Where does the x platinum per 8 minutes figure come from?
I see forum feedback on Plague Star saying that it needs to be more efficient than 4? 12? plat (I forget if it is 4 or 12) per 8 minutes. Where does that figure come from?
That should just be the forma earn rate/bounty time vs the cost of buying forma directly from the market for platinum.
I think most of the people complaining were the ones abort farming the bounties to skip the defense portion and that yielded more standing/min (pre-nerf) compared to completing the full bounty.
8 min probably just comes from the amount of time it takes to speed run a full bounty. (or 3k standing works out to ~8min mission time)
