Science and Industry
-
As the first step in a revamp of the Tech Two production chains, nine more Alchemy reactions have been added to the game. Alchemy allows capsuleers to bypass the use of certain rare minerals in the production of Tech Two components, through less efficient reactions that use more common minerals. Details on the Alchemy system can be found at this Dev Blog, and the new reactions are covered at this Dev Blog.
-
The reactions have been adjusted since the publishing of the dev blog; the details of the new reactions are:
- 100 Titanium + 100 Vanadium -> 1 Unrefined Vanadium Hafnite -> 20 Vanadium Hafnite + 90 Vanadium
- 100 Cobalt + 100 Platinum -> 1 Unrefined Platinum Technite -> 20 Platinum Technite + 90 Platinum
- 100 Scandium + 100 Chromium -> 1 Unrefined Solerium -> 20 Solerium + 90 Chromium
- 100 Scandium + 100 Cadmium -> 1 Unrefined Caesarium Cadmide -> 20 Caesarium Cadmide + 90 Cadmium
- 100 Evaporite Deposits + 100 Atmospheric Gases -> 1 Unrefined Hexite -> 20 Hexite
- 100 Atmospheric Gases + 100 Tungsten -> 1 Unrefined Rolled Tungsten Alloy -> 20 Rolled Tungsten Alloy + 90 Tungsten
- 100 Evaporite Deposits + 100 Titanium -> 1 Unrefined Titanium Chromide -> 20 Titanium Chromide + 90 Titanium
- 100 Hydrocarbons + 100 Scandium -> 1 Unrefined Fernite Alloy-> 20 Fernite Alloy + 90 Scandium
- 100 Silicates + 100 Cobalt -> 1 Unrefined Crystallite Alloy -> 20 Crystallite Alloy + 90 Cobalt

Mining Barges and Exhumers are getting the "tiericide" treatment where roles within a ship class are favored over linear progression.
Warning: due to the reduction of traditional cargo bays in Mining Barges and Exhumers, if you are in space with an overloaded cargohold on release day, you will need to jettison some cargo in order to warp your ship. If you are overloaded with ore or ice, you can move it to the new ore hold instead.

Ships
- Ships that self-destruct will now drop loot in their wreck. This follows the regular chance based loot drop mechanics for items fitted to the ship and carried in the cargo hold.
- Ships that self-destruct whilst under aggression will now generate a regular kill-report. In order for this to happen, the ship must have been recently aggressed, and there must be at least one of the aggressors in space in the system at the time of death. The final blow will be awarded to the eligible attacker who inflicted the most damage.
- The Tormentor has received an additional turret hardpoint, giving it a total of three.
- Adjusted the material costs of the Atron, Condor, Executioner, Slasher, Incursus, Merlin, Punisher, Rifter, Tormentor to account for removal of ship tiers within the frigate class. Increased material costs show as “extra materials” in manufacturing bills and are not returned when the ship hulls are reprocessed.
- Adjusted the material costs of the Procurer, Retriever, Covetor, Skiff, Mackinaw and Hulk as part of ship tier removal within the mining barge and exhumer ship classes. Increased material costs show as “extra materials” in manufacturing bills and are not returned when the ship hulls are reprocessed.
- Increased base price of the Atron Blueprint, Condor Blueprint, Executioner Blueprint, Incursus Blueprint, Slasher Blueprint, Tormentor Blueprint, Procurer Blueprint, Retriever Blueprint, Skiff Blueprint and Mackinaw Blueprint to adjust for ship material cost changes.
Skills
- Ethnic Relations skill changed into Diplomatic Relations. The old effect of segregating corporations by races is gone, so all corporations can have all races, always. The skill now reduces the cost to hire allies in war. The skill will not be reimbursed as it is not being removed, but changed.
Modules
- The 'Rampart' Kinetic Plating I has been renamed to Experimental Explosive Plating I, and now gives an explosive bonus; previously the 'Rampart' plating had identical stats to the Experimental Kinetic Plating I, and there was no corresponding Explosive plating with the same bonus.

- Improved Centii A, B, C-Type Small Remote Armor Repair System attributes. Increased repair amount, reduced capacitor usage and extended range.
- Improved Coreli A, B, C-Type Small Remote Armor Repair System attributes. Increased repair amount, reduced capacitor usage and extended range.
- Improved Centum A, B, C-Type Medium Remote Armor Repair System attributes. Increased repair amount and reduced capacitor usage.

- Improved Gistii A, B, C-Type Small Shield Transporters. Increased shield transported amount, reduced capacitor usage and extended range.
- Improved Pithum C A, B, C-Type Medium Shield Transporters. Increased shield transported amount and reduced capacitor usage.
- Improved Gistum A, B, C-Type Medium Shield Transporters. Increased shield transported amount, reduced capacitor usage and extended range.
- "Synthetic Hull Conversion Inertia Stabilizers I" signature radius penalty has been reduced to be more in line with other "Synthetic Hull Conversion" modules. (CCP Tallest says hello).
- All "Micro" shield extenders have had their skill requirement changed from Engineering I to Shield Upgrades I and are now affected by the Shield Upgrades skill bonus.
- Changed Ionic Field Projector and Targeting System Subcontroller rigs to ensure that they correctly receive stacking penalties when used alongside modules that affect the same attribute. Remote Sensor Boosters are already stacking penalized with local Sensor Boosters; we triple checked.
Weapons & Ammunition
- The following missing Missiles have been added to the Guristas Loyalty Points store; "Guristas Inferno Heavy Assault Missile", "Guristas Mjolnir Heavy Assault Missile", "Guristas Nova Heavy Assault Missile", "Guristas Scourge Heavy Assault Missile".
- Updated FOF missile names to match their category name of Auto-Targeting missiles.

- There is now an option in the Escape Menu under the Miscellaneous section called: ‘Enable Green screen Portrait Background’ which allows you apply a green screen background while in character creation or re-customization. When in the Portrait screen, the green background can be found at the far left of the Backgrounds menu. Also, when the green screen background option is enabled, it appears in the 3D avatar preview window as well.
- At the race-selection screen regions of the map will highlight during mouse-over and can be clicked to select a race.
