The changes to the hacking mechanics are designed to coincide with a change to exploration sites. The change to the sites is that the rats have been removed! That makes the new mechanic viable.

Here's my question: how will the changes to hacking be implemented in Incursions? The new interface seems fine so long as you're not being shot at by Sansha rats on steroids... I think the only sites with hackable towers are OTAs and mothership sites so its not a massive issue, but these are definitely combat sites rather than exploration sites. Please take that into consideration.

I am thinking that if you need to play the mini game to perform the hack, that this role will be pushed to the soon to be on grid booster. They will also probably fit an AB to do the ore running as well, this will leave both scimis with the 4 link fit, so basically all the dps should get a link.

But it would be nice if this was clarified if the mini game would also be apart incursions as well.

Lowering the average to make you look better since 2012.
