I love it. Empire corps can go suck it, go into null sec and mine.
I don't own a Rorqual so having a compression array saves me from hauling from my system to next door to refine it. Before I had to drop freight containers inside my site and mine until its full and move to the next container. Then when I'm finished I usually had 12 cans or so sitting in site. So I had to do 3 freighter trips to next door and refine it to achieve 100% refining. With cruis, I can easily fit it all my hard days work in my corp hangar because corp hangars only have max volume of 3mil. 3mil m3 ore compressed to 12K compressed ore. Also with my intensive array sitting next to my compression array, I just drag and drop and now I have refined minerals. Even better if you place everything you need next to it like Capital Array, component array, saving you even more time. Intensive Array with perfect skills + implants yield you the same as a tier 2 upgrade minmatar station so you don't even need stations anymore, everything can be done in a pos.
Yields is also 5% more with expansion that's if you have perfect skills + implant. Even if you had near-perfect skills with no implant you would yield the same as before. With a Tier 3 station with 60% refine you yield 15% more than previous expansion.
Compression is so overpowered right now that I have calculated and tested to fit a titans compressed ore amount in an JF and supers in an orca. Took me weeks to find the correct amount of compressed ore to yield the exact m3 for supers & titans in compressed ore.
Now miners in null sec no longer have to sell in jita, alliances now are buying the ore off their corps and producing capitals at an incredible rate. So now alliances are dependent on their miners even more. No longer can you go to jita and buy 1mil units of some compressed module and reprocessed near your super pos and build a super. Now you have to either mine it yourself or buy the compressed ore from the locals.
Compressed ore market in empire. Really don't give a s*** about them, but for those that do, the inventory sucks because not many people utilize the compression array in empire and null sec alliances are no longer hauling them to jita. If more empire corps would have them then the amount/prices would balance out and their would be a steady flux of inventory with decent prices. Also the reason mineral prices have dropped is because null sec alliances no longer want their refined material. Its easier to haul 5 bil worth of compressed ore in your transport ship than making several freighter trips of reprocessed minerals. A solution to high sec miners is to stop reprocessing your ore, null sec alliances no longer want it. Either sell them in your system or find a corp that has one in their pos. Stop being a lone wolf miner, if you can't afford it join a corp. I bet 50% of compressed ore in jita is actually being sold from those null sec corps that don't build with their ore.
Null sec mining has gone up 300%, except goons space (now we know who's been buying compressed modules)
My final statement is Keep up or Shut up. Reminds me today of today's society, efficiency wins. Also should mention to newbies, never travel with a full freighter worth of compressed ore, you'll wind up the one of the highest in lost amount in a single ship. Give you one of my secrets, You can fit a carrier worth of compressed ore in your Transport Ship, only requires 52k m3. However I don't buy in jita anymore.
Summary:
Compression so overpowered :) - supers in orca's, titans in JF
5% more yield with perfect skills + implant with tier 2 station
Mine in Null sec
Stop reprocessing your ore in Empire
Join a Corp if you can't afford it |
