I just have a quick question about Hulk invention using a Symbiotic Figures datafile.
On average, how many attempts is it taking to get a success?
I've had 14 failures in a row so far and I'm just trying to get an idea how many more datacores and datafiles that I need to purchase.
I have level 4 skills.
Thanks in advance for responding.

There always has to be at least one idiot that has to say something totally stupid that has nothing to do with the current post.
Go find somewhere else to troll noob.

Thanks for all the responses.
It gives me a better feel on how many tries it is taking others to get a bpc. I put in 5 more tries yesterday so I'll see how those turn out in a couple hours.

I'll have to agree on the high profit part of that statement. It doesn't seem to be high risk yet.
So far the only risk is whether your profit is high or medium.
I definately could have made the same return or better through other investments, but this is something different to try. Besides, I need a few more Hulks for my personal use and this is still cheaper than buying them from someone else.

I agree to Trinity, its high risk high profit. Though some people will tell you if you have the isk there are safer ways to earn similar profits.
The daily isk turnaround if you want to get more or less steady results(by dealing in large numbers) is staggering.
My chance of success with 4/4/4 is around 10+-3%, derived from a sample of 120+ tries.
Largest number of consecutive failures was 24.

Good point. If someone threw every isk they had into this then getting 20 fails in a row would be a little scary.
17 failures in a row for me now. More finishing later today so I'll keep my fingers crossed on those.
Originally by: Meau
If you have the isk to keep it running for some time yes ;). Isk breed isk.
But imagine some player with less than a few billion isk to start with, buying the interface for 600M, starting invention and getting more than 20 fails in a row.
Could hurt.
And there are currently lots of ways to lose or risk money doing hulk invention, depending on type of bpc and decryptor you use, among other things.
(but i agree, if you are doing it right(and figuring it out isnt exactly rocket science) and you had the cash to start with, profits are high and risk is low, or i wouldnt have done 120+ runs so far, would i? ^^)

I haven't been adding Covetors. Doesn't seem to be worth it to me.
Originally by: Heavan
Are all of those attempts with the use of Datacores and Symbiotic figures ? Are Covetors thrown into the guzzler to account for the 12% success rate ?
Just curiois what went into the attempt ..

Only 7 attempts to get another bpc. That's more like it!
