Igneel PrimeDon't think so. A friend of mine who recently started playing still has only 100 on all G5 raws at least. found that out when I took him to the shards




Check at a material trader.

There are no grade 5 raw materials.

All grade 4 should have 150 cap.


This. There are certain raw materials that are mislabelled as grade 5 (polonium and tech two cases in question). They are grade 4 like all rarest raw materials and should stack 150.

Makes you wonder what for exactly? Are they going to take the delegates on a cruise through the 3 superpowers? Does he want to abduct them to the Coalsack? The possibilities!


Perhaps, it is something more trivial.
Protect delegates - BH CG
Or
(if the megaship is near station) rescue missions after terrorist atracks or Thargoids will be party poopers for the summit.

... So many Lavian brandy will go in vain

Zeus turned Laelaps into the constellation Canis Major. Sirius A,B are 2 of the stars in it.

No foxes though... Does that mean gingers will be safe?

*wonders if Aisling will dye her hair red for this occasion just to be on the safe side*

I beg to differ. Antimony and Polonium are Grade 5.

Odds on. We're pretty convinced the summit will be attacked. There is still a bit of intrigue surrounding who is funding the terrorists and what their motive might be. It's grown bigger than a bunch of marlinists wanting independence. The NMLA now have superpower help.

Plus, there's some really good Imp targets there to kill off including Aisling Duval and Denton Patreus.

If you think 'the fox' to catch may be a silver fox? - Zimina will be in charge of the imps in their absence, but is plummeting in CCs. If Patreus and the Princess were wiped out, it would really open up the dominion battle with the Fed.

Just a thought.

Nope, both grade 4. They are listed as grade 5 in error.

A bunch of big wigs on one single ship that floats in the void... They surely aren't learning from the history.

I have noticed some weird things with materials - e.g. the game is currently telling my that my Zirconium (100 of a max 250) is grade 4...

It's a bug, probably in that localization. Raw mats cap out at grade 4 and so the maximum you can have is 150, not the 100 if it was actually grade 5. It should be reported as such to FDev so they can fix it in 7 years.
