Quote:A while ago, I decided to upgrade Yukiyo's SO enhancements. I used up all her inf and did 6 raids of the base's enhancements for selling and I still didn't manage to get all my enhancements up to date.
Assembling whatever IOs you happen to have recepies for when you're passing through the base or wherever seems to me like much less trouble than constantly fretting about the age of enhancement such and such and will I be able to find the cash to replace it.
In other words, I agree with Valles, taking a look to see what IO I can build once in a while and replacing enhancements with them would, at least, reduce the cost of upgrading. I might lose a few percents augmentation, but I lose a lot more than that with the outdated enhancements that I can't afford to replace.
The way I see it, it's a competition of convenience and cost efficiency against maximum efficiency and relative rarity, and people will simply choose whichever they prefer.
-Edit-
However, one huge flaw that I've seen and that I'm hoping is due to incomprehension on my part is that, if I understood the tutorial right, if you exemp under an IO's level, it becomes useless.
I'm really hoping that's not true because that's a flaw large enough to make me forget about IO's forever.
