Today's been a dull at work, so I've been looking at the boards now and again to see what's new. I was reading up on the Empowerment Stations and was disappointed to learn, they are about as ridiculous as everything else related to SG base building.
Empowerment stations (available in tech and arcane) enable people to cash in combined salvage to get buffs. There are 3 tiers of stations. Buffs last for 15 minutes. And while this might help you take care of that AV a little easier, look, for example, at some of the recipe requirements.
Confuse Resistance:
Mystic Element: 5
Mystic Foci: 7
Tech Material: 5
Tech Power: 7
Fear Resistance:
Mystic Element: 5
Mystic Foci: 4
Tech Material: 5
Tech Power: 4
Fire Resistance:
Mystic Element: 5
Mystic Foci: 7
Tech Material: 5
Tech Power: 7
Grant Invisibility:
Mystic Foci: 31
Arcane Essence: 2
Arcane Glyph: 6
Tech Power: 31
Tech Hardware: 2
Tech Prototype: 6
Having collected salvage since bases came to exist, I doubt I could even make one of these. And the worst part is you can't make and then use it like an inspiration when you want to. As soon as you make it, the countdown begins. Bleck. 31 Focis or Powers? Sheesh!
Here is a post with most of the first tier recipes

The costs on the empowerments is absolutely ridiculus. The fact that you can't hold on to them like inspirs make it all that much worse. Hopefully the devs will tweak this before going live.
No kidding, what's the point??
well a 15 minute buff is better than a kick in the ass I suppose =/....so far I haven't been much impressed with the whole Base thing in general, so this is nothing new.
Whats the Point?? POINT??? what was the point of the i6 nerfs? there was no point! its just another tactic to get you to continue your subscription to their game! the Devs don't give a damn if it maks any sense to logical minds....
sorry...rant over
