Since a lot of aside threads picking up the new wave of wishes of bigger mining ship including mining titan 
I'd consider to change Rorqual to that role - null sec mining beast with Capital Strip Miner l added to the game.
Vote for it or leave it! |

It's not like you will survive if anyone with friends finds you - unless you have more friends than they do, which makes it a conflict generator.
It's a common question isk vs. risk |

That's for sureRorq need some love. But as I said before it's better to have it able to mine in a IC mode. This would require support.
it's shouldn't be a solo like mining pro. |

Hmm, maybe one of those drama of losing afk Rorq?
Or just a troll alt.

And your comment is deliberately destructive to that idea, shooting down the entire thread as well as the greater dream it is based on, as it you see nothing wrong with the current hiding Rorqual mechanics, and nothing right with attempting to fix that. Your comment is the problem, that attitude is not needed here. You are welcome to comment here but keep it constructive. If you think this whole thread is going in the wrong direction, try explaining why you feel that way, and point out some supporting evidence.
Don't tell me where I'm welcome to comment and how, you Stalinist. I'm an elite Rorqual pilot and have invested a lot of skills into it in the past. Here's a previous thread I (my previous forum alt) started on the subject. And just FYI, here's what the Rorqual zkillboard looks like right now. The reason I show that is because it's true that often a Rorqual will adequately defend itself (efficiency 77.8%). But is a 77.8% chance of survival really good odds for a 2.5 billion ISK asset? I don't think it is.
Not sure what makes you think otherwise, there is no ship in game which could stand alone vs. gang. How many freighters got blown daily, is that mean CCP should change them to protect? The whole idea is to add new role to ORE cap ships, that's it and as I said it's a common question - isk vs. risk. So its up to you will you move Rorq to the belt alone or have a strong back up for it, really doesn't matter to me. |

Its compression alleviates the need to devote POS CPU to compression. It can also carry POSes in its cargo hold along with indy ships and fuel to set up POSes wherever it will operate. And these POSes can be small, as they don't need to devote CPU to compression. So then it's a big expensive workaround to bypass the CPU requirements of the POS modules.

Exactly, why not to undock them more often? |
