Taipan Gedscho Taipan Industries	Posted - 2006.11.13 16:55:00 - [1] I cant stand it anymore. Looting Lvl4s is a pain. and yet, sometimes i have to do it. You dont want to go mining for minerals, now, do you? Enough is enough! stand up with me, and shout, no SCREAM with me: We want em bigger tractor beams! we want autoloot options for dem beams! and we wouldnt mind retriever drones, that loot them cans for us! Power to the people! We are the people! and we loot our crap!

Taipan Gedscho Taipan Industries	Posted - 2006.11.13 17:02:00 - [3] yeah, something like that. did i mention, that it seems, those things are already in the DB, but not seeded, yet. so i think, im not asking for anything 1) that draws too much manpower from important tasks 2) creates an imbalance in combat well... maybe it makes hit-and-run more profitable under certain circumstances.

Audri Fisher Caldari The Keep THE R0CK	Posted - 2006.11.13 17:25:00 - [5] The main argument against tractor beams in the first place was the knowledge that people like you would soon be posting this drivel! do 2x tractor beams, MWD and nanos on a indie not loot fast enough for you?
Tunahelper	Posted - 2006.11.13 17:26:00 - [6] Would be nice if you could just stick on in the 8th slot of a raven and loot as you go, without the need to fly back in a dedicated looter. Though it all changes with salvage anyway.

Though with the introduction of salvaging in Kali, I wonder what will happen to mission loot.

Tractor beams cant be used on anything other than your corps cans or npc cans you killed.

Though with the introduction of salvaging in Kali, I wonder what will happen to mission loot. instead of cans, the mission loot is in wrecks. Game mechanics are exatcly the smae. you kill npc, use tractor beam on the wreck, pull normal loot out. The only thing that is changing is the Graphic's and the fact that you can get other goodies with the right skills/mods.

That being said, a Sigil with 5 nanofibers and a T2 AB can reach speeds around 1.000 m/s, fit 2 Tractor Beams and a silly 2-slots shield tank (booster+invuln), turn as quickly as a frigate and warp like greased lightning ...

Power to the people! We are the people! and we loot our crap! How about the loot just appears in your hangar. Bigger beams? Sure. Autoloot? Uh, no. Loot gather drones? Not going to work too well since cans will be replaced by wrecks, and a tiny drone isnt going to drag a BS-sized wreck.

Ohmy Fugod Caldari	Posted - 2006.11.13 23:22:00 - [19] Gotcha, well I guess it'd be about the Sigil then, 'cause unless you feel like hauling, I'd rather take another rank 4 skill to lvl 5 instead. :-) And back to topic, ofc, better tractor beams ftw! \o/ -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ *Quod Natura non da, Salamantica non praesta*
Jaeuhl	Posted - 2006.11.13 23:25:00 - [20] Perhaps after Kali they will just have a new skill set of ships that are dedicated looters that get a tractor beam range bonus. Something with 4 hard points, a static 50% increased tractor beam range, and 10% per lvl of (whatever the new class of ship is called), and 2% increase speed of tractoring per lvl. I'd love to see those cans fly in at 750. It can be part of ORE vs. some faction ship. Large cargo and even a small drone bay. Give'm something else to buy, build, and skill up. ...all I ask is they design 2 totally different ships for it and not recycling old ships.

Taipan Gedscho Taipan Industries	Posted - 2006.11.13 23:32:00 - [22] im pleased to see a real discussion, fun and mockery and even some nice PSed pics. and about the indie with 10mn mwd... id get a sigil with a mapc and some rcus. but still... 2 beams is too little, so the exe is my looter of choice. but right, yea, since kali will introduce salvaging, and most probable/hopefully a "scrapmetal collector" mini-profession (why the hell does it have to be "mini"?) i would love dedicated lootships.

Laughlyn Vaughns Gallente Lagos-Vaughn Industries	Posted - 2006.11.14 02:15:00 - [24] trouble with itty V (which i use on vengence and infiltrated outposts cos of amount of loot 1400m3 ish) is that they can only lock 2 targets at a time and it takes a while to lock them. i also use an exq with (now) T2 expanders which has just tipped it over enuff so i can get all infil outpost (vengence has metal shards and stuff which i horde) i would liek to see specific salvage/loot ships come in soon, i'm thinking a new model ship, Tech 1 but with a good amount of skilsl needed to fly liek the covetor. obviously Survey 5 would be in there and science or maybe even graviton pysics (as thats what traccys originally neeed) 5/6 hislots for traccys and salvage modules 3 mids for burner, repper and whatever 4 lowslots expanders, what else. have it sumat liek 10% to cargo hold and 5% increase of chance of salvaging. base cargo of 1000m3 but seed the medium and large traccy beams too, that way it can fit mediums on it and get to work.

The named ones should be like 15mil/20mil/50mil. Tech II about 3 mil under the rare type because of the rare types convinence. And the other named ones should progress between 1mil-15mil and respectively and proportionately with each size upgrade like all other modules.

To calculate the costs for the Capital Titan, I did Raven as my base. Raven 9500 PG base Phoenix 450000 PG base, ratio is 47.37... Raven CPU is 700 base Phoenix CPU is 825 base, ratio is 1.179... So I multiplied the large by 47.37 in PG and 1.179 in CPU and then by two, because the Dreads have roughly half the high slots of Battleships, then by two again for PG to remain fitable on the lower Capitals while actually feeling like it costs something on the Titan. What do you think?
Madcat Adams Mission Runners Anonymous Incorporated	Posted - 2006.11.14 03:52:00 - [26] Then many good ideas here have already surpassed my musings on the matter, so I shall simply say I agree and completly support the expansion/improvement of the tractor beam family. It's great being Amarr, ain't it? Aimez- "oh ****, this is empire......." Thanks for the loot, and next time you go out to pirate, carry more tech 2 plz =)

Shameless Avenger	Posted - 2006.11.14 06:44:00 - [29] Edited by: Shameless Avenger on 14/11/2006 06:47:12 Edited for clarity /me signed However, you can loot most of the good stuff in lvl 4s in one go (and quick) with an Exequror, fitted with 4 tractor beams and 3 cargo expanders. An MWD or AB plus some cap rechargers also help. Note: The exequror has a 10% bonus to Cargo Capacity per level of the cruiser
Sandra Tseng THE MISPHIT'S Kurai Komichi	Posted - 2006.11.14 07:47:00 - [30] WTF - this is the sign of a real mission*****grinder. GET YOUR FAT A$$ RAVEN ON THE MOVE! or use a faster more agile ship! Use nanos! use MWD or AFTERBURNER! What you really want is a "give me isk button" that you can click every 10 minutes for 10 million isk. Soon you will be whining because you have to undock the station every now and then. Play the freakin game the way it was intended to. Just warpin in and stayin still at one spot spamming missiles left and right and then go back to dock and repeat all over and over and over again is NOT what this was supposed to be! _ Killed my sig AGAIN! :p http://www.ninc.org/krubarax/images/2d/verydisco.jpg

Kery Nysell Caldari Nysell Incorporated	Posted - 2006.11.14 10:41:00 - [31] Hmmm ... I mainly use my Tractor Beams to grab the cans of ore during my corp's mining ops ... if post-Kali they only work on wrecks, that'll throw a spanner in the works ... We can fill a jetcan in about 5 mins, our haulers need their Beams because our mining op moves in the belt, doing a new insta bookmark on the can every 5 mins is not practical ... so they "warp at 15 kms" to a member near a can, lock and pull it, empty it and then dock ... nice and efficient. Is it confirmed that Tractor Beams won't work on jetissoned cans after Kali ?
Mallakk	Posted - 2006.11.14 10:52:00 - [32] This game is WOWing... people are now too lazy to loot their loot themselves and will soon ask it delivered in the cargo hold of their ship directly...

Heikki Gallente Wreckless Abandon	Posted - 2006.11.14 12:56:00 - [37] Originally by: Taipan Gedscho so i think, im not asking for anything 1) that draws too much manpower from important tasks 2) creates an imbalance in combat But have you considered whether it inbalances: 3) risk or work versus ISK gains Are you also asking for income boost to missioners/NPCers? If not, making looting faster or less boring should also imply nerf on the value of typical can loot (which would hurt those who've managed to organize their looting better than others). Or if you do want such boost, should try to argument why it is warranted. -Lasse
Taipan Gedscho Taipan Industries	Posted - 2006.11.14 13:23:00 - [38] Edited by: Taipan Gedscho on 14/11/2006 13:23:17 i dont care if the loot gets less valuable. have you ever looted a mission? i dont know, but all i get is crap. but still, sometimes i want some mins to build stuff. most mission runners.. well... run from mission to mission without looting. for lp, for bounties and the reward. and in the long run, they make MORE isk than those mission ***s, that actually loot. im sure you know that. so, ALL it would do, is bring the runners and looters more in line. but PLEASE, for **s sake, can we NOT turn this thread into another balance discussion? if you want bigger beams, shout with me. if you want to discuss balance... well... nobody can help you anyway.
Mallakk	Posted - 2006.11.14 15:01:00 - [39] Originally by: Taipan Gedscho lol, if anything is wow like, then its looting as it is now. click, click, click. click, click, click. and those clicks go without thinking about the task. remember that? right. THAT's wow. What is lame is being too lazy to loot your own mission and whinning on the board for a way to do nothing. Whatever you pvp, mission or mine, its a game, the goal can only be reach, and is only interesting, if you spend a few time trying to reach it, not if the devs put your reward directly in your mouth. Lazy people already ruined most game like UO, EQ, FFXI and many other, no need to do it with Eve, there is plenty of space for lazy people already. It take too long to mission.. too long to travel, too long to mine... god, change game and go make thing faster, perhaps some people like when things takes time. My wife does, and i do my best to ! How's your ?
Taipan Gedscho Taipan Industries	Posted - 2006.11.14 15:09:00 - [40] Edited by: Taipan Gedscho on 14/11/2006 15:09:35 right... and if we would be getting (the already coded) bigger beams, or dedicated lootships with beamrange bonus... YOU, of course, would still be using the old methods, because the new ones are too easy... sure. ill believe that right away. im not asking for anything that would make eve less interesting. and if you would start to think about it, you could see that.

Slevin Kalebra	Posted - 2006.11.14 15:18:00 - [42] I'd like to see larger tractor beams. As well as different ranges, the mass of the container / wreck being towed should affect the speed at which the tractor can tow it. Also using a large tractor on a fragile object could cause the towed container to be torn apart by the stress if it takes too long - That would be pretty simple to implement: containers already have hit points, just apply a slight hit point degradation to the container per tractor cycle... container reaches zero before you loot it... boom no loot.
Mallakk	Posted - 2006.11.14 15:24:00 - [43] There nothing boring in... looting. I like to loot, especially going to the can of the battleship, sometimes there is a surprise inside, sometimes there is only carp... my only regret is there is not 0.0001 chance for a bpc drop that would make the action wayyyy more amazing than it is. Its not because you think its boring than most of the player think so. Lazyness isn't a rule.
Paigan Amarr Katsu Corporation	Posted - 2006.11.14 15:28:00 - [44] I already shouted for the same thing in the kali forum. Noone cared. Not even the players... There are already medium any heavy TBs in the game, but not seeded yet. Not only uncomfortable, but even pretty mean and intentionally customer-annoying from CCP, if you ask me. Even World of Borecraft provides more comfortable looting. ITS IN THE GAME. SEED IT!!!! -- This game is still in beta stage
Carnye Dubro Caldari Shock and Awe	Posted - 2006.11.14 17:16:00 - [45] I use a Prophecy with seven tractors fitted, an ABII and spilt lows between nanos and cargo expanders... works like a charm. (you could fit a MWD to it... but would have to complete the mission before you could use it...)

(you could fit a MWD to it... but would have to complete the mission before you could use it...) how bigs the hold on that? i bet not enough... i was thinking of getting an extra battleship, just so i can fit more beams to it. but after adding enough expanders, so its actually a little useful...it just wont really move anymore...
Kaathar Rielspar Minmatar	Posted - 2006.11.15 00:15:00 - [47] if it hasn't already been said (didn't read thread): pffft be glad you've got a small beam, back in the day it was all manual labor flying to each can, you kids got it easy these days ____________________ Originally by: Jerick Ludhowe Originally by: Eximius Josari If BS Sized HACs would be overpowered, what are HACs?

Riddick06	Posted - 2006.11.15 19:59:00 - [49] Originally by: Sandra Tseng WTF - this is the sign of a real mission*****grinder. GET YOUR FAT A$$ RAVEN ON THE MOVE! or use a faster more agile ship! Use nanos! use MWD or AFTERBURNER! What you really want is a "give me isk button" that you can click every 10 minutes for 10 million isk. Soon you will be whining because you have to undock the station every now and then. Play the freakin game the way it was intended to. Just warpin in and stayin still at one spot spamming missiles left and right and then go back to dock and repeat all over and over and over again is NOT what this was supposed to be! _ Sandra you are not adding anything positive to the conversation can you please edit your post with these...
