Hot GANKING action. See blasters overheat, EVE is real.

"Guys suicide ganking is super easy" - people who have never suicide ganked

Im still missing the answer from Mr. SuperPro Andski whats the rocket science in suicide ganking.

Its only as easy as people let it be and miners make it very easy for us.

"people who have never suicide ganked" - people who don't check their facts.

Edit: Just to get things streight, I think suicide ganking is an important part of the game. I have no problem with suicide gankers. I have suicide ganked myself. Couple of times with my main, a great deal more than a couple of times on alts, and I have frequently been in corps who have regularly suicide ganked.

The problem I have, is when people whine that suicide ganking is hard, or requires any skill. No one I have ever suicide ganked with has been under the illusion that it's difficult. People make the argument that it's difficult to make a profit now, but frankly I never knew anyone who suicide ganked for profit, at least not on a single person scale. It's about the grief. Also, when people argue that miners deserve it for being afk, that pisses me off because that's just stupid. I don't even like mining. I haven't mined in literally years. Basically, people spreading crap so confidently pisses me off.

Still plenty of afk ice miners, I see.

We should give them a little poke to see if they are awake.

why do you waste so many catalysts on Orcas when half of them could do the job?...or 2 orcas could get ganked simultaneously?

We dont want to stop people from blowing stuff up if they want to.

lol, this!
I throw my alt into pretty much any kill. Even if there's already 60 people queuing up to kill that orca, I'll make it 61! because... why not.
It's not like it's costly to lost a destroyer, like 2M i can make back in minutes. I have more already fitted gank ships dotted all over the place, so it's not even like I have to spend time fitting, and when you are at -10, you can't get any lower.
It's quite a sight to see a massive blob of destroyers overkill an orca though then blap anything in range on the way out. You should try it Eugene.

been there....but we try to kill as many ships as possible at once.
Its all about efficiency when you earn your money from loot. So I can understand that you might not have that perspective.
Nevertheless carry on with doing this important work!

dude, even the forums are pvp grounds in this game.

But is it REAL pvp?

Some form of pvp being easyer does not mean they are not real...

An update of sorts...

I have alts in two different Caldari ice belts and it seems there are plenty enough miners to deplete the belts just as before the ice interdiction.

What I do notice is that there is a lack of Orcas and Freighters involved along with the usually ball of botters.

So suffice to say this ordeal has made it easier for the little man who solos to get his fair share of the ice.

Thanks for that interesting turn of events.

I mean all you need is a 11 million isk procurer and a clone with no implants and you can make your ships worth in 3 loads and everything else is just money in your pocket. So if you are killed and podded you can just keep mining.

A procurer with the best mining yield fit and a T2 orca boosting, mining inflated Caldari ice still only makes 17.8m/hour. you'd make MUCH more simply mining regular ore in another region.

Hrm... My calculations of an unboosted Procurer gets around 20 million per hour with current ice prices with a cycle time of 50 secs.

Anyways.

I'm talking about people who don't own Orca's, freighters, and massive fleets of macks. People who run those large fleets are the people I don't like.

Max yield again. Might want those deadspace shield boosters for the rats, you know ~

Ice in a good single malt == sacrilege! Just a wee splash of water to open it up.

Came to the thread looking for miner tears.

Left disappointed

Give it a week before we get a good one. Right now its just the grr goon brigade.
