Daring capsuleers,  The ongoing effort to create new career and specialization opportunities for budding SKINdustrialists  continues today with a new Equinox update. Several alterations were made in the last update on 25 July, including modifications to the cost and time requirements associated with SKINR, and a new skill that reduces Paragon Hub vendor fees. Today’s update continues that trajectory, adding the ability to try out any design elements in your creations and apply all nanocoatings to any slot, as well as several quality-of-life improvements. Furthermore, for the next seven days, you can claim daily SKINR-themed rewards. At the same time, work continues on other important updates to Equinox, such as Skyhook raiding and more. 

UPDATE: In a happy little accident the DLI has been extended until 27 August and the total available skill points will be 425,000 for Omegas.

Pioneering capsuleers,

The transition to a new sovereignty system is about to begin, ushering in a new era with unprecedented topology for nullsec space. In light of feedback from experienced pilots and the CSM, updates have been made to ensure that systems’ value and output facilitate freedom and strategy in sovereignty upgrades. 



Power output from most stars has been increased to raise the floor of the weakest ones, adding more strategic options, ensuring that every system can install sovereignty upgrades, and adding increased flexibility. The lowest power stars now provide 500 power, and the highest ones remain unchanged at 1,000, the average coming in at 651 power. Additionally, the power requirements for strategic upgrades, such as Cynosural Suppression, have been reduced, allowing defensive postures to be adopted in all systems. Supercapital Con... Read more

Sovereign capsuleers,  It’s been nine days since Equinox launched, and you have certainly been busy! SKINdustrialists have been traveling far and wide to find SKINR components in space to craft thousands of amazing designs, while the new Upwell industrial ships have been snagging kills left and right, as well as doing their fair share of exploding. Over in nullsec, orbital skyhooks are stocking up on superionic ice and magmatic gas, and Metenox moon drills are busy harvesting. 


As part of the phased rollout of Equinox, IRIS has announced that the Paragon Hub will now allow the sale of player-created SKINs, three Homefront Operations have been added, tailored toward smaller groups, and there is an important announcement regarding the transition to the new sovereignty system.

Capsuleers,

The Equinox expansion is imminent, and with it come new changes to nullsec infrastructure. This blog will explain the mechanics of the new Upwell structures that will be introduced, including the new sovereignty hub, sovereignty upgrades, orbital skyhook and the resources that those structures will both generate and consume.

Check out this overview of the structures and ships from Upwell:



Introducing a new set of resources, all while making changes to sovereignty, is no small endeavor. New upgrades will require new resources, and those new resources take time to acquire. To ensure that everyone has a smooth and equitable transition period, different elements will be released gradually to avoid the overburdening of your logistics networks.
