[[EVE University]] '''Diplomacy Directorate''''s mandate is to preserve the corporation's reputation amongst the EVE Online community and uphold it's [[neutrality]]. The Directorate manages relationships and standings for the [[Ivy League Alliance]], and acts as primary point of contact for diplomatic communications. Diplomats are responsible to receive, investigate and seek resolution for diplomatic incidents involving EVE University members. The Directorate is also responsible for the administration of the Ivy League Alts Alliance and [[EVE University Hall of Residence]].
  
Frequency Crystals (used by [[Turrets#Energy_Turrets|laser turrets]]), and Mining Crystals, used by [[ORE_Basic_Ship_and_Skill_Guide#Mining_crystals|modulated mining modules]] <ref group=Note name=modulated /> in EVE Online may receive "damage" and eventually be consumed (or in common terms, ''shatter''). These crystals have a Hit Point value much like any other destructible object, and shattering occurs when enough damage is taken by the crystal to lower its hit points to zero. The life expectancy of a given crystal, i.e. the average amount of time it may be used before it shatters, may be calculated from its attributes.
 
  
As with most transportable objects in EVE Online, one may right-click a combat or mining crystal and choose Show Info. The information in which we are interested are within the Attributes tab of the Show Info window.

There are four different attributes that affect the life expectancy of a crystal. These attributes function identically for both combat and mining crystals.

=== Volatility ===
+
=== Diplomats ===
This attribute is the chance of the crystal taking damage upon every activation cycle. For example, a Volatility of 10% would mean that each activation cycle the crystal has a 10% (1 in 10) chance of receiving damage.  The actual amount of damage is fixed, and is given by the '''Volatility Damage''' attribute.
+
{| style="margin-left: 2em;"
 
+
|-
Some combat crystals have a 100% chance of damage per shot.  It also means that the life expectancy of these combat crystals may be calculated exactly, because every shot will always damage the crystal.  (Faction combat crystals have a 100% Volatility, i.e. a 100% chance of crystal damage inflicted per shot.)
+
| [[Image:Aren_Dar.jpg|50px|link= User:Aren Dar]] || '''Aren Dar'''
 
+
|}
=== Volatility Damage ===
 
This is the actual amount of damage the crystal may receive during an activation cycle based upon its Volatility.
 
 
 
=== Crystals Take Damage ===
 
This attribute is always either True or False. If it is True, then the crystal actually takes damage based upon the other attributes above, and it will eventually shatter.
 
 
 
The only crystals in the game whose Crystals Take Damage value is False are the Tech 1 combat crystals. These will never take damage and thus they may be used indefinitely. Note that if the value of this attribute is False, then it will not even be listed in the Attributes tab of the Show Info window.
 
  
=== Activation Cycles ===
+
== Standings ==
In terms of Volatility, an Activation Cycle is a single cycled use of a crystal by the turret within which it is loaded. With combat crystals, each time the energy weapon is fired is considered one cycle.  
+
E-Uni seeks to remain neutral. We allow anyone to request blue standings, but we will only agree to this when it is mutually beneficial.
  
With mining crystals, a cycle may begin with the activation of the mining laser and may end with either the deactivation of the laser or the acquisition of materials (ore or ice). This means that a cycle is completed even if a mining laser is turned off early. Repeatedly turning a mining laser on and off will risk damaging the crystal whether or not any actual materials were mined.
+
=== Check current ===

Contact one of the diplomats listed, and they will verify the standings for you.
  
== Formula  ==
+
=== Change ===
The formula for determining average life expectancy of a crystal is simple:
+
Changes to EVE Uni's standings toward other entities can be done by:
: <math>\text{Life Expectancy (in cycles)} = \text{Structure Hitpoints} / \text{Volatility} / \text{Volatility Damage}</math>
+
* joining the EVE University alt corporation, for alts of a member
 +
* joining the Ivy League alt alliance, for corporations of alts of a member
 +
* request standing change (e.g. blue status) for a corporation or alliance
  
One may then multiply the expected cycles by the cycle time to calculate a crystal's life expectancy over time. Remember that Volatility is a percentage, so for example, a crystal with a Volatility of 10% must use the value 0.10 in the equation.
+
==== Join request ====
 +
* Add an '''alt character''' to the EVE University alt corporation - Use the [https://forms.gle/wMLowXQzQH3BwMYg6 Ivy League Alt Corp Request] form
 +
* Add an '''alt corporation''' to the Ivy League alt alliance
 +
** Requires the [[Sophomore]] title
 +
** The corporation may not be war eligible <!-- Picked this up from EVE University Hall of Residence -->
 +
** Use the [https://forms.gle/wMLowXQzQH3BwMYg6 Ivy League Alt Alliance Request] form
 +
<!-- After receiving agreement for the Ivy League Alt Alliance Request form request? If so make that clear.-->
 +
*** Apply in-game to the alliance and transfer 24 million ISK to [[EVE University Hall of Residence]]. (This covers your fees from CCP for your corp being in the alt alliance).
  
== Examples ==
+
==== Standing change request ====
As the volatility damage is chance based the following numbers are only an indication.
+
Request standings changes (e.g. blue status) for a corporation or alliance - Use the [https://forms.gle/M42CP8MADTrmVMyQ9 Ivy League Standings Request form].
  
The Simple Asteroid Mining Crystal Type A I has a Volatility of 10%, which means that for every cycle there is a 10% chance that it will receive damage. The amount of damage it receives will be the Volatility Damage value of 0.05 HP. It will shatter when its total damage reaches the Structure Hitpoints value of 1 HP.  
+
Please note that EVE University does '''not''' allow single characters, [[NPC corporations]], or corps within an alliance to be granted +5 status.
  
This means that, on the average, the crystal has a life expectancy of <math>1 / 0.10 / 0.05 = 200</math> cycles.  With a standard (unbonused) strip mining cycle time of 180 seconds, one may estimate that a crystal will endure approximately 36,000 seconds, or 10 hours, of constant mining before shattering.
+
== Aggression reports <!-- Should this be Diplomatic incident?--> ==
 +
If an Ivy League member has been the victim of a diplomatic incident (for example, a Blue on Blue incident) please submit the details by completing the [https://forms.gle/oa6jSiyEg7gp2KFL9 Diplomatic Contact Form] so our diplomats can investigate the matter and adjust standings as necessary.
  
The Simple Asteroid Mining Crystal Type A II has a Volatility of 12%. It has the same 0.05 HP Volatility Damage, and 1 HP Structure Hitpoints as the tech I variant. As a result, the crystal has a life expectancy of <math>1 / 0.12 / 0.05 = 166</math> cycles, about 8 hours.
+
If you believe to have been the victim of a diplomatic incident or poor behavior by an Ivy League member, please use the [https://forms.gle/oa6jSiyEg7gp2KFL9 Diplomatic Contact Form] to allow for the Diplomats to make further inquiries.
 
 
However, a ship using these crystals will likely not be operating unbonused; it will likely be flying with significant improvements to its mining cycle time. So, while an unbonused strip miner cycle takes 180 seconds and a tech II A type crystal would last around 8 hours, strip miners fitted to a max-skilled [[Hulk]] <ref group=Note name=Hulk />, enhanced by a Mining Laser Optimization Charge from a [[Rorqual]] <ref group= Note name=Rorqual />, can cycle in as little as ~73 seconds, thus reducing the crystals lifespan to a mere 141 minutes.
