I know this topic has been discussed before , but do take a moment to read it first to know what i am implying.
This is not a rant or a whine thread and i am not here to discuss the implication it has on miners/pk'rs/crafters.
What i want to understand is how it effects FPC ( Calypso) when a rare material is made so abundant in another planet.
1. As a Calypsian who loves being in Calypso, i just spend 1 week on Next Island , solely for the reason of getting Blood Moss. So that is an attrition of play time revenue from Calypso.
2. As to how abundant it is in NI , my avg 100 probe unamped run with tt finder got me minimum 10 ped of bm and sometimes went as high as 20+ peds in a run. That to me is a pretty high find rate for BM.
3. I know a lot of other miners who have moved from Calypso to NI for the same reason. Some have created sister/father/brother accounts as well because even with a new avatar they are getting the same amount of BM as someone with high skills. ( Kindly do not ask for names)
So my question is basically : Should FPC not be bothered by this?? Not about Blood Moss prices going down, not about miners/pk'rs being bothered, neither about crafters rejoicing but mostly about there loss of revenue from people who would otherwise not leave Calypso.
I cannot put mathematics to it , but is the increase of Crafting activity on the healing kits high enough to compensate the loss of miners+pk revenue? That is one thing which also needs to be checked because without it the picture would be incomplete. I however doubt that to be the case.
Next Island Perspective ( Any New Planet Partner) : This is a clever ploy from a marketing perspective within the EU world from the new planets perspective. Of course they get people to come and mine there who otherwise would not. However, should it be allowed is a very different story.
Lets keep it civil guys. The objective here is to understand rather then fight.
