DUST Search - SP payout still not suitable with 750k cap

In reply to Stabbey since that tuesday that sp gains changed, ambush is better for sp now.
You can get 5k sp in a 7 minute match.
Usually more like 3kish for trying.

Simply put 40 minutes
40 minute dom = 5ksp
40/7 = 6(36)
6 x 3 = 18k sp (2k sp a match is afk doing nothing numbers, even then 6 x 2 is 12ksp)
These are non booster numbers.

So like you can get 5ksp or 18k sp for the same amount of time.
Even more if you can manage 5k per ambush, not to mention way more isk than dom.
lets say for that one dom 200kisk, but with 6 ambush, thats 150k x 6 = 900k isk

Just my experience but look at the clock yourself, get a paper and pencil and jot down your numbers.
Compare the time and sp from one dom. Then run nonstop ambushes in that time, and compare the two.

Really sad that before you could get 12k sp and 500k isk in one dom, but not anymore.
I used to be the person that liked seeing that big number at the end of a dom.
I loved seeing 500k isk and 12k sp. But after that tuesday numbers changed.
After doing the math, nonstop ambush gives more.

Second week, SP payout were around 4/5k for a normal match (1000wp avg) and going up to 7/8k for a good match. Third week, just like second week. Revert SP payouts to first week level for this unofficial event of 750k cap.

Higher the first week and then less now. Hell even the first week with a lot of playtime I only managed to get about half way through the 750k cap. This week I only managed about 100k of the 750k cap because FW has been so slow. "Also I think knives are a good idea, big f**k-off shiny ones" "Guns for show, Knives for a pro" MY LIFE FOR AIUR!

That honestly seems pretty reasonable. One of my friends just started playing dust. He asked how much Lifetime SP I had and I told him 40m, And he was saying he bets he can reach it because of the 750k a week. The cap being so high is a pretty good motivation for new players to try to reach a competitive level faster. Sentinel/Commando

In my opinion 750k with current sp payouts are better than 190k that was for around 2days. This cap should stay, and boosters should make you earn more sp per battle to achive cap faster, not giving additional sp to whole sp pool. Caldari Loyalist Markiplier fan.

Also sp for doing a battle sucks reguardless if you try or do nothing. Therefor I think you should get more for tring rather than stand around doing nothing. I also would like more sp since cap is impossible for me since I work and have school.

It is because Rattati left is brain in his car when he was having a meeting with the CPM. They were talking about Triple Boosters and Rattati decided to increase the cap to 750k because he didn't know that Boosters don't accelerate SP and instead give you more. Because of the potential "I bought 3 30 day boosters because of the SP change!", they are keeping it for one month after which they will probably change it. My guess is that 750k stays and Boosters will just make you cap faster. Removes one of the last bit of "paying for power" in DUST and puts it at: * Veterans will play and not care about capping. If they want to push for a specific skill, they can grind it out faster than they could before. * Grinders will grind because they are Grinders. * New Players can catch up faster to that 8 million SP that we say is Proto for a single role by grinding it out or getting Boosters. * It is not expected that everyone will cap out EVERY week unless they work really hard or pay to make it slightly easier.
