Hi,

It would be great if T2 equipment or at least the skill requirements for it, was removed from the game.

Eve is all about risk/reward (and alot of other stuff), but certanly not about training to lvl 70 so that you can insta pop those at lvl 50.

For instance take a std T1 blaster its good, but if you want something better buy a named, or if you have just sold all your timecodes go faction. Or as it is now, just wait for 2 years and buy a T2 at the same price of a T1, doesnt make sense.

Best regards

Why should older players be rewarded with super items at a low cost?

What part of this isn't balanced? Simply claiming "it isn't balanced" doesn't make it so.

Thank you for pointing that out.

Risk/benefit is the thing this thread is about. Risk/benefit for T2 equipment is the thing that isn't balanced.

It seems to me that ppl disagree, which is okay for that matter.

But I failed to miss the point why it is good that older players can undock at a much lower risk than new players?

Best regards

I lol'd hard at "level 70" tbh.

Remember that T2 ships insure for crap. There is no reward for getting one killed if you're the one flying it. T2 modules got driven down in price by invention, but most of them are within the 1-3 million ISK range. That's well ahead of all but their meta 4 counterparts price-wise (most of the time.) For that extra ISK you get a better module, but not one that gives you that big of an advantage. I think the risk and reward of T2 is fairly healthy.

T2 ships fits well in the risk/reward concept. My argument was mainly addressed at the part where you can get better equipment at a lower cost just because you have been playing longer.

Lol, people can never be pleased.

The OP seems mostly concerned about the ISK cost of purchasing t2 items. Well, before invention, t2 production was controlled by a *very* small number of players, and predictably the prices were high because it was a quasi-cartel situation. Invention changed that, and brought the prices down. And now people complain that the prices are too low??? Just train your skills, and you'll appreciate the lower ISK prices for gear that has a higher CPU and in some cases grid cost.

Sheesh, people will complain about anything.

This thread is a joke right? A really stupid troll?

Remove skill requirements for T2 modules?

So all the TIME I've spent skilling for T2 guns or a full T2 tank or T2 ewar or T2 cap stuff, should be completely wasted? Just because T2 is cheaper now than it was?

It's called SUPPLY & DEMAND.

QUIT BEING ****ING STUPID

All I'm saying is that better items should be more expensive. I'm not trying to take anything away from ppl.
