Thank you for the reply. Being a hardcore non coder I imagine tool development takes time and never really finishes. That said I look forward to any additional PvE content that comes along, particularly exploration content. I guess the real question can't be answered: When will see new/updated content?

Actually that was mistype on my part (was late and I was tired). I meant to say Data Interface parts.

Sounds like wishful thinking. Just look to decryptor parts from Hacking sites.


So you think the increase in the decryptor supply was some kind of accident or oversight?

That's... lol.

That was on purpose, dude. It's supposed to be that way.

We are aware of the decryptor market crash and the amount of trash items within the containers.

This is something we are currently looking into.


they just never fixed it

That said, what are current NPC buy costs for these? Haven't gotten a chance to log in today. :x


I think you have the right idea, however... CCP will be hesitant to change material costs for the implants. If anything they'll adjust drop rates. I doubt we'll see any new uses for shattered villard wheels.

Regarding CRTs, CCP could definitely make them be used in various invention-type processes for new content. However, in the meantime its fairly certain that they will be cash-tokens like sleeper data libraries. CCP has announced NPC buy orders are coming, which will give ghost sites a good (and IMO necessary) baseline isk value as prices for the wetu and common implants inevitably crash. The cost of raw materials for the implants at least is very significant, and I feel like CCP wants these implants to be affordable, meaning the BPC rarity itself must be low. In which case the CRTs=cash needs to be around to keep people searching for ghost sites. If the sites end up being low-value outside of a yurt/gamma/delta/omega drop, it would be a bad outcome.

CCP has delayed the CRT buy orders to give us some fun market uncertainty and to decide how much to make them worth in the first place.

Er... I haven't checked TQ, but the buy orders were very much in place on SiSi last I checked (500k ea).

Good to know. Although the price point of an NPC buy order is something they could easily change. 500k could well be a placeholder, although thats just about what the markets in Jita seem to think it'll be as well. I'm content to hold onto my stock for now, I'm hoping for like 750k.

Have you actually checked to see if they are, in fact, not on TQ?

AFAIK, they're in NPC null sec only.

Eve-Central, then, has failed you. They are in fact in game and have been since the patch last Thursday (the 21st). Buy orders at all Guristas stations in Venal (haven't checked other pirate factions) for 500k each. What is interesting is the usual NPC buy order (flat) numbers and then one huge, odd-numbered buy order.

I give it higher then even odds that some drunk fat finger at CCP made that mistake, or possibly something will happen when that huge buy order is filled.

Yeah, I just flew out to Syndicate on TQ and they are definitely present. Eve-Central isn't all that reliable a resource for non-hub areas.
