anyone have info on how to wake the damn things? me and my boys moved from a c3 into a c4 and the thing hasnt had an anomaly in allmost 3 weeks now. i accept that the things are random, but petitions have just told us to wait 6 weeks before even raising an eyebrow over the issue. 6 ****ing weeks of nothing! well thats very bloody random.
has anyone had a dry spell that long? is there any way of breaking a dry spell? or do we have to move to another system? it seems to me ccp dont want people staying put in one system, in which case why let us anchor pos's here...
the thought was raised that because our system has no anomaly ship effects (we came from a smartbomb enhancing c3 into a neutral c4) it may be a less desirable system with very limited spawns, any truth to that in others experiences? |

The way the respawn mechanics work is that when someone finished the site it respawns immediately somewhere else in a similar class system. The problem you have is that ur in a Class 4 and they are not as populated as the other classes so not many sites get run and therefore dont respawn somewhere else. If you are looking to run c4 sites ur best bet would be to get a different system with a static C4 exit and then every day just find that wormhole and jump through to run sites. When the system is clear you close ur static c4 and scan down the new one and so you get infinate c4 sites to run.

Any truth to what I've heard from those who live in WH's that the mere placement of a POS reduces the spawns in that particular WH? |

no truth to that as far as we are aware

Thank you.
Perhaps it is their impression based on them just doing the complexes in their level of system and having to wait for others to find, and complete, the follow-up spawns in similar leveled systems? This thread has answered some questions for me - thanks.

How do you see if an WH exit in a system is a static type?

wrong, ccp decreased the spawn rate in systems with POSes, it was never intended for people to stay there permanently

No they did not. You have no idea about spawn mechanics.

Quoting this.
Think of it this way. If you scan near Jita, how many wormholes or other exploration sites will you find? Now, how many will you find if you scan out in the ass end of Genesis? You'll find a lot more. This isn't because CCP coded exploration sites to spawn away from Jita.

Stay for a few days. A static WH will respawn the same WH type, so if you had a C247, when the first one collapses, a new C247 will form.

QFT.
Though my alt has pulled a few isk out of plexes in high sec less than a dozen jumps from Jita, it's usually an extremely competitive environment. I find it much more profitable just a little further away.

What keeps you from scanning for and move to spawned neighbouring WH's and clean the anomolies there?

we can pop through the holes and clear the systems, but thats not our intention. every one of us is primarily a pvp'r. what we wanted from this venture is a system to rat in and use the wh's for pvp once our system was cleared. but alas, our system is permanently clear so we have no income to replace any losses. at the moment we are waiting to move permanently, but with 4 months of fuel to haul/burn, we are sitting pretty with our thumbs firmly planted for the forseable future. tbh no ones even bothering to log in anymore. the wormholes have defeated us without a single ship loss! |

Scan your self into other WH systems and you will have plenty of pewpew either by finding a occupied system or exits out of that system to null or low sec. We do it Every day and only maybe once a week fail to find a null/lowsec exit before we find a highsec.

If you want to run C4 wormhole resources, you don't need to live in a C4. What you need is a wormhole of any type with a static hole to a C4. Then you get access to a new, random C4 system every day (or even more often if you deliberately collapse the hole when you've cleaned out the C4).
If you want to PVP, you can also look for a system with a static hole to 0.0, lowsec, or any class wormhole.

Edited by: MKV DORN on 14/11/2009 23:23:13 that is what we have been doing (going through the wh's to pvp) but naturally we are going to lose ships from time to time, so we need an income to cover that. we assumed that all j systems would have anomalies to run just to cover our costs, but as has been said before we seem to have found a system with sod all happening. using the wh's for pvp has proved extremely successful so far, our problem lies in a completely dead system, and ccp ignoring that the system is dead. were well into week 3, rapidly approaching week 4 without a single sleeper dropping in for a brew and a biccie, and we look to be stuck here for another 6 - 8 weeks as the fuel lasts. |
