Evening!
Finally someone wants to discuss this mess. Ive been producing T2 rigs for several years and I'm usually the only producer in the whole Galaxy on some rigs. The steep increase in prices *ESPECIALLY* power circuits seems to be a combined market manip and a general decrease in supply.
CCP promised player wrecks would drop more....it hasn't happened. I have salvaged a few hundred player wrecks since the change...they FAILED. I salvaged a Tengu wreck the other day and got two Conductive Thermoplastic and METAL SCRAPS. WTF CCP! Metal Scraps from a Tengu?
Also, commander spawns *seem* to be more frequent but FFS I get tons and tons of T1 salvage from them. I URGED CCP to make a T2 drop from commanders *mandatory*...simple table. If you got a drop, you got *at least* 1 piece of T2. But no....
If they really want T2 rigs to come down...power circuits have GOT to come down. I just don't see it happening.
The suggestion of blowing up insured T2 works..somewhat..Ive blown up nearly 50b in T2 ships in Jita for salvage and its pretty much a break even proposition. The RNG is just too random...and you can really take a bath if you go too crazy. And you dont use a carrier, you use your old buddy Orca.
The ME: 0 blueprints in all sizes have helped out the rig market somewhat...but most people are grossly overpricing their copies.
I have my doubts about CCP interfering here since they seem content to let prices on almost everything float upwards to
sink more ISK. I guess we will see.
I also seriously doubt there is much loose T2 salvage floating in hangars. The high prices and immediate access to market data virtually ensures all T2 salvage gets to market rapidly.
Again, this is going to be a wait-and-see proposition.

Have to agree, something new went down under the hood. I have salvaged around 12 Commander spawns in 3 days and my salvage from them is 0. No T1, no T2, no salvage.
I've said before, RNG in EVE is, uncontested, hands down the most punishing, unrewarding in any MMO I have ever played. In the course of 7 years I have killed thousands of T2 commanders and I have gotten 2 blueprints, both Daredevils. One I took from a miners abandoned Shadow kill. The tags are trash, the ammo is always 40%, 60% ranged. It's like finding a chunk of gravel shaped like a button. Rare, unique but still just worthless gravel.
My tests on Farming T2 salvage were done in a 3 rig Noctis with Salvage 5 and I can tell you, avoid anything but Amarr just because they are the only ones that drop Intact armor and Cap consoles on a regular basis. I don't know what CCP are doing in this department any more and I don't know if I care at this point. |

CCP starts to fix botting --> bots can be programmed to do certain things like salvage wrecks with "dread guristas" in their name --> salvage prices increase --> ??? |

That would be true "if" but that isn't what's happening.
ANN's prices are down, volume is through the roof.
Current Pump prices are static, volume is up.
Micro Curcuit prices are down
Interface circuits, Logic Circuits, Power circuits are all up in price but volumes are as well. That's market manipulation.
Add to that the salvage rates are down in certain spots. I'm actually going to speculate and say most of this stuff comes from Faction War, not macro farming in null. The same with the tags. |
