Minor Announcement - Junkers + PScrap - Arioch - 03-17-2016
Oh hai -
So due to the kindness of Impy and the Junker Marauders and their Official Faction Request, all Junkers hereby have a +1 mining bonus to Premium Scrap.
Now go mine, salvage stuff, ya know... do Junker things.
That is all.

I've heard Omicron Rho is the best buypoint for Premium Scrap. But remember to sign up for a visa (:

That's nice, but what about other faction perk(s) that are not yet implemented?
Ageira/RFP rephack approved but not implemented
RE: Minor Announcement - Junkers + PScrap - Arioch - 03-17-2016
I thought someone took care of that - Let me look into it. Apologies that wasn't taken care of sooner.
EDIT: Should be fixed now. PM me if not.

why is premium scrap drop so low? i get from 2 to 6 per shot,sometimes 10
are the fields depleted?(though the function was disabled..) or someone didnt added the bonus to JM ID?
RE: Minor Announcement - Junkers + PScrap - Arioch - 03-18-2016
Not sure, but it's correct server-side. JM| have a +1 bonus to PScrap, along with all Junkers.

I think it might have been better to give the official faction perk to the official faction only, at least from the start. The purpose behind the program was mainly to induce indies to give official factions a try. Now, whatever the inducement would have been, is lost.
RE: Minor Announcement - Junkers + PScrap - Lythrilux - 03-18-2016
I don't know myself since I rarely Junker these days but from what Impy has told me Pscrap was kind of bad before this perk, even with the recent changes (RIP original BALANCED Valetta 14k sell point >.>).
Personally, even though the point of a perk is to give benefits to an official faction, I think it's a good thing that Impy is using his perk to benefit his indies as well as the official faction. Imo faction leaders should be looking out for their indies and trying to help them whenever/wherever possible. I feel some official factions not only don't do this, but they refrain and almost distance themselves from their indiebase entirely.
Besides, JM still has a bunch of other perks that give inscentives to join. Even without, the faction itself offers fun group piracy oppertunities that an indie Junker may struggle to find on their own.
RE: Minor Announcement - Junkers + PScrap - Garrett Jax - 03-18-2016
Then it shouldn't be an official faction perk, but a simple faction request to whomever is handling the mining part of the mod now. Shouldn't have to waste a perk for something that might be approved outside the Official Faction Perk program.
RE: Minor Announcement - Junkers + PScrap - Arioch - 03-18-2016
JM got another perk that was just for them as well, so an official perk was still given them.
The thought here though is that due to mining changes, as well as PScrap the main commodity that Junkers mine, they should all have that perk. As it is only a slight boost, we felt that all Junkers should have that benefit.
