be there anyways for dailies.
EDIT: the project is to send supplies, not support the efforts...e.g. send a barge full of corn to a country for processing and distributing vs send a truck load of cased canned corn for disaster relief such as after a hurricane or such...supplies vs commodities, they take up different amount of space.
To be fair, realistically, I can't picture myself carrying around 100 Hypos, 500 Shield Generators, 500 Warp Coils, 500 Industrial Replicators... But I do. You can't say no because it's not realistic, when in fact, nothing we carry around in our inventories is realistic.
I say if they don't increase stack size for these items, then at the very least they should be available in more places than ESD, First City, DS9 and now New Romulus. I mean, most of the time I'm at Nukara, or Defera, or perhaps even on my Starbase that I'm shelling out through the teeth for. Can't any of these places have somebody selling consumables, as even for non reputation situations, it's irritating when you run out of large hypos and have to take a trip all the way back to ESD to pick some up when really, I could have used a replicator on my ship like they would in the show.
Really? Because the only listed ones are ESD, First City, New Romulus and DS9. Tell me where else they can be purchased.
I cannot agree more!!!
If you're concerned about buying commodities you should join the "Call Tuffli" chat channel. It's very useful to receive bridge invites on Tuffli Freighters where you can buy ALL the commodities you need at Special Vendor prices (- 25% off). It's quite fast to find all the commodities you need.
I could be wrong, but I think there is a vendor on Memory Alpha as well.
Obviously some of those are faction specific.
Yeah my friend told me about this yesterday. Been playing for almost three years and didn't even know this existed. Normally I use the freighters next to the Kei system for the expensive things like shield gens etc.
Thanks, none of those are places I frequent and they aren't listed on the Wiki as places which sell Hypos etc so that's good to know for when I'm in those areas. I do still think that Nukara Base command, our Fleet Starbases and Defera could use some vendors for these items though.
Just make it a EC cost instead.
It also has the added benefit of being in the neutral zone nearby to Nukara Prime, as is Drozana. While it would be nice to have them planet side. It's not that much of a journey when compared to ESD!
I too would like proper vendors, not the fake ones that are really the replicator..... an exchange console would also be a nice feature, after all you need a gift shop in your museum! LOL
Because these purchases are what's justifying the ~40 mil I paid at the time I got it for my Tuffli... By the time I finish the reputation tracks on most of my toons, I'd have "saved" 40 mil getting my commodities off the Tuffli instead of playing "track the vendor"...
Keep in mind the varying costs, 75% "list" off Tuffli and "specialty" vendors, 100% "list" at all other vendors that sell the commodity, 125% "list" from the replicator - and then there's the various ferengi discounts (racial trait, D'Kora set, etc.).
As far as hypos / regenerators go, don't forget there's also "grinding" them through ground mission loot drops. That makes them effectively "free"...
Side note - I don't store hypos etc. on my active away team, I store them on the 6-8 other BOffs sitting back on my ship. This way, they don't get "burnt" on an away team, even having 24 stacks of these from this trick saves me needing a bank expansion... :P
