Patch Notes 0312

2025-03-12

To New Eden Capsuleers,
EVE Echoes will undergo maintenance on 3/12/2025 at 08:00 (UTC+0) and will take approximately 120 minutes to complete. During this time, players will be unable to log in to the game. We kindly ask for your understanding and patience during the maintenance.
 
New Features
Nanocore Data Bank
Capsuleers with the Omega Duo Bundle can use the Nanocore Data Bank. When Capsuleers with the Omega Duo Bundle dismantle a Nanocore, it will automatically be uploaded to the Data Bank. They can also manually upload cores from the station or citadel hangars or download them from the Data Bank to these locations.
Capsuleers can directly replace Nanocores that have been uploaded to the Data Bank in the Nanocore interface of any station or citadel. If a Capsuleer no longer possesses the Omega Duo Bundle, they will lose access to the Data Bank and will be unable to replace cores within it, but they can download them to the current station or citadel hangar.
 
Capsuleer Personal Office Inventory
The station operation panel has added the option to rent backup inventory in stations for categorizing and storing Capsuleers' items. All Capsuleers can rent, but only those with the Omega Duo Bundle can use the rented hangar.
Materials from the backup inventory will not be spent when producing with Construction or upgrading nanocores with modules.
Each station's backup inventory requires a weekly maintenance fee and rent of 4,000,000 ISK, which will be automatically deducted from the wallet.
When unable to pay the fee, the backup inventory will cease operation, and the materials inside will be frozen and cannot be moved in, moved out, or used until the fee is paid.
The overdue fee cap for each station's Personal Office Inventory is 4,000,000 ISK, and it does not accumulate over time.
  
Balance Adjustments
Ships
CyanSea. New bonuses: +50% Merit from defeating Pirates, 20% Insurance Claim discount, and gain damage and EHP bonuses from raising in rank (same as other CONCORD ships).
Venture Covert Ops. Increase attributes such as Capacitor and EHP by approximately 5%.
 
Skills
Mothership Command Technology. Its skill category has been changed from Cooperative Combat to Fleet Support.
All Capital Ship Engineering skills. Changed its Warp Capacitor Consumption from -30%/-30%/-30% to -40%/-50%/-60%.
Advanced Capital Ship Components Production Optimization skills are now available. They can reduce the ISK cost of producing different capital ship components (which can be purchased directly with CONCORD Credit or in limited quantities in the recommended Store)
 
Ore Compression
All stations have discontinued the service of compressing common ores into high-density polymerized ores, replacing them with rich ore compression lines, significantly reducing its Fuel Usage, and adding the compression functionality for Moon Ore, as follows:
After the adjustment, common ores like Spodumain will be compressed into Rich Spodumain or their corresponding rich ores. Compared to before, the fuel cost has now dropped by approximately 60% when compressing the same amount of ores.
Reduce C70's fuel cost by approximately 80%, and reduce C50 and C6's fuel cost by over 90%.
Moon Ores such as Stellarite can now be compressed into rich ores using the new compression production line in the station. The corresponding uncompressed ores can be obtained by reprocessing them (they will not be reprocessed into materials).
 
Construction
When Manufacturing Fullero-Ferrocene and other intermediate materials, the manufacturing quantity per batch has been increased from a maximum of 10 Groups to 20 Groups.
Capsuleer Scout Outpost. Changed the ratio of Morphite and intermediate materials requirements, reducing the total cost by approximately 8%.
Corporation Scout Outpost. Changed the ratio of Morphite and intermediate materials requirements, reducing the total cost by approximately 7%.
 
Market
To improve the convenience of capital ship trading when there are insufficient transport ships, capital ships can now be delivered to the Trading Center in the Jita System. At the same time, to ensure the orderly operation of the delivery industry, the capital ship delivery fee has been increased.
Capital Ship Delivery Fee = 1,000,000,000 + 100,000,000 x Delivery Distance (Lightyear).
The delivery fee for supercarriers is twice that of regular capital ships.
Please note that the vast majority of capital ships cannot enter High Sec for combat. After purchase, the capital ship must remain packaged and be delivered to another Low Sec Trading Center using the station delivery feature before it can be assembled and deployed.
 
Structure
Capsuleer Outpost. The fuel cap has been reduced to the same level as the Capsuleer Scout Outpost. The unanchoring time has been reduced from 48 Hours to 24 Hours, and the Minimum Hull Reinforcement Duration has been reduced from 48 Hours to 24 Hours.
Capsuleer Scout Outpost now comes with Cloning Center service by default. Unanchoring time was reduced from 36 hours to 24 hours. TIPS will now display Armor Reinforcement Duration (Note: It lasts only 1 hour, different from standard models)
Corporation Outpost III: Time to upgrade to Corporation Citadel reduced from 16 days to 7 days (Note: Cannot be downgraded after upgrade)
Temporarily removed the Corporation Frontline Outpost Blueprint from sale on the Jita Market
 
With technological advancements, Corporation Frontline Outpost technology has been applied to Reconnaissance Outposts. In two weeks, Corporation Reconnaissance Outposts and Capsuleer Scout Outposts will be able to anchor in the Etherium Reach region, and Wasteseeker Siege Bases will appear in the Etherium Reach region.

This model can cause capacitor neutralization effects while ignoring part of the target's Capacitor Warfare Resistance, and the beam strength and beam radius have also been partially improved.
How to obtain: Obtain through Industrial Manufacturing or Store for a limited time.
