Leave merc to last. Warp rorquals out. Mine merc with barges. Duh.
I hate to agree with a Gon, but this.
I still don't think that linking PANIC to an actively locked asteroid makes ANY sense whatsoever (cause mah Rorq Team Six hotdrops) but okay... and nerfing the yield AND changing the anomolies? COME ON FOZZY. You're killing me. It already takes most of forever for me to clear spud even with two rorqs in an anom, but moving rocks farther apart? Baby steps, man, baby steps.
You want me to stop mining? Increase the Security Class of some of our systems. Kill the broken True Sec of Delve, and move it to Vale :) I would rather hunt Officer capitals then mine anyday, but Vale is ****. And speaking of that, why are Dread Gurista Dreadnaughts dropping junk? Like Male Prostitutes and other random pieces of garbage. Fix that.

Also CCP, if you REALLY wanted to make people mine in Exhumers, you shouldn't have made them such a headache in the first place!

2 hulks 600M 1 Rorq 12B.
Now ,what is the point of mining whit rorqs?
Answer: waste time for learning useless skills.
I would like a refund on the skill queues and books, especially the ice mining drones that are what 5b each????
Fozzy, return your Canadian Citizenship now.

Broken truesec doesn't affect ore anomalies. We only get 10% yield anoms in -0.85 or better, same as you.
You're right, but that's not what I was saying. I was referring to CCP's economic interest in getting us to stop mining. I will stop mining when ratting stops being ****. In Delve it's an Officer spawn every *over exaggerated cough* 35 seconds (yes I'm being overdramatic, but you know what I'm saying)

Yes, the Core makes you immune to ECM, but with the change in anomalies, rocks becoming farther apart, Rorqs are going to have to move more frequently to stay in optimal range for the travel time of the drones. That's the biggest weakness of the system as is; the drones are horrendously expensive, and to try to protect them, you should be within 10 km of the rock you are stripping. It takes a bit of maneuvering to keep you in that 10 km bubble, so you wind up being on the move more often than one would think. You aren't in siege when you are moving. Sure you can just hit siege when a neut shows up in system, but that isn't the point.
The point is the heavy handed multi-point nerf bomb being dropped on the player base AGAIN, like lemmings off the proverbial cliff.

Karmastat wrote:My two cents: I see the PANIC module as a hard counter to Hot Drops from Covert Op Hot drops. But if u make the requirement to have an active target lock on anything -- wont that just mean the attackers will use an attack that breaks all target locks first?
This would just make the fleets as vulnerable as before?
since killmails can list the closest celestial to a kill, why not just check if an asteroid belt is closest celestial?
The counter argument to this is that "in siege, the rorqual is immune to ewar" Yes?

I think there's also something else that needs to be said about the whole null-sec ores versus empire. We have to build and maintain our own infrastructure. Getting and keeping the industrial index up and buying and moving the upgrades itself. That's not cheap. Plus having the infrastructure to organize our own response fleets, cyno in defensive units etc.
This stuff all costs money, which we have to include in our cost of ownership. Whereas Empire you just warp to belt and chew.
Yes, rorq's should be isk printing machines. But they should cost money and make an appropriate return on investment.
Just though that should be said because no one has brought that up.

Amarisen Gream wrote:Hey CCP - how about a boost to Rorquals/Capital Tractor beams in which they allow the Rorqual to tractor rocks closer, but has to maintain an active tractor on it to keep it close. If they drop the tractor the rock will return to a spot in the belt?
This isn't totally tended to be a single boost for the rorqual. but would allow the rorqual to assist in relocating rocks in the belt to help other mines as well....
At least with an option like this it would add some fun game play to mining.
That's actually not a bad idea. Saves Rorqs from having to slowboat from rock to rock to maintain a perfect sub 10km distance.
I like it. Because you know, the capital tractor really is worthless other than for its range. And that's what we have MTU's for
