Okay, I think most people will agree that the variant prices are too high for 2-3 star weapons/armour, am I right? (of course some will say that this will make the game too easy, but I think otherwise).

So, 5 star weapons cost 20kcr, which is currently the same as a lower rate weapon. But that should be changed, but also not too drastically. Here are the prices I think they should be changed to; 5 star 20kcr, 4 star 17.5kcr, 3 star 15kcr, 2 star 7kcr. Yeah, I guess 2 star is cheap, but the variant buyer still has to make the recipes for ALL the rest of the weapon/armour line, so that would be fair, in my mind anyway.

Well, that's my idea of a good update!
Hope this is considered at least... or prices change a little.

People can already craft 2* and 3* far cheaper than 4* and 5* to get UVs without Punch.

2 star weapons become 5 star in the end anyway, so this isn't that great of an idea... This would kinda ridiculously make UVs so much more obtainable. Not good. Not good.

No because then you can just buy a lower tier weapon, varient the hell out of it and get nicer UV's cheaper than you would before. I view this as nothing more than a complaint that you have unlucky rolls and dont waste your money.

Ive spent almost 1 million Cr already on my triglav alone and have ASI : Low - Slime : Med.

This idea is bad and makes varianting at anything other than the lowest tier the only option.

Far in your mind, not fair to the people whove already invested millions if not billions of crowns into their weapons.

Not to mention that Punch is one of the reasons why CE prices aren't skyrocketing.

I see your point behind making Punch cheaper, but as others have pointed out, it makes Punch redundant for higher star level gear.

Want a Blitz with CTR: VH? No need to craft an autogun a million times! Make one, then pump cash into Punch like there's no tomorrow!

Admittedly, crafting multiple times would probably prove cheaper, but more time consuming, way to get a good UV; but crowns are easier to come by than energy and materials.

2* weapon in the beginning and rage craft for max UV's, craft into 5* and boom. The game becomes boring because you have good UV's
