New Central Station, Bunny Borg Armor, Enhancements, and More!
Revamped Central Station!



It's time for spring cleaning on Delta V, and that means a major overhaul of a major zone: Central Station. The decor has changed and the ambigious train platforms have been replaced with the more efficient teleporter pads. Expect to see more pads scattered across Delta V for easy travel. Caution: We are not responsible for accidental disintegrations!

Meet Naomi!

A new visitor to Central Station is Naomi page. Like most Delta V civilians, she longs for a day that the conflict on Delta V will end. However, she also realizes that in the planet's current state of affairs, dueling is survival!



For this reason, she's brough some unique, limited-quantity armors for sale: The Bunny Borg!



This fearsome armor is sure to intimidate opponents, while looking pretty snazzy with the other Bunny-esque gear!

We have also expanded on the concept of Encumberance to include armors. What does this mean? It means you will now be able to equip armors with level requirements up to 4 levels greater than your current level. For example, as a level 21, you can equip the level 25 armors. However you will take a penalty of -1 damage per level different (25-21=4). Recogning that some armors give small bonuses, an armor's defense or resistance can never drop below 1!

More Enhancements! More Power!

Got some dusty old bazookas and guns you've been keeping for a special occasion? Want to take the latest and greatest weapons to the next level? Power them up with sidearm and bazooka enhancements! Plus, to be fair to our non-varium players, credit enhancement prices have been slashed 30-40%!

NPC Item Drops!

To test NPC drops before we go all out and build missions that hinge on them, we have introduced drops on some popular NPCs. The following NPCs have the chance to drop a free health or energy booster/pack!

• Gamma Guard
  
• Valery
  
• Oz
  
• Selina
  

Skill Diminishing Returns

The diminishing returns we applied to stats over the last few releases will now be applied to skills. This means that the rate at which skills with improve with a given stat has been reduced, so as more points are point into a stat, the associate skills will improve more slowly.
