Also mining will become a mandatory hard requirement for ships, and because of the basket and access requirements, that equates to an actual person doing a couple of hours of mining for every battlecruiser loss. ie the current highsec daily trade in battlecruisers alone is probably worth 10,000 man hours in mining daily under this new plan. The basket requirements for all of this stuff will drag the lowends along with the highends.
Prices will simply rise until they hurt consumption.
Until now, anomalies giving more ISK than mining. When you are a miner in 0.0 you have to provide: a hauler char/a bonus char a tank char a miner With 2 pilots in 2 tengus, a skilled pilot makes in anomalies 40million/tick. So the prices for minerals will be rising.
The latter will be reduced, which puts a bit of a cap on the mineral prices from nullsec. Furthermore, not all nullsec miners use hauling chars, or defensive characters. Usually mining corps are embedded within pvp alliances, and there are always ample amounts of pvp'ers online to go after baddies when they show up.
As mineral prices rise, mining players and corporations will start getting some much delayed respect from the pvp'ers who will need to rely on their cheap minerals, since a PLEX won't buy as much as it used to.
Also with the increasing profitability of minerals, you'll see more corps/alliances battling over wormhole space as well, since every WH provides a nigh daily grav site with ABC ore, and often connections to highsec. This makes getting the ore to highsec easy and safer than getting it there from nullsec, and thus makes WHs a much desired asset in the months to come. You'll see a lot of mining in C1s and C2s.
You're going to be seeing a lot more mining corporations in all parts of EVE, and most noticeably in nullsec, doing more than just supplying their own alliance's goods, but also shipping more of it off to highsec. If I were you, I'd be investing in Hulks, Orcas, and Rorquals - Not Zydrine. |
