Stork DK Synthetic Frontiers Blue Federation	Posted - 2008.03.25 14:20:00 - [1] So now that the carebear dreaded Jihadswarm is nearing 1000 minerkills, should we start seeing a mineral cost increase? That would mean expensive ships which i don't want ___________ - Stork DK
Roxanna Kell FinFleet Band of Brothers	Posted - 2008.03.25 14:23:00 - [2] Slightly. but supply is still quite high atm. Drone reagion made sure of that. Quote: You are what you are, fool
Tarminic Forsaken Resistance The Last Stand	Posted - 2008.03.25 14:55:00 - [3] Originally by: Roxanna Kell Slightly. but supply is still quite high atm. Drone reagion made sure of that. Drone regions are generally a supplier of high-end minerals, not low-ends. As such the proce of high-end minerals should be relatively unaffected by Jihadswarm. It's the lower-end minerals that usually flow out of empire that could become a problem. ---------------- Tarminic - 34 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.3 (Updated 3/24)
Xanos Blackpaw The Firestorm Cartel	Posted - 2008.03.25 14:56:00 - [4] i think the goons got a hulk bpo...the price have gone down to much so now they are trying to get it up again Playing minmatar is "like going down a flight of stairs in a office chair firing an Uzi".

There are already billions upon billions of units of low end materials in space as ships or being spawned in the form of module drops. The mining 'fleet' would have to be completely decimated across ALL of EVE and all of the mission runners aswell - nobody has the capability to achieve that. C. Improved Low Sec Idea!!

I guess we have to rely on chribba for our Tritanium suply from now on. E: spelling ___________ - Stork DK
Korizan Oort Cloud Industries	Posted - 2008.03.25 15:29:00 - [7] Actually the impact on minerals prices will be very little to none. Basically the goons are nothing more then a small wasp nest trying to take on a bee hive. And the goons know this. What they are doing is creating a larger turn over for T2 ship parts. But once again the impact is small. Not that some people won't try to cash in (so to speak) on the fear factor (market wise, lack of minerals etc). So as far as impact. Well as 95 % of EVE don't read the forums, to them no impact @ all. And the Goons actions will effect some honest miners and they will be hurt, some more then others. I haven't looked @ the kill boards but I presume the Goons are not foolish enough to target the same person over and over as that could turn into a petition for grief. Perhaps the strongest show of the Goons impact is when I went up near Jita the other day following an exploration Expedition. I entered one system and noticed a good 30 of those wonderful names that made no sense @ all. Pulled up the list and sure enough there was an Ice belt in system..... So Goons have hardly even scratched the surface if a fleet of mining ships can sit within 5 jumps of Jita and mine away all day.

Nigel Tell Imperial Academy	Posted - 2008.03.25 16:09:00 - [9] They're just doing it for the attention it brings them. Seems to work.
Zeba Pator Tech School	Posted - 2008.03.25 16:13:00 - [10] And with all those kills they still havent made so much as a dent in the overall minerbase. 1000 kills sounds like alot but not if you take into consideration that there are tens of thousands of active miners in eve and the fact the goons are getting repeat kills off of the moar dense players. --------------------- Q: WTF! Why?! A: Because I can. ---------------------
The Geoman Anarchos Industrial Cooperative	Posted - 2008.03.25 16:13:00 - [11] Originally by: Nigel Tell They're just doing it for the attention it brings them. Seems to work. This. I've been watching the mineral markets pretty closely, and other than a bit of a spike in Trit prices, I haven't seen an impact, and you can't even prove conclusively that a small jump in Trit is indicative of Goon impact. And Hulk prices seem to be unaffected, and have in fact been starting to dip below the already-low $100 million mark.
Laila Eldgorn Science and Trade Institute	Posted - 2008.03.25 16:22:00 - [12] JihadSwarm will probably have reverse effect on hulk prices. More people building hulks = lower price. :p
Imperator Jora'h Hedion University	Posted - 2008.03.25 16:28:00 - [13] Last I checked trit, pye and mex prices were high. Don't forget there is a hard cap on trit prices in EVE (been awhile but IIRC it is 3.6 ISK/unit). Trit will not rise above that no matter what anyone does. Not sure if the same can be said of mex and pye...been ages since I bothered checking. -------------------------------------------------- "Of course," said my grandfather, pulling a gun from his belt as he stepped from the Time Machine, "there's no paradox if I shoot you!"
Laila Eldgorn Science and Trade Institute	Posted - 2008.03.25 16:45:00 - [14] It seems someone tinkered trit prices in empire using jihadswarm as an excuse, maybe goons :p There's no way they ganked so many hulks that it could've increased prices so much tbh. There has been increase in other mineral prices too, totally unrelated to jihadswarm.
