Why is it a decaying code archive gave me like 4 - 5 bars of xp to my level 12. Yet a corrupted code from the level 100 gave me 4 bars of XP?

40 decaying codes vs 340 decaying codes

I think a box of taskmaster heads gives the same XP as a box of 01 solider parts.

So why has that issue not been raised before? Obviously there needs to be some sort of xp adjustment made for the trade. No waste of dev time there as it only needs to be revised to be inline with the lower trade

Yeah, sounds like a good idea. But they'd probably have to spend a "few" hours re-farming both and weigh how long it too to get one set you turn in for XP to balance it with the higher set (Corrupted Code or 01 Taskmaster heads).

I think they should bump the Corrupted Code to give 10 times more XP than the Decaying Code Archive. There is exactly 8.5 times more Decaying Codes in a Corrupted Code than a Archive, but they should always go with that little extra "buy in bulk" option. It also offers both an alternative to missions and is well worth the effort in farming and using the Code on something other than the Dana or Headgear.

Yup sounds okay to me. It could possibly meakes the grind that little less mundane

At the moment its better to trade decaying code arcives as opposed to the corruptor frags. Its never a waste of time to farm the decaying codes tho

The whole thing needs a bit of a rebalance. That much is obvious.

The whole corrupted quests needs looking at 2100 decaying code which is about 20 hours total farming time rfor a hat that doesnt really help many builds when compared against the SSR Glasses that takes 2-3 hours to farm and gives is regen acc buffs for every tree and decent resistance. Either the buffs need to be raised maybe add 500pts health or something to make it worth while with a 50% health regen. considering the time it takes to farm one it should be the best item in the game bar the assassins mask.
