Hey folks. I need to know something so I hope you can help my out. I need to know how much it takes to make a small carrier. I mean BPO's, capital ship components, fighters, etc. This would be really helpful. Thanks.

It's easy:
Log into EVE
open market, goto blueprints, look for the carrier BP of your choice, if it's not there, uncheck the show availible button.
click on the BP, and view the building costs.
Then if you need more detail, check the building costs for the various captial ship parts.
Overall, the cost is artound 700-800mil for the raw minerals, excluding costs of BPs for the parts/ship itself, going by a post from a few months back.
Also, I can't wait to see some carriers/MS/titans built and lost. Titans are going to be the ultimate mineral sink.

Price range I've seen so far shows them from 1.2-1.7bn.

It's going to be very hard to loose a carrier / mothership / titan as they are 100% immune to all kinds of EW. The first person to loose one is going to be the worst pilot ever.

I thought carriers where not 100% immune to EW. Only the real big ships are.

As above 700-800m to build but sell for between 1.2-1.7bn.
my god man, i barely managed not to flame you out of here.
freighters - 1 - 1.5bill avg
you think the the mighty carriers are gonna go for 1.7bill???
*dies laughin*
think you may have missed a 0 there, the small ones might fetch a couple of bill at least, the large ones are gonna be in the 10's of bills easy.

Yeah i know, and im talking about the carriers, the large ones should go for more than 10bill, someone please correct me if im wrong, but why would a strategical combat vessel cost the same as a logistics industry vessel?

Bacause as an owner of a charon and the 181 capital ship parts this one required for me to build it(i also own the BPO),it comes out quite a bit more expensive than a small carrier,wich on average only need about 120 parts to build...

While this is true, it requires a much larger variety of parts to build. Instead of 4 different parts like a freighter, it requires 12 different parts. Overall the mineral requirement to build a carrier is less, but given the scarcity of some of those component BPs, specifically in BPC form, you more or less HAVE to buy at least a few of the BPOs. At 1 to 1.5 bil each....well you gotta make that back somehow. Much higher initial investment on the average than a freighter.

They actually are pretty cheap to build, considering what they are.

Even then,the price difference on the sheer amount extra parts needed for the freighter makes up for the higher average cost of the parts needed for a small carrier,diversity or not...
hasn't stopped dreads being sold at nearly mineral cost(2 billion) when they could still be built in empire previously,and those essentially need the same variety of components that carriers do,only quite a bit more of them to boot...

Well the BPO for a carrier is about 900mill. The carrier skill to use it is about 450mill. The components need to build it are less than half of that of a dreadnaught. So i'm hoping it will be quite cheap compared to building a dreadnaught.

I was quoted 1.115bn for my Thanatos, and accepted.
I'm waiting for production to complete.

The large carriers are the motherships. Small Carriers probably will be around freighter costs.

Would just like to mention their isnt a LARGE carrier, their is a carrier and a mothership, the large carrier you refer to is a mothership.
