Let's just take a second and remember DE is looking to make money.

For each new frame, at least 1 piece is a sub-1% chance to drop. They're chucking out those plat-discount vouchers and hoping to hell people are using those to buy items.

Since the market is already hyper-inflated, and platinum is everywhere (DE giveaways have been happening a lot more recently... i'd say check MMOSite for the actual figure, but they had to take down the article; before it was taken down, 64k platinum was given away by devs since they were bought), things aren't goign to get cheaper, so hello buyers.

Related: people have been claiming that the dev stream plat is not tradeable, but I do know from a reliable source that they spent the 1k they received to buy an ember prime set. I can only imagine that others have been able to trade their giveaway plat.

This chassis farming "issue" is nothing new. It's as intended, because people still need to make money. Just wait for actual devs to start leaving when their contractual obligations end with the new owners.

Keep farming in this free-to-play game. It is known to cost time (lots of waiting) and if you feel like your time is worth something more, then buy stuff from other players.
