And that would put the relative end to that. It won't make it impossible, but it will surely make it far more difficult.
EDIT - I actually would like to see the ability to stack Anchor rigs, instead of being limited to just one. Or, alternatively, make a tech 2 rig which adds 150% or more instead.
I would like to know more.
Why does the MWD increase mass?

Oh wow. 9 years of playing and learn new stuff all the time.
So if I put on a Higgs rig and 500 mwd then bumping is more difficult?

So I guess that is why CCP is considering the 3 minute rule.
So with the rig and MWD, you couldn't be pushed away from the belt, but you couldn't warp out if needed?
What if I get some one to web me?

I am not sure how you want to gank an Orca if the pilot has at least the basic skills for tanking. The live Orca has already ~200k EHP and with the patch it gets another boost. How is you plan to kill that in high-sec? Throw Maelstroms at it until there are so many Concord ships that the server crashes? You can't get it with suspect either, as mining drones do not react to loot stealing and besides: there is no loot to steal with a cargo hold that huge. Now you can probably bump it away, but keep in mind that the drones have up to 60k range, plus another 24k for potential drone links. I'd say that someone who spends that much time bumping an Orca out of a belt really has serious problems. :D Those suicide catalyst, can deal 600dps? cost few mil. Then concord reaction in 0.5 is 30sec? that gives 18k dps per catalyst, 12 should take current orca down. Now add to that exploit part, that suiciders who have already -10ss, they move arround in pods, and there own alt orca launch catalyst for them in space, so that they can board them and have full time before concord reaction to shoot at your orca. Now add to that fact, that goons are who will gain most from current rorqual changes, somewhere else someone counted how much ratting cariers they lost by last half year, 11, so it will be in there interest to cut down hsec supply, as they will oversupply market in no time with those numbers.
If the Orca has 400k EHP which isn't hard to do. It takes about 23 cats.
I mean if you are a large Corp that isn't a problem, but if you got that many people you might want to do something more lucrative like gank freighters.

so 250mil for killing 700mil worth ship? I call it fair game then.
Now calculate the profit to be made on such a gank.
Maybe if the Orca was using ORE drones.
