The Chatter is all getting around...The community will find out about the people who no longer work at CCP and play eve within the CFC. Atleast that is what the eve community hears. Would CCP lie to us about it ? It would not be CCPs faulty anyway not 100%. I assume these ex employees signed NDAs but once they no longer work for you...DO you think they will hold to them ? I think not but... regardless this nerf is great and I am glad CCP is doing something about the re-balance. Here goes another 8 years of EVE :) The simple fix for that is to flip it to something else and the ill gotten intel is worthless simple

Fly safe.

PS ISD Tyrozan
The truth will come out. If this is either true or false the answer always comes out. I personally have no damn Idea. But you think it is just coincidence ?

I do not belong to the tech cartell,
but i really think this is something that you (CCP) should not "FIX".

The Tech-Cartell is CONTENT that was created by players,
and it's not up to you to "fix" that. It's something we players should fix.

Instead of listening to all the whiners, you should tell 'em
"htfu retards, form a new coalition and teach those tech bastards a lesson"
changing the game so they don't have their "advantage" anymore means
invalidating what they have done, and taking the content of slapping them for doing it from us.

stop removing content. rather give us new toys.

Hey, as far as i can see, the drone regions are pretty vibrant, theres a sea of life up near the top right now and near daily fighting (more than can be said for your coalition) and they nerfed supers and somehow my group still beat the **** out of your group.


Try not to be too sad, you've only wracked up about 300 million in fines for public posting

Do not forget the best one recently discovered in last few years.. Nickel, hydrogen and carbon. 100C at 25 PSI ...Nickel transmutates to Copper .during a LENR. Low Energy Nuclear Reaction. Creates immense heat with no radioactivity outside the unit. Picograms of nickel can produce many KW of heat for 3 months or more. Anyway back on topic CCP great work.

Assumably nanotechnology is beyond you. It is theoretically possible to turn anything into anything else.

nanotechnology involves precision molecular fabrication. Creating elements from other elements is something we've been doing since the 1940s (uranium into neptunium into plutonium, two hydrogen atoms into one helium, etc). Manufacturing elements is just energy intensive to do, yet nowhere near the level of energy consumption that lots of fundamental EVE technology uses constantly (wormholes, cynos, warp drives, lasers).

The worst thing about Fiberton's posting is, he's actually unironically topposting.

Continuing his perfect badpost track record, Grath Telkin conflates the present post-compound post-Dodger drone regions with the situation it was in when he made the statement.

No you won't, just like alchemy was supposed to be the holy grail, as you guys tried to tell us, it never really was.

Also if this means that you guys are going to manipulate the market then well you might as well remove the complete economy.....

First off glad this is all getting looked at.

I wanted to show some real numbers to the profitability of this:
Cobalt 100 x 24 x 7 = 16,800 = approx 128,100,000isk/wk
Platinum 100 x 24 x 7 = 16,800 = approx 106,476,552isk/wk
128,100,000isk + 106,476,552isk = 234,576,522isk/wk

Produces Platinum Technite which refines into
Platinum Technite 10/hr x 24hrs x 7days = 1,680units = approx 176,566,303.20isk/wk
Platinum 95/hr x 24hrs x 7days = 15,960 = approx 101,184,644.40isk/wk
Output value per wk = 277,750,947.60isk

Approx Large Tower fuel cost = 147,840,000isk/wk
Approx Medium Tower fuel cost = 73,920,000isk/wk

Profits
Large Tower = 277,750,947.60 - 147,840,000 = 129,910,947.60isk/wk
Medium Tower = 277,750,947.60 - 147,840,000 = 203,830,947.60isk/wk

So the above isk values are based on current Jita avg sell prices via eve-central. (Not worth nit picking isk prices when dealing with this size of numbers, and values fluctuate). Also I'm assuming your doing this on a single tower, it's doable but to get both resources on a single moon isn't likely, so you probably end up with multiple POS's or shipping one of the resources in, either way it would cut into the profit margin. As you can see at currently inflated market values it would be marginally profitable to do this reaction but if PlatTech went down it wouldn't be worth doing any more. Even at these numbers the risk is moderately high considering you have a billion isk POS set up (including fuel) to do this.


You have to properly compare it

Platinum technite income 176,566,303isk/wk
Selling (or not buying) cobalt + tech 5,323,827 + 128,100,000 = 133,423,827isk/wk
Actual reaction profit 176,566,303 - 133,423,827 = 43,142,476isk/wk

There are way better reactions out there if thats what youre looking for. Sure if you own a cobalt moon go for it but its not exactly something to go to war for.

Bah. More pre-nerfed weaksauce from CCP. Won't change anything in the short term. Straight

But at least it is an attempt at an interim step while working on a future "fix". Unlike with ship rebalancing where we'll be waiting a couple years before they get around to addressing the problem ships. Ugh

edit- both of which (tech stupidity and ship imbalances) have been festering in this game way too long.
