Last chance to buy cheap minerals, tomorrow's patch cuts around 40% of the high end mineral supplies. Get them while they're cheap.

(yes I invested a crapload of isk into them, I'm rich!)

I'm out of isk so I'm spreading the good news. Donations are welcome for this information.

Enjoy the patch fallout.

wow your about a month to late if people start this now, might be able to make a small bit of profit though, plus the market wont show anything for at least another month... Whats available now isnt gunna magically all vanish when the clock hits 12:00 tommorrow.

Who says I'm late

Didn't mean you specifically, i mean you as in anyone that does it now. if you get me.

there are a lot of people in this thread who don't understand how massive a 40% supply cut is

Its like right between 39 and 41 %, isn't it?

Dude....

The last chance to buy cheap minerals was months ago. Rename your thread to 'Look at how dumb I am'. It'll be much more relevant.

Mr Epeen

Meta 0 goes too. 40% is modest.

Many L4 mission runners do not care about loot and even skip rogue drone missions. The biggest loads of minerals I keep buying seem to be coming from miners. I do not think it is not going to be as huge as many seem to believe. Not that I am not curious about the change...

Rogue drone missions? We're talking of drone 0.0 space. Rogue drone missions are irrelevant.

So all those industrial-based alliances and corps who've been renting space in the drone regions are all going to just stop supplying minerals, and concentrate on shooting the new bounty drones... so they can what?

Start importing all their minerals from Jita?

Is CCP removing asteroid belts and gravimetric sites from the drone regions as well?

Given the makeup of the population in the Drone Regions, it's a bit of a stretch to try and argue that the mineral supply from there is going to drop to 0%.

You really should fly out there at some stage... there is literally no one left in drone region space. everyone moved out long ago.

Made the mistake of spending several hours looking to pew out there last 3 weeks, every local was pretty much empty, i think at one stage i saw 6 people in one system thats about it. And we checked dozens of systems.

Well if nobody is there, what supply is getting cut?

I understand, but how much of it lands at Jita? It seems awfully far away.

the stock pile supply that is currenty slowly getting bled dry, hence the increase in price because the reserves are diminishing.......

Nah. 15 jumps or so.

It is not what I meant, Tippia. You are not going to take a freighter, load it up in 0.0 and set it on auto-pilot to Jita.

That is why there are jumpfreighters.

Again, I understand, but why would you fill a jump freighter with tritanium or pyerite to sell it at Jita? Are minerals not needed in 0.0? Do they all end up at Jita only to go back into 0.0 again?

It is not worth it to mine Veldspar in 0.0. The drone regions supplied ~80% of the higend minerals. What you don't use in 0.0 production (Nox, Zyrd, Mega, Morphite) you sell to the market, and buy the Trit, Pye, Mex, Iso, to ship back to 0.0(usually compressed into 425mm rails).

Thanks. This is what I was aware off, just not how the drone regions take influence on the low-end minerals.

You still don't get it, ...

No its right between 39.9% and 40.1%

You're an idiot.

Maybe.

But it doesn't feel like it.

For example, I bought 3B units of trit at 3.3 isk a piece months ago and just sold them at 5.6 isk a piece.
But I guess all the smart people are buying it now at 5.8 and waiting for it to go even higher. I always learned buy low, sell high. Not buy high, sell higher.

My bad. I'll just sit here on the nearly 7 billion I made off that one of the many trades I made and feel sorry for myself.

Mr Epeen

When the mineral bubble bursts a lot of people will be reduced to begging in Jita

Well if nobody is there, what supply is getting cut?

It could be worse, like it could rain Tornados onto Jita.

You mean, "it could be better".

Damn necro! Took me two pages to read before I noticed what patch and mineral changes they're talking about!
