You realy think that is the way it should have been ? to afk kill npc's (yes i say afk as any 1 mill sp idiot can do it) and then go buy your self some stuff that should not be availible exept with team effort, after all, eve is teamplay.
Have you looked at if loot and salvaged items maby boost the bounty now and you might get ewen more than those 30 mills if you would do so ? Just a hint :)

Does the change to the directional scanner have an impact on your wallet? --*=*=*--

Well, think it would, if I'd rat the same way like before.
But I didn't use directional spawns to find faction spawns, but to clear the rubbish out of the belts and later to see, if the rats I was been chaining were already respawned. So I was most of the time warping from bs spawn to bs spawn once the system had good spawns like triple 1.55 mil bounty spawns. And of course to find spawns that jump away. If you find a domination or hauler spawn and the spawn jumps to another belt, then it's quite annoying. Checking like 20 belts to find it again is not much fun.
The directional scanner was really nice for ratting. (edit: Need money fast, because I rat usually like 3 days in a row and then I try to live/pvp from it like 6 weeks. )

Originally by: Realypk Edited by: Realypk on 11/12/2006 09:16:23 Ok guys i used to make around 30m an hour ratting in 0.0, recently after the revelations patch thats all gone to hell. I made 16 m in 6 hours.... this really stinks. I've checked with almost everyone else i know that rats, and they admit they never get good spawns anymore all they get is crappy spawns that are worth jack crap...
I can no longer afford to rat and pvp, this is pretty screwed up.....
I've been making 5M/hour just from bounty ratting with a Drake. Maybe you've just had bad luck. More 1.4 and 1.55M BS than I could deal with.

I just hope Providence didn't get nerfed. The amount one could make is pathetic as it is, no need to lower it even more. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

30m in an hour is chump change. Its about what I make on a good hour ratting. Thats not counting the loot of course. So folks should not act like this is some kind of isk fountain as that is not that much money.
I too have noticed a change in NPC spawning. It seems to me that the spawn quality has increased, but the spawn frequency has decreased. So if there are just 1 or 2 in system, I make way more isk. But if we get 5-6 people, within an hour everyone will leave because all the rats will be gone. ____ If your not dyin' your not tryin'. |

Hi Realypk. I remember passing you by on my way back to empire. I rat waay up north, like 20 jumps north of where I saw you. I have no problems finding good BS spawns. Double 1.2 mill, double 1.5 mils, double 1.8 mills. In fact, I'm not even strong enough to take some of them yet.
Just thought I'd let you know. Evolution in Eve:

Everyone rats solo, they bounties arn't worth it for ratting with other people. I don't udnerstand the constant nerfs in this game.

It may just be luck of the draw. I've gone around looking for spawns and not found anything for quite awhile. Then I jumped out again and seemed to get nothing but BS spawns. It does seem like something has changed with respawn rates, but I'm not sure what.

Are you guys just saying rumors or is there a confirmation of spawn rate changes in the patch notes or something?
I haven't noticed any change in spawns in Stain region.
Did notice more true sansha frigs in a 0.5 system I go to though. ---

So?.....You still make money unimaginably faster than the peeps in the new eastern regions, with less risk. You get bounties and dont have to haul your crap to empire just to make money.

10-15mil an hour killing guristas right now, not so bad though of course would be better if i made more, th question is really what's there to buy with a billion in the wallet anyway? certainly not +5 implants if you live in 0.0, and hacs arent really that great for other than pvp. fully t2 fitted ships maybe but they just dont seem to ever die.
Though I would still welcome a boost to guristas, can't complain about making more, or, what are you talking about, NPCers need more love CCP!
...Its painful to watch an officer spawn dispear before your eyes because of w/e that causes rats do disapear spontaniously for no reason.

Well, last friday in a certain system in the north, a literal ratters paradise, it was raining manna; There were 6 dread gurista spawns and 2 officer spawns (kaikka) in 24 hours. BS spawns were plentiful, and as fast as they were killed they respawned. If anything, i'd say ratting has been improved. No shortage of rats here.

I agree about exploration. My first time out i found a serpentis fortress. First level had over 10 1.2M BSs and more frigs and cruisers than you could shake a stick at. After me and a friend beat the second level, we get some message and a set destination button for away to go out and make 1 billion isk. we haven't done it yet, but damn.
good game

No wonder people buy isk.
It's the "highest daisy" syndrome. Cut down anything that looks abnormal, instead of building up the rest of the crop to match the highest daisy in the field.
It makes sense to sometimes nerf, sometimes build up.
All MMORPG's seem to predominantly take the nerf route though (nerf 90% of the time, build up 10% of the time). Easier to destroy than create I suppose, and with a population raised with a rabid "pull down the strong guy" bias all their lives, its unlikely to change in either the playerbase, or the developers of said games.
What can ya' do?

Something has changed with Ratting. Yesterday I ratted from 16:00 - 00:00 and made 20 mill. In a true 0.0 system in Deklein. I would say 80% of all the rats are figgates or cruisers, thats when you have rats that is, most of the time the belts are empty and theres another problem with rats warping off when I attack them.

I haven't noticed any difference ratting, and I rat like a fiend lol.
To those who say ratting is as boring as mining, well that's an opinion. IMO ratting is a hell of a lot more interesting than mining or missioning. When you are mining, your asteroid doesn't ever suddenly turn from Veldspar to Crokite does it? Missions were fun to me, until I did all of them once. All of what, 2 dozen or so unique missions? OK maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but still. Give me the excitement and unpredictability of 0.0 ratting over mining and missioning any day.

Bear in mind all ships have had HP increases, so they take LONGER to kill. An Enyo does not have the consistent firepower and ammo reserves now (i know i have tested mine).
