Say goodbye to any T2 in highsec then. As it needs moongoo. which means, pretty much, nullsec.


Wait. You mean that no one area of space can have everything? Is it possible that they're in some way dependent on each other as part of a bigger picture? That interaction between the two is a necessity by design?

Say it ain't so. Shocked


shuush you!! No one is supposed to think like that. ;)

while not exactly newbies, it is also important for fledgling alliances to have enough incentive to carve out a foothold in nullsec. while most constellation may lack tech moons, the proposed improvements to industry may be the ticket, as an accessible source of income for line members who actually use the space actively as intended.

Even if you insane highsec bears don't think nullsec should have industry that is better than highsec, it's pretty unarguable that the current industry capabilities in nullsec are a joke and need a big boost. Even if it were brought up to say 75% of that of highsec, nullsec would be a much more vibrant place

There's no reason to keep null sec industry below 100% of hi sec.

you are saying it like anyone from high-sec would care about how vibrant is 0.0 Shocked

the main problem here is: this rebalance can't be done without nerfing high-sec. NERFING HIGH-SEC BECAUSE OF SOME WHINY 0.0-SECCERS. That's why you will not see enough support from high-seccers.

I think highsec industry needs heavily nerfed, and nullsec brought up to above that of the new highsec level.

Though I guess some people would say "no nullsec needs to be worse, so there's some reliance on highsec, you can't have one bit of eve that does everything the best!" or whatever - but even if you allow that as a possible argument, the current level is just ridiculous

What nerf specifically are you refering too?

I tried saying that so many times but no.

For some reason they are strongly convinced that manufacturing high tech stuff in the middle of a Somalian battlefield is the most natural thing ever and HAS to be vastly more $$$ rewarding than doing it in China.

Again, you are arguing the ontological fallacy: "because things are this way, that's the way they must be."

Since I have explained this to you at least twice, at this stage you're just trolling.

The tl;dr is that the "Nullsec = Somalia" is nothing more or less than a giant assumption that you're asserting without any evidence or analysis of why that might be other than HURR DURR NULLBEARS R ALL BIG DUMBO GANKERS DURR HURR stereotyping.

Frankly, it's beneath you, but on the other hand it does encourage me in my campaign, since if you had an argument with a shred of intellectual consistency, you'd be using that. And you're not.

To get what you want WRT industry, sovereignty rules need to change first.

You can't have the benefits of exclusivity and inclusivity at the same time, among other reasons because it's bad game design.

You haven't provided any convincing arguments that industrial endeavours would never be undertaken in null other than saying "SOMALIA! BATTLEFIELD!!!111" nonsense. The reason it doesn't happen at the moment is because how easy and cheap it is in highsec is ridiculous. It's not because omg somalia battlefield, it's because of how pitiful the capabilities are - as has been discussed before, there's more slots in sobaseki than there are in entire nullsec REGIONS - and how there's at the moment no downside to using highsec instead. If the capabilities were buffed, and if there were some downside (say for example a 5% tax on slots in highsec) then I very easily see a lot more people doing their work in null.

It is a non-existent problem.

Let me ask you honestly:
If killing sleeper rats netted you about 10 mil/hour on average in a C5 or C6 with an optimal fleet comp and tactics, but still required the same fleet compositions, effort, risk, infrastructure, etc. to kill them, would you begrudge wormhole dwellers for going to highsec to run lvl 4 missions or incursions to get a reasonable income? Would you consider their requests to buff w-space PVE reasonable? Or would you tell them to HTFU and get a bigger and more expensive fleet composition?


I understand what you're saying. I even understand why null wants better industry. So understand what I'm about to tell you. Nullsec has the best of almost everything in the game. It's rats, second only to w-space. But since we don't get bpc or mod drops worth billions, the loot froom for our sleepers might barely make up for it over time. You have Sov, no other space has that ability. You have outposts that belong to the space holding alliance. No other space has that. You have the best DED & cosmos sites in the game. You have the best incursions. You have the best ore and the best ice. You have the best PI. You have supercaps that you can cyno around. Try that in w-space: cant have supercaps cant cyno. And on top of all that you have moon-goo to net you billions of isk per month for doing nothing.

Null has not spent its time building bridges to the rest of the game. It has, instead, spent it telling CCP why it should have everything and everyone else nothing.

So, as a member of the rest of the game, your cries of disproportionate distribution of something else in the game that doesn't vastly slant the game in null's favor yet again is falling on my deaf ears especially what you're talking about wanting to do what could be done if only you take that moon-goo and invest it in pos production infrastructure. As far as I'm concerned, it appears to me you just don't want to make that investment. Instead, what you want is a vast industrial complex that is immune to destruction. Oh sure, they can change hands but there is no lost investment. And in a mostly blue null, you haven't really lost anything.

Don't ban me, bro!

Seems everyone is avoiding the elephant in the room.

If it were harder to move the goods from Null to Jita, then manufacturing and trade would *need* to move to where it is needed (back to null). We would once again see large hauling caravans complete with escort when trade between regions was absolutely needed.

I only say this because it is the very same argument as those who want to nerf the hell out of hisec.

Given that nerfing hisec into oblivion will also have the side effect of making new players less likely to hang onto the game long enough to see null/wh/whatever, I know which option I would prefer.

It all comes down to the same argument regarding "Power projection". This is simply "Commerce Projection".

"Jumping" made the universe too small.

Crime, it is not a "career", it is a lifestyle.

Just give the null-sec zealots everything they want; and a bit extra for luck.

Null sec/WH>Low Sec> High Sec.

High sec isk should be deplorable, there is zero reason to lose a single ship in high sec and ISK should reflect this. It should be imposible to plex an account in high sec via missions, industry and mining to encourage people to leave. High sec faction space should be seperated low sec so as to create and island of high between all factions. Market PVP is excused as high should remain the focus for trade.
