As you guys surely know, having people in game and in space is great and we want to start promoting and rewarding activity a little more directly. The version of the feature we are planning to deploy first will be a simple 10,000 skill point reward that a character will receive the first time they kill an NPC ship every 22 hours. The skillpoints will go into your unallocated pool to be used however you like.
CCP Rise for Team Size Matters
Ok, before discussing whether or not these kinds of rewards is a good thing, can we get some clarification? The third one is key I think.
- Is this per character or per account?
- If a character that does not have an active skill training kills an NPC, do they skill get skill points?
- Does this mean they have to get the final blow or is it like the bounty system where everyone gets a split of the points/bounty. (I know there are rules on this and I think it is the split is just between fleet members but not sure).
Now lets do the math.
Assumption for easy math is 2,000 skill points trained per hour by the character. Thus, each day, a player can get 2,000 * 24 + 10,000 sp for a total of 58,000. This effectively leads to a 17% increase in sp gained.
This will shave off about 5 days of training a month. Not to overpowered, but still odd.
However, it becomes a little more interesting when you allow for all characters to get it even if they cannot train a skill.
Overall, I am not sure how I feel about it. I think my response will depend on the answer to the third question above.

* Killing NPCs
* Mining
* PVP
* Exploration / Scanning
* Interacting with the market or structures
Agree with all except interact with the market.
Scenerio:
Someone puts up a bunch of useless items on the market for 100 isk and has alts buy them.
Structures could work but would be hard to classify what counts. |
