M96 Building Cost Cuts

Concept · Releases

In short: M96 made levels 71–79 cheaper on 37 buildings: the base currencies and 7★ Common refined by 80% at level 71, down to 10% at level 79. Build times, special materials and level 80 stayed the same.

M96 (S1E1 Outbreak Battlelines) cut the resource costs of levels 71–79 on 37 of the 66 buildings that go past level 70. No build time changed, on any building or level, and neither did the special materials: Data Cores, Replicator Rations, Outpost Control Cores, Consulate Cores, Class Honors, schematics. Level 80 costs what it did. Each building’s own page shows its costs today.

Σ-Parsteel, Σ-Tritanium, Σ-Dilithium and 7★ Common refined ore, gas and crystal drop by the same share on a level: 80% at level 71, 75% at 72, 70% at 73, then 10 points less on each level, down to 10% at 79. 7★ Uncommon refined is cut on levels 71–75 only (70% down to 10%), and 7★ Rare refined on levels 74–78 only (70% down to 20%).

Compared from the game’s building data (spocks.club /v2/buildings) before the release (M95.5) and after it (fetched Nov 12, 2026). A few costs moved off the step; they are listed under Off the step.
