Alright, So i understand that as a general rule its a BIG no no to drop a rorq into a belt with the rest of the mining fleet and deploy it.
So here is my question, if you are comfortable with the system and knowing that only way anyone can get to you in your dead end system is either to log in there or to travel in, and by traveling in there will be people to spot you 3 jumps out from the designated mining area. Is it for lack of a better word ok to have the rorqual close enough to the fleet to support them with drones but yet far enough that if someone enters it can freely warp to a pos because its aligned or cloak up or jump out.
Been bouncing this idea around with in a mining community i am involved with and every one acts as if im insane.
Its not being deployed inside the belt just there to boost and tractor all the cans in |

True but the issue is we have 2 rorquals there, no orca because that is hard to move around safely.
I know it is considered stupid but idk maybe im just too much of a risk taker |

Nothing partically wrong with using a rorq in a belt other then that there are much cheaper ships that can do the same job. If all you want to do is round up all the cans, why not use a noctis?
The reasoning was that we didnt want to have to try and move an orca if for some reason we had to get out on short notice |

true, i see that considering the potential problem i should just leave it inside

we are also a smaller unit, so we try to keep it as little extras as possible thats why the rorq is out there to haul for the deployed one, noctis would take away a miner. |
