I propose a new mining ganglink to transfer any damage from any fleetboosted exhumer to the booster.
Such a ganglink can only be fitted to the Orca/Rorqual.

WTF?

if you want a defensive ganglink for the miners... use Shield Harmonizing

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Hey, an idea that can make Orcas explode REALLY fast.

I, too, LOVE this idea. off grid orcas can be hard to find.. instead warp 10 tempests to the exhumer, blow up the orca, finish the exhumer with a brutix. +1

And so OP contributed to the death of a million failfit OGBs...

EDIT: Actually, if it transfers ALL damage to the OGB as OP says, then with several Logis sitting around the Orca it can live forever and, by extension, allow its linked ships to live forever.

Either way, this teeters from one side of absurd to the other.

Shocked

This idea is so....bad.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.
