Update the other generated combat missions kill pay from 1500 to 5000

Apr 06, 2023 CrazySpence link
Deneb a long time ago after some campaigning by me and others got a pay bump to the 5k per kill it is now, I feel the Hive missions should get a boost as well to the per enemy killed value

Escort missions as well, kills are rare but with unrats and ion storm hives they do happen

Hive and escort currently pay 1500 per kill, so my suggestion is 5k per kill same as Deneb

I don't think you should necessarily get rich doing combat but you should be able to make a living without having to resort to pesky 'trading'

Idk in hive skirms you can already earn more cmb/weapon XP/ better drops/ and more money for your time. That's not even considering the boosted ion storm missions.

Agreed with Inevitable. I think escort missions could definitely use the boost because the kills are rarer (and you're saving lives in-lore by scoring those kills), but hive skirmishes are fine as is.

No they're not, you're assuming I'm gonna go float around in my cap for 30 min collecting all the junk to sell, trading, hoarding, mining, all terrible things to combat players

I should be paid for combat not by being a garbage man after the fact

Okay you can just say "no they're not" but that doesn't make it true. I'm not talking about any of the additional gear either. You're going to kill bots much faster than Deneb NPCs, and in storms you make even more (6000 per kill). So it's really better all around

Excluding the uncommon storm factor , which is the only one that pays decent,

i make 300k to half a mil in fighter/small skirms in deneb vs 50k -100k max in a small/common/large

if i just fart around for twice as long in a crit and dont kill the queen i can make maybe 150-200k including the mission payout

it is less, every time.

the drops and combat xp are the real reward. 200k is a low estimate considering we farm nodules there, ive paid out the better part of 50 million to people doing skirms just last week.

..in a skirm mission you can simply infiturbo.. skirting the assaults while killing the completely stationary miners.. it really couldnt be easier to achieve victory. lets be realistic.

+1 5k per kill seems fair. The mission rewards should be separate from any player market stuff.

The small hive missions are too easy to pay out that much.

+1 definitely would think that hive skirmishes should get a pay raise. At least to 5k it's not much but it's honest work.
