    I just started a build less than 12 hours ago! Now I'm considering canceling a 10 day build, but I used reusable credits in the build. Anyone know if I still get those credits back if the ship doesn't finish the initial build?!

    Kixeye Logic: Players want 24 hour refit discount, then here have a 3 hour ship build reduction. That'll teach them to want us to do stuff...

    Lol

    Oh thanks lol, I wasn't playing when I asked it, I thought it would have been over even before I could see it. Well lucky me, my punisher build finishing just before discount...

    i have a 24 day build I started the day before this was posted , kixeye must be crazy thinking 3 hr ship construction discount even helps  LOL

    now if they changed it to  50% off any build started or in progress if you coin discount  ..  

    as it looks right now it may be directed at new players with little ships to build..

    That must be why they mention building Decimators for the April event.

    The benefit of the repair reduction is not worth as much as the coins it would take to finish my current build in order to start a new build in the three second window where the repair reduction applies, so thanks, but no thanks.

    Why are they giving us this now? People are most likely building their decimators and cannot benefit from this

    Players should be sent a 20% reduction token to use when there builds are finished. This would be more fair. When is anything ever fair though? :neutral:

    It is stupid they are running the build discount before they release the dim cutter crafting deal (stupid to me but a baller move for kixeye)

    Build blank hulls, then fit them. I use this strategy and I've only ever missed one build/refit reduction.

    Blank punisher = 5day
    Blank t6 cutter = 5day 21hr (in won't learn it's name until I see it useful)
    Blank dom = 14 days 21hrs

    You're just lucky that you haven't missed more than one. I build blank hulls and have only used 2 or 3 of these refit/build discounts because I'm mid build/refit usually.

    They give us < 24hr notice on a game to where blank hulls are now taking 5+ days, it really is just a slap in the face. Even new tokens for swarms are 2 or 3 day per token. Fusion disintegrator is 1 day each. Doing builds and refits separately still doesn't ensure you won't miss an event.

    Overall, making it 3 hours is just a crappy move.

    I have the same question as I have a Punisher near the end of its build.  It is just long enough to not be able to take advantage of this build time reduction if it does not reduce currently building ships.

    I didn't figure it would.  I have just under 2 days left for my Punisher and was hoping just to finish it earlier and start a refit of my carrier to better squads or start a blank Decimator.  Heck if it did, i would even consider coining the rest of the time away.

    Kix, if you read this... maybe a token for a certain amount of time off would be better than springing this on a majority of people that already have ship builds going and therefore cannot take advantage of it.   .. yay a constructive thought.
