Hi all, So, from the looks of it, CCP are trying to get mining boosts on grid, which I would be quite happy about. However, the problem is the Rorq, mainly as it stands, people will NOT put them in belts or anoms, even with that stupid 5 min invul modual that CCP seem to be throwing about. The best way to get Rorq's into the belt/anom, in my opinion, would be to change 3 things.
1) Get rid of the indy core, make it a flat % bonus that can be improved by skills.
2) Introduce a new level of compression that would sit between the current level that you get from POS's, that the Rorq can do on the fly without the core. Instead of compressing 100 to 1, make it 50 to 1. You could then compress it at a POS to the current level.
3) Reduce the number of componants that is required to build the hull by 50%, litrally, half it, the hull is far to expensive, it's not worth the risk/reward to dump it in the belt, bring it in line with carriers, seeing as CCP wants it to act like a carrier with the mining drones.
Another way to reduce the cost of building the hull, that wouldn't be quite as drastic, would be to get rid of the clone bay, however, I dont know how that would effect people living in wormholes, so i'm not sure about suggesting it. Any thoughts, or has all this been suggested before and im just bad at searching the forums? |

It would be silly making changes to the POS's when they're getting removed anyway. If you want a station with good industrial capabilities, you'll have to wait for the Upwell industrial arrays being introduced sometime in Fall.
Currently I believe the idea CCP has for the Rorqual could work, simply because they listened to us by giving the Rorqual a minor heavy mining drone swarm.

Replace POS with Citadel, thats my bad. The problem is the core and the cost to build them, in my opinion, giving the Rorq a mining drone swarm is a brillient thing, but it wont promote them going into the belt/anom to give on grid boosts. Unless the mining drone swarm does some crazy yield like 10k m3 per cycle. |

So instead of tweaking an existing ship to better fit their vision, you want CCP to instead create a whole other type of item for each of the rocks, get rid of the transform animation for the Rorqual and just make it cheaper and shittier? |

Counter proposal:
- turn it into a FAX-like ship
- beef up its stats so it can properly tank and RR like a FAX
Now you have the makings of a more nasty setup than currently exists: A combat-fit Rorqual supported by combat-fit Skiffs and a Scimitar.
How did you Veterans start?

Getting rid of the industrial mod would be great. |
