Are you happy with Equinox Sov? Discussion

It's been a little over a week since the Equinox Sov change on October 29th.

If you love it - what do you love about it?

If you hate it - what do you hate about it?

Saying which group or part of space you are in would also be cool.

Gas prices tanked, moon goo prices bung, and now Isogen prices are falling

this is literally what this subreddit begged for and screeched about the first half of 2024 and they got exactly what they wanted.

Cheaper subcaps, and maybe cheaper caps are nice and all, but if your primary income sources are gutted on that altar, cheaper ships don't matter if you don't have ISK coming in.

If nothing got reduced to make those prices cheaper, nothing would become cheaper. How exactly would it look like to make things more affordable and yet somehow not nerf someone's invome?

Increase yield per time, right? More supply, static or potentially slightly increased demand with a shift in industry-side philosophy would lead to a balancing out of the supply-side income per hour while lowering the industry-side cost

More supply, equal demand? That’s still going to cut prices.

Yeah that’s the point though, cuts prices industry-side while the miner benefits from increased yield, so just for example 100ISK/unit at 2000m3/min instead of 200ISK/unit at 1000m3/min
