Nothing wrong with that. Your dull arranged WH pvp wasnt everyones thing.
And farming boonies wasn't everyone's thing either. To each their own I guess.

Happy to see those players leave W-space tbh.
We all know they won-¦t leave. They will just buy more chars, set them up in another rentercitizens hole and run another set of escalations every day.
Then they will complain about the lack of content and evict someone to "get a fight".

Every big group blue to each other, dropping everything and their mother on any neutrals and then complaining about noone fighting? Sounds about right.
The people who follow the rule "ratting and content are decided by your static" seem to have no problem with this change. |

I think you underestimate how empty C5 space is generally. Go back three years, most groups weren't as big, there were more mid-sized corps on average and only VoC really roamed null all the time - and C5 space was still famine or feast (and mostly famine at that).
There's a reason people started roaming null. |

If you get most/all of your PVP in null then log off in a J system that doesn't make you a wormholer FYI.
It makes it less likely for people the find each other wich in a multiplayer environment is bad.
And i think most w-space alliances usualy look at it this way:
Is there pew in wh's to be found after at least 1 hours or more of scanning?
Yes->go do pew
No-> any low or null there with pew?
->yes go pew
->no start at the top or log of
The less holes also makes it harder for the very few nullbears that do try wh's for to come in.
It makes it less likely for wh-space alliances to go and mess with null.
So were is the good side again?
The opportunity cost to get pew has just gotton bigger.
And all that because some null alliance was not able to adapt.
No local in null sec would fix everything!
Fleet warp proposal = the rubix cube is back into eve especialy the second part of the saying.
Wh players need to adapt, null sec players get the rules changed.

Because ganking a single ship in w-space and then rolling within 5 minutes before the enemy can form up is superior to nullsec, where it is more likely that the enemy ship you're ganking has a cyno. OBVIOUSLY.

I logged on yesterday for the first time in months, and did a load of scanning. Never found so little null secs. If i understand it correctly one of the reasons null wh's have been nerfed is because null sec entities used them much more for high sec logistics / access since the jump changes, and perhaps wh space did have a little too much access to null (was that actually a bad thing? null is meant to be the most dangerous space after all...).
If that's the case, it would probably have made more sense to reduce the number of high sec wormholes a bit or a little of both imo rather than what seems to be a big nerf to both wh space and null sec.

It was basically because pl were using whs to jump across to different areas of null sec for kills, thus avoiding the restrictions made with the phoebe jump changes, and some other null secers were mad about it. While I don't mind what pl were doing (emergent game play anyone?), I do hope that it will stop folks in whs just jumping straight into null to find fights and keep them in trier chains.

This is the WH section. We should be concerned about how these changes negatively affect people who colonize w-space, not 00 players. How does closing 00 holes make it less likely for people to find each other? It is so rare to go WH > null > WH that I would almost call it non-existent. Yes, I know it does happen, but not near enough that this change will impact the number of fights WH inhabitants get against each other by using a chain like this. On the other hand if that corp that typically scans a chain and takes the first decent null exit they find to go gank ratting carriers is now forced to stay in chain aren't your odds of finding them increased, and not decreased?

From my time in noho, more than often we found fights through those very holes because quite a lot of null secs had connections to C5 / C6 space. Less null sec wormholes means less wormholes in general (and variety of wormholes), meaning less opportunity and so directly nerfs content for wormhole space.

In true anecdotal manner, it's getting a LOT harder to get a decent chain out of our home, which has a null static.
Never used to have to go that far afield to find another null hole out somewhere useful, now it's a case of rolling like a fiend to get something usable. |

My Idea of a decent chain is one with active people in it some vitals and instrumentals, possibly also a Hs ,
Any decent nulls where like a bonus. |

You misunderstand, we have a static null.
The only semi-reliable way to get places was to go out there and look for other holes.
I must've bounced through 30-40 systems today and found two holes. Not that they were "bad" sigs, just none. |

Force wormholers to stay in wormholes and find fights against each other?
How many fights can we organise amongst ourselves? Who's up for a 5 vs 5 or 10 vs 10 or X vs X (ship size) tournament, e-honour totes not bringing slaves/snakes/crystals whoops is that neutral in system truly my boosting alt? Hahaha barely noticed.

Voicing opinion that the N432 and Z142 nerf is way too hard. You can go scan for hours in null not finding any c5's or I have just been stupidly unlucky a few days in a row.

Well it's obvious you're meant to go and try fight anyone in those 9 systems, if there is only towers it's probably time to start some evictions!

Seeing the reports over a period of time that n432 is nowhere to be found anymore is troubling. Maybe increase the amount of z142 instead ccp? That keeps the nerf for nullsec people but hurts c5 less.
And I have no illusion that lack of content make people search harder. It just makes them play less or move to a place where its easier accessible. Both can hurt wspace over all classes.

As someone scanning from null to get back to high sec/thera...
WH's are now rare enough that I'm traveling a bunch more to do things that were previously simple, like restocking ammo or dropping off loot... Essentially crossing about 16 systems to get a useful signature to get back to low/null, and some extra time to go 2 WH's deep on the other holes. That was the worst case, previously I would have found it kind of obnoxious to have traveled 6 or more systems.
IMO this WH rate isn't bad enough to affect the few cases of logistics. But it's bad enough to make it so that no one in null needs to worry about what's coming out of them WHs..
________________
Then again I've only needed to leave NS 3 times since the update. Mostly to drop off loot rather than pick stuff up.
So not statistically significant, but with other complaints it's "yes".
edit: converted a TBH to an IMO |

edit 2: Essentially logistics holes from null to elsewhere used to be common enough that I would say "F that I'm not traveling that many jumps to get to Thera (and find a new logistic chain/hole)", to "Meh looks like I'm traveling that many jumps to Thera (maybe even maybe I should just log out and see if thera connects tomorrow)."
This is pretty much in line with my experiences over the weekend. Perhaps it is simply RNG being RNG coupled with being aware of a change causing mild prejudice.
End of the world? Not really. Pain in the arse...yup. It's significantly more isolating for the static null dwellers. |

Found 2 n432's one was eol, the other one lead to an empty wh with everything eol but did have an out going null.
so yes they still are there, needs more data or more people to actually scan chains.
OK so in 1/2 hour found 4 x c5's in one half of a region
Scanned about 20 systems tonight.
2 null - c5's
1 c2/3 to null (was eol)
2 c5 > null's
But because randomness we need more data tbh.
not certain if null > wh / kspace is based on x holes per region or if its spread over all null systems etc. |

There's another factor on incoming holes into w-space given the 16hour spawn time. They'll tend to be much more scarce in a window some time after the quietest times in null, as there will be fewer people scanning during this time.

So basically, latenight nullbears are safer than ever! Great removal of content for Wh dwellers. |
