Wholesale (4x) Skill - Buff Idea

Wholesale (4x) skill as it currently is ::: Increases the amount of market orders by 16 per level = 80 at level 5.

I feel that this is very limiting to all players and to the "sandbox" that is Eve Online.
If you increase the amount of market orders, you will increase the fun for all players.
More market orders = more gameplay / fun / market competitiveness / list goes on...

So, The problem - The amount of market orders per level is too low.

Solution possibility - Increase the amount of market orders up to 20 per level = 100 at level 5(or whatever is preferred), up from 16 per level = 80 at level 5.


Please be constructive everyone. No trolling or extreme negativity. I care a lot about the subject, and am doing my best to better the gameplay of this great game.

If you're gonna post here thinking your idea is the greatest thing since bacon and that it will save EVE and possibly all humankind with it, you're gonna have a bad time.

I apologize for any inconvenience. I am trying to keep it organized and focus on each single topic at hand, instead of some big overwhelming wish list in a single thread. I am not consciously trying to spam the forum or make anyone agitated.

Thank you for your feedback so far!

These are all the same idea though...

You want to increase the number of market orders available to a character...
You wish to double the base number of orders from 5 to 10...
To increase the number of orders gained by the trade skill from X to Y...
and to increase the number of orders gained by Wholesale from L to M....

This is all the same idea... which really doesn't need extra threads...

Now, as to your idea... My market alt has about 270 orders available (missing tycoon V), and I try to stock 3 markets... I personally wouldn't mind an additional 10% in my max order number...

I don't know if it's terribly necessary though...

I don't really see much of an issue with giving more market orders to people. It might not be necessary, but It sure wouldn't hurt as far as I'm concerned. If someone could utilize all those slots, then more power to them.

Thank you my friend! I am literally just asking for a TINY increase to market orders. Its not some huge tidal wave of change. I am simply increasing the *sandbox* of the game, by increasing the power of all the players. The gameplay will surely be more fun.

I have 29 orders available and I already feel like it's a lot.

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

A bad idea, it helps a few people (or bots) dominate a market, restricting the opportunities for new characters to get into trading.

So you mean to increase the overall amount of market orders from 305 at max to 345 at max. Alright.

I know it's been said a few times already, but this really could have been put in one thread to consolidate things.

Also it really bothered me that there was literally everything except Tycoon. I looked for that thread for a surprising amount of time before I realized it wasn't there.

To the OP

Is the reason you are putting this idea forward because you are an alt on the same account as another character and you wish to spend less time training on your trading toon so you can refocus on the other character's training?
