But you cut yield to the point you may as well be in an insured covetor instead, with zero tank, and a small loss if your ganked. If you use the lows for tank you get less yield as a mining BS. But it's well known, that CCP HATE miner+industrials (check my sig). - bad joke CPU + Grid - bad joke anti-gang. Anti passive targeter? Anti cargo scan? WHERE ARE THEY??? - bad joke slot layouts. Multi million ISK BC sice hull with less slots then a damn T1 frigat?? - agility and speed like rocks And all this for what? A tiny bit of more cargo space? one word: STUPID! The Orca isn't actually a capital. It's an Industrial Command Ship. The Rorqual is the Capital Industrial.
First it is listed as: ships -> CAPITAL ships -> CAPITAL industrial ship -> ore -> Orca So it IS a capital!
Second even if you see it just as a Battleship size (which it isn't as it would be listed as Battleships) .. Show me any other BS with 2-4-3 slot layout and just 430 CPU 960 PG.
For comperision: Rifter 3-3-4 = same number of slots Drake 525 CPU 850 PG = CAPITAL industrial has slightly better PG but worth CPU then a Battlecruiser
Dude, that's nothing but a big fat bad joke! Why the hell can't I fitt capital repairs or shield booster on an Orca ... it's an CAPITAL ship! |

Oh it's the players that are at fault, that old canard just doesn't fly. Try it on a noobie who has never heard it before.

Wow, you mean I can't optimize my hulk to have full mining capability and an unbreakable tank? WTF CCP
Oh wait, if I drop down to t1 strip miners, fit shield resistance mods + shield booster in mid, use resistance rigs, and still keep MLU IIx2....I now have a decent tank and decent mining? And if I have two of these with shield logi drones, it takes even longer to kill?
My word, I'm confused now. |

Hell, most of you fit 1600mm plates (BS SIZE) or Large Shield Extender (BS SIZE) or X-Large Booster (BS SIZE) on everything starting from Cruiser hulls.
From your argument NOTHING should be able to fit a 1600mm or Large Shield Extender EXCEPT Battleships.
By by HACs and Drakes with DOUBLE BS moduls!
But no, this would hurt your playstyle. But industrials/miners are third class players anyway right? So why should they get the same fitting rights as you get? Why the hell can't I fitt capital repairs or shield booster on an Orca ... it's an CAPITAL ship! |

OK, lets try a different tack - modifying mining ships in a subtle way.
-> Drop cargohold to 500 m3 (allow crystals and spare mods/drones) -> Add a (non-expandable) ore bay of decent size to each class, say 5K for barges and 10K for exhumers (maybe scale across the entire set) -> re-work strip miners slightly so they drop into the ore bay
-> (optional) give exhumers the sig radius and agility one class below the barges, to allow an I-Stab/Nano agility fit for Low and Null (more risk, more reward)
This would still allow you to fit for tank or yield, and afk is still possible to some extent. But gives more possibilities on both sides (including the chance for smarter targets maybe), all with a tweak that's not related to tanking.
I may have come here from Myst Online, but that does not make me any less bloodthirsty than the average Eve player.
Just more subtle.

The buff happened to make this weapons and ships compareble to other COMBAT ships.
NOT to make your anti sozial ganker life easier!
CCP just ignored (as usual) the influence on Industrials and Miners (as CCP hate Indutrials and Miners, we all know it). Why the hell can't I fitt capital repairs or shield booster on an Orca ... it's an CAPITAL ship! |

Put another way: why on earth should they buff the Hulk just because destroyers were buffed? If it's because destroyers are often used to kill hulks, then the logic you're implying applies: they buffed the destroyers so they can kill hulks more easily, so why should they undo that buff? If it's for some other reason, then the increased ability of destroyers is irrelevant, so why bring them up?
Jojo Jackson wrote:Wrong.

NOT to make your anti sozial ganker life easier! Actually, one inevitably generates the other. Regardless, if they buffed the destroyers to improve their combat ability, then there is no reason to buff the Hulk just because they buffed the destroyers, because they have nothing to do with each other.
You can't have it both ways, and no matter which way you choose, there is no reason to buff Hulks. GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

since you don't understand ship fitting you start fitting inapproporiate deadspace mods
during the first great hulk jihad it was hilarious how many pubbies we convinced to fit a-type shield reps to resist ganks
Oh look, the dim wit troll can't help but make generalizations and use personal pronouns, assuming he knows everything about everyone. Keep proving you're one of the sheep. That's a good boy. its funny you call other people sheep while you're complaining your grazing is insufficently safe from predators highsec miners are, without exception, dimwitted idiots who deserve the destruction meeted out to them
personally if you are in a noob corp longer then 30 days you should be forced into a npc corp that can be war decced...
and if you want to kill a high sec minner you should war dec the person/corp and then kill him in a legit mannor...
or get enough ships together to effectivly bloop him... like 4 nadoes so the cost ratio is atleast half of a hulk...
kinda ironic thats its goons who complained to ccp about titans bloping thier maels/drakes when they are blobing hulks left right and center(using simular broken mechanics)...
I just think its hypocritical to complain about titans bloping drakes and then complain about people complaining about hulks being bloped... |

He gets the sec status penalty because he chooses to.
The Hulk player is at fault for being easy to kill because he chooses to be easy to kill. What's confusing you about this very simple relationship?

I expect you to use the grey matter. If you do not tank your ship and then get blown up by a destroyer it is entirely your fault. The ganker simply took advantage of your stupidity/greed. |

I can't be bothered to scrub through 80 hours of fanfest video, but it's in one of the presentations about ship iterations GÇö they show the full chart for ORE and industrial ships (which they didn't include in the blog), and the Orca apparently doesn't qualify as capital, just like what the skill reqs and (lack of) usage limitations would suggest.
