I thought for sure they would just refund the skill and make you do it again. Kinda sucks for the people that were only paying attention to the amount of SP they would have left and didn't want to go Prototype. Jeez... Look at it like this: You got a free SP loan that no player of any other suit is able to get. You can use proto Amarr Scout suits while other people are still grinding out the SP for their chosen proto suit. CCP's fix isn't a penalty. It's a free loan with few detriments or downsides. (Not nearly as damaging when CCP was bonking people with negative ISK.) Didn't happen to me, just stating that I thought there was going to be a refund for Amarr light suits. For someone that has lots of millions of SP, the change isn't that huge of a deal because they already have everything they need to use the suit (weaponry, upgrades, etc). But I can imagine people with 5 million SP that weren't paying attention to the level, only the cost and put the points into it. Being negative for two or three weeks would suck massively. I am still surprised they did that. I was honestly expecting a refund for the Amarr skill to avoid the possibility of this happening.
If it's really an issue for people, they can file a support ticket and ask the GMs nicely if they'll consider it.

Blame it all on the Dev's... The GM's and Dev's have some kind of rivalry going on where they barely communicate with each other. Will boost the GM's self esteem.

That's not making an informed decision. Then there should be no problem He's just mad that he spent SP into a role he's not used to/doesn't enjoy. |

You'll earn SP as normal, but you won't be able to spend any till you get back to a positive number. If people cry about it enough, are you going to set them back 0.0 SP just like with the hundreds of millions, if not billions, of ISK you released into the market after 1.0 and the beginning of PC with the botched buyback?

You'll earn SP as normal, but you won't be able to spend any till you get back to a positive number. This is of some concern to me, and I will sound petty, but it primarily would have been a discerning factor in my choice of post 1.8 skills. In skilling I went into Amarr Scout Ak.0 without question assuming that all of my SP was spent into the suit......had almost another 1/3 additional SP been shown to be consumed I do not think I would have skilled into Amarr Scout so hastily. You can tell me to HTFU I can accept that...... but in some ways I feel cheated yet again and would sincerely like another crack at SP allocation regarding Dropsuit Command. Kidding right? Nope honestly how I feel about the matter. I by my very nature am not a complex numbers person. I cannot run the level of internal calculations that many other do. As such it simply did not occur to me at the time that any of the total SP values I was spending to skill into the suit were below the other racial suit values. Perhaps unlike others who are numerically gifted and I am so very jealous, I might have noticed the SP values, made necessary calculations and worked through the SP totals. I am not demanding anything. I am resolved with my dumbass decision.....but I wish I had known before I skilled into it that more SP than I had intended to skill would be after the fact removed from my character.....for something I thought I was buying..... kind of feels like the Amarr FW combat pack. Blurb mentioned Gold suits but I never received any....nor did other spenders..... and the Gold was after the fact removed from the products description. And additional 700+ SP has been removed from my character, I just checked.....not cool, really not cool. Please give me the option to reallocate that.....in all honesty I might even go back into scouts...... I just want the decision to do so to be informed.
So you feel cheated because you basically now have the ability to use SP you haven't actually earned? |

well it's kind of better in some ways...they get their skill before they actually have the sp to get it.
normally you'd spend the exact same amount of time sitting around without the skill waiting to use it,

This is just utter bulls***. I am soooooooo tired of the nerfing, the 1 grenade, and the negative sp I now have. Guess I'll have to find another shooter to play that's fair to all players! |

IF you wanted to skill into the amarr scout, and honestly think you have been penalized by this mistake, then good riddance.

Just putting it out there, but I did ask nicely and they refunded my SP into that skill. I don't play a lot so it was a bit of an inconvenience for me. I'm ok with the levels into the light suit so I can still use it if I want. Big thanks again to the GM's for the refund! |
