9 days ago post? Was that pre-U10 or post it? T3 run gives you ~30k credits. That is hardly enough to transmute 4rares. For people who stocked millions with 70-100k T3 rewards prior to U10, it may be an affordable way to burn credits(and a natural game money sink), but for players who didn't have that luxury(or didn't care) - it's not an option. Transmutation was invented quite some time before U10, so it is indeed based on older economy. But since now credit gain is down about 2.5 times, paying 36k just for one absolutely random transmute(which you may need to do about 30-50 times) is... ludicrous. There are plenty of other natural sinks, like maxing 10rank mods of your sentinel(let alone your own weapons), warframe vitality(let alone redirection). To get all that you need time, and millions of credits. And by all means it's months of gameplay for even ... an interested gamer. After all that(or even halfway), if a person doesn't have pretty much any mod(since there aren't really TIERS of quality, just dumb RNG. You can have 5 multishots of one kind and not a single of another) - he has to be clinically addicted if he decides to keep playing. Transmutation should cost like 5k for normal mods and 15k max for rare with RECENT economy, as a usual gamble of getting something you don't yet have(and by no means do you have a chance to bypass content and get something super-duper, like triple multishot). Otherwise it was pretty damn expensive pre-U10, and now it's simply undoable.
