Yeah I have been playing. Since Nov 2015. If you care to read my post it is about the joke of an item that is the mk6 stun gun. Also how it's already very difficult to farm the required carbanti and mk5 stun guns as it is without them needing to add a need for even more.
I suggested the change to the gear in the shops. While it is a very useful and welcome addition it doesn't fix the whole issue. The issue is the amount of the same gear that characters need at nearly every gear level from g7 onwards, and the chance of actually getting the gear.
I'm not asking for there to be an abundance of it. the carbanti/stun gun problem can be fixed using challenges. add an extra tier on each day sdding mk5 stun guns and increasing the amount of carbanti.
The mk6 stun gun still needs a mk8 biotech implant and mk4 zaltin bacta gel. Which i have a need for loads of them too. It's just never ending. Now they want us to complete LS and DS TB. Modless and gearless. Some people have left already because of the requirements.
