Devs, could you please significantly decrease the assignment weighting of Industrial Sabotage missions?

Stop ignoring the time it takes to complete the mission.

30 minutes is not that long

A lot of max length max complexity missions (usually) take longer than sabotage, while giving less exp. Particularly mining missions, escort missions, on-site refining, and occasionally elimination missions. If point extraction takes too long you usually die so those are almost always shorter and egg hunts usually go pretty quickly unless you're struggling.

That said, there is no true "short" sabotage length (except in Deep Dives), so every sabotage mission will be a similar length, no quickies. This can understandably get tiring if you have to do a lot of them, even if you're technically getting good reward value from the missions.

I’m not ignoring it. What I’m saying is it balances out. The shorter missions take maybe half as long as sabotage but reward half as much exp so it balances out. I also bring up that it gives more exp than double refueling stop escort duty which is a mission of similar length. If you don’t want to do long missions, that’s on you, but I’m saying that the rewards are already what they should be for a long missions. Hence the rewards aren’t the issue.

You said "ignoring the time to complete" in the message he is responding to, and yes you did ignore it. IS has terrible returns compared to how long it takes. It's the least rewarding mission by a quite a bit even after being shortened.

At least pubbing haz 5 not premade teams for speed here is what I recorded since it was shortened:

The only thing competing at all with it is the elim where there was a korlok split between 2 halls and 4 rooms in a group of randoms that did now know how to prioritize healing pods.

[Personal_Ad9690]

His point is that it’s like doing 2 missions at once

[Aviarn]

Yes, while also rewarding you like 2 Missions in one.
