Ok am i the only one who wants the old pres system back, damaging ships used to be worthwhile. Now i got 3 Pres from getting a Battle Cruisers hull from 89 to 0 and only got 3 pres.

AI were never worth a lot of prestige. I gained 300 per fight just fine yesterday. Prestige gain is fine.
It used to be much, much more difficult than this.

There is no way that pres gains should be made any easier , farming ai should give little to no pres imho.

If anything, gaining prestige is absurdly easy now with ships damaged.
Just get a dread, spam spacebar. Or just spam spacebar really with any ship. And don't die.
Good luck.

To put this into perspective, when I started, with moderate-to-heavy playtime, I managed to make it to Admiral in around 4 months.
Over the next 4 years coming up to about halfway through this year I acquired about 10k pres whilst playing sporadically.
In the past few months I've tripled my prestige with relatively little effort.

I'm actually lowering prestige rewarded for damage done to armour and shields again (from 2% of damage done to hull, to 0.5%).

Only thing is, lowering it drives sporadic players to play even less, as you have to be addicted or jobless to progress quickly.
Thats why ive always liked skill based games over experience based.
