This will help a little but does nothing about the remaining static source of isk from Tech that is totaly located in the north. The price of tech will be capped as With Prom and Dysp from the first batch of Alchemy but the prices will remain high.
Out of interest, as you said you have been playing EVE you several years you wouldn't happen to be in the coalition that just concered some of the regions with most of the Cobalt in game would you.
Nothing personal but we're all human and in general humans are the least honest species on the plannet. In the past the big alliances that are friendly with devs, or have devs in them seem to have had crystal balls and been able to gain from updates that the masses (who by the way pay for the game) are not privy to. |

With a 20:1 ratio if every single Cobalt moon in the game was turned to Alchemy then there would only be a 50% increase in supply. In reallity this will not happen, all this change will do is bring the Tech price down by 20-25%. It does nothing to stop the CFC sitting on their big fat arses and just counting in the isk. |

One totaly unrelated game mechanic that could also break the Tech monopoly would be to make standings based on player actions, not just a click of a button. Too much of the game is blue to each other. Indiscretions done to an Alliance should not be so easily forgotten.
To stop this from being exploited by Awoxres this would need personal, corp and Alliance standings exactly like is done with NPC agents/Corps/Factions. If your personal standings towards an alliance you are in drop to a certain point, you get a warning, if they drop lower you loose all roles, if they drop bellow a set threshold you get a 24 hour warning that you are being automaticaly kicked from your corporation.
END this mass of iveryone being blue. blob warefare needs to be attacked from every direction. |

No you can be blue with anyone, just not shoot them in the morning and be their best friend in the afternoon
