Just wondered if anyone else is getting a much reduced success ratio on invention jobs post patch??
With maxxed out skills I used to get an average 60% success ratio but recently i am lucky to be getting 20% and in fact out of the last 16 jobs have only got a 2 run EOS BPC. Not sure if CCP have changed anything I haven't seen or read about but given the massively increased cost of decryptors (despite more and more people doing exploration ergo more being available) it's fast becoming a time sink with the rewards being hardly worth it.

Someone posts this every patch. Nothing has changed. The devs have said they will tell us when something has changed. Please read up on probability.

Welcome to the wonders of the EVE RNG. I believe there's a pretty lengthy thread floating around somewhere about how streaky it is... and inventors are the ones who see it most readily.

And as always it's nice to have someone point out the absolute obvious.... but let me point out the fact that it was a simple question not a whine based on doing this since invention was brought into the game and the AVERAGE previous success ratio AND chatting to 12 other inventors who are also experiencing the same kind of results now compared to pre patch.
I supppose what I should do is also figure in a success ratio of getting a simple but constructive answer from anyone on these forums and not a simpletons response to the glaringly freakin obvious.
Oh and while i'm riding high on my lil soap box you should wake up and smell the coffee beans if you think CCP inform us of every little change in game mechanics. I mean let's face it, nothing has ever happened post any patch that had a non planned impact on game mechanics now has it......

Well the simple answer to your simple questions is:
Nothing has changed. You are experiencing a bad streak.
Yes there was a post about streaks in the RNG. A dev posted that if someone would give him numbers it would be his personal crusade to fix it. Numbers were gathered. Said numbers showed nothing unusual.
I ask you this. Why do you give money to people who you accuse of lying to you?

Hate to tell you but this "little change" your talking about isn't little it's more like changing the number of turret slots on an Omen.
There is always a I was getting X before and now I get Y... ALWAYS. Keep inventing and you'll return to what ever the average rate of invention based on what it is, decryptor and skill set you have or stop inventing till you feel the situation with the patch is more stable and your success rates will be better.

Wish I normally got an average 60% success rate. The last couple of months, my average is more along the lines of 40%, which I think is still pretty good. Two invention runs "after the patch" gave me an 80% success rate. After that, I was down to about 25%.
Nothing is wrong. Just bad luck.

Nothing has changed, the number of posts asking if it has changed has remained constant through the last 6 months of no changes.
