Subject says it all. The skillbooks that are typically available for Minmatar and Gallente Industrial are missing from NPC stations/sellers including the starter systems. Amarr and Caldari are still present but those races have turned up missing.
Just tried to find this and was so confused how nothing was available. Thought maybe my market was bugged and I flew directly to the NPC station and it was totally gone. Thought someone had maybe attempted to corner the market on this.
Wish I’d thought to google this before flying to all the Gallente rookie systems with an alt. I do hope they aren’t trying to make everything direct inject only (if they want to increase the price just increase the seed price and also the direct inject price to further increase the isk sink). The direct inject kind of removes a form of the gameplay if they make it the only option (or even if they price it too low when compared to the seeded station prices), we want folks out flying ships and doing stuff.
I didn’t realize some BPO’s had disappeared as well, wonder what part of the code lead to this weird bug? I’d like to read the bug report on how the various components clashed to cause this (legacy EvE bugs are kind of fun to read about as a sort of blooper reel and as a reminder of what it takes to keep EvE running).
Yep, Mining Barges and Exhumers skillbooks as well. Quite annoying.
This is also the case with [Empire] Drone Specialization, but at least for these (and other turrets/launchers specialization) you can get them from some LP stores when the starter corps don’t have them.
Why should this be limited in numbers as if it was some hardcover books. This is so 1450.
I can’t imagine Amazon not wanting to sell me electronic books.
