For some reason, I started to like mep less.
But I totally agree with him. Jintsuriki scanner should be buffed.
His version of buff is a good one, 16k range + 4-5k scanning range
I would not mind seeing though something like 17k range + 3-4k scanning range.
Yeah the the Jint scanner has become a bit of a waste. The tiers of scanners has always been strange. All scanners cost almost nothing, or jump to 250 million. There's always been little reason to go beyond the beginner scanners which are all under a million creds. We could use some mid range level scanners with prices. A 50 mil one, a 150 mil one, a 250 mil one. The current Jint scanner value is dead because no one really wants to pay 250 mil for 1k overall range increase, and a loss of cargo scanning range to 2k. 3.5 - 4 k scanning range would be decent.
Make the stock scanners have brutal range of like 10k with 2k cargo scanning range. Then with a few levels of scanners at higher prices it would make extending your range commensurate to how much you are willing to invest credit wise. As it stands, the Adv Deep and Cargo scanners should probably be like 50 mil, and all stock scanners should be the ones below them. The Jint could be lowered to 150 mil, and the Minified left as the 250 mil option.
It seems no one here has really expiramented with scanners. The Jintsuriki's value comes from it's ability to see far furthing in nebulae. Where every other scanner loses range dramatically as soon as you enter a nebula, not so with the Jintsuriki. Is this worth the full 250mil? Maybe not, maybe, it all depends on the aim of entering said nebula. As it is it could be reduced a bit, sure, but that hardening still comes at a price.
i bought lots of jinsuriki scanners when stats were different, more or less like BS scanner(when disco hadn't minified spyglass). So idea for me sounds cool and good. Currently its stats just garbage.
I'm thinking that buffing the cargo scan range up for perhaps 3.5 distance and lowering the item price so it is costing like 115 or 125 millions is doing the trick here.
