Originally by: Gaogan Thought this change was supposed to LOWER the costs?
LOL No.. It was designed to reduce the Reactor requirements which uses Dyspro, which was a multi-billion ISK a month moon.
They changed it to reduce the usage stress on Dyspro and push it over to the abundant underused faction mineral. This was definatly a play by CCP to shrink the big alliances. Why protect a Dyspro moon 30 jumps away from your alliances main base of operation when you can upgrade to a carbide moon very quickly and without the need to protect the moon so far away.
The main stream ISK generator was clearly focused on the Armor plates which are HEAVY in factional mineral. Like Tungsten, Titianium, Crystalin etc.
While some where buying up all the new changes, I purchased a few T2 ships knowing that their price was about to HIKE!
Enjoy trying to build against an inventory from marketing people with loads of ISK that purchased up all the T2 ships they could :)

Originally by: Mahke CCP does not appear to like ultra-expensive t2 (or math, but, that's another story) and t2 ship prices this high WILL cause ccp to swing the nerfbat.
I'd actually agree with that statement if it wasn't for T3 ships.
CCP pushed T3 as "the middle ground" between T1 and T2.
T1 being cheap and disposable T2 being highly specialized T3 being jack of all, master of none.
If T3 is floating around 200mil, and T2 prices are jacked up to 400-500mil then I would believe CCP are not going to nerf that.

Originally by: Fearr Dorchaa Are some t2 ships going to be unaffected or are the ripples outward taking their time to reach the whole t2 ship market?
Smaller T2 ships will be some of the last to be affected.
At the moment you have marketing people buying up the larger T2 ships because they will have the largest ISK value increase. A 10m T2 frigate is only going to go up to say 20-30mil. Where as a Commandship/Hulk/Battleships etc are going to go up in price by several hundred million ISK.
