Lluthiunne Atalaron	Posted - 2006.05.30 19:30:00 - [1] Edited by: Lluthiunne Atalaron on 30/05/2006 19:32:58 Edited by: Lluthiunne Atalaron on 30/05/2006 19:31:18 Okay I recieved a BPO from my agent today. However now I dont know what to research for. Is there some resource within the forums ?!? that will show me what BPO's have been given out already and which fields still have nice shiny BPO's available? I know that tons of people put there agents working in the hope of a ship BPO. So i figure those are took but what of the other fields? >> The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell and a hell of heaven <<
Brain Day	Posted - 2006.05.30 19:31:00 - [2] Give it to me
Bhaal	Posted - 2006.05.30 19:32:00 - [3] Give it to me, that's what all T2 BPO winners are doing these days... Mainly because I'm cool 'n stuff... ------------------------------------------------ Current Hobby other than EVE My Hero
Tachy	Posted - 2006.05.30 19:33:00 - [4] Read the 'Manufacturing And Research Guide' of the player guide to the left carefully and follow it step by step. Oh wait. That hasn't been updated in the past 7 months, so you better visit evegathering.com for a very good guide on manufacturing. --==*-- Megadon CCP wanted a well known artist and celebrity to test the new font so it's approval would be well known.

Swethren	Posted - 2006.05.30 19:42:00 - [5] Apprently ppl can't be helpful anymore. You are looking for the part of the BPO that looks like this, it tells you what skills you need there. Once you have all those skills you can start producing the item. While you are training the skills, I suggest ME or PE researching the BPO. Swethren
Lluthiunne Atalaron	Posted - 2006.05.30 19:45:00 - [6] lol, Thanks i didnt know about the skills, thats something i have to worry about now - im on route to pick up this BPO now. However i would like to know if theres any info on what BPO's have been released so i know not to put my next aganet into a dead field ??? Does that make sense! Anyway thanks for that info >> The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell and a hell of heaven <<
Donna Divine	Posted - 2006.05.30 19:52:00 - [7] TheyT probably about evenly released, so asking yourself which field is least likely to have competition yet still has wortwhile stuff in its queue is more usefull I'd say. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gilded Goose Brokerages Trading to order.

However i would like to know if theres any info on what BPO's have been released so i know not to put my next aganet into a dead field ??? Does that make sense! Anyway thanks for that info The short answer, NO, the long, there was a dev post about whats been released and what hasn't. A quick tip. Please, please, please, please do not pick up that BPO in a shuttle. You want something big, like a BattleCruiser or Battleship. If you have to pick it up in something small, take a Atron (or something simalary small), stick a mwd on it and some nanofibre's. Don't afk autopilot back with the BPO or someone WILL suicide gank you for you BPO. Travel safe. Swethren

Anyway thanks for that info Agh please, stop, dont touch it lol. The minute you posted that several pirates no doubt started a agent search on you and are now following behind you. Dont move that thing in anything less then a fully tanked bs with instas all the way. And not tonight after that post.
Lluthiunne Atalaron	Posted - 2006.05.30 20:06:00 - [11] lol thanks for the tips - but i am not one of the terminally dim! You wont see me cry on the forums any time soon cos i accidentally left it in a can at some belt where i was mining lol. Ill search for the dev post - i guess i just have to pick a field and pray again! Thanks for the info folks. >> The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell and a hell of heaven <<

Danton Marcellus	Posted - 2006.05.30 20:55:00 - [13] Each field has what is listed with the agent as predicable print, as soon as they run dry the field info gets altered to 'nothing easily predicable'. Remind me about The Maze. I'm Danton Marcellus and I approve of this message.

Makhan	Posted - 2006.05.30 21:44:00 - [15] If you don't know what to do with it, you have no right to even be in the lottery.
Triscuit	Posted - 2006.05.30 21:45:00 - [16] Originally by: Makhan If you don't know what to do with it, you have no right to even be in the lottery. Hahaha, oh shut up. Bitterness levels off the chart.

I know exactly what to do with a BPO ya plum. All ive asked for is where i can find info on the availability of other BPO's. Now take your trolling somewhere else! P.S. thanks alot Danton checking it now! >> The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell and a hell of heaven <<
Aeina Caeraen	Posted - 2006.05.30 23:16:00 - [19] Edited by: Aeina Caeraen on 30/05/2006 23:17:39 There is an easy way to find fields that are still dropping T2 BPOs. Neocom -> People and Places -> Search Enter in a corporation with a RnD division (Lai Dai, Roden Shipyards, etc.) Get Info on the respective corporations, and open up their agent lists in the RnD Departments. Get Info on the individual Agents. Each will have several fields "Plasma Physics, Gallente Starship Engineering, etc." Under each of these, there will be a "predictable patents" or something similar, which indicates that said T2 BPO is still dropping. Unfortunately, I know of no way to find out how many of each BPO are still in the lottery pool, so you might enter a field, only to have your desired BPO completely seeded the next day. Edit: I'm too slow :/
Kalixa Hihro	Posted - 2006.05.30 23:25:00 - [20] Originally by: Jin Jemai $5 says he moves it in a shuttle and gets ganked I'll wager 10 he uses battleship and still gets ganked.
Phrixus Zephyr	Posted - 2006.05.30 23:47:00 - [21] 100/1 outsider he trades it to an alt and 15 people follow him around for a week fr nothing. Any takers? btw... care to tell us what BPO it was.. for curiosities sake.. Originally by: Jude Kopenhagen I heard a little bird tell me that the new Battle Ship will be called "The sky is falling, I'm gonna have to learn more skills, oh woe are us!"
Deja Thoris	Posted - 2006.05.30 23:55:00 - [22] Originally by: Makhan If you don't know what to do with it, you have no right to even be in the lottery. If you can't read you have no right to be posting on the boards should apply to you then
Messerschmitt facility	Posted - 2006.05.30 23:57:00 - [23] Yea tell us what BPO it is so you will be tracked down and hunt by 50% of the galaxy in suicide ships if it's a good one _________________________________ A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking...
Aeina Caeraen	Posted - 2006.05.30 23:59:00 - [24] 15 ISK says that: 1)The BPO is valuable... say, a Hulk BPO, or a Command Battlecruiser BPO. 2)A Tanked Battleship or a Tanked Transport is used to move it. 3)Pirates find him. 4)Pirates use excessive force and -still- pop him. 5)only to discover that only a 1-run BPC was actually moved. :P
Cerberal	Posted - 2006.05.31 01:16:00 - [25] If your interested in selling the t2 BPO, get in contact with my corp, we're interested in a few in particular. Or just drop me an evemail telling what bpo and initial price wanted for it.
Lluthiunne Atalaron	Posted - 2006.05.31 01:50:00 - [26] lol, thanks for all the info guys. I knew that if BPO was mentioned id get a quick response but not as many as i did! Thanks alot. As for offers, there appreciated but we have plans for it. I picked it up and returned it to its new cozy home with absolutely no problems. Although a few low security players i met on route made me hold my breathe. I will shed one piece of info and that is that i got the offer after only 11,000 rp. Cue hate mail. >> The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell and a hell of heaven <<
TheNecromancer	Posted - 2006.05.31 05:18:00 - [27] sell it to BOB and get rich...they seem to have endless resources anyway My shop url Online shop
LexaKosh	Posted - 2006.05.31 09:51:00 - [28] Get a hauler with a tractor, warp to a friendly POS and just wait how many loot cans you can pick after location agents and scanners probes worked their magic revealing your position

spurious signal	Posted - 2006.05.31 10:20:00 - [30] Edited by: spurious signal on 31/05/2006 10:20:05 To actually reply to your original post, no, there's no way that you can simply find out what BPOs have been handed out recently. You can do a few things though. You can watch the buy/sell forums and see what BPOs seem to be in the greatest demand. You can monitor the market in multiple regions (espcially hub areas like Jita) and see what T2 modules are hard to come by and which ones have their prices dropping over time. You can also consider the relative attractiveness of different potential BPOs from different research areas. For example, it's a safe bet that there will be a LOT of people conducting research into Caldari Starship Engineering so your chances of getting a (for example) Cerberus BPO will be MUCH lower than your chances of getting a T2 ammo BPO of some kind by researching Electromagnetic Physics maybe. As in all of EVE there's a strong risk:reward correlation - the greater the risk of getting nothing the higher the potential rewards
