Telling me to pay attention... Iv cleaned several belts with my orca. I don't think you've ever even flown one. You stay on top of the rocks, not orbiting them like a venture. 5 clicks per 15 minutes, all roids within 1-3km away, it works plenty fine. I can sit in a belt for hours. Is it a hulk mining rate? No. Its not suppose to be. But I empty my ore hold once a day. When theres no more rocks near, you use the tactical grid to move up the belt a smidge. I think I do well for myself considering standard skills and only using t2 drones.
All this in addition to being able to boost other miners? These changes are amazing. People whined about the orca and rorq being off grid and useless, stating theres nothing that could be done to make them worth using in belt, and now we got people whining about them being TOO good. Sheesh. |

Actually I was talking about paying attention to your distance to the roid not telling you to pay attention as an insult. As for your dig, I have an Orca mate and have had one since 2011, I went out and tested it, see earlier where I said my mining drone skills were sub optimal, the comment is more to focus on the AFK nature of this approach that people will moan about, if you go AFK and leave it to it then your yield will suffer, you should be operating your Orca to move close to the roids being mined which is why I made that point. I am going to sort out T2 drones and have some fun.
Orca's are interesting and I think that they are set up about right, people are moaning about them because they are an effort to kill, but they should be.

11 other ship there - not unusual.
But wait -- Orcas only.
Each of them AFK drone-mining his own asteroid....
That what you wanted CCP ? You should have guessed..
BTW..all those Orcas belonged to one guy only..
I nearly got used to the Ice mining Borg Fleet in Agal. You know that guy in his Drake Navy watching over his 25 Skiff Bot Fleet.
But now that really sucks.
CCP.. good job feeding the AFKs and Bots..
And i really start getting positive feelings for CODE.

Here we go, another busy body worrying about others, I don't like code at all but at least they take actions, but your a Mrs. Kravits plain and simple.
Busy body when they see others using their fleets ----> https://youtu.be/-mdFctlvB3w |

Can you link the post in this thread where someone is moaning about that or are you projecting again. For the record, I use an Orca as well and it just got extremely more useful for the stuff I use it for (not mining)
the Code ALWAYS wins

But in high sec... If I scope T2 mining drone, which was not mine, will I get suspect flag? Cause bumping afk orcas to scope their few milions worth T2 drones can be serios source of income even if you need to bump orcas 60 km away... They have to be blown up or forced to warp away if you want their drones.
If you want to pop one, you're looking at ~500k EHP if it's maxed tanked.

Yeah you have a point, I thought it would be that by implication but I could be wrong, let us see if it turns into a it is not fair as I cannot gank them or kill them when people drop to NPC corps to avoid war decs.
Still if you run them AFK they are not that efficient, but it does allow you to run them AFK, I am testing on a roid which will be the last of its type in the belt, I am interested to see if they switch, that should be something that CCP apply to them to block AFK play. And that is the case, Fiery Kernite, after it was mined out they did nothing..., so good.

It can still be ganked. That is the truth. But CCP should learn about their game, not to ban people who did not deserved it.
Every part of a game helps to tell a story =ƒôò =ƒÜÇ
