As can always be expected, after a real money offer for Plex CCP must find a way of stimulating demand for Plex to give the real money buyers "value for money".
This time, CCP has gone for a 20% off Omega in the Ingame Store: UP TO 20% OFF OMEGA IN NES | EVE Online
So, no 24 month offer which seems to be the norm these days/
With Plex at 6.3m this means the ISK cost of Omega starts at 2.7 billion is per month and, if you go for the 12 month offer, is 1.5 billion ISK per month:
The savings per month are best for the 1 month Omega, and then oddly the 3 and 12 month are the same.
As ever, i will always caution against thinking the 12 month offer is the best thing since sliced bread - you have to consider what else you could have done with the ISK. But for sure, if you do normally buy the 12 month omega then this offer is a good idea.
What will i do?
I bought a 12 month Omega last June as part of the then Omega / MCT deal which was fantastic - basically meant i got the 12 month Omega for free and several billions ISK on top due to the skill farming profits.
My earliest Omega expiry is July and latest is October. So i need to start thinking about this.
I have 6 accounts to Omega in total. I normally go for the 3 month Omega. So that is 38.4 billion isk, which would be 12.8 billion isk per month cost.
I also am considering brining a new account to Omega for manufacturing. So adds another 6.4 (or 2.1 billion per month).
I have until 2 June. I will think about it but perhaps i will go for it for all accounts. That will take me into the September period where i suspect we will get more deals.
