    What's the point of money if we can't buy component parts

    You mean to tell me there's no one willing to sell me some electronics anywhere in DC?

    Exactly. I started the game thinking I need to be smart about spending credits so that once I reach endgame I can use them on what matters but lol nothing matters about credits.

    Also, it takes 20 or 30 electronics if I want to craft a skill mod, but if I break down a skill mod I can't salvage ANY of those electronics? So I can't buy them and breaking down things that would clearly provide me with some electronics doesn't because grind.

    The vendors take credits if your buying. I think the recalibration station also takes credits.

    The safe houses and control points have boxes near by that you can collect electronics from.

    I seem to always run out of electronics when using the recalibration station, I just fast travel to the different safe houses and any green control points and run down some alleys and have enough electronics to do more recals.

    Go to solar farm if you need eletronics, or do some hyena/black tusk missions

    Yeah, I was thinking about that control point but wasn't sure of the name. That place is full of boxes and bags. Just go to the resource officer and give some resources, then all the loot boxes and bags are easy to see when your close to them.

    esp helps is it's at night when you donate resources to the CP officer. I did that during the day (in game time) last night and just bounced from CP to CP to find electronics for recal. The i realized i had more gear that needed recal than i had resources lol . resources that i just acquired at that.

    I know that I can run around the control points and get some materials, but that's not really what I'm trying to express here--why is there not someone selling materials? I mean, we're giving these vendors materials for certain things so they have economic value, but no one in this marketplace is selling electronics for credits? That makes no sense. I have 1.2MM credits that is just going to be a slow build to max amount since credits serve no purpose.

    Why isn't someone going out and collecting electronics/polycarbonate/etc. and then coming to the BoO and selling them for credits? They could make an absolute killing.

    With the recalibration changes buying stuff off vendors somewhat has a point now, if you see stuff with stats you like.

    There really should be a money sink in this game. I've found credits pretty much useless since hitting lvl 30.
