am I the only one that feel we need these ??
first off we got the gang assist modules but no mining ship can actually fit those and getting a PvP ship in order to mine better dont make much sense to me not to mention you need a large gang to make up (even with the time savings) for you not being in a mining ship
here is what I would like to see Dreadnaught size Capital mining ship
6 High slots 3 HP (can fit 3 strip mining lasers and 3 gang assist modules) 2 Med slots (new module fits mid slot modular refining array gives like 20-30% + refining skills but refinines in minutes) 2 low slots
base speed 50 base shields BS base armor Cruiser base hull freighter 99% reduction to stripminers 99% reduction to gang assists modules 20% bonus to mining per skill lvl
I think tht covers the basics
can we have those pls ?? Motley Spacefarer

i think having a pvp ship for minning is very important, u need some1 to tank the 0.0 spawns
and well a command ship is amazingly good at this (\_/) (O.o) (> <) Resistance is Futile Find us here |

It wouldn't suprise me if Capital Mining Ships were implemented using rigs attached to existing Capital Ships - but I would not expect to see those rigs for a while.

Well, it's the first time I've used the expression.
What I was getting at was that you're proposing one all-encompassing ship that takes all the needed organization out of a mining operation. If you don't have to arrange for a CAP to defend the miners, a command ship if you want the boni, haulers to get the ore to a refinery, and add on that it will outmine any other ship by a mile, where's the challenge, or even the fun?
No.

Good lord.... Sounds like a fun ship, But a little to um, Much for any real corporation to use. and a 20-30% refine, Never going to happen, would completely undo the need for POS refineries.
My proposal:
A Corporate Storage ship,
2 High slots 2 Med Slots 2 Low slots
0 Hardpoints
2500shield 1500armor 2000 structure
Boni:
20% bonus to tractor beam range per level 99% reduction in Warefare links (was a good idea)
Basically, this would be a ship to be used by a corporation for storage of ores duing mining operations. Give it a 150k or so m3 corp hanger array, Very slow base speed, large sig radius etc. It would need to be a primary target for Players to go and attack, etc.
What it would be good for is it would reduce the amount of time/manpower needed in a corporate mining operation, You could have this one ship sit in the middle of the belt, and have a second hauler (or if you can get at a good spot, simply everyone within ~20km range) so that a more power could be put into pure mining. Add in the warefare links to help out the gangs, and its all good!

No.
You need a cap to defend miners? You need haulers to move stuff? At the moment, 0.0 mining ops consist of a single tank BS, 30 - 50 barges, and a gank squad of bs's to instapop anything trying to raid it. They haul using dreads / carriers jumpdrives. --------------------------- WTB - Officer Adaptive Nano Platings (NOT energized) I pwnz0r your sig, muahaha - Tirg Noes i got beat by a girl >.< - Xorus |

Um, in your example, the 'gank squad' is what I'm referring to as CAP, and the dread or carrier is the hauler. So... yeah.
I suppose with the proposed ship you'd still need that gank squad to defend from actual player operations, though.

By CAP did you mean Capital ship (IE Carrier) or Command air Patrol, IE, Your roaming defense force?
I think they just got a bit confused...

i generally like the idea of a capital miner.. however i dont like 2 of your details: a miner haven gang modules=no thats not a good idea itsa a miner not a gang ship, its just not good. and the refinery module i also think is a bad idea TOO powerful i think... but beside that you have my vote haha and yes to the not enter empire space part offcaurse not i say, in fact it should be restricted to 0.0 only
Generally a nice idea. |

Yes, you lose by training the mining skills.

Whats needed is a large ore capital class vehicle capable of large scale ore an mineral storage, the ability to run mining uplinks and refine ore and support a large mining operation out of corp territories. For instance:
Galleon
3000 shield hp 2000 armour hp
100,000m^3 capacity
2 High 1 Mid 0 Low
-99% cpu reduction in gang link modules -99% cpu reduction in mobile refinary system

Generally a nice idea.
even if we where to drop the refining module completely its a Capital miner for crying out loud it needs to have some advantage over a L barge or the Hulk notice I did put 3 HP on there its able to use the assist m odules cause no mining ship can currently use the 2 mining assist modules
we have the 2 mining assist modules that I would guess the mining one gets used ocasionally I doubt anyone ever use the ice mining assist module (please correct me if I am wrong)

yes this would be a wicked idea seems mad that they added the hulk so you can have someone tanking the belt spawns and still minin yet should you want to max out gang mining skills and uses the mods you have to then uses a main carictor to train BC or comand ships to have the skills and ship to uses the moduals when they are usesually combat and miner alt. would be good to have the ability to work on something to do both on a dedicated mining toon. and with this set up you have basically a hulk mated with a comand ship so it isnt overpowered regarding the mining ability ------------------------------------ Dragon the patch to optimise EVE.

Nah, we don't need capital-class miners. What we need is for mining links to be low-slot modules and for barges/exhumers to get a bonus to allow fitting.

That has to be one of the longest run-on sentences I've ever seen. I wish I could give you a prize.

I'd love to see said Capital Miner have fighter-sized mining drones, too. That would be very cool.
And I bet every Pirate in the game would be salivating at the chance to mob, scramble, and generally pop one of tese to wee little bits. I don't think it'd be the proverbial "I Win button", as (being a non-combat ship) it'd be relatively fragile for a cap ship, and the huge cost + the risk of losing it would balance out the general uberness.
And yeah, if it uses a cyno-based jump drive, it'd be low sec only. And thats good- all we'd need would be to give Macro's the ultimate miner :)
Anyhow, general /signed. Miners are people too.......

If its a mobile refinery with low yield, no jump capability, and is not allowed above .4, then I'll support this idea.
