Sooooo....

An apotheosis is a small ship. Doesn't refine into much, looks neat, affordable on any budget. Great gift, no problem!

A Genosis is very cool looking. I'm looking forward to it quite a bit...

500,000 accounts X 1 Genosis @ 50 Mil ISK (Conservatively) = 25 Trillion ISK

..just food for thought.

Confirming: There is absolutely zero chance that anyone at CCP has thought this through at all. Zero. Chance.

[insert random rubbish that irritates you personally] is further evidence that Eve is dying/thriving*

... perhaps reprocessing a Gnosis will carry a severe and automatic standings penalty... just to make it painful to "scrap" such a beautiful hull. Twisted

Would these numbers be including those people who get the 5 run Gnosis BPC from the Collectors Edition pre-order? Big smile

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Unless they are getting a base insurance payout of 50 mill, it's ISK trading. No ISK is created.

Just food for thought.

OP is a dumb, and should feel bad, forever.

Again.... what part of "don't screw this Gnosis thing up for me" did you fail to comprehend?

Lol what? It's not generating isk. The amount of minerals generated is a drop in a bucket, and nobody is going to reprocess it anyways. Honestly, as cool of a ship as it is, it's of little consequence really.

You're probably right. Maybe that's why I'm so poor. You should give me some ISK. Big smile

600 Trilllion about the size of EvE economy (from fanfest)

These numbers mean nothing to me. I only understand triangle, square, and peanut butter.

You can back pedal all you want, it's not an isk injection and no one will ever reprocess one on purpose. So nothing will happen to the economy or the mineral market.

I'm more pissed off about CCP killing the Genolution Core Augmentation Implant market. It must be hard to find things to give away. Thanks heaps CCP.

Can someone point me to the "cpp is killing my market investment" thread.

The best way to protect your investment is to simply start ganking pods. With Tags4Sec coming soon, its a win-win to start burning sec status by ganking pods on the undock.

That is a good idea. I like the way you think.

Insurance on hull loss, however, is an isk injection.
An injection I'm most likely going to take. :P

A Genosis [sic] is very cool looking.

It's spelled "Gnosis," which is a Greek word meaning "knowledge" and not "Genosis", where the root "gen" (also Greek) would imply creation, birth, or origin.

Naming it the Gnosis is CCP's hint that it's really intended to be a platform for exploration (even less surprising that it's being introduced with an expansion focusing largely on exploration). It's bonused for all weapon types, has balanced resistances (which would be useful against the Sleepers in wormholes, which do omni damage), balanced slot layouts for tanking and utility mods alike.
