Except to compete with the Bot Miners, you have to either:

1. Bot Mine
2. Play like a Bot.

And rather than disrupt this cycle in any way, CCP is pandering to the bots. Again.

As for the "Nullsec alliances don't use bots" claptrap, here's the important difference between Nullsec and Highsec Botters:

When a Nullsec idiot is botting, he's shot. Often by blues. Because he's botting and AFK, he's easy pickings. His **** is taken from him, sold or used elsewhere, and when he comes back to the keyboard he's either the subject of mockery or outright kicked from the corp he's in.

When a Highsec idiot is botting, a magical super-ship police force shows up to protect him. Now, the community can still deal with these idiots, but only at a large investment of time and ships -- and the ships have to be replaced, which directly supports the ecosystem that causes the botters in the first place.

Oh, and did I mention that CCP seem to be hell bent on making this magical super-ship police force stronger, and making the bots even harder to kill? Why? Because the botters pay for 23+ accounts and they're worth more than us.


How much your ratting bots make per hour? 1b?

Goonswarm has no ratting bots. Sorry, but we don't. We don't even allow people to talk about stuff that's against the EULA. If you think otherwise, you can report any bot in game by a simple right click, I welcome you to do so, so I can laugh at you.

And even if you were doing ratting in nullsec at the absolute most absurd rate, you wouldn't hit 1b per hour. That's 334 million per tick. That's about 280m more a tick than I've ever seen someone hit, even the most obsessed PVErs around me with capital ship support.

Get a goddamned clue. When you say stupid **** like that you are just showing off that you have no, absolutely no clue what you're talking about.

According to stats on SiSi untanked Hulk has ~9500 EHP. It's still possible to gank in hisec.

Fyi, brick tanked Damnation and Proteus can be ganked in hisec too. You just need to bring more dps. EVE is MMO after all. Deal with it.

Brick-tanked Procurer costs ~15 mil or so tops.

Brick-tanked Damnation is ~200-300mil.

See the problem?

So lemme get this straight. It is wrong that a procurer can get 70kehp while costing 15 mil and a damnation only gets only 260kehp for 215 mil.

But it's ok that a 3x 10 mil catalyst can gank a 300 mil well tanked hulk?:P

So whats your take on the augoror which costs 4 mill but gets overe 60k ehp?

So lets rebalance allships aroud the costs shall we? The tank, dps and velocitys will for now on be bought with isk. If you want some extra you can use some aurums to buff it up abit more.

Variation is good, but extreme outliers as what are being created now only come from an extreme lack of consideration for balance.

Wait until it goes live, if it does, and I am certain this will be made abundantly clear.

I'm just saying that it would nice if the DEVs looked at production requirements when making vast changes to ships.

If miners wanted to be able to fit their ship by themselve, maybe they shouldnt have created dozens of threads on the forums on the "I cant fit my ship to save my life" variation.

Seriously, when was the last time you saw Procurer mining in hisec and you didn't laugh?


I have seen 1 in 4 years.

I completely agree in making all mining barges around same cost and same with exhumers. This ofcourse also to be added for frigates, cruisers and soforth as the tiericide goes on. The problem of new players gaining access to ships after increased costs would be easily tackled by having tutorial missions award one t1 cruiser, one t1 frigate and one t1 mining barge/mining frigate. Those missions would ofcourse be later on in the tutorials for the cruisers and mining barge. This would give new playeres easy access to see what those ships are before having abundance of resources to pour in them.

When a nullsec idiot is botting, he's in a blued renter alliance where everybody know about him and pretend to look the other side. All the land owners care about are the billions they can monthly charge to close 1, 2 and even 3 eyes.
