Question about Borderworld shipline technerf - AceofSpades - 03-07-2015

Was flying a Freelancer ID'ed Broadsword for awhile and enjoyed it alot.
I changed it over to a Junker ID so I could do some... nefarious activities, and was surprised to see it gets a 90% technerf.

I dont believe the Pirate ID carries any sort of powercore downgrade either for Borderworlds ships.. and considering the quasi-legal standing of Junkers, I was surprised to see it reduced.
It seems more like the Civilian/House-Civy shiplines would be nerfed to Junkers before the borderworlds ships they'd be operating around..

Anyways, I was wondering if this is something that has been discussed previously, or what the established reasoning might be for said techchart?
Not that 10% is a massive drag, and there's always SRP opportunities, but it just seemed a bit outta place

No mainstream faction has 100% on both Borderworlds and Civilian cells for balance reasons. Hence why JM has 100% on BWs and 90% on civ, though we're looking to change that.

Ohhh makes sense, that would be a lot of ships for any faction to have available.

Gahh I dig that JM reputation then it seems to make a lot more sense for the Junker ID's shipline.
Best o' luck on getting that freed up though the Faction IDs sure are useful in that regard

I believe this is to avoid situations like these in the past, at which the best ship was Sabre with Nomad weaponry.

CSV must be the most expensive thing that any scrap-addicted bum could afford.
