Hi

I have another question regarding invention and you guys were helpful in the past.

Does the BPO's ME and PE affect anything in an invention run?

It seems to me that it doesn't, but confirmation from someone more experienced would be great

thanks!

BPC ME and PE have no effect on Invention whatsoever.

Number of runs is very important though.

Max run BPC of ammo, drones, modules etc will result in a 10-run T2 BPC.

When it comes to ships, using a max run BPC enables Decryptors to be used. Without the BPC being max run, any Decryptor added to the recipe will fail to work.
Max run ship BPC will only give a single run unless you use a Decryptor.

The wiki does a fairly good job of answering the "how many runs do I need" question.

(Modules/Ammo/Drone invention is always done using max-run T1 BPCs.)
