Care to explain? Titans, supers and rorquals kill off so much fun and enjoyment for new players, which drives them away from EVE. Rorquals remove the need for tons of miners in barges and exhumers because one ship is safer, more efficient than a bunch of people working together. Titans and supers just stomp every shred of fun into the ground when you boson or smart bomb or infinity tackle ships from ridiculous ranges with fighters.

Did people stop mining in highsec when the rorq was introduced? I’m actually asking, but I doubt it.

That just solidifies the fact that you are going to remove any opportunity of Skill Book market pvp. And jsut ■■■■ over anyone who invested in it.

Even if that’s true, it doesn’t matter in the context of the change being described. They’re not mutually exclusive, or even particularly related.

You mean, like knowing people evolve with time and talking about the quality of a person is elitism, AKA mental illness after 15yo ?  
I think he does not. Just don’t answer him and save your time, he’s not here to participate in a debate but to show himself.

Some limits on this would be nice. Don’t include anything capital sized. Also, since weapon specialization skills are faction based and not available in school stations I assume these will still need to be bought from the market? For these something like: “Available on the market starting at xxxx isk in this region or from npc sell orders in [Faction] space.”

Also, do something like Amazon does it: List the price for direct inject and show a price available from market sellers in the same region. Something like “Available for 1000 isk from 3 sellers…” You could deliberately exclude npc sell orders in that.

I do agree on some of the current confusion. It took me a while to understand that the basic skills were all sold at school systems.

Every now and then you’ll find someone who bought a skillbook by accident selling for below NPC price 6+ jumps from a trade hub because they just don’t want to haul it thataways, I guess. I was buying 15 science/research/manufacturing skillbooks for an alt the other week and 3 out of those 15 were cheaper from players in Tash-Murkon than the school station prices, interestingly enough.

I believe that most skill books are available by NPC sell order price within 3 jumps of every major trade hub. Almost every trade hub has a rookie/career system within 2 or 3 jumps, and while not every skill book is available at every school station (never quite figured that out, how some are available at a different set of stations than others, but ah well)… most are.

Your point is “I need Eve to make me feel better about myself, thus ANY form of reduction in complexity is bad.” It’s an insane thing to think, and speaks to personal problems that are better solved offline. You’ll have to excuse me for not delving too deeply into it; I am not a trained psychologist and the potential to cause you actual damage is too real for my tastes.

Im amazed how no one is talking about 0.0 and WH space. This probably doesnt even affect new payers at all. They are more than happy to jump to get into new stuff.

While this makes WH life and 0.0 SO EASY its not even funny.
