Squeeky Bee	Posted - 2009.12.18 15:55:00 - [1] Repackage and assemble. Intended game mechanic or lazy programming? They reprocess to 1 trit, or you can try to sell them on contracts like everyone else.
Samantha IX	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:08:00 - [2] Same mechanic as with rooky ship ;)
Monistat Seven	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:09:00 - [3] Nothing to see here, move along. (There go my profits.)
Squeeky Bee	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:12:00 - [4] Originally by: Samantha IX Same mechanic as with rooky ship ;) You can't reprocess the fittings with the rookie ship, and the tritanium takes more time to get.
Lost Hamster Hamster Holding Corp	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:12:00 - [5] I think you can not put that probe lanucher to any other ship, as the Zephyr, so it's pointless...
Ghoest	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:14:00 - [6] You get a free mineral or whatever with every rookie ship so its the same net effect noob. Wherever you went - Here you are.
DeadRow Caldari Veto Corp	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:14:00 - [7] Probably a bug but its not really important. Iris Launchers can only fit on a zephyr so having spares isn't all that useful and you'll get more trit out of five minutes mining than repackaging, assembling and reprocessing for five minutes.

TimMc Gallente Psykotic Meat Wildly Inappropriate.	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:34:00 - [8] Made me laugh to see people in jita selling stacks of 10 of them for 1mil. They are pretty useless things, horrible launchers and don't reprocess to anything worth the effort of getting them.
LordSwift Caldari SWG-RoNaN-BloOdFiN	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:37:00 - [9] anything to get people to buy a scam. i find it pathetic. dont people play the game
Imperator Jora'h	Posted - 2009.12.18 16:37:00 - [10] Originally by: Lost Hamster I think you can not put that probe lanucher to any other ship, as the Zephyr, so it's pointless... ^^This. Knock yourself out making new probe launchers all you like. Won't do you a bit of good though as they are worthless except to clutter your hangar. The things only work on the Zephyr and are otherwise valueless. -------------------------------------------------- "Of course," said my grandfather, pulling a gun from his belt as he stepped from the Time Machine, "there's no paradox if I shoot you!"

Kalnov Gallente Problematique Inc.	Posted - 2009.12.18 17:09:00 - [12] Let's say you have all the time in the world. Let's say you magically have 10,000 Zephyrs. (How many subs do we have? 50k log on daily, so this is theoretically possible) Let's say the server/GMs won't kill you for doing this. Take 10k Zephyrs, assemble, repackage them. You get 1 launcher which can be reprocessed into one tritanium. You can do this, let's say every 5 seconds. That's 12 times a minute, so 120,000 trit per minute. Multiply this by 60 for an hour, you get 7,200,000 trit an hour. Let's multiply this by a generous 2.5 pricetag of tritanium. It's worth a bit more, but let's go with 2.5. You can get 18,000,000 an hour just doing this. Essentially making 18m/hr out of thin air. Imagine if you had 50,000 of these. Or 100,000. Interesting how CCP invented another tritanium fountain.

In order for your theory to work you'd need to get 10,000 people to agree to waste their time doing who knows for how long assembling/repackaging zephyrs for no other reason than to prove your point that it's possible. Good luck getting 10,000 players to do nothing but package/repackage for the next few hours just so they can end up with a couple of extra trits in the hangar. Grief a PVP'er. Run a mission today!

Magnus Orin Minmatar United Systems Navy Zenith Affinity	Posted - 2009.12.18 17:29:00 - [17] Been selling them on contracts all day yesterday and made a decent profit off them. People are dumb enough to buy them.

Seriously, you're better off putting up an argument that 10,000 people mining in Ospreys can produce Lord knows how many billions of trit in a day, thus breaking Eve, because I rather do that then packaging and repackaging a ship. I was meaning that one person would have the 10,000 Zephyrs. Sorry about not being clear. Originally by: Alex Raptos I think he's implying that someone would waste their money buying Zephyrs People are offering money for them. I don't understand it either unless they're actually doing what I proposed.

But seriously, there are better ways to use a sweat shop or bot. Grief a PVP'er. Run a mission today!

That's impossible to tell if they buy them one at a time. I'm not going through all the contracts, you can though. Actually its quite possible. Look up someone who has bought one on a public contract, check contract history, TADA, all their public contracts. They sure as hell aren't going to get large quantities from private contracts.

Juliette Leblanc Gallente Federal Navy Academy	Posted - 2009.12.18 19:41:00 - [23] Originally by: Kalnov Take 10k Zephyrs, assemble, repackage them. You get 1 launcher which can be reprocessed into one tritanium. You can do this, let's say every 5 seconds. If you think assembling and repackaging 10k items takes 5 seconds, you have no experience in EvE. If you were to give one of those commands you will then have to wait several minutes for it to complete. Originally by: CCP Prism X In New Eden, EVE wins you.
Opportunity Costs Caldari	Posted - 2009.12.18 19:46:00 - [24] im sure there is at least 1 nerd spending the whole friday getting countless iris launchers to accumulate them 'for pleasure' or even better to TRY to sell them on market for profit maybe he finds a buyer that would pay 1k ISK for them... roflcopter opportunity costs, as a whole friday missioning would throw 200+ millions __________________________________ - Mining your own minerals doesnt drop your manufacturing costs! - Marginal earnings is what actually counts - Time is isk and enjoyment is isk aswell

Dirk Magnum Royal Hiigaran Navy	Posted - 2009.12.18 19:52:00 - [26] Current contract spamming in Amarr is all about this thing. People trying to sell 20 or 30 of them at a time for 10 mil or so. I just suicided a Zephyr that didn't even have its Iris launcher fitted, although it was full of cheap skillbooks

You just made the stupidest post I have seen on the forums this year(an acomplishment.) You rather careful explain how even in the most impossibly perfect conditions it would not be worth while to do this. Then you claim its an ist foutain. Wherever you went - Here you are.
Fifinella Caldari Fringe Exploration And Salvage Trust	Posted - 2009.12.19 23:09:00 - [28] Let's not forget you can only have 1000 stacks in your hangar at any one time (or 1000 containers each containing 1000 stacks, but I digress). So at best you could do this with 1000 ships to create 1000 launchers. Not 10 000.

Uh-huh, and the first person to do the scary mass-assemble-and-repackage exploit catches a 3-day ban for stressing out the database server for a pittance of tritanium/hr _____________________ R.I.P Old face
Ashira Twilight	Posted - 2009.12.20 00:10:00 - [30] How many people do you think are doing this crap right now? A waste of server resources if you ask me. ---------------------------------------
