Missions & Complexes

It might help is you dropped the Tin Foil hat. No in is trying to make you move and it's a false perception that things have somehow gotten worse in high sec or mission running.

It's only high sec player who think that CCP is trying to manipulate them. When CCP recently buffed low sec rewards, you didn't see null sec and wormhole player screaming about ccp wanting them to move. Thinking CCP is doing something bad to High Sec is wrong and ignores the buffs, like how you can now get a certain 'pirate' factions ships from a high sec sources when you could not ever do that before.

Have you seen the npc kill stat for the constellations that contain Lanngisi, Apanake and Osmon? Got to Dotlan maps and see for yourself. And the CONCORD LP store has nice stuff in it too, as well as the mindlinks and such from navy stores.

Mission running is a lot more lucratiive now than when i started playing, no noctises or marauders for salvaging, no tech2 salvagers, No tech2 tractor beams (and no ships at all with a tractor bonus) no salvage drones, no Pro Synergy to do it for you, no mobile tractor units, no marauder bastion mode, no micro jump drives to make sniping super easy and safe and Auto-targeting missiles (used to be called FoF) would hit structures making them useless in missions, now if you fly a missile ship you can use them when Guristas Jam you.

You don't know what you are talking about.

Enjoy your ban

Montey.

First off you do need to remove the tinfoil. Changes in salvage =/= some plot to move everyone to null. Or you at least certainly have failed to show any causal link to that effect.

As an example, I have an alt that does jump freighter contracts for push. Given the kinda of hauls I make out of low and NPC 0.0 it would indicate a fair number of people who are running missions in that space, or at least looting/salvaging NPC wrecks from anoms and such. The upcoming changes will affect them as well, not just high sec players.

Otherwise most of winston said is pretty much true. You aren't doing yourself any favors by simply dismissing those who don't hold your position.

I certainly don't wish to be seemingly dismissive of anyone's view. I more than happy to have a solid conversation pertaining to these obvious issues. What I am dismissive of is trolling or putting other folks dow in order to appear more capable. The tin foil hat comment for example is not needed here. I am no conspiracy nut job. I do think there is a concerted effort to manipulate the option in high sec as well as the market.

Priceless

I've noticed over the years that various aspects of high sec PvE keeps getting nerfed time and time again while low sec keeps getting buffed.

Had to laugh at the title of this one.
Funnier knowing there's a ballgag out there with the op's name on it.

I am sorry you picked the wrong ship to do PVE in...

I have been salvaging and looting every mission I have ever run for 4 years, I run each of the 5 Epic arcs (Except Sisters) every 90 days, I maintain a healthy and diverse market account with a couple hundred billion, I keep nearly 20 mil LP saved up to take advantage of market fluctuations and I have logged more fleet hours than 90% of Incursion runners. I have trained BS V, Weapons spec V and Marauders V on 3 toons for all 4 factions, testing efficiency with Vindis, Nightmares, Machs, Vargurs and Golems (Hate the Domi).

With all that I see a loss over the years of earnings in Missions and Arcs, a constantly dwindling profit margin in loot and salvage and a drop in safety as all the High Bears are herded into tighter and tighter margins trying to make what they made before.

And all the while seeing the seemingly never ending whine from the ADD populace to 'Nerf High sec' and 'MORE PVP'. Well perhaps the saving grace is that they can stop clogging the forums with their Arterial Sclerosis posts, it is done, they have Nerfed High Sec, been nerfing it since 2010, and will probably continue to swing the bat.

wasn't were 3 other threads like this from same person today?

Are you actually reaching out explicitly to reinforce your confirmation bias?

And yeah, still curious: how has the market been nerfed?
