Hi, so i'm wondering if you guys agree CCP should make the mining barge the Procurer an alpha ship but raise the price A LOT! I like the Venture...but we need just ONE MORE ORE ship that is an Alpha ship. I hope all you pilots out there can agree with me (the ones whom love mining) |

NO! As a miner HELL NO!! Broken rorquals are bad enough for mining but alpha barges is unacceptable.
Now another mining ship perhaps for alphas but my question to you is game play vs safety vs isk making and the ability to bot and afk. Where would the gain be? What risks would you build into the system inherently?

With mining 4 you can fit T2 mining lasers. Mining upgrades 4 lets you fit a T2 Mining laser upgrade and Mining frigate 4 gives you most of the hull bonus.
A maximum skill Alpha Venture really isn't that far behind a minimum skill Procurer. Factor in the speed with which the frigate can unload and you're probably close to 2/3 the yield.
Focus on an ore like Plagioclase that contains a decent amount of Mexallon and you can make a living Venture mining. Buy orders for compressed plagioclase are 6,866.59 ISK in Jita.
If you want more - subscribe. If you enjoy the game it should be worth 28 cents a day to have full access using the upgrade promotion https://secure.eveonline.com/upgrade/
Add some passive income activities like PI and you'll probably be in a position to PLEX the account before the subscription is up for renewal. |

The price of the ship is based on the materials that go in to it plus whatever mark-up the market will bear. There is a way to get to use a mining barge with a huge price mark-up. You go buy a PLEX roughly 1 billion isk each month.

You know... on second thought I think the OP has a good idea....
We need a gold procurer. It can be bought for the price of a single plex, every month and it will be shiney golden in color. If you dont pay for it every month it wont be gold and its just a deal for alphas.

I still say the only thing we need is active moon mining with ventures and special new goo lasers. Where warping to 0 to a moon actually lands you near the surface of the moon to actively mine it from there as you float a few kms above the surface moving your ship around with the WASD keys and manually point your lasers at the surface hot spots while doing geological scans of the surrounding areas with an interface similar to dscan and looks like a PI overlay on the surface. The goo lasers nullify the ventures +2 warp stabs though so be careful. Then there are 5 different scan areas for gases, and the 4 R-type goos as there are 5 different laser crystals. You dont know which is there until you mine it, just that there are some of that type nearby. So you might get a few cobalt, a scandium and a bunch of tungsten but no titanium, then a fair but of tungsten, one titanium, and nothing else until the hot spot is either depleted entirely or you move on to better pastures and therefore isk/hr.
But all moons must NOT have the same goo types as the standard goo mining available, would make it to easy.

I don't know...
One the one hand, I like that with the influx of Alpha miners mineral prices have dropped significantly and would drop even further if the OP had his way.
One the other hand, I don't get to sell my ships for as much.
But from CCP's perspective, it reduces the incentive for miners to upgrade to Omega, which defeats the purpose of Alphas altogether. So while it probably wouldn't affect my personal play style, it would not be good for the game.

Honestly, I think it's really some of both. Mining in Ventures may not be as quick, but if you can launch ten of them at a time, you're still going to turn a lot of rocks into gravel.

Raise the price a LOT? A LOT is multiplying the price, so wie are talking about 30 to150 mio. ISK Procurers?
The point of the Procurer is that it has a good risk/profit ratio. If it was a LOT more expensive this would kill the ship's concept. There would be zero point in using a Procurer because it would go from "last ship to gank" to "first ship to gank". It is 75 times the price of a Venture already, make it 150+ times the price and everyone will tell you: "Don't use the Procurere, it is a trap."

Except there's no easy way to actually run 10 alphas on the same computer. You can do VMs, if you're really smart and careful, but a computer that can run 20 Eve Clients will run a quarter or less of that in VM'd Eve clients, and that's really not worth it.
According to the first graph on the latest MER Ore value mined is up almost 1 Trillion ISK per day since the launch of both the new Rorqual and Alpha Clones. Considering what a Venture mines in comparison to a Hulk belts would literally have to be swarmed with Ventures for Alphas to be making up any appreciable fraction of that influx. |

Having venture mined. No. It's really not a mix. Venture is pretty much trash. With max skills you make 500-600k in 12-13minutes or so for a full 5k load. It's nothing special. |

I would say that p0 stuff could be abstained like that if your planet is needing something else to make p3 or p4. One load of a venture is half a p1 so it's not really worth it unless you need a little something extra.

I'm an alpha, I upgrade periodically as I have time to play and really lean hard on the game.
As a alpha, I make a good bit of ISK mining and scanning sites... In my scan venture, scan while I mine. When I pick up something I zoom and get the aproprate ship needed. Sometimes my speed salvager Atron, or my salvage venture, or algos, or even my vexor. I have plenty of other ships, but that's the main ones I love.
I've made almost 700 mill ISK and 300,000 m3 of ore waiting to be refined for me by my corp in 2 months since being an alpha playing maybe a hour a day. That's not a whole lot but I make due. Yes I miss my Mack and mining barges, I would be well over 2.5 mill in ore with it big difference, but not insurmountable. I've been thing about jumping over to FW and do a little bit of that to get in the store.
But what am I making all this money for I don't even really plan on going battleship or higher. The only reason I really need to sub for is my barges back and A lot of skills to 5 in industry and scanning and a lot of ship command and weapons and a core skills.
Eve is very open to all alphas and no limit on how much they can make, it just takes longer and no passive income like pi and farming(skills blocked). I would be very grateful if I had a mining barge... But there is such thing as to much for nothing.

That would be cool. 10-15k ore hold
My only stipulation is
holy **** ccp STOP MAKING THEM YELLOW. yellow is the worst color. And even with skins you cant get rid of the nasty yellow trim on ore ships. It makes ore ships completely unusable. |

Go to a 0.7 system or lower, two things:
- ORE is richer, more variety and, - You can anchor secured cargo cans.
I've seen a lot of people set up rings of cans around a belt that lets them mine and dump the ore into a Giant Sec. Cargo can. Then they come back later in a industrial and haul it off.
In the days before Orcas this was the way to go for a solo miner with out mining barge skills. |

Just thinking, you could use the Gnosis for that, right? it get's a 25% bonus to links, that should work with mining links too. Anyone seen a Gnosis boosted fleet of Ventures out there? And it can fleet a set of Mining Drones too.
plus there would be a gank security. Proper mining fleet with proper escort.

If anyone that liked, disliked or wanted to flame away on my idea wants to comment or troll.
Have you heard anything I've said?
You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?
That's right.
Had to end sometime.

I'm sure I would have 4or5 out there just so I don't feel lonely lol Technically they can - it's just hard. You can use two computers for two accounts, and more if you use VM's, if I recall. Ofc, I never tried it cuz it might fall under exploits. |

I don't know how it would fit in between barges and frigates, but it's the only thing I can cone up with. That's funny now that u mention it... The badges and exumers are the same size as a destroyer class ship. With only 2 size classes, friggets are the bottom 50% of the T1 ship scale.

If you go by the rigs then they are medium size, though clearly that doesnt mean much in practice.
Skiffs and procurers tank more like BS and BC than cruisers, macks fair okay mostly but really don't really tank heavy dps super well. Hulks meh. |
