But, the NERF to my datacore production by more than 50%?
CCP have failed at everything except shooting ships since they recovered from failing at everything, however;
All Datacore prices will have a floor price of 200k and unlikely to go much above 500k.
Datacore supply from R&D agents will half, and assuming demand for them stays the same, that will put an upward price pressure on them.
Ive read datacores are available to FW players at 200k ISK + 200 LP, so when datacore prices get to about 400k it means FW players can cash in their LP for about 1000 ISK per LP, if they get to 500k they are getting 1500 ISK per LP.
Bottom line is its maximum of a 50% nurf.
The good news is that due to half the supply now being dynamic, prices for datacore should stabilize and all even out, so no need to train lots of different science skills to try and get the rare datacores.

Price on sisi the other day was 50k and 50lp. That's is probably the sov4 price, but I don't know why anyone would ever cash in lp at a suboptimal rate. Don't let that stop you from crying though.
"First, the offer requirements in the respective faction LP store will decrease. As such, at the lowest tier, LP store offers will be 4x times more expensive as they are now, while at the highest tier, they will be 4 times as cheap"
K, so now im thinking datacores will vary between 50k ISK+50 LP and 200k ISK+200LP.
Looking at ISK/LP payout rates, it looks like 1300 ISK/LP is the going rate for items that dont need material requirements.
http://www.evemarketeer.com/trade/bestloyaltypoints?faction=500001&corporation=-1
50k ISK + 50LP = 115k ISK/datacore @ 1300 ISK/LP
100k ISK + 100 LP = 230k ISK/datacore @ 1300 ISK/LP
200k ISK + 200 LP = 460k ISK/datacore @ 1300 ISK/LP
So price range isnt going to much different to fluctuations over previous years |

Do I need to cash those in before the nerf, after the nerf, or will CCP 'recalculate' the amount I already accumulated so that before and after the patch I'll be able to buy the same amount of datacores.
They arent "recalculating" any RP.
If you have 300 RP in * Starship Engineering (150RP per Datacore) prior to the patch you can get 2 datacores and pay nothing, after you can get 3 but pay 30k ISK.
Conversely, 300 RP in mechanical engineering will give you 6 datacore now, or 3 later and you will have to pay 30k ISK
So in theory its best to cash in all 50RP per datacore prior to patch, and all 150RP datacores after the patch.
Of course the price is going to fluctuate heaps, so its anyoneGÇÖs guess.

Datacores, are more like come by station once per month, then profit.
This is a no-no for CCPs plan deal with it.
Go join FW and profit!
If datacore farming was so easy and passive, everyone would do it, profits would plunge and there would be nothing to nerf.
CCP have failed to understand the problem, so of course their solution is dumb. |

As for the shitload of skills to 5: They're almost entirely the same skills used in invention, so they haven't been rendered useless. Don't be so melodramatic.
CCP have stated they want to move T2 production to low-sec and zero-sec, so even if the datacore harvester does do use those skills for invention, they are soon to be redundant skills for high sec players
Unless of course CCP fail to live up to their plan of moving T2 production to low and zero sec, which is pretty likely given their track record of achievements.
