Agents are asking about the "Powercube" here's a small hint.

Oliver Lynton-Wolfe: In a different century, I would be shouting Eureka. 
I have successfully stabilized the formula for XM containment
and see no reason why I could not build a prototype 'powercube' within days.
Sent at 10:08 PM on Friday
This chat is off the record
Zeke: v. good news. 
any deployment risks I need to be aware of?
Oliver Lynton-Wolfe: Only that intelligence will be heightened exponentially. 
I suspect that others will have epiphanies at the same rates that I have..
Zeke: ok.
that worries me. 
While you seem to have no neg. side effects, others might react differently.
Oliver Lynton-Wolfe: Do you want me to hold off the deployment?
hello?
Zeke: no.
Keep working.
keep me apprised of your progress.
Oliver Lynton-Wolfe: Will do.

    XM Containment....  So a container to store xm?

    XM Battery? Portal mod to improve XM cloud output?

    Hopefully it goes over 9000. Or at least to 11.

    Probably store extra xm. Useful if you're attacking a high-level portal cluster, or trying to defend a portal remotely through recharging. Right now there's little point in defending remotely if the attacker is above level 3 or so.

    edited for clarity.

    Jan Moren how so? plenty of ap to be had while defending 125 ap per res deployment compared to 75 ap per destroyed res that takes 3-4 bursters to take down depending on the attackers level.

  8. Jan MorenMarch 25, 2013 at 5:57 PM

    Arron Soiland I meant remote recharging, not on-site defence. If you can deploy it changes completely of course; the defender has the advantage.

    I imagine Power Cubes are like eating dehydrated space food: add a hint of water, and voila! More delicious XM served.

    Someone said they found one laying near a portal, and said this about them, "its exhausted. Basically, it sits next to the portal and super charges it, reminded me of the old multihack days. I now have 100+ more  lv 8 xmp as a result of a little bit of hacking!"

    I realized it was an XM container right when I saw the title, and the chatlog only cemented my belief. Considering that it has a separate inventory category, it's not a mod - I think that much is obvious.

  29. Brian DuncanMarch 25, 2013 at 7:39 PM

    Portable XM should justify more remote portals with less readily available XM concentration. Assuming XM concentration is really a criteria for portal approval in the first place.

    Why do we really need to store xm unless it becomes scarce soon? That would b sweet. Right now the only way to really lose it is to recharge. Attacking enemy portals doesn't do much damage anymore

    Wolf " see no reason why I could not build a prototype "power cube"in a few days" sent 10:08pm on Friday.... leads me to believe we may be seeing these in a few days, if not, sooner. Additionally, it's either going to be additional xm stored for the agent, a vessel to put xm into to give to another agent, or a vessel to charge xm with too add to the portal as a mod.

    Zeke Cao copy, but to satisfy my own curiosity, where was this posted or what media was it a part of? I searched it, but couldn't find anything. And since Joe just posted this 5 hours ago, without any reference to a previous post or time frame,I assumed it was current.

    Never mind, after a little more digging I found it. Never came across the media referring to it and the aforementioned communique was before my time. Thanks for the correction.

    It is an XM draining device that players can drop as "mines". When enemy players go near it, it explodes/whatever and reduces the XM of the person who walked over it/near it.

    Eric Archambault - the defender has great advantage. Tested in the field... And even level doesn't matter. Only important thing is to gave enough resonators...
    If your internet is good deployment is almost instantenious. And if internet is bad - then firing is also slowed down - sometimes even freezes...

    I got 4 power cubes, I saw it can storage xm, the lv1 powercubes only can get 1000xm, the powercubes lv4 4000xm maybe there are many types of powercubes the common only can storage xm. It looks like a 3d cube just like used in the comics tranformers.
