IĈm writing this post mainly to ask if anyone else has experienced a lack of successful inventions delivered since the quantum rise patch
While it may be construed as a whine (in some ways it is) I have already contacted CCP (day 8 without an answer) as to why invention within eve (or just me personally) has taken a dive.
In the last month I have installed 67 jobs and successfully invented 12 of those jobs. (17.9%) With the current streak being 17 failed jobs and it looks like its still rising up, up and up.
I am well aware that invention is a chance based engine IĈm sure that CCP have a magic slider where at one end thereĈs no chance and the other end its high chance of success, IĈm think that since the patch it seems to be stuck on the no chance end.
So again IĈm asking all those lovely inventors out there who give a dam to post their success and fail rate since the patch as well as their current success streak.

67 whole jobs? You don't even tell us what your expected chance is based on the type of job, decryptor, and skills.
Other folks are having the same complaint. Why not check out this thread and this one.

Invention is broken, I'd give up on it until next patch.

67 isnt enough to see a proper pattern when dealing with random stats. This comes up after every patch, and every patch there was no change.

67 jobs
There is your problem, 67 is not a statisically significant number of attempts. try running 300-700 runs then you can make more accurate assesment.
As for my results and success rates, they seem no different than in previous patches..

I support this idea. Stop all your inventions. Go mine or spin your ship in the hanger - JUST STOP INVENTING
(or whine on the forums - it's all good for me )

I did 200 inventions recently and got 80 successes out of them. This translates to 40% rate, which is above the expectated rate considering my skills are only at two or three.
Invention is working within normal parameters.

Based on a full 10 runs a time and a theoretical 25.5 percent chance on my max invention skills, last week i got 1/10 so a 10 percent return, this week i got 3/10 so a 30 percent return.
I would say it was within the usual paramaters, you have good weeks and bad weeks but it averages to the same theoretical chance over the mid term.

I was wondering where this thread was. The "wtf is up with exploration since the patch??" has already been posted, so I was fearing this one wouldn't show up.
Balance is important, but you will always adapt to changing circumstances and you don't whine about stuff you can't change. |

You should have done some calculations to see how much capital you need to survive these loosing streaks (within a given %).
I have done this analysis at Linkage
So for 99% chance of breaking even with an ishtar you need 239 attempts
(30% chance of success, 5.6mil cost per try, T2 BPC worth 24mil )

EVERY patch at least one person complains that invention is broken. It isn't. In fact, for non-ship inventions I've been on a lucky streak lately with a 67% success rate. You've just been unlucky.
