Harvesting gas clouds is pretty simple, basically just like mining. The problem lies in finding them. With the spiffy new multispectral frequency probe we're seeing some increase in use of the exploration system which is a good thing.
The drop rate of both the harvesters and the skill needed for the harvester is a bit low. The skill is understandable, once gained its not going away so it never goes out of the game. The harvester module could do with a bit of an increase in drop rate. Well both skills and modules could but they are out there as well as the clouds themselves. _______________ |

thx for the reply tux ;p still though think u could clarify a few things :S
Where do u get the skill and harvesters? I understand that they're supposed to be rare then just crap you can buy on the market, but do you get them from 0.0 cosmos agents?.
How do u produce them once you've harvested the gas? You put the gas and the trade good needed into the reactor, or do you put them in the biochemical silo first and it auto shoves it into the reactor? Do you need a "bpo" to make the reaction as some people have been saying?
After you have the reaction what do you do with it? I figure you put it in the drug lab and it makes it into the real drug, but is there anything else needed other then the reaction? Again, is there a bpo for it? :o
Thanks Guys for all your replies and its awesome to know that some people have already started, good stuff!
This post wasn't meant as a whine though :S I wasn't saying its to hard to make, or that no one has done it already. I want to know the specifics of HOW to make them so maybe I could do so myself :D

A Guide To Booster Manufacturing Boosters are made through processing chemicals extracted from special gas clouds which can be found in certain deadspace areas in many regions. Some constellations however are rumored to have massive clouds of a scale not seen anywhere else, for example E-8CSQ, 09-4XV, 9HXQ-G, OK-FEM, Pegasus, Assilot, I-3ODK and 760-9C. Finding these clouds requires the ability to conduct long range scanning, for example via scan probes. Finding them however is not always an easy task, it sometimes requires quite a bit of exploration before one is found. The downside of searching for these clouds is the fact they are mostly located in dangerous pirate infested space. Few if any of these clouds exist in civilized space, having been depleted long ago by the human mega-corporations. Hence searching for them can be quite risky and not recommended except for an experienced combat pilot. To extract the chemicals from the gas clouds, you need a gas cloud harvester module. You also need to find the correct type of gas cloud. Not all clouds have chemicals that the gas cloud harvester can extract, and therefore you might have to go through some trial and error to begin with before you get the hang of gas cloud harvesting. Today most boosters are very much illegal in civilized space, due to the horrible side effects experienced by users during the Great Booster Craze many decades ago. Therefore manufacturing them must be done in lawless space, outside the sphere of power of the major civilized factions. Also anyone caught smuggling illegal boosters into civilized space can face very steep penalties. Manufacturing boosters is set into a few phases. Phase 1 is extracting the material from the gas cloud. Phase 2 is using a starbase with the appropriate structure to process the chemicals and create reactions. Phase 3 is using a station that allows booster manufacturing, stations known as Outposts would work, to process the reaction and create the booster. This will result in the creation of a fairly common booster. With additional work, and the right blueprint and combination of low quality boosters, one can create higher quality versions in the Outpost or starbase laboratory.
still pretty basic though ;p ------------------------------------------------ NEWLY ADDED ON 1/19 (though applies to all posts before ;p)

Actually Phase 3 is a bit "changed", as I haven't seen them beeing able to get manufactured on Outposts (haven't checked the Amarr one yet though) and only the Drug Lab POS module has it under it's list for beeing able to manufacture them. _______

so apparently you do need bps :S and its only possible to get bpcs, why not bpos tux :/ should be able to buy em off the serps or something right :(? whoring complexes to get bpcs for drugs isn't exactly fun ;p and more monies to be made doing a 10/10 just once :/ ------------------------------------------------ NEWLY ADDED ON 1/19 (though applies to all posts before ;p)

I know, no hard feelings 
You quoted the part that one of the 0.0 COSMOS agents gives you when you ask him for a mission after the mission "briefing" (just saying this for the people that haven't talked to those agents due to beeing less favored by the NPCs) _______

I haven't checked any other 0.0 COSMOS than the Serpentis one in Fountain tbh. There was 1 agent per "exiting" gate (from the constellation), all giving exactly the same mission (You give me gas, I give you some Boosters).
So, if you don't have 0.0 access, it's tough  _______

More questions on clouds...
1) Are they "used up" like ore? Does the act of mining them deplete them?
2) How much gas is in a typical cloud?
3) Are there different types of gasses within the same cloud? (like belts)
4) Do they respawn in the same place?
--------
This is one area that really intrigues me, ive done just about every mfg/production type process in EVE since 2003, but this is all very new, and id like to try it. I may have the opportunity soon if current corp plans go in the direction they seem to be going, which hopefully will lead me "out there" ...

Got this from an agent in 0.0 cosmos a while back, hope it sheds some light

1) Yes and Yes. 2) It seems fairly random, the anser would be never nough though  3) Nope, only one type of cloud per region and only 8ish regions have clouds in the first place. 4) Nope. 4) Do they respawn in the same place? -----

Sounds pretty rough. Do you think there's enough clouds out there to make boosters viable for those who don't have direct access (like yourself ) anytime soon?
(I do know that you're selling boosters; but still, all types aren't available and they are quite expensive)

Originally by: ToxicFire Seeing as most of the gas stuff including the mining tools are DROP ONLY don't expect it to be a common thing outside of a major alliance
where does it drop :o
Serpentis maybe?
If anyone would drop stuff that's booster-related, it'd be them.
i would figure that to be fair that all types would drop them :S specially since gas clouds are supposed to be everywhere not just serpentis space ;p
Word. Question is if the new territories will have any loot dropping at all, however interesting it would make those regions.
