Expensive is relative... Some might find a skill costing 15 mil expensive while others don't blink twice at buying a titan skillbook...

Racial Titans
Racial Carriers
Racial Dreads
Fighters
Captial Ships (Maybe?)
Nanite Control

I'd assume Outpost construction would be fairly expensive too, although I don't know.

Also add:

Sovereignty - 450m
Tycoon - 90m
Doomsday Operation - 225m

The four skills that were seeded for a short period of time but never actually implemented are probably the most rare and expnesive skills in the game. A few Astronautic Engineering skills, as Mona pointed out, are still available at a price of around 1.0 billion. I have not seen the other three offered for sale recently: Salvage Drone Operation, Mobile Factory Operation and Mobile Refinery Operation. I suspect that these books have all found their way into the hands of wealthy collectors...

This

Salvage Drone Operation i got from the agent giving it out when it was seeded.
Astronautic Engineering i got of the Jita market for 265m
Mobile Refinery Operation cost me 500m from a contract
Mobile Factory Operation was the hardest and most expensive to get at a cost of 2.5 Billion.

The most expensive skillbooks in game are the Titan skills @ 4,950,000,000 Billion.
Thats 19.8 Billion for all 4 which is 2/3 the cost of owning all skills in game

That's given me an idea.

You know that a regular idea bandied about is the ability to recover implants from corpses - how about the ability to extract a random skill book out of a corpse?

This does have the 'unfortunate' side effect of making Tripoli's corpse the most valuable in the game.

---

Actually I'm not sure it would, I mean, I'm sure someone has a higher Average skill price than trip.

Add to that the fact that I've never been killed, either. Not only valuable, but rare.

---

For better or for worse, Tripoli's corpse is worth quite a bit even without skills. Right up there with Ricdic maybe?

Ok, maybe not that much....

That... that has to be one of the most awesome ideas I have seen in these forums in a long time. Very Niven-esq.
There could be a whole 'corpse salvaging' skill tree... or even a POS module... produce implants, skillbooks, metals, hood oriniments....

*whines at CCP* I want this!!!!!

Oops, forgot about the Titan skills, probably because I'm still a few weeks away from being able to train them. I don't think any of the four misseeded skills that I mentioned above bring 5 billion each (yet )
