    Going to guess that the Cobalt for Platinum Technite thing is a troll and they switch it out for a different one to fuck with the speculators.

    I'm betting my money on crystalline carbonide and crystallite alloy personally. I think the knock-on effect from the cobalt speculation will bump those up a bit.

    -O
    I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those Thukkers, that way I wouldn't have to have any goddamn stupid useless conversations with anybody.

    You can run 3 alchemy reactions on a large tower.

    A good start, but theres still quite alot that needs to be done to bring the system as a whole into harmony.

    The most major thing is they need to do a complete revision on which T2 products use which moon mins, way too many of most important & used T2 stuff requires tech. This needs to be done very very fucking carefully as they will simply recreate the error if they do this wrong again.

    As for other things,

    Moon mining needs to be changed to require more involvement then setting it up & then just emptying silos on occasion. The simplest route would be to use the already in place PI harvesting mechanics and apply that to moon mining. This would allow them to diversify the contents of the moon, as well as presenting the player with choices on weither they want shorter harvesting cycles w/ better returns that require more effort, or longer ones with less payout & effort. It also provides a system for diminshing returns over time with how hot spots are depleted and grow.

    Move moon harvesters outside the shields(did they do this yet?) & add a new type of silo for freshly mined mins that also needs to be outside, give em enough HP that they can be destroyed in a reasonably, but atleast offers the owner some sort of time to mount a defence.

    Add small quantities of moon mats to roids or simply add new roids that contain them. Or alternatively they could add a moon harvester module for the rorqual.

    But then again what do I know, I havent even played in the better part of a year.

    Using current Jita prices, to get 200 units of plat tech through alchemy, it cost 6.09m vs 8.88m through the normal route. This of course does not factor in tower fuel, but Im pretty sure you can run the full reaction on a single tower.

    They tried to interdict all ice and admitted it did not have a great effect. So they focused on oxygen ice. You can do reactions on any tower so how effective could an ice interdiction be?

    From the devblogs comment thread:
    "This is the first step in our plan to revamp tech 2 production. Changes to how the minerals are obtained will be coming before we're done (although probably not from PI)."

    so other sources for moongoo then moons are coming, but not in inferno 1.2

    You don't get it do you - Alchemy pricing is strongly linked to POS fuel prices, which are being kept elevated by Hulkageddon.
    That dude.

    Correct. Can be done either on gallente or caldari towers.
