NPC's will still seed the market, EvE players will then have to undercut the price of the NPC's ... Simple. The price *should* never go above the NPC price, end result being we get cheaper items.
The economics of this will be at the EvE side with material costs etc.

The economics of this will be at the EvE side with material costs etc. Temporary yes. But not permanently. Eventually the npc supply will need to be removed and finally let the players have total control of the supply.
Only if manufacturing is allowed in dust, which I god hope will never happen. The dust market has to have a base price and a base supply. Until mercs can affect the resource supply needed, either by capturing Planetary Infrastructure or whatever, the EvE economy will prevail over dust.
As for material costs on the EvE side, not really an issue, the price can be high if the amount of end product is high too i.e. 5000 GEK's for a single BP run. The sale price of those GEK's will be reduced.

There is nothing stopping you, the "cost" is to your EvE char.

I'm sure CCP are aware of that, I know I will be doing the same. CCP are happy though, they get you paying/playing for your EvE subscription.

Cat Merc wrote:Why shouldn't Dust mercs be capable of manufacturing?
To me it just goes against the whole lore of mercs and why they were created. I can't imagine being a dust-bear and mining/collecting resources! It's not for the console either. The whole indy system in New Eden is way too complex to translate to a console IMHO.
- Buying BPO's - Researching them to make them better (use less material and quick production) - Making BPC's (copies) - Getting the resources (mining?? PI??) - Doing invention to get proto grear??? - Getting invention materials to actually perform invention! - Spread sheets for the entire chain! - Etc.

I can see why they've waited so long to merge the economies in any way though, what with all the different ways to abuse it.
Agreed. Going back to your other point though, whats the difference in me buying the BPO, mining all the resources, Moon Mining and reacting the more exotic stuff and then using PI to get the missing parts? It's what I've done for years in EvE to get "free" ships. The cost to me is my time.
