Invention results are not what you think, - this is not a whine - it's a statement Invention results tend towards the projected amounts with variance I've had 1x11/11 success 1x 10/10 Success 2 x 9/9 fail 1x 10/10 fail
I have 3 character I use for invention one with with a base rate for 40% and using no decryptors 5/5/5 one 5/5/4 and one 4/4/4
- Char expect| Total | Since last patch
- 4/4/4 48.26 | 49.70 | 36.36
- 4/5/5 49.56 | 49.78 | 48.44
- 5/5/5 50.40 | 47.95 | 52.83
- Char expect| Total | Since last patch
- 4/4/4 48.26 | 49.47 | 35.38
- 4/5/5 49.56 | 49.71 | 47.95
- 5/5/5 50.40 | 48.44 | 52.05

How big are your sample sizes? unless it's over 9000, a statistical analysis isn't all that usefull.

I've watched my invention results the last months with concern.
Mostly I get 3 to 4 Buzzards out of 10 runs, sometimes less. There were better times. Skills are 5/5/5. No use of decryptors. Are there other ways to get better results? Is there an implant? |

since last patch size is small - 172 , total is >3000 [I've got to re-organise my spreadsheet a bit now so exact figures are meh] http://eveboard.com/ub/419190933-134.png

I don't have any hard figures(don't keep track of how many BPCs I get per run) but I have the same feeling.
I invent modules with 3/3/3 skills, so the chance is 46.14%. That's 4-5 BPCs out of a 9 job run. Since the last patch my amount of BPCs has consistently been below average (never above than 5, but pretty often below 4) so I do feel the chance has decreased. |

Confirming the new forums are nerfing invention rates (and officer spawns and faction loot drops). |

9000 is overkill
1000 is sufficent |

Urban Dictionary wrote:7. over 9000
Over 9000 is a term used to express a great amount of skill, strength, speed, etc. The term originated from the anime show Dragonball Z when Nappa asks Vegeta what his scouter ( a device used in Dragonball to measure the power level, or battle strength, of someone) said about Goku's power level. Vegeta's scouter was designed to pick up a power level up to 9000 whereas Goku's power level was "over 9000" which was what he told Nappa.
*Goku shows up* Nappa: Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his power level? Vegeta: It's over 9000!!!!! *Vegeta removes and crushes scouter* Nappa: What, 9000?! There's no way that can be right! |

I haven't done invention in a couple of months but I did do it for about 2 years. After every patch I always used to pay more attention the my results to see if there had been any changes and if I was getting worse results. Ever time I got low results I would be like "they changed something and its screwing me over" and then I would forget about the good results. Then I would look back over the results before the patch and only see the good results and compare them to my failures after the patch. It wasn't until I averaged over the year to see that my results were always within 1% of the predicted result.
Honestly, I think its because we expect to see a deviation from the norm we forget that it is random chance and that you can just be very unlucky for awhile and get bad results. I remember after one patch was was getting around 10% above the predicted on average for about 2 weeks...I was well stoked!
On a separate note; I'm sure its me imagining it but it appeared to me that my guys with worse skills always did better than my maxed out guy. Though I could never be bothered to actually test that theory. |

^ which is one reason I've made this thread as we always seem to get patch screwed my invention threads...
I am running fairly good results [I'm happy] however the character with 5/5/5 skills does seem to have less than predicted results than with of the other 2 , now that character has less total inventions on the modules measured by this test [by quite a lot] so is within error [he gets to invent other stuff not covered by this test].

I did actually stop training my other invention chars to have all 5/5/5 skills as I was convinced that it actually had a negative affect on the outcome of inventions.
I do remember inventing with one char that had 2/2/2 skills for awhile (I thought it had better skills and just didn't check) and I consistently came out with above average results for about a week.
The other thing I noticed (I cant back this up with facts and numbers however) about invention was that I always had one or 2 modules that ended up with less successes than others and a couple which always had more successes. |
