Rapidly, and continuing to drop rapidly.
Could be something to do with the number of implants entering the game being.. twn times higher --------

It could be that implants are now being offered more frequently after the last patch. One of those undocumented features.
If that's true, what you are seeing now is a transition in prices, which will continue until it stabilizes at new equilibrium.

Supply and demand again. I've had several implants for loyalty point offers. Latest was 4 +3 int implants for 60k.

Actually, it's probably to do with the agent offers for large groups of implants. Such as one agent offer I have heard of that gives 8 +3 implants. Anyone happen to know the offers?

Yep, I've noticed it too. 30-50 million for a +3, 95-120 million for a +4.
As it should be really.

It was documented that agent offers were tweaked, the notes just didn't go into a lot of detail about it. I think many of us were surprised about how much implant offers changed, but we were warned. |

Oh well atleast I made some nice isk before word got out.
+3 implants should drop a lot as they seem to have increase drop rate of these. Now that they increased the LP reward in low sec also it doesnt take long to get these.

Yes, Implant prices are dropping, and will probably drop to BELOW the pre-exodus prices, at least for +3 and below implants.
Its happening because Implant awards for Loyalty Points have been made more frequent, and can award multiple implants.
This is a good thing, for several reasons.
The in game inflation that has occured sense Exodus is due to too much isk and not enough goods to spend isk on.
All additional "goods" added to the game are good at this time. Bigger loot drops, bigger awards, etc.
This addition implants will drive down implant prices most, but will also help fight inflation over all. More goods = less inflation.
Lower implant prices will also mean less pain for folks losing implants.

the agent changes basically lowered overall rewards in .6 sec space and up and made low sec and 0.0 sec agents much more reward friendly - ive also noticing a drift of the agent runner players drifting further out into the outer regions - check the map the old areas that never lit up are starting to show up with more players and pirate and police kills etc as well as more player jumps and player kills.
I think the exodus has take a step in the right direction.
A good sign how changing some of the economics in the game can help

One of our guys got 8x +3 Willpower implants for 120k LPs. Funnily enough, he took it
Originally by: Sergeant Spot The in game inflation that has occured sense Exodus is due to too much isk and not enough goods to spend isk on.
Yep, pretty much spot on. "fresh" isk coming in too quickly and easily and not enough leaving. CCP does realise this and is changing things which should help combat the issues.
Originally by: Sergeant Spot This addition implants will drive down implant prices most, but will also help fight inflation over all. More goods = less inflation.
Not quite correct. It'll lower inflation on implant prices. But it's still welcome.
Doubt the prices will ever lower to the prices I got my first ever +3 implants for (4.2m perc, 4m will, 10m int, 16m mem) though
Originally by: Sergeant Spot Lower implant prices will also mean less pain for folks losing implants.
I think this is key to the whole idea. The devs have asked people repeatedly "What is the main thing that stops you moving from high sec empire to low sec/0.0" The overwhelming answer is always implants. Implants are one of the best and worst things in Eve. I know a load of people personally that would love to gamble on low-sec/0.0, but can't afford to replace their 5 +3 implants (not many people can). If a replacement set were available, they'll go out and try their luck. And they won't be the only ones. This was what the devs would certainly love to see.

also with it being easier to pod someone now you will see demand increase aswell. looks like the devs saw this, handing out extra will help this too.

+3 Implants are now dropping for 15k LP per unit from the agents.
About time they come down in price, its nice for the noobs to work towards and not so far fetched anymore.
Good Job CCP, about time

Another SWEET detail on Implant awards:
In the past, +3 Implants were 10,000LP + Stuff
Now they are 15,000LP, and ZERO Stuff.
Thanks CCP.

Good
Maybe ill buy a set now, also maybe more people with pvp now that they wont be hard to replace.
I can remember buying a whole set of +3's for 50m and thinking that was too much, I still think its too much but its nice to see them come down in price.
WTB Set +3 implants for 20m
