EVE General Discussion

The ones who build Catalysts are the ones you have to watch.

Nah there's nothing in Catalyst production margins wise.

There's a decent profit on capital investment, but a terrible, terrible return measured per manufacturing line hour used.

The same is true for all the other parts of a Gankalyst.

It's much more profitable to use those slots to build Mackinaws, sell them to gankees, then use those profits to buy Catalysts from the market, allowing the cycle to repeat.

All you're "X-aggedon" can ever hope to accomplish is for CCP to nerf Catalysts.

Y'know why? Because all those "bots" you complain about are feeding minerals into Jita, and from Jita into the nullblock groups who use them to build those 2000+ ship supercap fleets that they all love so much.

Now take a look at the CSM lineup. Notice anything? You've got one EvE Uni guy and all the rest are nullblock lobbyists. So in the end when you shoot at hisec miners what you're really doing is shooting at the CSMs... by about two degrees of separation.

So when those Catalysts get nerfed down to the point where you need two dozen to gank a single untanked Retriever, well, don't say I didn't warn you.

Last time I looked my alt in a skiff had 108,000 ehp to worst resist (with a mining mod and lasers fitted). Last time I looked it was easy enough to get a procurer to do 55k ehp. There is no pressing need to nerf destroyers, as having more hitpoints than a cargo orca is easily within the reach of the average miner.

If they ruin catalysts, then they also ruin the skiff / procrurer as valid fitting options.

Note that having to kill a large number of skiffs would be so improbable due to GCC consumption, that any significant population shift to skiffs would essentially give herd immunity to most miners in them.

Words of wisdom right here, in the EVE forums?

Have an internet cookie, sir.

This just in: Having fun is irrelevant in a video game.

I'm certain that more people know the New Order than you, so why don't you come down from your high horse, you nobody. :)

Hey i could totally finance that if i had a fleet of bot miners.
oh wait the cognitve dissonance...
there that's better.

Unlike the Erotica - mayonnaise - 1 etc, I do not pretend to be important.

Hahaha I totally understand what you mean, but Erotica herself isn't everybody else of the New Order and it's irrelevant what they think of themselvses. The group is well known, thus it's not nobodies.
