Not that this guy works for CCP or makes any important decisions, ever, game wise.
But it just bugs me the exageration he puts on the idea within his imagination.

What we as miners would like is a vessel to train for after an Exhumer.
Just like every other category of ship.
No it would not CRASH the the mineral prices. They can tweek the ships yield capacity not to do so.
Simple as THAT.

And EDIT:
Shocked
If I were to put a personal intergection on to this. Basically just a ship you train for for say 90+ days with a slight bit better yeild with a LARGE cargo hold, so that if I say wanted to take a trip into null to do some Cosmic Anomaly mining or some ICE mining, in a system I found fairly quiet. The jumps back into high sec wouldn't neagte my ISK/hr.
And with all the problems youre going to think iof, THE GAME DESIGNERS can think of a solution. I don't even want to hear another Combat Pilot Theorize about how it would OUTRIGHT RUIN THE GAME, like things with in the game cant be managed by SOMEBODY.

So you want something to replace the both the hulk and the mackinaw and make them totally redundant? No.

Yield or ore bay space. Pick one.

To be short and sweet. It wouldnt hurt mineral prices to have one ship....ONE ship that takes above a month to train for that isn't an Exhumer that could Mine.



Capital miners would crash the mineral market and toss highsec miners back into poverty.

As much as I want to see a sieged Mining Barge so I can drop on a fleet of them and kill them.

Let me paint a pretty picture for you. Master Null sec Miner A gets 30 of these and uses ISboxer to completely strip an entire system with max rorqual boosts over the next 2-3 hours. He jumps to the next system over rinses and repeats. Now with his metric **** ton of ore he compresses it all at a pos instantly loads it into a jf or 2 and drops it off at super capital building depot X

Don't we need more supercapitals in the game?? Won't that fix the blue donut issue?

On a serious note. If you need something to train after exumer 5 - I recommend a hurricane w/ T2 autocannons. Once you master that go for sleipnir w/ same and add 2 neuts and an ASB. Go and pvp.

I'm not saying mining is bad (I can fly exumers quite well) I'm saying there is a whole lot of other eve out there to play. Go experience it.

I'm not knocking mining, but at the end of the day you're warping to a belt/anom activating a mining lazor on a fake space rock and watching your cargo hold fill up and the rock disappear. I'm surprised that you are surprised you hit the end point of mining. There is only so much you can do to that eve activity. It's not a lot to work with. More more more per unit time doesn't change the warp - activate - wait cycle. 3 months from now when you finish off capital miner to 5..... what's next?

Eve is a sandbox - go play. Expecting great things from the most basic activity in this game is just going to leave you frustrated.
