The days of missioning are pretty much dead unless ccp fixes the last update. I am not trying to pve with friends so some **** can kill the frigs while I kill the BS. I pvp more then pve but missions are my only source of income and I fly a drone boat on my main so with no income I am just going to Unsub **** CCP

You didn't really point out the problem you're having. What's wrong with the missions? Or is it your drones?

I wonder why does ccp put in updates that players definitely not gonna like. I mean i can see that nerfing drone region in past patch was intended to help miners, and nerf manufacture in that region. But this AI change doesnt benefit anyone, i dont see that sense in it.

A general reduction in isk by increasing mission time helps curb inflation. People can't spend 10 times jita costs for an item instation as they have less isk. They travel to jita instead. Area traders ate forced to slowly reduce prices to sell. They buy less in bulk from jita and other hubs, so again demand is lowered, prices decline as well.

Additionally, less meta mods on the market because less missions run increase their cost. As their costs rise, t2 become a cheaper alternative in some cases. (any one remember when meta 4 target painters were in the 6 mil isk range?)

So basically, it helps the t2 market in some cases and fights inflation. So it benefits all of eve.

My mission times have decreased. So win/win.

Not much problem doing AE in my Navy Domi. Just watch the light drones close. Might change to just mediums and sentries until I know how to keep the lights safe.

I don't get it tell me people are not this obtuse? I run my BS with my only defense against frigs and webbing drones is my drones, I did notice that my drones got chewed on more but after some tactic change there's np, I'm still getting through missions at the same or better because frig rats seem more aggressive and come right to me when on my doorstep I release my drones...np.

Can someone please tell me how to get to sesame street?

There's such a simple way, to prevent your drones from getting aggro.

little hint: Ravens and Golems were fitted with stuff like that allready, prepatch
