Since my research is producing the cores I need for the specific purpose I need them for, your suggestion to Turn Back Now is unconvincing. ---

All I’m saying is that it’s a long grind to get to these agents, and that you’d be better off doing something more valuable with your time and then buying the cores. But I smoked for fifteen years, and if I tell kids it’s bloody stupid they don’t listen to that either, so up to you. ---

It’s a matter of role playing. I have a billion ISK laying about with which I could buy the cores I need, but I prefer to spend the time to do the research, traveling to new places, meeting new people, and killing them, at least the NPCs I encounter along the way. ---

Fine, that’s cool. What types of cores do you need? I feel maybe motivated to spring clean, and can lob some your way maybe. Edit: Electronic Engineering and Rocket Science, those i can do. No guarantee on the time though 🙂 ---

Right now I’m researching for missile T2 blueprints, so I think that’s Electronic Engineering and Rocket Science data cores. ---

I’m in no hurry. Besides, as I say, I’m doing the research for role playing purposes anyway. ---

Despite what some players may say, Research Agents are still a good source for, and I use the term loosely, sorta passive ISK generation. Gaining standing with high lv R&D Agents doesn’t take too long, especially if you have high Faction standings to access that Corp’s high lv Agents. Can just grind out some Distribution missions which can be completed rather quickly to gain the Corp standing required to access the R&D Agent. ---
