Farming Sim > Perp

I've been meaning to try it and this was the push I needed.

Well that doesn't sound too bad.

where did you get that information from? I don't see anything like that on PTS.

I thought there were new requirements like the combat pilot one under robot control but I probably misunderstood.

I can understand the overall reduction of DPS and EW as well as the relative buff to light and assault bots. I don't like the nerf to mining and harvesting or the additional EP it will take me to pilot bots I already pilot. It feels like the EP changes will hurt most for characters in the ~3-500k EP range like mine. /QQ

True Ville but those first 4 production lines were before joining PHM and done on alpha.

To play devil's advocate on myself though, it's entirely possible I could have made more money doing more robot farming and selling raw materials.

Haven't read the whole thread but to the OP:

Producing is almost impossible with 1 account. With 3 accounts it can be profitable. I have a miner/producer, miner/repper and a combat/artifacter. After 3 months I researched and produced 4 lines of t4 mods netting 1/4 to 1/2 billion. Then again I don't know how that compares to pure combat or mining.

One more things: My producer account spent EP on mining before production - you need the raw materials before you can produce anything!

Known issue 2: epriton was accidentally assigned to ASI alpha islands instead of ASI betas. Hotfix tomorrow. Mining rush in 3... 2... 1...

Wow, is this going to totally screw up the market? Not just the Epriton market but all T4 equipment? There is going to be a hell of a lot of Epriton mined today if my crowded field is any indication.
