[[File:Icon Invention.png|left]]Invention is the producing of T2 BPCs using T1 BPCs (for example, you can invent a Gyrostabilzer II BPC using a Gyrostabilizer I BPC).

The base materials required are a T1-variant BPC of the T2 item you wish to produce, and two different types of Datacore. Inputting all these into the Industry window results in a chance-based job, where you have a possibility of receiving a T2 BPC (and a possibility of failure). Improving your science skills will improving your invention chance. | ||
Invention is also used in T3 production - specificaly by inventing T3 ship and subsystem BPCs from Ancient Relics (ancient relics look very much like blueprints, except they have a yellow background instead of a blue one). Again, Datacores are also required. | |||
The majority of T2 items on the market are produced through Invention. A few years ago CONCORD auctioned a number of T2 BPOs, but these are no longer available. The few T2 BPOs still owned by capsuleers sometimes exchange hands for vast amounts of ISK. | The majority of T2 items on the market are produced through Invention.
