Hello I wonder if other corporations have noticed a significant increase in conection wormholes
I wonder if this is a bad week we go through on the presence of these wormholes or a permant nerf of wormholes (that is to say not one static, but four - five Wormhole regulary)





that what I noticed and that the majority have responded on this forum, there is a significant and regular Augementation of wormholes (I mean of course inter-connections wormholes) I think it is a nerf,

but why ?

because the majority of wormhole corporation is small groups of 10-20 players and bind us one to another, although each coproration has its own interests , it'll create a situation of perpetual struggle

Example I lived and I've seen, it's simple, any corporation we probed and they probed us too. did not fight did not make pve. they were just watching us and we even

that is why I think it is a nerf.

this is the strategy of chains (linking people has different interests to play together. inevitably leads to conflicts and incapacity to do anything itself)

Other pilots in my alliance have noticed this as well...k162s into system spawning DURING DT. It would be an incredible change to wormholes if true.

Also, how is this possibly a nerf?

If you want to be able to run sites easily without being disturbed or interacting with other people, might I suggest you move to null sec.

In the last few days, I've had an average of 1-2 new incoming WHs in my system each day. Usually I don't get any, but the streak isn't really long enough to call it anything other than random yet. It's certainly higher than usual, but random is random.

I have noticed (from sig IDs) that many of them are from at or before downtime, but it had been several hours before downtime that I last scanned. I'll stay up till DT tonight and report my findings...

You are subject to what I call the "When it Rains, it Pours" k162s effect.

You've probably been going along all hunky dorie, and then BAM! Two C3 non-statics into your c5 even though those things are supposed to be rare as hell but they BOTH go RIGHT TO YOU! And what's that on the horizon? Two null-secs!

Those are incomings from the chinese server.
On a more serious note, the fundamental rule is "someone has to activate a hole". Without it you get a k162 without someone to kill on the other side What?

Have noticed this also in both our holes ^^

Possibly just random chance, but it seems to have been consistent for us in the past week or so. I'll keep some limbs crossed because...

Which is why it would be such a fundamental change if CCP ever altered the mechanics. One of my pilots said he was having k162s spawn DURING DT (had probes watching signatures both immediately before and after DT). Which, if verified, means the database was triggering them, not actual players.

Could potentially interconnect WH space a lot more, which we need.

Well, you can have up to 6 connections to your WH. So be glad it's only 5.
You might be happy that probably 4 of them 5 might be carebears, so you could easily cycle those hole's and do your ratting.

My personal feeling is that we've been running in to others more frequently this last couple of days. Also we've been reconnecting to our previous chains more frequently.... Bug/nerf/buff/whatever... I'm not complaining :)

That could also mean that dt could activate whs at random or the statics. But dont take out of the table that the players spawn the k162 from their origin points.

Bob Artis, you will be missed.

I also heard ribbon drops are down and anoms stopped spawning in everyone's home WH.

It's a conspiracy.

Probably just the nature of Eve's random - it can do some funny stuff at times.

It could also mean people are just more actively scanning, of course...

We haven't seen much out of the norm in our C5, though this week we did have an unusually high number of Null sec connections. Not that we were complaining!

Personal record for number of holes connected to the same one is 12. 7 incoming and 5 outgoing.
