There's this one hull that can be fit to mine pretty well and fit a great tank.
You may have heard of it, it's called the Rokh. "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

Archdaimon wrote:Hi Goons. Yeah I heard of the Rokh. It is also a battleship designed for combat able to fit mining lasers (wtf?). My point is. If this was a sandbox and I spent 100 bil isk designing a better tanked mining ship I am pretty sure I'd find investors pretty fast. I mean I would almost be able to find investors on this real planet called earth: http://www.economist.com/node/21553419
This is about balance - the Hulk has great mining abilities, but that comes at the expense of the ability to take damage.
It does not take much to kill a gank-fit Catalyst - one HAC/BC will take care of it quickly. "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

Vaal Erit wrote:Good point. You know there has been many additions to mining vessels with t2 macks and hulks and the orca but zero vessels dedicated to suicide ganking. This obviously needs rectifying.
I mean there should certainly be advances in suiciding ships so how about a cruiser with 8 gun hardpoints that can fit medium guns with a 60%/lvl bonus to damage. Ship costs about 5m and after firing dies in 20s, no matter what!
I'm down with this. "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

you don't know what "being aligned" means do you
it means moving at 75% or more of your maximum speed in the direction you wish to warp
every ship can instantly enter warp by doing this, from frigates to titans "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

the problem with mining in a rokh is that you have to stagger lasers and move minerals more often
this does not suit their afk playstyle "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

Rocks aren't big enough, range on strip miners isn't high enough, you would need 200 bookmarks per belt or slowboat to ideal align range at the back side of a rock. It's the stupidest fail troll solution I've seen the armchair forum gang regurgitate over and over but feel free to regurgitate it again. You are only fooling yourself.
yeah 15km on strip miners is simply ~not enough~ "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

Because it is capable of outmining every possible setup of any other hull in the game? "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

also hulks are getting an indirect buff in the form of CPU rigs
not that any of you will be using anything other than cargo rigs because you feel entitled to max-yield, max cargo and max tank "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

worthless mining pond scum complained about brutixes killing their hulks and mackinaws before the insurance nerf
worthless mining pond scum now complain about catalysts killing their hulks and mackinaws after the insurance nerf (and removal of the destroyer RoF penalty)
worthless mining pond scum will continue to complain until the ability to attack ships in hisec is removed "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |

It's called "balance." You want a ship that can mine just like a Hulk with ten times the tank. That's absolutely dumb. "WeGÇÖre a professional Merc Alliance, like PL" ~ snot shot, 2012 |
