===Introduction ===
 
 
Welcome to the High Sec War Class. This class is meant to teach you about High Sec wars, and how they will affect your future at Eve University.
 
 
This course is designed primarily for players who have just joined Eve University, and do not know what a High Sec war is, and how to deal with one.
 
 
Over the next hour, I will explain what a War Dec is, how they work, how your daily activities will be affected, and how to avoid War Targets.
 
 
''(Instructor should then introduce himself or herself - covering relevant experience level and background.)''
 
 
We have a few ground rules for this class:
 
* Please configure your Mumble settings for "Push to Talk" if you have not already done so.
 
* Feel free to type any questions in the Lecture.E-Uni chat channel as we proceed - I will try to answer your questions as they come during the class. [At the end of my lecture, we'll open Mumble for any further questions or general discussion.]
 
* There will be an optional practical at the end.
 
 
Everyone ready?  OK, then - let's begin....
 
 
=== What is a High Sec War? ===
 
 
*A High Sec war is when a Corporation or Alliance pays ISK to CONCORD to become legally engageable to another Corporation or Alliance.
 
**Being legally engageable means that you will show up as flashy red to a member of the opposing corporation, and vice versa (With default or Uni settings). You can attack them in any space, and take no repercussions, except for the normal aggression timers.
 
 
*The Uni will most likely be at war when you join, or will be decced soon.
 
 
=== How do wars affect you? ===
 
 
* There are 3 mandatory items and 2 optional items needed for invention.
 
* If you look on the "Info" for the BPC, there will be an Invention tab under the Bill of Materials. This tab will show all the needed items for the job. It does not include the optional items.
 
 
* Mandatory Items:
 
** Blueprint copy (mandatory item)
 
*** You must have a T1 blueprint copy (BPC) of the T2 item you wish to create. If the Invention job is successful, this BPC will be changed from T1 to T2. If the job is unsuccessful, the BPC will be destroyed.
 
*** The Material Efficiency and Production Efficiency of the BPC does not matter for an Invention job. The only attribute that matters is the number of runs on the BPC. This will directly affect the number of runs of the T2 BPC.
 
** Datacores (mandatory items)
 
*** Each invention job will require two types of datacores. The number of datacores needed depends on the size of the object created. Small modules only require one datacore of each type while battleships require 32 of each type.
 
*** To learn how to acquire datacores, please attend the [[Datacore Farming]] 101 class.
 
** Data Interface (mandatory item)
 
*** Each job will require a data interface. These items are only used to start the Invention process and are not consumed. That means a single interface can start an infinite number of jobs. So, if you ever decide to go into T2 manufacturing on a large scale, you only need to purchase a single set of interfaces.
 
*** There are different sets of interfaces for ships, ship equipment, and rigs. Each race has its own set of interfaces.  The interface name has two parts, the Racial title, and the object type.  For Racial title, Amarr use the Occult, Caldari the Esoteric, Gallente the Incognito, and Minmatar the Cryptic.  For object type, ships use the Ship Data Interface, Modules use the Data Interface, and Rigs use the Tuner Data Interface.  So, for example, to invent on Caldari ships, you would use the Esoteric Ship Data Interface.
 
*** For reference http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Invention#Data_Interfaces
 
 
* You must use the same racial interface as the racial encryption method skill needed. For example, 1MN Afterburner invention requires Minmatar Encryption Methods. Therefore you need to have the Cryptic Data Interface for invention.
 
 
* Optional Items:
 
** Base Item (optional item, but recommended)
 
*** One optional item that can be included is a base item - a "named" Tech 1 item of the type you are trying to invent.
 
*** These items increase the chance of a successful invention job significantly. The "Meta Level" of an item is the key factor.
 
*** You can use Meta Level 1 to 4 ("named" tech I items) as a base item for invention - Meta 0 items have no effect, and you cannot use higher Meta Level items than Meta Level 4.  The higher the Meta Level of the base item, the better chances of success.  Like datacores, this base item will be consumed during the Invention process, whether you are successful or not.
 
** Decryptors (optional item, recommended for big expensive invention jobs, like T2 ships)
 
*** Decryptors are an optional item that can be added to the invention process. Decryptors affect the invention chance of the process as well as the material efficiency, production efficiency, and number of runs of the created T2 bpc. Decryptors will be consumed during the Invention process, successful or not.
 
*** When using no decryptor the base values for a T2 BPC are the following: Runs: 1 (ships) 10 Mods, ME: -4, PE: -4. Add the values from the decryptor to the base values to calculate the final outcome of the T2 BPC.
 
*** Excellent guide to decryptors (including new ones introduced in the Odyssey update): http://eve-prosper.blogspot.com/2013/07/everything-you-never-wanted-to-know.html

=== How to Continue Daily Activities During a War ===
 
 
* For a step-by-step walkthrough of the invention mechanics, see this link: http://www.eve-wiki.net/index.php?title=Invention_Walkthrough
 
 
* First, acquire all the requirements that you need for invention.
 
** Check the Invention tab on your Tech I blueprint for all the required skills and materials.
 
** Acquire a blueprint copy (BPC) for your Tech I item - make the number of production runs on this BPC to the maximum possible.  (For example, on a Power Diagnostic System I BPC, the maximum number of runs is 300.)
 
** Train the skills to the recommended levels.
 
** Buy (or manufacture) the required items: BPC, data interface, datacores.
 
** Acquire the base item (named meta 1-4 item) and/or decryptor, if you wish to use optional items to boost your chance of success.
 
 
* Transport all required items to a station (or POS) that has public research labs.
 
** For example, Poteque Pharma Biotech Research station at Reset VII-11 provides public research labs.
 
** Note that the UNI research POS does not provide support for invention jobs as game mechanics do not allow corp inventions to be installed at an alliance PoS.
 
 
* Select your Tech I BPC, right click on it, and select "Invention".
 
 
* Complete the invention research job dialogue box:
 
** Installation: select the research lab that will conduct the invention job.
 
** Blueprint: select the Tech I BPC for this invention job.
 
** Input/Output: show the location(s) for all required items needed for the job, and where you would like the Tech II BPC to be deposited, if successful.
 
** Base Item: if you include an optional meta 1-4 item, select it here.
 
** Decryptor: if you include a decryptor, select it here.
 
** Output Type: if you can produce one of several types of Tech II BPCs from this invention job, select the desired output here.  For example, conducting research on a Gallente Atron frigate can produce either an Ares or Taranis interceptor, depending on what you select.
 
 
* Start the job and wait for the outcome.  You can monitor the status of your invention jobs by clicking the Science & Industry button on your [[NeoCom|NeoCom]], and select the 'Jobs' tab, then pressing the "Get Jobs" button. If you click on your job listing, the dialog will show useful things, including how long the job has to complete. This updates in real time, so you can leave the dialog up if you want a second-by-second countdown timer. Wait times for invention jobs range from about an hour for simple modules, up to several days for large ships.
 
 
* When you select a completed job (from the Science & Industry listing on your [[NeoCom|NeoCom]]), there will be a Deliver button at the bottom of the dialog. Click that to have the product of your job delivered to you.
 
 
* When delivered, you'll get either a "You were successful!" or a "You failed." message.
 
** Items are consumed by the invention process, whether successful or not.
 
 
* If successful, you'll get a Tech II item BPC.
 
** Tech II module BPCs have runs of 10 items, unless modified by a decryptor.
 
** Tech II ship BPCs have runs of 1 item, unless modified.
 
** ME and PE on these Tech II BPCs are awful, so you'll have higher than normal requirements for manufacturing, including some specialty items.  These items can be manufactured through Planetary Interaction, or in POS in null sec or low-sec space that conduct moon mining.  But most starting inventors simply acquire them using buy orders in trade hubs.
 
 
=== How to Avoid War Targets, and Escaping Them. ===
 
 
* Ultra-useful invention chance calculator: http://games.chruker.dk/eve_online/invention_chance.php
 
 
* The chance for a succesful invention is calculated by this formula: Invention_Chance = Base_Chance * (1 + (0.01 * Encryption_Skill_Level)) * (1 + ((Datacore_1_Skill_Level + Datacore_2_Skill_Level) * (0.1 / (5 - Meta_Level)))) * Decryptor_Modifier
 
** Base Chance
 
*** Modules and Ammo have a base probability of 40%
 
*** Frigates, Destroyers, Freighters and Skiff have a base probability of 30%
 
*** Cruisers, Industrials and Mackinaw have a base probability of 25%
 
*** Battlecruisers, Battleships and Hulk have a base probability of 20%
 
*** In summary, it's not difficult to get a good chance of success for modules, but progressively more difficult for ships as their size increases.  This is why investing in some decryptors is a good idea for Tech II ship invention jobs.
 
** (Racial) Encryption Skill Level
 
*** 0.01 x Encryption Skill Level (so something between 0.01 and 0.05)
 
** Science Skills (one for each of the required datacores)
 
*** 0.02 x Combined Level of Advanced Science Skills (so something between 0.04 and 0.2)
 
** Tech I Meta Level Item (optional)
 
*** Metalevel 0 item does not improve invention probability
 
** Decryptor (optional)
 
*** See table above for probability multiplier
 
 
* For example, using the invention chance calculator, enter these values:
 
** Let's say we are inventing Power Diagnostic System II module blueprint copies, so select a Base chance value of 40%
 
** Enter 3 for the level of your encryption skill - a moderate level of proficiency
 
** Enter 4 for each of the two science skill levels - for a PDS, that would be High Energy Physics and Quantum Physics
 
** Enter Metalevel 4 for our base item - for a PDS, this would be a "Beta Reactor Control: Diagnostic System I"
 
** Enter None for decryptor
 
** Press the "Recalculate" button.  The probability of success is... 74.16%
 
** Now enter Metalevel 0 for the base item and recalculate.  The probability of success is now... 47.79% - this illustrates the value of using higher meta level base items in invention jobs.
 
** You can experiment with different skill levels and items to see how the probability changes.  Use this to determine the levels of skills you wish to train, and whether you want to invest in meta level items or decryptors.
 
 
* Note that the following factors have no impact on the probability of invention success:
 
** Using meta level 0 base items (as previously described)
 
** Material Level of the input BPC
 
** Productivity Level of the input BPC
 
** Licensed runs of the input BPC (though it can affect output BPC runs)
 
** How attractive, charming or brilliant you are  :-)
 
 
* A few helpful guidelines:
 
** Encryption skill affects the chance of success moderately - training up to level 3 is useful - beyond that, it produces only very slight improvement
 
** Science skills affect success most significantly - train up to at least level 4, and eventually to level 5 if you are going to be producing significant amounts of certain items
 
** Higher meta-level Tech I items can also affect success significantly - while optional, use meta 3 or 4 items (when affordable) if you can.  You can place buy orders in the market to get some of these at very low prices from mission-runners who want to dump their loot.
 
** Decryptors can virtually guarantee success, but can also be very expensive - in general, use these only for big items like Tech II ships.
 
** To maximize profits from invention, you need to minimize your investment costs.  This means using buy orders to purchase invention items in the market: datacores, meta items, decryptors.  You'll also want to shop around to different stations to find the most affordable blueprint copying and invention research labs - they all charge fees for their services, and some more than others.
 
** A very good invention profitability calculator: http://www.eve-market-guide.com/
 
** An easy to use tool for analyzing the profitability of T2 invention and manufacturing: http://bp.cherry.frubar.net/
 
** Another helpful tool for analyzing the potential value of invention jobs is Eve-MEEP: http://sites.google.com/site/evemeep/
 
** As you gain more experience in invention, you can experiment with different investments in your mix of skills, meta level items, and decryptors.  Many inventors tire quickly of depending on public resources for blueprint copying, which are always in short supply.  If you are going to be a serious producer of Tech II items, you will eventually want to establish a research POS, so that you always have lab slots available for copying and invention jobs.  But that is the subject of another entire class....
