Posting in a "I don't have a T2 BPO, so neither should anybody else" thread.
You want to remove T2 BPO's?
Convert them to patents, 10-15% additional tax whenever one of the items is sold or put on contracts and is split among everyone who has a "patent" for that item. Item's with no T2 BPO's would not be subject to the royalty.
No more 'competition' from T2 BPO's for inventors at all. T2 patents still have significant value.
Of course, most inventards would be against this too, because really they just want to see us get nerfed in the name of fairness.

Originally by: Athar Mu Dunno what you are inventing but I'm making a ton of isk off invention.
Like I always ask in threads like this;
'Why whenever I do the maths for inventing Marauders it is always not profitable? Cos they don't have BPO's, and by following your logic they should be profitable because they don't have a T2 BPO making them unprofitable. Or has someone managed to get a BPO for them and not told anyone?!'
BoB has the T2 Battleship BPO's
True story.

If they boosted T2 invention so that it cost 50% less ISK to build the items than that of the T2 BPO's, invention would be just as profitable as it is today.
If they made T2 items cost 1 ISK to make with no materials required, you'd still see people selling their wares for 0.8 ISK. Of course it would take some time for it to happen, but it would get there eventually.

Originally by: Athar Mu I like the suggestion of making ME/PE of the T1 BPO affect the ME/PE of the T2 BPC. That would make me even more isk which would be nice.
I really hope CCP don't cave into the whiners and remove or change T2 BPO's but alter invention instead.
CCP can not make invention more profitable unless they add risk. Players are the ones driving down the profits. If they make it so invention is twice as efficient as T2 BPO's, inventors still are competing against other inventors.
The competition between these inventors will drive down the prices. You have to remember that inventors are the ones that brought cap recharger II's from 20 million ISK down to 500-750k, not the T2 BPO owners.
Any changes made to invention that make you more profit, you will eventually be competing against the next guy that decides to take less profit than you.
If you really want profit in invention, then make it low sec pos only, or at the very least, pos only.
