They need to make something that fits into a launcher slot that helps mining.
Like a micro Augeror drone launcher...

An Apoc can actually mine more than a tier 2 barge, and the Apoc can actually fit a tank while its doing it. This does not mean the Caldari or other races are getting the shaft, but rather that the Apoc is too good. I guess I can buy the Apoc being better than the tier 1 barge, but not the tier 2 or 3.

I think all battleships should get -50% mining bonus just because they aren't flipping mining ships. The drone ships dont need a mining bonus because they arent meant to be mining anyway. Raptor is right, it is a caldari nerf. Since when is a race who is all about liberation and entertainment mining? The caldari are the industrial race. DUH.

The tier 2 barge is actually the "cruiser" of the Ore line up. The tier 1 is the "frigate" of the Ore mining barge line up. So naturly a battleship will outmine them. But if you put them up against a ship from their respective class, I think you will find the gap is a bit smaller.

Well. In light of the missile overhaul, which basically put Caldari back inline with other ships in combat terms. Next, we need to put caldari back inline with other ships in industrial terms. No need to complain about the mining aspect though. The odds are quite high that the tier 3 caldari battleship will be a railgun ship, so I see 0.0 tank mining as a very good possibility for it.
However, how about we look at industrials. Without looking at t2, caldari, amarr, and minmattar only get 2 industrial ships. And of everyone except gallente industrials, none can perform near as well as gallente. So it is kind of suss that Gallente want to have battleships and combat ships that are balanced with the other races, while they sit there, far exceeding the industrial capacity that any other race can achieve.
I call for the mk3,mk4,and mk5 badger to be released. Why?? Because gallente industrials are overpowered. Also, of course, minmattar and amarr deserve industrials the equivalent of gallente's powerfull itty V. You cant use transport or freighter ships as an argument.
As for drones, I would LOVE to see a caldari drone ship be released. Just like I guess it would be fair for Duvolle Laboratories to steal a concept blueprint from Caldari State for a new missile ship, and enter it into the gallente market. While i agree that caldari need to hold their missile ***** status, and gallente their drone status, races should still be given some basic love here. Otherwise, why do amarr get a drone ship?

Detaurus told me to tell you, Caldari will rock after t2 missiles come out, until they nerf them 2 wekks following that.

By looking at other Caldari "Rail platforms" it would very much suprise me if the caldari tier 3 BS would get more than 6 turret slots. Caldari will be cursed with there mixed highs until doomsday.

Originally by: theRaptor Why are all the drone ships getting mining bonuses? They already have lots of turrets. What about Caldari? We don't have teh turrets? CCP needs to make mining missiles, where you blast of a piece of the rock and suck it into your ship. This would make my cerberus uber.
Please CCP, think of teh Caldari.
Lots of love, Me.
Not exactly sure if this is a sarcastic post or not, but ohwell.
CCP have thought about the Caldari(or they just got lucky). If you're truely a Caldarian, you'd think about it like a Caldarian. Either use what ships work 'better', or make a deal with someone who uses a mining barge or a ship you think mines ore better than the caldari ships.
Can't you think outside the box or act towards this in a mercantile fashion? Because of the small populace of the state, there's a lesser need to harvest ore, the caldari ships were created to suit this. Why buy 10 missile launchers when you only need 5?
Think about this in a better perspective... or you can just whine like everyone else. Your choice, I guess.

I agree, and hate the fact that we dont have a single ship that can fill all of its high slots with turrets. I will be really dissapointed if our tier3 rail battleship has a high slot placement of anything other than a 7/2 , 8/2 , 8/1 , 8/0, but I can just feel that we are gonna get hit with either a stupid 6/4 or 6/2. Christ, we dont even have a dedicated missile battleship. and yes, I am sure minmatar feel the same pain as we do. ------------------------------------------ Dreadnought Production INC is recruiting Join DPI Channel Or Visit (IGB) http://www.mmorpg-online.net/intro.html |

I er... have a hard time agreeing here. Gallente women are bred to merely look as pretty as they can be - all cute, no gumption. We Civrie are also natural athletes, compound fighters and we still have the hottest girls. Why the sacriledge of using a fighting ship for doing this digging of crumbs anyhow? We fight to pay the cowards to dig for us in their dedicated digging machines. It is a shame on our race that some dig.....

Following this logic, we should then have: tier 2 barge is actually the "cruiser" of the Ore line up. The tier 1 is the "frigate" and the tier 3 is the "battleship". So naturly, a tier 3 barge will outdamage and outtank a cruiser . Oh wait, it's not like that. Your comparison makes no sense. Mining barges are specialized ships, and a tier 1 barge, considering it has nearly no defence, should perform as well or better than a battleship at mining, and tier 2 and tier 3 barges should perform better. Not that mining barges should be boosted, but the ability of some battleships to mine should not be that high. Or you should really boost the tank ability of barges, with the tanking gap between a tier 3 barge and a battleship being as small as the mining gap

I can see his point its not new though an minmitar get shafted too since thsoe with more turrets can mine more efficiently so amarr and galante always are able to get more isk in. But you should know that before you train caladari has never been the best mining ships i think the idea has been that you use the good npcing and missioning ability to make your isk. If you dont like it just train basic amarr and use an apoc to mine.

Considering the uberness of Caldari battleships, I think it's quite cheeky to be moaning about their mining skill, fly an interracial barge!

Your logic is flawed. Frigates aren't mining ships, but take the bantam. Cruisers aren't mining ships, but take the Osprey. I think CCP should make a mining BS.. :D
