The new shard shop has prices that are much better per piece - and that's assuming that all currency is equal value

Sorry, but I compare prices above and comparison shows that shard shop is more expensive than Fleet shop

@pargame Your math is flawed. 6 stun cuff salvage in the Shard Shop is now 186 (that's 31 Shard currency per salvage). In fleet, 5 stun cuff salvage was 600 (as per Leef's pic) that's 120 currency per salvage piece. I fail to understand how 120 is a "better deal" than 31. Similar situations exist regarding mk5 stun guns. Those are the two gear pieces that a majority of players are short.

And again, that's operating under the presumption that all currencies are equal. Fleet currency, since it is the ONLY way to buy Zeta, is more valuable in my opinion. I don't care if I have two options if one of them is always bad.

Doesn't matter.
Who are you or anyone else for that matter to tell me what I can buy in fleet arena.
I have a few toons zeta, but an currently sitting on 40+ Zetas because I don't have the character geared enough to zeta.

You are making my point exactly. Now you can gear those toons easier and cheaper through shard shop. And make use of those zetas. And buy more zetas.

For early game players, the change isn't particularly helpful. For anyone who has been playing, it's fantastic.

Today in GW - I dropped 4 shards I don't need. That's 2 pieces of stun cuff or stun gun salvage from the shard shop. That's helping with the gear grind.

And how exactly does removing the gear from fleetshipment helps? In reality its not a help its a shift and thats about it a shift with a price increase...

it's a price increase if you keep buying gear with fleet tokens, that is true. Nobody can deny that.
You do however get alot in return, wich includes the ability to get more gear faster at the cost of shards out of any of the shops ingame.
I don't see how people gladly exchange fleet tokens for gear, but get peeved about getting the option to use every single token in the game + excess shards to buy gear in return.
