Right now in jita there's no compressed ores for sale. The compression efficiencies on the rorqual are terrible compared to many modules. Also the fact that you have to compress in lowsec or 0.0 is huge disadvantage.

I think we should push to have ccp revisit the rorqual. Bring the efficiencies way above any modules also perhaps consider bringing the rorqual to highsec because logistics of the whole thing being in lowsec-0.0 is a big hamper.

No. The rorqual should NEVER come to hisec.

Compression of ores is to make it easier to move them from mining location to refining location (also, in W-space, to cram more ore into the refinery array). Who cares that they're not in Jita anyway?

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Compressed ores are SUPPOSED to assist with the miners bringing more ore in less trips from point A to Point B for refine. No one who can consider themselves an "established" industry player in low- or null- will sell Ores, because they should have perfect refine.

going out of your way to sel Ores on market is like trying to sell an unbuilt car on a car lot. taking it further, if your out in low- or null- WITH A RORQUAL, wth are you mining to sell? did no one inform you profit margins are higher to just make a finished product? build some ships and sell them to corp/alliance-mates or on open amrket in low/null, trust me, plenty of FW people will be looking to buy (freaking caldari and minmatar lolfit fleets suiciding Deathstar POS's for "lulz" makes a GREAT market to sell ships in.)
