you'll still get the "MY HULK got blown up this is totally unfair why did my AFK untanked ship get killed in 0.5" threads because 15k ehp hulks can still be ganked with ease

on top of that you'll also see "WHY IS HISEC MINING SO UNPROFITABLE NOW REMEMBER WHEN VELDSPAR MINING NETTED 30M ISK/HR" threads

I'm going to go out on a limb here & say that you never thought of staggering your ice harvester cycles.


Achieving what? Besides being easily flagged as a bot.

nobody will care about the isk/hour ratio. minerals are used to build things. if it takes 4 hours of mining to buy something now, it'll take 4 hours after a market crash. infact, with tech nerfs and tech 2 possibly coming down in price, miners are in a better position. [as is every one else]

miners are largely unaffected by mineral prices going up and down in terms of buying and selling; it takes the same amount of time mining to buy things before and after. i made the point ages ago with the cost of a hulk.

then, 3.4isk/unit trit, 130m hulk.
now, 6.5isk/unit trit, 250m hulk.

isk/hour really doesn't matter that much.

because, as we've seen from posts, they actually want PvP removed from hisec, see all of the "well if u wan2 pvp u shuld go 2 low or null bc hi is 4 pve only" crap


Where did I say I'm against pvp in hisec?

There's actual pvp corps in hisec that don't do it for griefing, just to get their pewpew. I'm not against that at all.
I'm not against ganking stupid haulers (20 PLEXes in shuttle and so on, you get the point).
I'm not against ganking officer fit mission ship in hisec (it's just pure stupidity)...
I'm not against ganking Hulks with cargo rigs and cargohold expanders (very bad combination)...

Do you get the point?

with crimewatch, ganking idiots who officer fit their mission ships and carry 20 plexes in shuttles will mean that your mule alt will have to deal with being shot at by dudes with neutral logis that you can't shoot at

and you can't really kill that proteus yourself because, well, it's basically you vs everyone in hisec, and his RR alt that you can't shoot will keep him from dying

oh and if you bring your own RR alt everyone in hisec will be able to shoot that

you must love this, considering that you want all nonconsensual PvP eliminated from hisec

No, if you ALT TAB and stagger ice miners you appear to be a bot. In the logs you'll appear doing multiple staggered things in close time frames across multiple accounts.

What? I don't even... Lol

Keep throwing those Catalysts at my Hulk one at a time and I'm sure I can make some profit out of it.


Slight typo. Can't be profitably Ganked.

You say it can be tanked to make profitable ganking impossible. Two T1 gank fit Catalysts can destroy it in 0.5 even with maximum tank (15k EHP).

It's just another nail in the coffin.... im not interested in experiencing another Ultima Online Trammel amputation in EvE. I will never go thru that experience again, it's just too painfull.

Sad times we live, the last true old school sandbox mmo being is ripped apart. Even the forums have been "trammelized".

Way to take that 15k EHP out of context...

You were claiming Hulk is T1 cruiser.

Avg. EHP for T1 cruiser is around 10k-15k EHP.

With 2 months petition queues on some topics, better being safe than sorry. Also, no need to use stinky isboxer, even when 5 box full glass cannon missioning... "EvE is hard".

"but it's not Trammel because you can still shoot people in hisec but you'll just die instantly to a death ray that equalizes response times in 1.0 and 0.5 and we're discouraging it as much as possible!"
