Last night, I was chatting with a few long standing has players on the subject of how easy it is currently to fund resources. The general view was that it was probably too easy.

When we started the current season, Erestrum and mag were in short supply, then If I remember correctly after community feedback the availability of resources increased, but on reflection perhaps this availability was a little too generous?

In particular, I heard several conversations at the beginning of the season specifically about homeworld planet, along the lines of “you have got to get here quick, as thus is bound to be nerfed!”

Do others feel that resources are too easy, scarce or just right, to maintain going into 8.0?

I am keenly aware that like most players with multiple seasons behind them I have a healthy stock pile in my OCD, so may have a very different viewpoint to new players.

On a related note, when Rexus raided our OCD of certain materials to create a shortage for all players, I think this had a positive result, which I would like to see repeated.
