The reason why recon ships increased in prices is obvious, the announcement of cyno change for September. My question is; Why did recon ship prices start to increase in early July when the announcement by CCP was August 28th?

Much better alternative can be used for the same price or cheaper. ---

This forum have plenty of thread about blackout and i’m very glad that you just discovered the “no-dscan + blackout” combo but im talking about the unusual price raise of future exclusive cyno ship 2 months before the CCP announcement. We need ‘Large IQ injectors’ over here… plz halp ---

Yea my bad, I assumed that you got it. I’ll edit my first post with pictures and charts as soon as I reach home. In the meantime, for the must genius of us, im talking about Arazu, Rapier, etc recon class ---

The ones that aren’t d-scan immune fit a covert ops cloak, which is _also_ stronger without local. ---

You might like to think that, but we didn’t hear about the change till shortly before you did. ---

How the thing works during the “CSM round table” discussion about future change? I’d like to know because even if you get the official information shortly before we did but you had a 3 weeks discussion about “How to change the cynos”… the result still the same. And between you and me, with CCP allegation against Brisc few months ago… I allowed myself to have some doubts about this process. Insider trading is a legal offend irl then who cares about a video game? (irl you can always have a lawyer to defend your virgin integrity at least… not ig) edit: I edited my first post about price history for the ones who needed it to fully understand where im going with all this ---

> [@Lady\_Zee](#): > > I edited my first post about price history for the ones who needed it to fully understand where im going with all this And the answer has been given already - 5th of July was the date this Scope report was posted: [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/f/c/0/fc04906ada28fa7d4e467e23ee0d0d23c30ade1b.jpeg "The Scope - Nullsec Blackout") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpbLpKNQiUk) followed by this piece of news: > **[Nullsec Local Blackout Incoming During July! | EVE Online](https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/nullsec-local-blackout-incoming-during-july)** > > Take a look at this news item for details of a local communications blackout that will be starting in nullsec over the course of the coming days.

Will not even read replies, just to let you know the only increase in price change you will see is in high sec. In nul nothing has happened, nothing will happen and probably half of the older players have on average 200 recons sitting in stations and occasionally sell them off whenever someone needs one. Your post, sir, is invalid. Well, except in highsec where us nullers like to screw over you nubs ---
