But really, on a scale of 1 to copious amounts of vagisil, how butt hurt are you?

You're one of those guys that comes to a complete stop at a stop sign, waits 3 seconds, and slowly starts driving away again when its clear aren't you?

PS: I find it rather flattering that you are willing to put so much effort into defending the citizens of Missions and Complexes from all the trolls and meanies.


Emperor...why do you use vagisil in your butt? You been sharing toys again?...Shocked

+1 to the vote that some CCP Devs actually test this out before implementing it, try running each type of horde Vs each type of sanctum and see how you go.

Also +1 to bringing the old hordes back to how they were :)

it took me 15 mins before to do a site and salvage it now it takes me around 1 hour.
the system as is was before was good and with the buff they now made to the other regions it should now have ballance but no you nerfed to an point where you removed most of my corps will to play. we can earn more money in highsec just running 3 screens lvl 4 missions out here we have to kill wait for depsawn then salvage then freighter the stuff to high sec to sell it. it a ton of work and now it isnt worth it.
either put it back to the way it was before or drop the alloys and give us instant bounty officer loot faction loot etc.!


Not intended as a troll, but maybe you're doing it wrong then. Use marauders instead?

Tanked Marauder holds about 1200m3. Horde alloy content is about 3000-3400m3.

So no....

If there is ANY way to get the previous iteration of the Bunker Hordes back, i think that would be the first choice

I was in a corp that was one of the first to live in the Drone Regions. Out in Fun Happy Russian Territory now. All we did was rat drone BS's and mine the fat ABC ores, and as a result, we were rolling in ISK. Anyone who wanted it had a carrier, combat ships, skill books were free, etc etc. We left due to some internal pressures, and not long after that is when CCP first nerfed how much you could earn from ratting drones.

As we understood it, the Drone Regions were INTENDED to be difficult to live in...remote, horrible logistics chains, no skill books, markets that you seeded yourself, etc. What wasn't intended was the sheer amount of minerals that resulted from killing the drones in the kind of numbers that we have seen in the past couple years. Mining as a profession sucks, and with the level 4 mission nerf - coupled with this - I can only hope that my beloved profession becomes more profitable.

If CCP makes ratting drones a bounty faucet, that's fine with me. But we all need to understand that CCP can and will do whatever they want to a region to effect desired changes. Do people think that making Technetium as valuable as it became was just random? At least a part of that reasoning must have been to promote conflict in the North - and it worked. If CCP thinks that making the Drone Regions unpalatable for large-scale life will push populations to other areas, or cause fighting for better space, then you can bet your sweet patooty that they will make it happen.
