Has anyone had a hauler spawn? What was the loot?
Three Metal Scraps and 2,500 concentrated Veldspar.
Four Retrievers, and a small gang of T1 Frigates with neuts, scramblers, and webbers. Took me the better part of an hour to luck out on the shots because their rep was a little ridiculous (I was using a Proteus with Drone+Neutron Blasters).
Kinda hoping I just got a bad spawn or something. Really wasn't worth the time and effort.

They are supposed to drop special cans. Perhaps they havn't been implemented yet OR you have to salvage to get them. |

Ha, outstanding work.
Second system I scouted, found a Ducia Foundry operation. To be honest, It took me a while to realise the NPC Barges are a new class of overview icon, but once I noticed them on a "show all" D-Scan, and went back for a closer look they were easy to find.
I'd watched Johnny Pew's video, so had a fair idea what to expect, but decided to kick off with a standard ratting ishtar.
Oh. My. Word. I died very quickly. Looking forward to running these with a rookie fleet in HS.
Really like the fleet comp - that amount of ewar landing on you is... unsettling.

I did find a hauler in a .5 system in high sec. It took about a 30 minute wait and in another case I waited about 45 minutes and no
hauler showed up so it seems quite random. As to the loot it was nearly me as 3 Apicalypse, 2 amageddons, 2 augoror and 2
executioners responded. needless to say my little Gila ran away. There were actually 2 spawns in the system at the same time
from different corps, I expect it to be fairly amusing when this hits the main server |

considering there is only one item in the database for them that wont work. if they added more items that would let players know what type of item they have a chance of getting removing a lot of the randomness behind it

Working on a Sunday? Thanks for putting so much work into these things.
Only suggestion is the hauler spawn mechanic doesn't seem to be working all the time. |

Haulers are spawning correctly. They come when the mining ships are almost full, empty their cargo, and then leave. It's a pretty small window of opportunity. It can take some time for the miners to get full on some ore, depending on what they are mining.

And do they mine the same amounts of ore like players in the same ships ?

After a lot of testing the more I dislike the Hauler spawn being the one that drops the loot. It allows people to just ninja the haulers and never really have to fight the defence fleet.
Also hauler spawn does seem a little wierd. I waited for 45 minutes watching a mining fleet and never did a hauler show up. |

First of all, thank you for enabling a much bigger 0.0 corp.
Has ANYONE found a mining spawn in 0.0? I just spent about 2 hours roaming around Delve (Blood Raiders) and still not found any spawns... (I'm beginning to wonder if they are spawning at all.) |

considering there are only 12 blood raider systems in delve that is not really a surprise

Nope, no mining ops in 0.0 for w/e reason. I guess NPC corps just sell their moongoo and whip their lowsec slaves to do their mining for them. : D |

Blatantly wrong. I've found npc mining ops in syndicate a week ago even. The reason you haven't found any is because the spawn rate seems to be abysmal, and you're looking in the wrong area. |

I've found them in syndicate. Spawn rate seems to be terrible. I think ccp got a decimal placement wrong |

lol having hunted hauler spawns for the past 2 days solid on test server. if these things are the only source of harvester drones then my god theyre going to be expensive. only about one in three haulers dropped a strongbox
each hauler took at least 2 hours to hunt and then only one of the strongboxes i got dropped a harvester BPC
RIP harvesters hardly knew thee
(a wise man would make the strongbox drop from the defense fleet)
also elite drone AI is gonna plummet in price due to these BPCs being the bottleneck

To be clear here, Harvesters are the faction mining drones. Not the ones the Rorqs use (extractor drones)
They're not new. They used to sometimes drop from convoys. But that stopped a long time ago. so it's a reintroduction of a very old drone type (with a shiny new paint job :D )

You don't need to issue warnings like this man! One of my most memorable Eve experiences was the time I took my carrier into a C3 wormhole to rat because I had a carrier now and what could possibly beat that? This taught me the value of research in Eve Online, the game that wants to make you cry.
You make it too easy on the new kids when you give them all these warm fuzzy warnings about stuff that will murder them in the face.  |

Sorry not kept up with things recently I was saving Skyrim from Dragons and Nationalist Nords.
Do the Pirate faction NPCs mine in Empire space or just their own space? Might be a stupid question.

This. There is absolutely no bottleneck whatsoever on the supply of the new excavator drone blueprints.

Still no comment about taking faction standing hits for shooting at these ......
It is related to the corp, so where you for example have caldari stations in amarr space you have the possibility of caldari spawns in amarr sov.

Well even that that low drop it will make the currently very rare harvester drones much cheaper wont it ....... |
