Jita Park Speakers Corner

Thread for thoughts, comments, etc on the EVE Economy and EVE Economy session. Let us know if there's any questions you want asked or any general things you'd like us to bring up and focus on.

I miss those as well, along with the data trivia that used to get dropped now and again on twitter that gace us snapshots of new eden

I think you should ask CCP if they plan to do something to give more incentive for 0.0 power blocks to recruit more industrialist in their ranks (other then renters).

As for what should be done I think Mittani's explanation why they are not recruiting them provides quite clear indication what should be done to change that.

Additional materials that were added into blueprints hinder nullsec industry significantly.
It is not a healthy situation when you mine ore in null, sell minerals in Jita, buy a ship there, and transport it back in null.
Any plans on fixing that issue?

I for one would love to see the return of the QEN

If we raised transaction taxes to 10% per sec level, trade hubs would "naturally" develop in 0.1 sec and nullsec as a "simple outcome of supply and demand".

It seems I described it wrong. In fact those "additional materials" hinder industry everywhere, I just made the emphasize on nullsec as the worst place to do industry even without that issue.

Before the tiercide, 1-st and 2-nd tier ships were rather cheap, because their blueprints used little materials to produce. Right before the changes in blueprints, people have built crap tons of those ships. They thought: "I'm gonna build it cheap now, and sell with profit after the patch, when they become more expensive".

But the time is passing by, and those prices dont come even close to the equilibrium. If you buy some minerals now and build a Dominix for sale - you'll be in a huge loss. And rumors say this situation can last for years. It was a similar situation with planetary commodities, and we can still witness that Guidance Systems are priced lower than their precursors - after so many time from those changes in PI (I dont even know when it happened).

Yet, this time it is not an isolated product - but a wide range for ships. If I start producing them in nullsec, I will not be able to explain to the customers why they should buy my ships, instead of importing them from Jita. So yes, it hurts to the industry in null.

That is an interesting idea, As a general rule i like the idea of taxing high sec transaction simply for the fact that safety should come at a price.

As to what i would like to know about the eve economy i'm curious about inflation the last i have heard about it was that the isk sinks to faucets ratio was way out of balanced

I'm curious where the isk is being generated rather it be from null sec anoms or incursions or blue tags from WH space.

I'm curious about assets that generate revenue such as blue prints and POCOS and what the destruction rate of those are.

I'm glad someone is keeping an eye on these subjects for is eve economy is likely the single most important aspect of the game and because its just numbers its something that could be easily overlooked to accomplish short term goals.
