Ha anyone have issue with getting data cores from your agent?

I can seem to get them to give me more than one at a time even though I have RP and money for 80+ of them.

Only collected them on one alt since Crius and it worked fine. Collected a few hundred from four different research agents. Be sure you leave the max amount selected after you click the "Buy Datacores" button and don't change it to one.

It is setting to one and will not let me change it.

Wonder if it is something the accidently changed with this mornings maintenance.

Hmm now it seems to be working, never mind.

Been literally years since I collected my datacores

I stopped shorty after it became somewhat pointless. Is datacore farming worth it?

Possible... It's been a few days since I did it myself.

If they sell (which they do) how can it not be worth it? If you're willing to sell to me for an under-market price (since you don't want them anyway) just let me know. Blink

As Mara Rinn succinctly put it, it just isn't worth the travel time involved.

I'd give you all my datacores if I didn't have to collect them myself.

If it is worth it, is iffy, however since once they are they up they still make more money than the isk you pay to buy them from the agent.

Your agents need to be in a place where you can afk to at least though for pick ups when you are doing other things.
