the time it takes to mine an ice anomaly is irrelevant. (also the minimum number of collaborators is 2501 accounts, 2500 in skiffs + an orca. clears out a belt in about 28 seconds.)



I get you point, but you are wrong about the 28 seconds. No matter how many ships you have in belt, the absolute fastest it could be mined out is one complete cycle,twice the ships will not make the cycles any faster. Even after the cycle reduction is is still almost 1 minute.

The belts I have been mining in last 30-40 minutes, a little longer the further from prime time you get. Even showing up late I was able to nearly fill all my macks, just not ICE left for a second trip. I expect it will slow down after a week or two though.


one cycle is 28 seconds....

You know very well how I am unloading ice since weeks Blink and I still have immense loads. I don't care if it'll dip for some months or 1 year, in the worst case I can use it to fuel my towers but you know there won't be a worst case.


I dont think it will dip for long...people bore of things they dont like doing :p



You should see this one guy and his setup can keep the market supplied easily,

1. Orca with boosts.

2. Obelisk for hauling.

3. Like 20 or more skiffs.

He kills ice roids in 10 minutes usually.

I left in my procurer....seeing him made me feel like I was working for peanuts compared with what he makes, he fills that obelisk atleast twice before that field is dead.

IMO, you win. You're playing a game, he has a job. He has to plex those 20+ accounts, or pay subs on them.
