So let me get this straight, People are running the mother-ship site, to end incursions (its not ending them early as the monther-ship is the end of it) and this is an issue? Its part of the incursion, its not a private mission or anything like that its a public event. They are just as entitled to finish that site as anyone else is and the guys wanting to farm the incursion longer need to go find another incursion somewhere else.
How is this even greifing they are playing the incursion as intended. They are finishing it up and ending it. I know if the incursion was in my area I would be glad it was over, as I don't run them, so they get in my way with all the nerfs they cause to an area.
If you guys don't like it go run lowsec or 0.0 incursions they are less likely to bother you there. Hell if they will allow it I might even start joining in on the fleets to remove the incursions so they don't disrupt the game play of the rest of us that live in the area your farming.
There are more people in this game then you incursion farmers, and we are the ones sitting in that space not able to run our missions effectively due to your incursion farming. Take your self entitlement and move on already, your no better then the rest of us and deserve no more help or input from ccp then the rest of us do.

Incursion runners, you have played yourselves.
Go and buy some Tornadoes. Fit them. Find the mothership. Kill the griefers, PROTECT THAT FAT COW FROM WHICH THY SUCKLES! Rinse and repeat while farming away. BUT DAMN IT KEEP THAT MOTHER ALIVE! If anyone complains about you "farming," just hide behind a magic roleplaying justification cloak, "you are herding sansha slaves who are responding to their calls of their mother. Keeping the mothership alive will call out more slaves, which you kill, keeping New Eden safer."
Stop complaining. It just looks bad.

Back on topic... the biggest problem with incursions is that they pay out too much in rewards (compared with any other ISK generating activity) .

Ok, Those of you whom don't know who Darius III is : he only griefs, I remember him camping gates in Jita and WDin haulers and miners just for the QQ tears. He is like the normal griefer....lives in his parents basement, has never had a g/f, mad at all of society, his corp isn't good enough to hold sov. He got blackballed by btl from incursion fleets because he is a griefer / ganker so now he kills moms to end Incursions .....i would be in TS or Vent which ever his corp uses he says "its on bra". have meet his kind in every mmo I have played from Everquest till now, he is home right now in the "Command Center" as he calls the room in his parents basement, laughing at this post, which is fine odds are I'm right. I do agree BTL has to much power over Incursions, thats why I left to do other stuff. Have fun Darius III

So it seems that the incursion runners found a workaround or loophole to farm ISK by drawing out the incursions as long as possible. Likewise, this was not an intended mechanic, and CCP/CSM are discussing a way to fix the issue.
It is not a nerf.... It's a "fix" to correct an oversight on their part and bring incursions back in line with the original working concept that their were implemented under in the first place.
Hey guys, remember when a group of creative capsuleers found a work-around and were able to get entire incursion fleets massacred by concord through creative use of logistics and GCC flags? Remember when CCP fixed that in order to prevent it from happening as it was simply an oversight on their part and was not working as intended?
Oh yeah, and remember when a whole bunch of players raged at the slightest mention of fixing that workaround that allowed sites to be farmed non stop as isk faucets? It was that time when a whole bunch of self righteous and arrogant forum warriors decided that they were entitled to special privileges allowing them to skirt around the game mechanics with impunity. You know, I think those were the very same people that cried wolf to CCP and prompted the fix to prevent their incursion fleets from being Concorded! Apparently, CCP is only allowed to take action and fix something if it doesn't stand against what THEY WANT.
Oh wait, that's whats going on right now! My mistake. |

it actually is.
Imagine that incursion bears are driving the prices for everything in eve upwards due to inflation.
So a regular pvper with limited income can now hardly afford a PLEX thanks (in part) to the incursion isk inflation.
So bears are griefing said l33t pvpers, occasionally forcing them out of the game. Isn't it ironic |

it was a mistake from CCP to make the incursions farmable in the first place.
- penalties are to low, there is no good reason to kick the sansha out of the constellation (no gatecamps, nothing) - HQ rewards are to low - sites do not escalate: if you gain control, easy sites should disappear until only the bos site is left
the current system just invites to farm it. I would be curious if it was intended this way or not - i really hope not.

While I don't care how anyone runs incursions, I've got to ask, "Isn't killing the mom the original point of incursions"?
I'm pretty sure that the end game of the Incursion is to kill the mom. So, working as intended. These guys aren't even manipulating Incursions. In fact, it is the farmers that are manipulating Incursions. Brick Squad is following the natural progress of the feature.
If they're ruining your fun by killing the mom then perhaps you should get there first? We want breast augmentations and sluttier clothing in the NeX! |

Hisec PVE should give you less money and more fun. It would be even then.
So highsec incursions are better payouts than their low/null counterparts? I agree, that is unbalanced. On the same note, high sec is more fun, absolutely, but thats due to not being a slave to a null overlord and being used as nothing but pawns to line someody elses pocket and not having the brains to stop for a moment and question it. Null bears deserve their own fate for being mindless drones. Reminds me of the borg in a way lol Yes. Try this: First go in hisec and take part in an incursion fleet, and write down how much you get isk vs hour wise. Then go into lowsec or nullsec and try do the same without being blown up. If you can, you'll get more money, if you cannot you'll get less money afterall, in the sense that it's economically convenient to stay in highsec if you're not part of a corporation that can afford staying in lowsec/0.0 and protect their PVE operations. Just that, prove me wrong. And stop trollling about "nullsec drones" please.
Ignoring low sec for the sake of making my point, isnt the whole point of null sec to own your own space?
I would imagine owning your own systems, and having scouts everywhere ( as i imagine every null corp/alliance would do ) would give ample protection against any "unexpected visitors" to the incursions. Not 100% sure but i presume cyno jammers are in effect even in null sec incursions, so unless your part of a fail corp your going to have 30mins advance warning of any undesirables crashing your null incursions fountains and costing you shineys.
To answer your question though, it really depends on the circumstances.
Personally, i only fly shield logistics, either basi or schimi so my outlay is relatively small compared to say a NM or Mach.
IF i get a fleet right away upon logging in, and IF that fleet is full of shineys who encounter zero competition for sites for a whole 60mins, than yes, i could rack up 120-160m per hour blitzing VG's at approx 3mins per site.
But you guys just presume thats the status quo for incursions. Its not. Its really really not lol
It might take 30-60 mins to find a fleet, that fleet might be a fail fleet consisting of missile boats with **** poor dps so the sites might take 6-7 mins to blitz. Take that into account and im making maybe 50-60m per hour, again, it all depends on drop outs and bio breaks too, and thats only slightly better than L4's.
You guys need to get it out of your heads that VG's are all un contested sites for hours on end and fleets dont fight to run them every minute of everyday a site is up.
The 'possible' rewards for incursions dont exist in reality as fleets, no matter how shiney, will always be up against half a dozen other shiney fleets all vying for the same site.
The realistic isk per hour for high sec incursions probably averages out at about 70m or so give or take. Sure some people will be making upwards of 100m per hour, but then others will be bearly scraping 40m per hour doing the same thing.
You guys are mounting an offensive against a make believe isk per hour ratio. |

Oh really? So what next on the witch hunt? L4 missions because they pay an easy 40m ph.
If you even play eve and dont top 40m per hour doing pve in high sec than you need to go back to playing wow or my horse and me.
What about exploration? Lets look at that for a moment, due to the incursions situation i decided to explore the forge for 10hrs yesterday.
I found 4 or 5 radars that gave me approx 15m each and 5 GSO's which netted me 3 C-type shield boosters at 350m each and numerous hardeners ranging from 10m each to 50m each. In all i finished my day 1.2b up on when i started.
Theres your 120m per hour in high sec, go cry to CCP and if you cry enough tears maybe they'll buckle under the pressure of bitter null bears and change the mechanics to suit you. Not like it hasnt happened before right?......

did you really miss several years of complaints about the risk vs reward ratio for lvl4s being completely skewed?
For years everybody's favorite complaint was that lvl4s were never intended to be done solo and should be moved to low-sec.
Before Dominion 0.0 dwellers had to have mission-running alts in high-sec to finance their pvp and ever since the CA nerf they have their Incursion alts in high-sec for the same reasons.
Only for a short time between the release of Dominion and the launch of incursions life was good (but during that time pvp sucked due to lag). |

Of course bounties account for substantially more of an isk faucet overall than incursions alone. By quite a considerable amount. Interesting then that the best bounties are in null sec who are interested in nerfing incurions instead. In the worst case scenario as some null bears have suggested simply removing the high sec earning altogether from them whilst retaining theirs which have much better earnings anyhow atm.
And you wonder why High sec pilots are worried about these biast motivations? |

Well, no. The linguistic construct "Statement A, but Statement B" is usually used when quality if fine but quantity is not or vice versa. It would be nice if the person who wrote the CSM minutes could clarify what that fairly loose statement actually means. More gameplay, less waitplay! Down with AFK-Cloaking! Down with AFK-Alliances!
