Uh 400 strontium clathrates for 1 build cycle that gives 40 blocks? So far this was only used for reinforcements.. so you filled the starbase up once and haven't needed it for a long time. The ice barely gives any strontium.. so 400 per batch is way too high imho. Just thinking about how my ice product storage looks right at this moment.. i have tons of isotopes.. i have tons of heavy water and liquid ozone.. but i barely have any strontium.
Stornium is only a minor component in most ice types, often giving you 1 single strontium if you refine a block of ice. In my opinion, needing 400 of them per 1 batch, giving you 40 blocks is a bit over the top. |

IIRC it has already been stated that all citadels defenses must be manned (unlike current POS defenses). Assuming that manning citadel weapons is restricted to corp members, this is a solid change in favor of local ownership of assets (instead of far-away holding corps or rental masters).
Hope CCP sticks to their guns on this one (pun intended). |

As far as I know it's already explained in EVE vegas that there will be different groups within citadel management hierarchy. So owner can make group of defenders - and they can be anyone |

If I fit the market, clone and office modules to my Citadel, I understand that there will be NPC taxes involved in their operation according to the Dev Blog. My question is will the corp that launches the Citadel be able to reap some of the tax money, office fees, brokers fees etc of the different types of transactions that occur at its Citadel?
Thanks! Lineothel We're planning on replacing some of the NPC taxes with player taxes when they're from Citadel services. For example, the Market NPC broker fees would be replaced by player broker fees that would be paid to the structure owner. That also means we're probably going to increase market NPC taxes to make Citadel more attractive at some point.
By how much ?

Thanks for the answers, CCP. Do you have any for my questions?
If the medium citadel is intended to replace a POS, does it share one attribute with a POS: The ability to unanchor, repackage, and remove it from space in just a few hours?
How long does it take to scoop a citadel? Is it different for different sizes?
What happens to the rigs?
What happens to the stored stuff?
I'm thinking about a mobile market that follows incursions around, among other things.

CCP Nullarbor wrote:TheSmokingHertog wrote:And a question that I asked before, will Crest have market endpoints for Citadels and are they public?
And can you make a market in a citadel access to only bleus? Market orders won't appear in CREST because the visibility of orders depends on which character is looking (access groups make this complicated). We *might* add public player markets to the public crest data, that's a big might though since we have a lot of other stuff to do at the moment.
I understand you that this may not appear right away, but Crest integration will become 100% required.
If you want player citadels to take over NPC stations, you need to make sure CREST integrates in some way. Blues should be able to pull data from the Citadels they can see, but most importantly, if someone sets up a public trade post CREST integration is almost a necessity.
People who NEED this in order to make you grand plan of player owned Citadel Markets a reality:
- Sellers - How many large scale traders use some sort of tool that relies on prices and market order API info to keep track of hundreds to thousands of orders? I would guess all of them. Even random players in null will use Eve-Central to quickly price check items in high sec, etc. If you move the market from an NPC station to a Citadel and that sort of information is not available, sellers will not be happy.
- Asset safety - Sellers will not want to put their stuff in a citadel that can get blown up. Why? Because they will not want to pay to have it safely returned. It would be worth the loss of a few percentage points of profit to sell in an NPC station that can never be removed.
- Buyers - How many people use eve-central or eve-praisal to see how much their stuff is worth? I would guess more than 75% of the player base. Same issue as above, if the information is not available your plan will not work.
- Industrialist - They need the API information on markets to judge what they are making. Repeat reasons from above.
What will happen if CREST integration is not available:
Sellers will not move from the NPC stations because they do not want to manually manage their orders. Even if you raise the taxes at the NPC stations, most large scale traders will not move. It would not be worth the extra work required for a few extra %.
Buyers will not move because the sellers do not move. If I look up a price in eve central, I am not going to check the market every jump/region to find a lower price in a citadel that I cannot see on the web.
Central market Hub Theory (Jita) - This will not break Jita, Amarr, etc. as the central places to do business. There is a reason that the last time you guys tried to break up the central hub by changing some of the stargates, it moved to Jita. There MUST be a central market or group of hubs that acts like it.
Prices will rise by whatever percentage you increase the NPC taxes. This is because the main hubs will still be in NPC stations and people who do sell in Citadels will still sell at those prices because every price in Eve is somehow connected to "Jita" price. |

So, I noticed that the service modules are the item that now incurs the fuel block usage, and also whether it's active or not, it still incurs this usage. So.. When the later structures release such as drilling platform, ship assembly platform, etc, what's stopping me from sticking up any size I want in HS, using an NPC station for cloning, and sticking up these other structures to do my jobs, causing the citadel to not cost me beans in fuel once it's up? This sounds a bit broken to me. I think to get better usage out of the service modules, they should incur the cost of fuel when they are in use. So, a certain fuel startup cost (i.e. like 100 blocks or something) and then use the 5 or 10 per hour afterwards.
Also, if a service module runs out of fuel and there was enough fuel to power the other modules, what happens to that service? or to the citadel for that matter? What goes offline?
Additionally, I'm not sure if anyone else is worried, but allowing the keepstar in HS is just about stupid. NO ONE will ever take these things down unless they are offline in space. Because I'm assuming you need a wardec, and there's not that many HS corps out there that can supply 75 1000dps ships to cap out the dps max to reinforce that sucker. Or if it's offline, it'll take over an hour to pop it. AND from the previous devblogs, all you get is a km! The drop can only be picked up by the owners. That seems like a large risk in resources for practically NO gain.
I figure that most HS corps would be able to bring about 15-30 ships that may or may not have 1000dps. Which means, it's going to take them at least a hour to reinforce or 3 hours to destroy if offline. Keepstars will become like large towers in HS: the moon's useless, it's going to take 5 hours+ to take it down, we're going to have to wardec a corp... why bother? |

I think your first point is a little confused - but essentially correct. Provided you don't use any fuel-using service modules in your citadel (you just live in it) - then it will cost no fuel.
However, whilst I disagree, if the XL Citadels do become considered 'invulnerable' because no one will bother to take them down - this will actually result in a proliferation of them in HS!
I actually think that the first few will indeed get destroyed............................

All citadels drop a % of their build materials as loot.
Whatever % that is, a % of 70-100B is definitely worth the time to wardec and take it down. I imagine there are corps like Marmites, CODE, etc. that are doing the calculations to figure out how fast an XL can kill a suicide destroyer vs. how many you would lose vs. the time to blow it up. If that ISK loss is less than the % of the 70-100B, they will do it just for the grins and profit. |

What about moving these things:
There are several instances in the game where POS's need to be moved a lot, and with the incredible expense of the more secure citadels, this seems like a very important consideration.
Will they need to be repackaged? will modules need to be removed and replaced. Will the Rigs be destroyed? Will any assets inside move with it and be available after the move is complete? |

What are the plans about fast ship switching at a citadel?
Situation now on a Ship Maintenace Array: Warp to the SMA (location) > board new ship (previous one gets stored automatically > warp back into fight
Station: Warp to the station > dock up > switch ship > undock > warp back into fight (takes much longer as you mostly need to stop and realign before)
You understand the big advantage of SMAs over stations for inhabitants of the solar system?
How will it be on Citadels? |

Currently, to build 175k blocks, i'll use roughly 350 Compressed Dark Glitter and 350 Compressed Glare Crust (plus, you know, Isotopes and PI stuff). To generate the stront needed for the same number of fuel blocks, i'll need 12,500 units of Krystallos (the most stront rich ice in eve). To put that in perspective, that's 15.6 TIMES the combined Dark Glitter and Glare Crust requirements, and i'm still missing heavy water.
Adding stront to a block is the worst idea, but the numbers are so far from being OK logistically, that it's ridiculous. How about 0.25 Stront a block. This will require 10 stront a load, and, while still require an adjustment in the ice purchased, brings the total logistical level from "Completely Unreasonable" to "Actually Practical" Don't soil your panties, you guys made a good point, we'll look at the numbers again.
I assume the logs show everything. Maybe just look at how much stront gets eaten up by towers a month vs how much fuel blocks get eaten up and find a nice even stront/block number to keep the demand relatively the same!
Obviously it wouldnt be perfect because who the hell knows what the difference in fuel blocks consuption will be post citadel, but its a start :P |

You seem pretty upset about the fuel thing, but you know the amazing thing about "stations", they have hangars where you can store things and hopefully in the future we will have Courier Contracts for a citadel. So instead of the POS dynamic where we need to schlup blocks out to a tower every 38 days in a fancy ship like a JF or Rorqual, you could do all that hauling at once for many months, then later on dock up in a interceptor and move blocks from column A to B. Use a corp hangar, let your friends do it.

Crazy, isn't it? It's almost as if, unlike every other MMO out there, Eve actually has a player run economy that relies on continual consumption of goods to drive demand.

The problem with using stront isn't so much the amount, its the availability and transportability of it. At 3m^3 per stront a single run of fuel would 1200m^3; and thats just the stront, and doesnt take into acount the other matterials. Then the fact that stront is only found in ice, and of the ice only nullsec ice has more than 1 per block.
Its like mining for noxcium and only having access to pyroxeres in 90% of space.
The maximum mining speed of ice is ~3/min per hulk with maxed orca; assuming that you are not gonna force all the miners in eve into nullsec. this is the cap of highsec mining. At 3 stront per hulk, per min. it would take a single miner two hours to mine the stront needed to make a single run of 40 blocks.
No one complains about the super high numbers of minerals it takes to make captials because trit is everywhere, you can find it in literally any system with a belt. Ice is more restrictive in its access, and krystalos is even more difficult to have in large ammounts.
My suggestion would be to increase the stront content of all ice by at least 50, and reduce the stront size down to 1m^3 per unit, allowing its transportation at the volumes needed to make it worth while to try and export. |

You do know that you will be able to get rid of 80% of those POS currently in existence right? Because any POS holding a moon simply to deny it to any invaders for their own POS will now be useless. You will now only have to fuel POS that are performing actual roles such as moon mining, (and that is assuming CCP don't do the smart thing and make moon mining an active player task) So a few replacement Citadels for Outposts which have infinite fuel bays so you can just top them up whenever convenient rather than having to have a strict schedule are not going to be an issue. |

When you are looking at the numbers, consider this:
If you adjust stront prior to POS being removed from the game, then you're creating additional supply for the huge demand that would be consumed by POS. When citadels are released, you'll have a double dipping of fuel block consumption in both POS and Citadels. When POS are eventually removed from the game, you'll see the demand of fuel blocks plummet unless you implement a scaling fuel consumption based on how many reactions goes on within a citadel. If a scaling fuel consumption is not utilized for reactions, then you'll run into a gigantic surplus of stront (much like there is today).
There are several ways to handle this:
- Leave stront as-is, perhaps only reducing the m3 to make it less of a pain to move, and not alter the supply. Add stront to the fuel block recipe once POS are removed from the game.
- Reduce the m3 of stront a considerable amount and increase the supply from existing ice. Perhaps the volume (m3) of stront refined from ice would remain the same, but more units would be derived from that volume. Immediately change the fuel block recipe to include stront.
- Do not alter stront at all, perhaps not even adjusting the m3, and make it a supplementary requirement for certain citadel functions.
Even if you do simply reduce the amount of stront per block run, you'll still run into a major change in consumption once POS are removed. That is, unless you do indeed implement a scaling consumption for reactions post POS.
In all of these situations, highsec will be completely reliant on null ice unless additional changes are made to highsec belt comps. |

Alright, update regarding the stront numbers:
- We're going to decrease required stront numbers from 400 to 200 for a batch of 40 fuel blocks.
- Stront volume is being decreased from 3 to 2m3.
- Stront consumption of triage and siege modules will increase by 50% to compensate. This puts consumption at 375m3 for Siege Modules and 375 / 300 for Triage I / II
- Entosis Links are not affected.

Edit: also renaming fuel blocks from racial fuel block to isotope fuel block, should reduce confusion since the new structures don't have different racial themes.
- Helium Fuel Block, Nitrogen Fuel Block, Oxygen Fuel Block, Hydrogen Fuel Block
This should help allay my previous concerns quite a bit. Thanks!
