Anyone know if this skill is in the game yet?
I trained up Research 5 and Lab Ops 4 in preparation a few weeks ago but still aint found it or is it as mythical as Science Graduates?!
Name: Research Project Management
Group Skill: Science
Description Skill at overseeing agent research projects. +1 to Max Active research agents per level
Base Price 1000000
Primary attribute: Memory
Secondary attribute: Charisma Primary Skill required: Laboratory Operation 4 Secondary Skill required: Research 5
Tertiary Skill required: Social
Training time multiplier 8
Also does anyone know if there will be any limitations on this skill..
QUESTIONS:
Can I (when I get it) go for example to a Viziam RP agent and start Amarrian Starship Engineering and then go to Khanid Innovations RP agent and start Amarrian Starship Engineering with him too and then a Carthum agent too?
Can I start multiple research with the same agent? I am currently researching ASEngineering with a good level 3 agent. The same agent also has skills in 2/3 other 'science' areas.
Rather than having to fly around 5 seperate research agents to do the RP missions everynight it would be handy if I could have 3/4 projects with the same agent.
Otherwise I envision that my 3/4 hr of playing time each night would be taken up simply by satisfying and completing missions for my RP agents (which is an expensive process) - leaving no time for hunting Minnies or other cash raising activities!

Yes, I'd really like to hear about this too. I've had the pre-reqs all ready for weeks now, give me the skill!

A heads up on this would be nice as I'm ready to get it.
At a guess i'd say it will only be available through agent mission, but I may be talking out of my backside on that one.

I started working on the skills that are supposed to be required for this skill... then I stop and thought for a moment and started to wonder why I'd want to torture myself with more than one research project. Taking care of one whiny researcher is a test of patience as is, I don't think I want to deal with more than one of them at a time. -------------------- Newbie for life! |

I was just double checking the stats for the RPM skill at eve-db, and it appears some things have changed. Most notably, requiring Lab Op 5 instead of 4, and a base price listing of 40 mil instead of 1 mil. I can understand increasing to more than a mil, but I sure hope 40 turns out to be wrong.

I noticed the 4->5 change a week or so ago and trained accordingly, but I am also assuming 40 mil is wrong. They couldn't really price a skill at 40 mil, could they? I couldn't find any for sale from an NPC corp on Chaos to find out.

Edited by: Hellek on 26/02/2004 13:32:38 Why look on chaos, look on TQ ... It really IS 40mill. I did not buy it yet, not sure if it is worth the price. Maybe for T3 but in T2 there are so many people who already have huge amounts of RP, on the other hand it still would be cool to have a few more projects. Hmm, well, still unsure ...

Oh goody... so I trained Reserach to 5 and Lab Ops to 4 for no reason then
Because at 40 million I am not sure its worth having 3/4 additional research projects on the go when I have NO IDEA how many tech 2 blueprints are still to be distributed and Tech 3 probably (knowing CCP) wont be introduced for a bloody long time and then there is a bloody good chance I wont get a BP anyway *sigh*...
Oh and who wants 4/5 whiney research agent emails everynight anyway!
Once again CCP's wonderful communications and decision making makes me want to cry!

Maybe becasue it wasn't on TQ when I made my post? Anyway, I'd like to hear a dev say it really is supposed to be 40 mil before I try to talk my corp into buying it...

well they're all at 40 mill in forge so unless someone ran around buying up the entire stock and reselling it then it seems it is 40 million

Way to tell if its NPC price or not is for someone who -has- bought it at 40mil to check their wallet.
If it was a character that sold it to them, then its been resold. If its an NPC corp, then its intentional, or nominally, a typo.

Could we get some confirmation from a Dev that this skill is really supposed to be 40 mil? I think we've all been screwed enough times on skill packs because of our own naivetÚ. I don't think any of us want to be taken for 40 mil worth.

So how are the people from small corps suppose to afford that?

Any info on the abilities and or limits on the RPM skill. Can I, or can I not: Research multiple fields with the same agent? eg. Rocket + Starship Research the same field with more than one agent?
Oh and about the "is this a player trying to scam or is it npc price" Go check the market history. If there were multiple sells for say 4 mill, and all skills are now 40 mill. It would have indicated that someone was trying to scam.

It's 20M cheaper than the cheapest battleship - how are people in small corps supposed to be able to afford them? RPM is the equivalent of a battleship to someone doing research, and (thankfully) it's been priced accordingly.

*nods*
Also, since the prereq's are fairly high, some of us will have a good amount of time to earn the isk necessary to buy the skill before we can learn it. *bleahs, looking at an outside of 11 days pre-training*

But its not a battleship....its a skill You pay 4 mil for a skill to fly a BS...
So why pay 40mil just to be able to use a few extra research agents?
and we quite happily already have 5 or 6 people in BS flying about...so dont give me small corps cant afford it rubbish

40M will prevent god and everybody from having it.
And thats the point really. With a price tag like that its not like there will be a lots of alts used only for this...
Its a great balance move. Imho way to many skills are all to cheap. The corp mgmt skills springs to mind.

With the skill, if i have 2 agents studying for example graviton physics, do the research points stack together?
