does anyone know why this was changed with Cirus ?
i manufactured fighters/drone control units and other capital stuff pre cirus and now the manufacturing time for those is ~4 times faster which completly crushed the profit ... couldnt find the reason why the manufacturing time was changed so drasticly on those items.

the reasoning was pretty simple:

Nope, no compelling reason, I just picked numbers that looked pretty.


that sounds harsh, but in the end is the same thing they did before. keep in mind that other items had their manufacturing time increased by quite a lot (large ammo, fuel blocks) with the same reasoning.

i already talked about the same thing with Greyscale here:

well, thats ridiculous but thanks for the info. those bpo's used to have >1mio isk/h and now its almost not worth it to built them for value(some exceptions ofc).
