I say, if we want to stop the climate change, we need to invent cars that dont use petrol!

This should totally be done and if someone manages to do that, you heard it here first!

I will be the savior of the world!

Frigate paint; around 45 AURUM (~$0.23-$0.26) for a single application
Battleship paint; around 350 AURUM (~$1.75-$2.00) for a single application

I never use AURUM, but what is ratio for 1 AURUM to ISK?

not matter I use google and got answer around 125k isk per 1AU

basically, BS paint would be 43 million isk price tag

It SHOULDNT work like that, it should be 1 skin/color per plex, you can use it everytime on that one ship.

So say you bought an X skin for a drake.

You can now apply X skin on any drake you fly.


^ This is how it should work.


And if you trade that drake, the new pilot wont be able to activate the skin, obviously.

Peace.



Yes OP, you were the first and only person that has concidered customizing the colour of our ships, bravo.

Um, I'm looking at the Lonetrek market as we speak.

7.9 mil for a 100 Aurum token.

Your info is wrong.

I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?

CCP always comes up with the best ideas. I think we should be able to make them in game, pay a plex to have CCP review and approve them, then allow that player to sell for isk exclusively. I would create a target one and give away to miners for free.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

I understand your point, ..

But where they would excel was if they had different skins for same ship, each skin at different prices, so the rarity would increase in the most expensive skins.

You should read the dev blog, particularly the part where they state, in no uncertain terms, that this current model of ship skinning is just a prototype to test popularity.

Now, if only they also add kill counters my life will be complete.

I hate to break it to you, but I have a sneaking suspicion that you aren't the first person to ever suggest that.

ship painting has been suggested more times than shooting people in stations.

still not as many times as "nerf highsec", "nerf goons" and "add bitcoin as a payment method because im a lazy nerd and i refuse to get a job"
