I would like to discuss the idea of an industrious way of making implants using both pve and PvP means in game.

So implants can be bought with lp and isk so on and so forth. My idea, my thought is that implants become harvestable from corpses in space.

You don't get the implant you get implant salvage, like a fused neural net, or carbon or some other key element for the process of making another implant.

Tech 2 implants will drop a blue salvage from the implants and the corpse will be consumed.
Tech 1 implants will drop a green or gray set of implant salvage and the corpse with be consumed.
Empty corpses give a biomass residue such as carbon or a basic element.


Bpc's should be made for every implant set and should continue to be bought with lp/isk.

New module for salavaging implants from corpses in space.

Give me your thoughts please and thanks for reading.

Keep the ones you want to keep turn the rest into isk, if you want to keep a corpse as a trophy there should be like a bronzing service in station. Making corpses like trading cards later lol.

+1 This would continue the honored tradition of player controlled sand box. By making the player the attributes to make new implants resulting in a recycle effect.

I also see this as a way to easily put new implant sets into the game via lp stores.

Would this not collapse the implant market, removing an ISK sink and a decent source of isk for newbies? (What else are they going to do with their mission LP?)

Buy ships, mods, implant bpcs for building the implants

But the implants won't be worth buying, the ships are already not worth buying from regular LP stores, neither are most of the mods...

Different bpc's from different pirates and or corporations. I'm not saying take the implants off the LP store but add the industrial side to making implants. This also means new pos mods to make implants.

Why didn't you post this idea first?! It's genius! Shocked

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

That depends on the demand of the market.

So far today, about 1,000 +3 perception implants have sold in Jita. That's quite a market, and removing the need to spend ISK at the LP store to get them will drop the price. Which is what I have been trying to get through to you.

Your not seeing the recycling effect. The main attribute in the process of making a player made implant is another player's corpse. Thus resulting in more people podding, requiring new clonees to buy new implants. Get it?

No, not really. When do people not get the pod?

+1. This idea also has the added benefit of making me feel like I'm being podkilled for profit, rather than people just hating me so much they want to see me burn.

Pods for profit, I can already imagine CCP guard's corpse bronzed or platinumed into A trophy to sit in a avatar size case in my captain's quarters.
