Mission lead-in

Caldari version
Alright, now for your final task.
Yes, indeed. So what is this "special job" you mentioned, Ochishi Veitai?
Alright, yes, our special project. You've proven skilfulsic at business, but now I want to test your capability for pure science. Mission briefing

Mission briefing

Minmatar version

You've proven skillful at piloting and in acquisitions, but now I want to test your capability for pure science. The blueprint, datacores, and data interface that I gave you earlier can be used for converting a particular item into a new one that's far more advanced. Do this for me, give me the new item, and you will be rewarded -- not only with what I can give you in recompense, but also with experience that'll come in handy time and time again once you set off on your own.

Note: You'll need to find an accessible invention installation before you can proceed with the invention process; this may mean you'll have to travel to a different station in another system. Once you have invented the new Perpetual Motion Unit II blueprint using the items you've received, use that blueprint to manufacture 1 unit of Perpetual Motion Unit II, and then bring that item to me.

This is an important mission, which will have significant impact on your faction standings.

Overview and Objectives

The following objectives must be completed to finish the mission.

Bring Item objective

Acquire these goods:

Rewards

Reminder

If you've forgotten how the invention system works, just open your Tutorials interface and go through the "Science & Industry" set. That'll cover the basics, but keep in mind that you're inventing now, not manufacturing -- so once you've opened up the manufacturing screen, remember to select "Invention" from the Activity drop-down menu. Once the job finishes, simply open up the Science & Industry screen again, press the "Deliver" button, and the item will appear in your hangar.

Completed - Here is the invention you requested, Agent
Minmatar: - Ah. Well done once again! You are a fine servant of the Republic. Carry on as you've done for me, and you'll go far.
Caldari: - Brilliant! Name, you will go far, I assure you. Best of luck in the future, capsuleer! And do drop by for a drink sometime, won't you?


Variations

The Caldari mission briefing text differs only slightly:

The blueprint, datacores, and data interface that I gave you earlier can be used for converting a particular item into a new one that's far more advanced. Do this for me, give me the new item, and you will be rewarded not only with what I can give you, but also with experience that'll come in handy time and time again once you begin your career in earnest.
