reduction from 52% to 38% absolutely doesnt reflect my experience. While I was finding 10 C5 entrys pre-patch, I even struggle to find 1 post-patch. |

Caldera, the K162s are relavant too, no?
~40% seems surprisingly high.
K162 are generics, so they wont be in any statistic.
N432 and Z142 were the 2 meaningful WH types C5-null, dunno about the others like V283 and so on. The sheer mass of chains were going via the first 2 named, which are hardly spawning since nerf. Cant remember any of the others being relevant for null-WH-null chains, maybe too rare or spawning from different classes of WH, in any case N432 and Z142 were the keystones of the wormhole highway. |

whatever you name it. What I'm saying is that K162 doesnt say anything about the actual WH type. I'm not a wormhole king but these can be anything, why I said "generic".
Justin Cody wrote: Now you don't have to be completely ignorant - although I hear it is rather blissful.
The nerf has destroyed C5/C6 space for those that like to roam nulls. Its great for Krabs though.
ignorant? What are you actually trying to argue? I said N432/Z142 were the major 2 types for connecting null though meaningful chains and that got ****** up. S199 were good too but too rare to be of any relevance. |

entitlement? Just pointing out the bad consequences of patch. Right now, deep null bears are completely safe in farming, since WH were a nice way to get to them for ganking. On the other hand, null-C5 chains were a nice way to get around nullsec, once you put enough effort in probing, this was a second valid WH use which got wrecked.
Jack Miton wrote: I'm not really sure why it needs to keep being said but wspace is NOT nullsec. Maybe if you want full time access to nullsec, you should think about how to do that, rather than just b!tch and moan about it on the forums, when you KNOW CCP will not do anything to appease you. Trust me, they really wont! no matter how hard you cry about it.
what is your point of counter-whining? You whining about other people's whining wont change anything nor does it serve a purpose. |

you are trying to argument that removed content is somehow good for the game. People didnt roam null because WH space was full of content, they roamed null in lack of it. |

Erica Dusette wrote: I disagree. It's not removing anything, it's merely forcing a slight shift in focus.
it is removed pvp. For null entities WH highway was a neat way to get across null for content for example. Same for WH entities were null exits a way to find content.
By removing these connections there wont be magically more content in WH space, quite the contrary - WH space will become even more of desert empty space due to removed content and more complicated logistics (null-C5 was a way to bring in caps into WH, just to tell one alrady severely handicapped by Phoebe).
Erica Dusette wrote: People roam null because it's easier to find a cheap fight, and maybe the occasional cap gank, than it often can be in wormholes
can be, null space was a chunk of additional stuff accessible from WH on top of its own WH content, which is gone.
Erica Dusette wrote: . Quick, easy and cheap thrills is why people roam null.
so. Whats wrong with it? If you take people cheap and easy thrills, why is it good?
Erica Dusette wrote:And the minute that fleet left w-space to roam null it just removed even more content from w-space. maybe WH duders are tired of set up and pointless arranged WH fights for years already. I always wondered whats the attraction of consensual wh pvp. |

you are not unhappy about people leaving? Interesting. In times with constantly dropping online numbers I thought people leaving was the last thing you would welcome.
Erica Dusette wrote: It's not removing PVP at all.
If you really still want to go play in null you still can.
I actually just showed you how it removed pvp. null -> WH -> null was source of content = gone. WH -> null was source of content = gone.
Sure, you might shift onto something else and try to compensate in a more or less successful way but for the moment being its chunk of content which is gone.
Erica Dusette wrote:
It just means you might have to go to a little more effort to scan a null exit, instead of having four of them spawn in your home system every day or something silly. Might mean you actually have to jump a hole or two to the nearest null exit. No big deal really, right?
like I said, forcing people into effort wont work. Forcing people into wasting hours over hours for 1 worthless null connection will work even less, thats the post aegis status quo. |

you might wish they would look more inward w-space. I'm not that naive and think they will rather leave, which is not a good thing.
Erica Dusette wrote: There's nothing wrong with cheap and easy, but when it becomes the mainstay for a wormhole corp's content, again they're living in the wrong space.
They are wrong? I disagree. Getting cheap and easy pvp is good for the game and why people are playing in the first line, who dont want to become a part of null circlejerk. Again, why is removing cheap and easy pvp good?? What is the gain? I dont see any.
Erica Dusette wrote: But if you're a wormholer then you certainly sound like the most disaffected one I've met in a while.
I recommend lowsec for you. All the non-consensual, cheap fights you like and logistics is a breeze.
im not a wormholer, I live in null. Why would you point me towards lowsec? Its a completely different from what is discussed here, stop derailing the thread. |

One of most hilarious things on eve-o is when people accuse someone of feeling entitled to something. How does argueing for/against something equal to being entitled? Just complaining about working parts of the game which CCP ruined for no gain/reason, apart of some whiny ***** abusing his CSM powers and crying to CCP to cather the game for his inability. |

Erica Dusette wrote: That was actually a serious answer, I wasn't trolling. Less nullseccers having a say in how w-space works the better.
Though I already did answer your question. You just have to read back through my posts.
1) Why are you advocating less WH traffic/pvp? Are you a farmer? Are you still salty about your recent tengu loss? There is no other reason I can think of for a WH resident not wanting WH connections.
2) nullseccers have "no say" in how w-space works, all they can do is complaining about it, posting on forums about that. Until the nerf I never even looked into this subforum, thus your theory that less WH content leads to less nullseccers here is obviously wrong.
Erica Dusette wrote: Not really, just a few vague points and kinda abstract comments.
its obvious and self explanatory. Less WH connections means: 1) taken chances for WH folks to find targets/fighs -> less pvp. 2) taken chances for null folks to find a chain to a different part of null for targets/fight -> less pvp. and "less pvp" (much less in current context) is just another word for "parts of pvp being removed", thus my saying about removed pvp - here again pretty obvious.
Erica Dusette wrote: I'm saying maybe you should be living in lowsec. I know you want to live in null (I want a new Ferrari too), but it doesn't sound like it's really your cup of tea unless you can have a ton of easy-access wormholes to highsec.
I'm not saying I want to live in null, I'm saying I live in null and thats why I am affected by the change in a severe way. Sure its my cup of tea, I can stay there and I can keep comlaining about the changed mechanics how much I like, nothing you could do anything about.
Erica Dusette wrote:That's really your core issue, but you're kinda trying to white-knight for wormholer's PVP instead because you know you'd get laughed out of this subforum otherwise as a nullseccer concerned about his easy logistics.
I never tried to hide my concerns, dunno how you would view it that way. What I'm honestly concerned about are removed/nerfed pvp abilities for everyone including nullseccers, wormholers and lowseccers all together. |

reshaping into what? For more WH fights? Removing pvp and complicating logistics then isnt a proper way to lure more folks into WH, is it? Isn't it?
Erica Dusette wrote: Nah, it's just redirecting folks a little. The pvp is still there.
redirecting to where? Lowsec? Trying to understand your way of thinking. I already explained in what way pvp got reduced, its obvious.
Erica Dusette wrote: Wormholers can still find a null exit easy as pie if we wanted. We generally have multiple null exits in chain daily.
still they can, never questioned the fact itself. Its just about the amount and effort, which was raised beyond limits for nor real reason. Why would you want to spend hours on few poor chains compared to pre-Aegis? What is the gain for you in more probing for less connections?
Erica Dusette wrote: The problem is when you're surrounded by a smorgasbord of null it becomes easier to forget w-space all together and just go on a null roam (I see it first hand), and that I do not like. It's a nice option, but some nerfs to stop it being the first choice for pvp are good imo.

but WH space already has a scarce population, doesnt it? In Phoebe they got their logistics nerfed by jump changes. Aegis removed a lions share of null entrys for already punched logistics and nerfs them once again, while nerfing pvp potential in same move.
Would you expect influx of more people into WH space (who could fight you) resulting from these changes?
And stop talking about shifts and such! CCP didnt give us new ways of finding targets/fights which haven't existed before, all they did is severely cutting existing ways and methods for player confrontation, so please for the love of god stop talking about shifting or moving of pvp encounters - we are clearly witnessing obvious removal of pvp with these change, CCP hasnt provided anything new for us but generously cut on what we had.
Erica Dusette wrote:As I said a few times, wormholers can find a null hole quite easy most times. If we really want to do a null roam it's not going to be a problem, even with the "nerf". Though the ease of access shifts a little, which will maybe make some groups persist in hunting the chain for a bit longer, rather than take the first exit to null for a sure fight.
I'm reading different opinions here and on reddit, which correlate very well to my experience of probing WH - while you could go probing for 1h and found a couple of null exits, post-Aegis you have to spend 3-4 hours or whole day and wont find any good at all. |

Losing those people won't really effect w-space as they obviously never roam and fight in it anyway, so ...
I dont think there are people living in WH space purely for k-space ganks/roams, its more of addon content on top of scarce WH stuff I would assume but again, these wormholers would need to raise their voice here.
Erica Dusette wrote: But is it really going to make a massive difference?
it made a difference, as I said CCP pushed the whole thing into the realm of time waste.
Erica Dusette wrote:I mean you'll probably still have plenty of holes spawn within a few jumps of wherever you are. not at all. You have to probe a whole region for 1-2 poor/EOL null chains you dont want. Why I said multiple times it became time waste, noone is gonna probe whole evening for that.
Erica Dusette wrote:I'm sure having multiple spawn in your home system is a nice luxury though, sure, and I can see how people wouldn't want to lose that. dunno how you got an image of nullseccers skewed that much, pre-Aegis you had to scan your area around your home and usually one of probers found some good chain within 15 jumps from where you live - a lot of probing work was implied to find them and you got rewarded with a fight or gank - effort and reward balance was quite decent.. Multiple in your home system, holy sh.. that would've been nice but it was faaaaaar from that.

you might hold onto your adapt or die narrative but you shouldnt forget, once enough people choose to DIAF (read: leave WH and do something else) you'll DIAF with them. In a game like eve with a very little playerbase, in an even smaller fraction of the wormholers player pool - this is likely to happen sooner than you'd think. I cant speak much about WH space overall, since I dont live there but every time I pass, it feels like stepping through a ghost town.

yes, for deep null bears WH change brings a lot of additional safety.
C5 wormholes were basically one of the few last potent sources of danger to ratting carriers, since you will unlikely be able to bring a force to deep null from C3 or any weaker wormhole, strong enough to burn down a cap in a meaningful amout of time until hostile support or more caps drop on field. |

no, if something is bull**** then its your statement. Removing a source of threat like in case of nerfed C5 spawn rates and "WH highway" means in other words areas of space become safER. Because if you would remove something, which doesnt affect safety, wouldnt be a threat, which you really cant say to C5 pre-nerf.
Camping systems with whatever ships is a completely unrelated case. Its like you were saying suicide ganking isnt a threat for highsec player corps, because well you could always wardec player corps and exert thread to those corps. Wardecs are nice and you always can do it, however it doesnt mean suicide ganking isnt a thing and could be actually removed. |

I dont know how the f*** one can argue that the nerf doesnt improve 0.0 security as it was the whole reason for the nerf actually, to start with. No you shouldnt gank carriers in ratting areas, no you shouldnt attack people or 3rd party fight through wormholes on the other side of the map. |
