It's been a day, surely someone must have dropped the $12k to buy every skill point in the game by now? no?

Why would they post here? To be ridiculed by you?

Do your own research on eveboard.com.

I have no ridicule for someone with the resources to enjoy a hobby to the fullest. No, my ire is more of those calling out the sky is falling and that EVE has become fully Pay2Win.

I ask here because we're a community, and that would be quite an achievement I doubt someone would keep to themselves.

I imagine that someone did buy the injects, and then proceeded to undock with them in their cargo from Jita.

The loot fairy probably wasn't kind either.

I'm not sure its possible for EVE to become pay to win. I personally (as someone with under 40m skill points) would love to fight a brand new player who bought 200m SPs and undocked in a several billion ISK ship. It would be easier to fight that new player than a 10 year vet on a 10 mil SP alt flying a frigate.

Besides, with the ability to get ISK for plex as well as the character bazaar, someone buying skillpoints was already possible.

I was very much against skill injectors but they way they implemented it works for me. I have > 80 mil SP and could care less if people catch up. I don't like the notion that people are paying for SP that have already been paid for but it's not my money so knock yourself out.

Skill and experience will break any wallet tank.
Personally I'm looking forward to the week old marouder pilots(you know it will happen)

In my opinion, the only way for EVE to become Pay to Win is for there to be a way to insert cash to make someone else's ship immediately explode, or take sov, or mine out a belt. Because really, what is "winning" in EVE?
The point has been made countless times that every ship has a max amount of SP it can utilize, and even that fluctuates with fittings. There is no difference between a player with all skills trained, and a player with perfect frigate skills. This is why I support the skill injectors, it helps the individual reach their personal endgame and progression so they can play with the toys they want in the sandbox.

It's a real eye-opener looking at the data there.

I'll have to admit I hadn't even thought about this yet. But since the removal of medical clones you once again can theoretically lose everything in EVE. That's pretty cool.

Is that laugh good, or laugh bad? I've got a character that has had implants in off and on, and had training interrupted a few times that has around 2,492 SP/h average (just checked). What is the "natural" maximum, with remap and +5 implants?

Already seeing some ridiculous numbers appearing on Eveboard. Somebody has 542,829 SP/h. Not sure whether to laugh at that, or shake my head. Bit of both, probably.

The fastest you've ever been able to train for any prolonged period of time was 2,772 SP/h, and that was in the period between Apocrypha and Incursion (2009–2010). Previous to that, you could get a bit higher with very specific RBA-builds in relation to specific skill groups, but you couldn't maintain it for very long. After that, the max was 2,700 SP/h.

What you're looking at is a 2003 character that has 10% higher average SP/h over a 13 year period than has ever been possible. It's pretty ridiculous.
