HOW TO GET BLUEPRINTS FASTER/MORE EFFECTIVE STRATEGY: REAL

NOTE: There is NO actual padderns to getting blueprints but there is a couple things to keep in mind!

One way of getting blueprints quicker is hit the highest level you can in each tier of sets. I have concluded my own consistent data mainly for tier 2) and have found out that hitting level 27's in the tier 2 category will get you a blueprint in a chance of about 1 out of 10-15. While hitting level 30's will get you a one in 6 chance of getting a blueprint and 33's is higher. FOR EACH TIER hit the upper ends of it. So far, i have had received multiple blueprints from tier 2 because it tends to have an easy difficulty and high payout for your troubles so i work on it most. I have entered the file for the talons i use to take down level 30 vegas in about 3 minutes with level 25 tech, and i take about 1% dmg each time i hit so repair is VERY fast and no coins are needed. as for tier 3 and 4, you need hawks to be more effective, and i cannot currently provide screenshots for them.Yesterday, i hit a total of 70 cargos, 30 of which were level 30 vegas and the rest were level 27 in planet res vegas, and i got 6 blueprints. 4 of the 6 actually came from the level 30 vegas so had hit less, and higher, i still got more blueprints. please keep in mind its a good idea to record how many salvs you destroy, because i thought i went on a streak of 20 with no blueprints, but since the process is slow and somewhat anticlimactic, the number of which you hit seems to be way higher. again, the stupid tea padderns arnt real. dont advertise them the inventor is obviously ignorant. Another thing to keep in mind is before complaining about the blueprint drop being low, you have to realize that your only having to open cargos not smash 100 bases. happy hunting and good luck to you all.

By the way kixeye, no matter how many people complain, i like the bp drop rate and i dont expect it to be 100% so keep it the same. thanks.

LMAO the Tea runs have worked about 87% of the time :P

Did you know that 94% of stats are made up on the spot...and I thought your tea runs were more like 70something... BTW SAS thanks for the info.

ok this is moronic. 87% seriosuly? an ACTUAL paddern would be 100%. please, grow a brain and understand simple logic. its like me saying theres a paddern on how to get 50 vega bps it goes like this, 50,50,50,50,50,50,50,50.....

Actually I have to agree. I get 1 BP every 12-16 27s. So we have the same drop rate there. I am not sure about the 33s. I auto 4 27s at the same time with rancs, so I need 4 sorties with all of them to get 1 BP so it does not bother me at all. However, it is piss boring and routine job to do and has killed a lot of gameplay but that is another story.

Did you only do 27s for the first part of your test then gather your data, & only 30s for the second part? If you were doing a mix, it would throw the numbers off.

I would also like to point out that it is much quicker to hit in planet due to travel times, almost instantaneous. You also are likely to take less damage against smaller fleets, almost guaranteeing an auto repair.

to answer you yes i did only do 27 for first part then 30 for second part and i got lett repair doing 30's about 1% dmg so that equals about 20 seconds repair

its still a % to drop and not a pattern, your just lucky. and if they where in patterns it would work 100% of the time for everyone

-As long as he records exactly what kill makes what drop it does not matter if you mix them up or not.

The simple truth of the matter is that if you want the tech offered through blue prints you have to spend some time farming. I was very disappointed after two days of farming and only 5 or 6 blue prints to show for it. then a spree of 9 blue prints in less than two hours including two in a row. then yesterday I got 3 blue prints in 15minutes while on a lunch break at work. last night I went out with two auto fleets of venoms and a fleet of MD NHs and spent an hour farming without repairing or returning to base and ended up with 6 blue prints when I finally did return. that was fun seeing all the bps popping up at once!...To me this is a huge waste of time but hey thats what VC is all about I guess. I'd prefer hitting bases and fighting an actual opponent though,,
