Just wondering why the Rorqual has yet to receive any love? (The orca as well, and freighters)
Or is the citadel patch only for combat related capitals?

What does this basically mean:
Buy. Rorquals. Now.
Why?
Cause right now (well, not right now, but last time I checked, about a week ago) there are Rorquals on contract for 2b ISK. They Insure for about 500m, and pay on loss for about 2.3b. This means if you buy one for 2b, mine with it, make 200m ISK in ore before you get blown up, you're isk-neutral.
Add some modules, you're at 500m until it's paid off. Mackinaws currently make 50-60m an hour, and i don't expect the Rorqual to be much short of that, maybe even far above it.
So your Rorqual will have to mine a few hours until it's technically paid off, just remember to blow it up before the insurance expires and board a new one. |

found one for 1.8bil now so u can make more isk if u buy it . but to be honest with these new mining drons rorquals will turn to capital barge which will not increase demand who will want to mine in rorqual solo in 0.0 belt this change wont make evryone go buy rorqual to lose it to random gangs |

Quote:Powerful new medium range mining foreman bonuses That sounds to me like a buff to on-grid boost, while off-grid boost stays the same. I hope its coming to the orca too.

Like noone will ever use carriers solo in an anomaly. I, too, believe we will never, ever see Rorquals in belt after your adequate and well-thought explanation.
No, seriously: You'll see them in the dozens once people get their alts trained for them.

This thought bubble of mining fighters and super resists was first brought up at EDU 2014. It was laughed at then, It was brought up again as 'a good idea' at EDU 2015. I spoke to CCP MIMIC at the time stating that no Rorq pilot would willingly take it outside a POS shield and with Fozzies continued campaign against off grid boosts they are now useless until med citadels are spammed across static belts to provide teathering for the Rorq allowing them to once again provide full boosts. I see it as another attempt to destroy the deeper levels of the the game. I know I will be pointedly asking for the use or lack of use metrics at EDU this year. As usual adapt or wait til CCP fix it/revert it.
Why a switch on/off?
Because the new animation doesn't add anything to gameplay and it's graphically annoying.
In other words, it's worse than bad: it's useless.
Simple as that. - Kina Ayami

i don't think i like the idea of the invulnerability.
right now the only way to tactically use a blops is using it to disrupt enemy industry(sure you can drop them on anyone for the lawls but that is not the most effective use)
this ability while giving the rorq some use completely makes null mining fleets immune to blops gangs

you will just have to bring more blops and capitals with you. but who knows. you might find someone solo mining in a rorqual and then you found the golden piggy.

With blops you need to get in and out before the support fleet shows upthat's the whole point. this abulity forces you to be useless until the support fleet shows.
Even if done one is in a solo Rorqual nothing can be done as it can still go invulnerable until its support shows up
If I had the numbers to blob with capitals I wouldn't need to resort to using blops

Any news on rorquals?
CCP said that they are willing to change them in summer. Few days left until summer and we still don't know details except excavation drones. |

Yeah just excavation drones are the main thing. Well and a little mod that makes industrials on grid with him invulnerable but you would of found that out with a simple search and I'm sure you did one of those.

Saw that someone posted this and was like > Lugh, what are you talking about, I made this post before the made the summer update thingy... then I saw that you probably meant to quote Fasyakius...
Come on CCP gives up tin-foil fantasies.

I heard about drones and highslot module with invulnerability, but will these drones affected by mining boosts? Will CCP change rorqual weight that it will pass into c2-c3 wh? (CCP mentioned about that on fanfest). Also they were talking about another special modules for rorqual - not only invulnerable weapon. |

I highly doubt these drones will some how take boosts where none other do.
and if they do let them move in c2/c3 i hope they also change the ore sites to need to be scanned again

I would rather have a capital deployable mining platform (similar to MTU etc.) that can only be deployed by Rorqual and a smaller version of it by Orca. They could easily make this comparable to a cap mining drone yield with decent range and it's own storage. I honestly rarely use drones anymore for mining as I keep combats out anyways.. That's just me though. |

Your idea would either be a mining "sentry" drone, which requires toe Rorq to be on grid, so it's just a "normal" mining drone (even tho for a Rorqual), or it's not and you can deploy multiple of those, which would make the Rorq pretty op cause it could drop unlimited amounts of those.

Yeah. Saw they postponed it. Looks like, industrial array, rorqual and other mining ships all about the same time. I just hope they really make the barges and exhumers shine more.
Maybe extend out the training to get into barges from the mining frigates a little more if they make them any more powerful.
Plus I still hope for BS sized mining ships. Three flavors please. Ice, gas and ore.
