If i buy all the bpo that is necessary to build a carrier and do me so wastage factor =0,0% and some pe.

also if i buy a carrier bpo and do ME so Wastage factor = 0,0%


Will the market value increase significantly or not. And how much.

Go in-game and have a look at the researched BPOs on contract. That should give you an idea. That said, you don't research cap ship BPOs to perfect ME, it would take years.

Bear in mind, everything is changing a lot in 5 weeks time.

A very, very general estimate is 50-150m per month of research. This varies a lot based on type of bpo / me vs pe / market trends / etc.

Funny, my caps are perfect at somewhere around 8 months of total time invested ...

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

http://zofu.no-ip.de/bpo Use this to see just how much each point of research matters.. hint, not as much as youd think after the first 2 for the hull.

A ballpark figure is 5% of the NPC value per month, as most people want a return on their investment of at least this amount.

Just look at the BPO's available on contracts to see how much researched BPOs will be worth.

Atm a lot of people are firesaleing their researched BPOs so depending what you want you should be able to get them cheaper atm. CCP Greyscale has announced the details for the additional POS array bonuses and it doesn't look very economic. My comments went down like a day trip to hell.

Am I right in thinking anything researched to over 10 (i.e. 11) at the moment will magically become perfect when the industry changes arrive?

more or less ... CCP kinda ****** up with cap ship prints* though --> they're already "numbers perfect" at around 6-8 (11-16 months with Metallurgy 5 ... but I think it's closer to 7 months / 1 year if you used a POS).



*well, everything where "perfect" is less than 10.

Somehow seems wrong. I mean a time investment of 5 years would be reasonable. Lol Give these things real value.
