MK3 Carbanti Sensor Array / MK6 Chiewab Hypo Syringe cost

Why do these pieces cost 1,400 crystals? It seems WAY over priced. When they are simply a piece of the puzzle for things such as a furnace and stun gun.

Raid only gear costs 1,400 crystals and those need not only raid specific gear, but multiple other items as well.

The two items listed above only need 50 salvage pieces of that item and both are farmable. This doesn't make sense to me. Why not drop the crystal price of both of these to about half?
  • 50 salvage prototypes cost 1274 crystals, 50 salvage pieces that are also standalone items cost 1400 crystals
    Those prices are in line with someone using 2 50 crystal refreshes everyday farming the 50 salvage
    So in reality raid gear is underpriced when compared to stun cuffs, syringes, etc.
  • They set the raid gear at 1,400 when they introduced the 2 week rotation. What I thought would have happened is the other items would have had a reworked price tag as well.

    Wishful thinking is what I'd called that. I'm sure CG saw just how many people were buying gear at 1400 crystals a pop, so there's no way they would lower prices.
  • True, but who's spending 1,400 crystals on small farmable pieces when they can just get the full piece for 1,400? I feel like they would actually make more of these farmable pieces were cut in half.
  • I have a furnace in shipments for 1,400. And I have the Carbanti array in shipments for 1,400 right now as well. The full stun gun is really high priced. Over 2k crystals. But the furnace and droid caller are 1,400 like these small farmable pieces are.
  • Umn Fully crafted Raid gear is 2474 crystals anything that is farmable is 1400, I know this cause i had a Mk5 Stun gun in my shipments a bit ago for that price and a MK3 stun cuffs for 1400.

    MK5 Stun Gun is not raid gear

    Ummmm Furnaces aren't farmable and they are 1400.....
  • There was a time when scanners were selling for 2205 crystals until people massively raged and they lowered to the now-standard 1400 for the four raid-only gear. Yeah, the full stun gun, detonator, and mk 4 chedak are well over 2000 and are seriously overpriced by comparison. The furnace seems to be the best value considering how much farming it requires to craft.
