Originally by: CCP Chronotis No need to apologise, its our job :)
The ability of invention to supply the market has been trialled over past year and in kali 3 we really will see how inventors cope. With such high overhead required, it is understandable you want assurances that things are working as intended and so do we, with placing such emphasis on invention as the sole supplier of major new content in the next patch.
Well i am sure the inventors of EVE are ready for the challenge. You ahve allready done this with succes actually for several T2 modules, so the risk really aint that high.
Just dont go shoot us in the back as you did with T2 Rig invention. We where told that that market would be invention only, yet the gave faily easy access to 2-run ME 0 prints thoughout EVE. This effectively killed T2 rig invention, as the added material cost of building even the best possible inveted bpc with ME -4, made it impossible to make a profit.
So do not let ANYTHING drop bpc's of these new ships. Do not let agents hand them out in the loyalty store either. Invention ONLY, please.

Originally by: Dangermouse DM What I don't like is the claim invention hasn't been adjusted and they would tell us if they made a change. Well they did when they changed the negative ME formula and increased our prices by 20% I have never seen that addressed.
That was an obvious bug. (The pre fix version.) I had pointed out that the formula for ME would indicate that it was off. And it was mentioned in the patch notes, though under a somewhat cryptic description.

No offense, but can you quote that part ? I'm having trouble finding it in the patch notes even if I know what to look for.
Sure
Revelations II, Patch 33752:
"Blueprints with an ME of -1 will no longer have 0% wastage. They now have the correct 20% waste"

Originally by: Pizi why do the invention bpc need a -4 to -8 ME ? theres no other reason as to protect the T2 bpo owners but invention allready has such an big overhead compared to an original T2
Indeed. Why?
Historical reasons. AS with many other things in EVE it only makes sense seen in historical perspective. Unless CCP add ways to research BPC's the negative ME will only be a historical curiosity as the base for invented bpc could as well be 0 or positive when no investment heavy BPO counterparts exist.
