NEWS UPDATE: The Scrapyard rebuild + Syndicate Crate

UPDATE: THE SCRAPYARD REBUILD + SYNDICATE CRATE

The Black Market Scrapyard got a full rebuild. Wrecks are worth more on a good day, there is a weekly bounty to hunt, and scrapping now feeds a workbench that builds Military Heatsinks.

THE CRUSHER

• Pick your wrecks. Tick exactly which broken rigs go into the press. No more all or nothing.
• Scrap price of the day: somewhere between x0.80 and x1.40, with the last 7 days on a chart. Sell on a good day or wait for one.
• Underground Mechanic now adds +2% to scrap payouts per level.
• Supply Drops: cheap wrecks have a small chance, expensive ones up to 40%. The yard hands out at most 5 drops per week.
• Every run ends with a printed receipt: what you crushed, your bonuses, parts and drops.

SYNDICATE BOUNTY

• Every week the syndicate posts a WANTED rig model.
• Those wrecks pay x1.5 and always turn up a Supply Drop, as long as you have drops left this week.

SALVAGED PARTS + WORKBENCH

• Wrecks worth 100 Shards or more give 1 Salvaged Part per 100 Shards, up to 10 per wreck.
• 10 parts build a Military Heatsink at the Workbench. You can build 1 per week, on top of the 2 you can buy on the market. The workbench shows how much a heatsink is worth on your most expensive rig.
• Parts also cut repair bills: -10% each, up to 3 per repair. Together with the Mechanic the discount stops at 55%.

SYNDICATE CRATE

• A sealed Encrypted Supply Drop you can buy with Shards at the bottom of Services & Gear.
• 15 per week for the whole forum, 2 per agent, restocked every Monday.
• The price follows the Exchange rate. The drop lands in your Coin Miner like any other.

GOOD TO KNOW

• Rigs bought as a Salvaged Hardware deal only pay Shards when scrapped: no parts, no drop, no bounty.
• Scrapping is still permanent. If you want to keep running a rig, repair it.
