So i was mining in a .5 system when i came across this.
mining machariel
Should i have blown his position, so that he would be ganked?
Because if you are asking me, mining in a machariel is asking to be ganked. |

true but then you would use an actual mining ship and not a machariel. |

Just more proof that the Mach is imba.
Plus, we should all be glad that mining lasers don't have falloff, otherwise that Mach would be sitting next to the station when mining the asteroid field.

We have seen the mining titan, I have personally seen a Chimera in a 0.4 belt mining with drones, we have also seen multiple billion isk officer fit mission boats that would perform better with a simple T2 fit, why not a mining mach? I'm bettting on stupid. . |

That would be at greatly recuded yield. You do know how falloff works, right? It would be balanced against the Mach's small cargohold. You may get reduced yield from falloff, but you're right next to the station and thus can unload ore quickly. Plus, instead of fitting cargohold expanders, you can fit CPUs for additional MLUs. On the down side, the station hugging Mining Mach wouldn't benefit from mining drones.
Of course, we would need to run Teh Numbers(tm) to see what the breaking point is between falloff loss and loss from traveling to/from the field and the impact of mining drones.
To the spreadsheets!

Hmm... if this was in low-sec I'd say that he's trying to scare of potential gankers who will simply say "Oh crap a Mach, RUN AWAY!" before they bother to look too close.
But in 0.5... well, look at it like this: 0.5 is miner ganker paradise, because that's the lowest CONCORD response time this side of high-sec. But this guy/gal, are they going to get ganked? Not unless Mittani himself is leading the squad. This is someone can truly AFK mine without a care in the world.
Then again maybe they were just bored. I'm betting on the "Materials for War Prep" theory and will expand it further: The pilot probably doesn't have one SP devoted to anything past Mining 1... and wants to keep it that way. EvE Forum Bingo |
