MK2 upgrades are 25% off.
I was checking to see what I was going to upgrade next when I noticed the silver upgrade was cheaper. So I thought...another random upgrade overdrive?? I checked the MK2 gold cost and its 375, so it must be, I thought. Then I checked my Au Jun that’s still MK1 and it’s at normal price. I checked another. Same.
So it looks like MK2 upgrades are 25% off at the moment. Could this be permanent? I hope so.
[update]
It turns out OE bots and weapons have the discount, not MK2 specifically. I thought it was MK2 that did since my OE are MK2 when I made the discovery and the MK1 that I checked were all NE.
I don’t understand the logic of this discount ? Nerf OE coming?

Silver cost down 25% too, or just the gold? 500 gold isn't the problem with MK2, the silver cost is.

The MK2 that I checked earlier were OE so I assumed it was that. Alright, this has to be a mistake. Or maybe it’s just a display glitch? I don’t have op pass, but I have VIP though ?

Looks like OE bots are 25% off. Same for mk2ing. Not advertised on the upgrade button though. Maybe Natty might get some upgrade lovin' this weekend.

I would've leveled my Spec, but I still need to get it to lvl 12 1st. 70mil is a little steep. Still waiting for a discount.

Why give discount only to OE weapons or OR version of the same weapon? Iâm a relatively new player who started playing a year ago. Everything Iâve got are NE. Iâm thinking of mk2ing some old school weapons such as Taran, Trident and Scourge. But since they are all NE I guess I wonât get the 25% discount... thx for the unfair treatment Pix. Guess Avenger might be the only exception since the NE version is cheaper to upgrade (not sure by how much or if it beats the 25% discount on OE version).

This is so good...my vortexes can maybe OE gusts can be upgraded? Possible tarans.
Oh wait a 「fluffernutter」ing minute they've all been nerfed.
That's probably why they discounted...mother f'ers.

I think the logic is, why buy expensive new weapons / bots when you have oe gear that isn't maxed out? Once your oe gear is maxed then you get the itch to buy something shiny. Also power creep seeding more Mk2 pushes people up in ranks. I'll likely Mk2 my scourges, maybe Inquisitor.

this could just be an error on their part. they probably ran the discount, and since those weapon types have different ids in the database, they missed the update statement

I cant see why they would discount old economy , so ...

Old economy gear holders who are still active and not yet maxed out are such a small segment.
Think about who this really affects..
Like specifically old economy, but new economy weapons.
As in old economy redeemers or dragoons etc.
Some people might choose to max a few spectres or orkans wtc.
But Ifs not actually cheaper to max lots of old economy gear:
Punishers, thunders, tridents etc are all pricier in the old economy.
It’s a very specific slice of gear.

. Okay, so I see the discount available. Has anybody actually started down the Mk 2 upgrade path yet ?

I just enhanced my oe redeemer but it will sit now on mk2 lvl 1 for 2 more days because I have a upgrade running currently. Can confirm the gold and silver is 25% off.

If tbis discoint exists after upgrading my last 200m in modules, I’ll be abusing it to death. FYI. It seems to be working on silver modules too. Weren’t they 4m before?
