The only people this nerf negatively affects are the people who have created several (even dozens) of accounts to take advantage of passive income that datacores offered. With the new changes these people are suddenly realizing that all the accounts that were being paid for from just datacore farming will not either not able able to as easily PLEX themselves and will have to go inactive.

In reality the new changes are actually quite good for the people who do not dozens of accounts, and for the people who have only one or two accounts chances are they will make MORE isk in regards to selling datacores and inventing.

So to summarize, the new changes screw over datacore farmers (hooray!), while directly having a fairly positive affect on players who actually do use datacores invention / T2 manufacturing.

Research never paid an Account. Fact is i am a researcher and can produce 10 Drones a Day without buying my research equip from FW Pilots who grind Datacores liek 5 per 15min? How is can this be fair. I wasted 40million ISK and alot of standing Grinding and flying time to get my Research Agents running and now they are worse than PI (measured at ISK) which can be trained by everyone (even non R&D Toons) in a few day. HOW IS THIS FAIR????
Tell me !!!

Before the agent quality changes with 3 chars doing 5 agents each provided for around a PLEX a month (higher return on DCs and lower PLEX price).

And you do realize FW pilots do actually have to do something to get the LP? (how easy it may be).

Getting 3 characters to do that required a considerable amount of time and effort and was only really possible when datacore prices were considerably higher than in recent history

The whole idea of datacores was a passive income when they were introduced, phasing that out now is unfair to the people that built for it.
