mind the language, but witch numpety decided to make the UGTO battle dred require gold engy. its not a engineering related ship for heaven's sake! i can understand the command dred, but why the battle dred?
i mean, think realisticaly. its like having to have a boat license to fly a airliner(and for all the smartypants, NOT a floatplane)

I, too, feel that one of the most powerful ships in the game should also be incredibly easy to attain because gosh darnit this is a game and I pay so I should get whatever I want even if I am a terrible team player.

Wasn't it that it requires the Defense Medal...
ya ok the Defense Medal is "Silver Combat and Gold Engineering"
but might want to reverse that for the BattleDread
Gold Combat and Silver Engineering?

gold combat and silver engy would be allright, but i would prefer bronze engy.... easier to get. i do not get though why it needs a engy badge. who cares about cross-specialisation, not everyone wants to do that....

Engineering is easy prestige, but the art of proper and effective engineering isn't so easy if you don't do much building. I say start building; I find it addictive and even relaxing sometimes (other times it's hectic and fun like in an active scenario game, vs a deserted game where I engineer just to lay low and relax)

There are dozens of hideous planets in the MV, you can easily get 100-200, even 400+ prestige from rebuilding them.

klorel,
its not so much easier. its making it actualy need the badges that relate to the job it does. its not a engineering ship. its a combat ship.
anyone who is half-serious about flying one would probaly have gold combat anyway.

have you ever considered that you lose more pres scrapping then building?

Actually it's exactly the same amount of pres... Each building is worth an amount of pres that varies by the amount of time it takes to build... If you use any building enhancements to speed it up, you will in-fact lose more pres scrapping something than you gain from building it, a reasonable trade-off for the amount of time saved.

So i better start building with 1 drone.
Or would i gain more pres building with 2 or 3 drones over a period of time, say an hour?

Actually it's the same, each drone calculates your prestige on the amount of time it is on, if a building takes 1 minute to build with 1 drone, and you get 1 prestige* for that minute. You could use two drones and it would take 30 seconds to build, but since both drones were active for 30 seconds you get the same amount of prestige as 1 drone active for a minute see what I'm saying
1 drone active for 1 minute = 1 prestige*
2 drones active for 0.5 minutes = 1 prestige*
3 drones active for 0.3333333~ min = 1 prestige*
Using extra drones will not harm your prestige gain, It will actually help it considering you can build much faster.
If you use enhancements to increase speed you get less prestige since it calculates the same way
lets say you have 2, 5% build computers
1 drone active for 0.9 minutes = 0.9 prestige*
2 drones active for 0.45 minutes = 0.9 prestige*
3 drones active for 0.3 minutes = 0.9 prestige*
*these amounts are not exact prestige gain they are used for examples sake.
