Originally by: Jones Bones As someone who grinded these like crazy, I agree with the nerf. Too easy, not risky. Being able to select "safe" systems allows for easy farming.
Can't wait to see Navy Domi prices skyrocket \o/
The reason people didn't do these missions in the past was because it wasn't worth while to do them with out being able to choose the location. If they change that aspect, it will go right back to no one running them once more.
btw just because your corp was farming FW missions with alts doesn't mean everyone is farming like you guys were. The simple solution to stop the excessive farming is to limit the amount of missions you can pull from each agent per day.
If they feel the need to nerf the missions that would be a "reasonable" way to do it with out screwing over people that aren't ISK farming.
One of the agents gave regular 33kLP / mission. :) --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |

Originally by: EVIL SYNNs Turning 1 or 2 system in to a mission HUB... thats the problem. By being able to pick and choose where do to you missions you/and me pick the system we live in and farm the missions there.
We get our missions in ceptors, fly home jump in our HACs (yes Caldari I know your bombers) and do the missions in PvE fits. Dock job done.
What they are trying to do is force you to take that HAC out of your home system, working on the greed of players (I don't want to share my LP with you!) and get you killed.. If you don't get killed you get rewarded by LPs and the chance to undercut those LvL4 high sec mission runners.
I applaud this change.
HACS are expensive, so are SB-ers. T1 battleship fit with MWD and have an Ishkur orbit at 150km drawing aggro. For gallente you will need 1-2 eccms. --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |

Originally by: Parmenides Elea eccm does not effect npc jams.
An ishkur would get torn appart by the missile barrage from the caldari navy.
You can do the missions in a domi but jumping that 7 or 8 systems (as preposed by the nerf) is a wee more dangerous than jumping a stealth bomber 7 or 8 jumps.
Bottom line either nerf the caldari and minmi rats to allow the gal and amarr factions to run missions in stealth bombers or buff the gal and amarr rats to stop the caldari and minmi running missions in stealth bombers.
Actually 1 ECCM - on a Tempest, makes a world of difference as sometimes respawns will have godly ECM and will target the dps boat - i ****ing loath Lethal Strike. And as for Ishkur, it can tank them, provided you fly it properly.
Coreli c-type small repper, 2x t2 eanms gistii b-type 1mn mwd, 2x cap rechargers 75mm railgun 2x ccc rigs
You orbit at 50km in the case of The Reprisal, or at 150km from something stationary that is close to the objective. I haven't lost it so far. --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |

Edited by: Muad'' Dib on 26/11/2009 10:36:06 Ppl who do 70-80k lp / h have a very very refined setup, have been doing them since Apocrypha 1.5, and know all the ins and outs of these missions.
Personally i hate missions that take more than 5min with the above setup or that force you to rewarp. :) --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |

Originally by: Neo Gabriel Well whatever CCP does:
Dear CCP,
Thank you for all the LP, all these millions of LP I have left will be transformed, in due time, into billions more ISK that will finance mine and my buddies EVE career for a long time to come. We can now afford a decent Cap Fleet with Dreads and Carriers. We can fly gold plated throwaway T3, HACs and Logistics and not care about losing them. Every day I recycle a batch of those Arbalest HML to get minerals to build shuttles to Dodixie where I buy and fit new ships.
It has been a gruel month of LP farming, taking me back to my Highsec lvl4 roots. But rejoice! Salvation is at hand! December first will mark the dawn of a new age for FW lowsec! PVPers rejoice, for carebearing is no more!
Let slip the Navy Domis of war, for I will see you in Tama!
On another note, we will still farm FW missions in wolfpacks, as PERVS has been doing for a long time. So thank you for skyrocketing my LP stock value and my prospect of future earnings. I never knew I would make so much ISK in such a short amount of time.
Also thank you for getting rid of the vultures that joined FW just to farm my lp.
QQMOAR kthks bai.
Exactly what i was thinking ... word for word. o.0
PS: Apart from the last line. :) --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |

Originally by: Parmenides Elea I can catagoricly state that BYDI have never had blue status with WOLFY and as far as I am aware BYDI have never set WOLFY to blue either. Ok we we've worked together on occasion but we've never been blue.
we have worked together .... that says all ... btw as i said s****to scum
They are orange to us, and they have been red/orange for 99.99999% of the time. If you want to go with 'we have worked together', you guys have worked with gallente fw against us and DT.
Now let's get back to the subject at hand, which is how horribly overpowered these missions are - for the gallente peeps with their 30k lp / mission :).

I would argue that it's not overpowered for two reasons
1) It's a result of how much more difficult these missions are and
2) I spent lots of time convincing fellow mission runners to run them in batches of 8-15 to increase the average completion time. We saw significant increases in average LP/mission as a result. If the caldari could work together and get over camping eha and getting missions one after another then they could have the same LP/mission.
I did notice about 3 weeks ago that the average lp / mission started to drop, then increase again. If that was you, THANKS ! --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |

Yeah, but with so many trips to get missions, and 4hs to wait for a deny, it will be worth less to run them. As it is now in 2hs you can make the lp for a tier 1 navy bs, and in 3-4hs the lp for a tier 2 navy bs.
The change will probably increase the time 4-fold at least. Add to that that only Gallente FW pays 20k + lp / mission and it's a pretty good nerf. :) --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |

LMAO!! Watch out its a carebear emo-raging!! :) OH noes, now it will be risky for me to make billions from selling faction ships, people WILL still do the missions and they will be laughing at people like you who are too scared to venture into low sec for more than a few minutes. They will get rich on your emo tears mark my words.
Did u ever done a single FW mission? IF yes then u know there are only 2 - 3 mission what u can do in "few minutes" like u say. Rest is like: fly 10-15 j in one way, into blob of WT's, kill 3 ships, then another 3 ships, and structure at ending, and another 3 ships [mostly BattleShips]. Before u gonna hit one, u gonna be ganged by WT army, yeah u Can say FLY WITH FW mates. Of course but what is the point to do mission with reward 8k LP [only 3 of them are rewarded higher than 10k lp] and 2 mln reward [1+1] If u want to focus at mission tho u need like 3-4 friends [or FW mates] thats split the LP point, 2k per each means nothing at all in risk/reward graph, cause before risk was HIGH, now is the highest and reward is still good but not enough to try it alone, they should even delete pointless missions and keep only 3-4 comming out, like every lv 4 mission from specific agent in high sec oO. The safest mode is to do lv 3, but still im not gonna fly like 10-15 jumps to obtain 5k LP and spend like half hour in WT blob space. They "nerfed" missions FW, ok but then, delete some pointless one.
Warp in alt in Ishkur - hey it can even be a pirate alt ... why not ?, let him take aggro, warp in SB, kill objective. You may need to rewarp because of low-ehp on SB 1-2 times, but it's a frig, it won't take long to come back. In 5min you finish the mission for 30-40m isk. --- I smack just for myself.

Originally by: Spatiopathe the FW have the best LP-store ever, costs are 2 at 10times less expensives..so instead make war for have good reward, they just dodge war for grind and make far more isk than other rater.
The FW is loaded of heavy LP-farmer instead to be a pvp communauty. I think that pvp reward should be exclusively drop by killing ennemy militia player. Actually FW design is build for goldfarmer...
well it is more pvp then current nullsec boredom ... maybe dominion will change it
This, and amazingly enough, FW entered the capital age with these ISK farming opportunities. The ppl who already had capital alts don't care about losing their caps anymore, more have bought skills/ships and trained them, and even more are doing it right now.
If you don't know what i mean, check the fight in Vlil - Gavin's thread. --- I smack just for myself. Allow faction cap boosters to be traded via normal market ! |
