Wormholes

This is amazing.
WTB similar thing for nullsec anoms.

This is by Design to prevent Pyramid Quoting


Since you are quoting the Same previous poster each time you may continue.

Hello CCP, hello guys,

I have a question about the site respawning algorythm in wormhole space.

I live in a C5 wormhole and we really farmed our sites whenever we could. The point is, I dont really think your respawning system for the sites works, because its now a week we did not get any new sites like one or two in 6 to 7 days.

Its really frustrating because we really tested and tried to fly the new sites and we are now after many testing and praticing good at it but there is no real respawn. We farmed them, because you write in the devblog, that those sites in wh space will respawn faster, if we get more active and farm more of them. This doesnt work for us right now.

Dont know how the other pilots may have experienced this, this isnt a whine or something, i just want to ask you if there is some issues with the respawning code. I heard from some nullsec guys, that if they actively farm a system, they get a constant respawn of sites. Maybe u can make some adaption or check the code for wh space because we are pretty cut off on any income.

We have this problem now since about 2 weeks, but now its really bad for us because there is really no respwaning and we farm like every site actively.. At the moment we have 1 cosmic anomaly, and this is our static wh.

No whine, just a question.

Greetings
Willi

So can we talk about how this change utterly failed to address the biggest problem with the old escalations?

Aka solo hero dread.

This is still extremely doable and all these changes have done is hurt the people who want/have no other choice to run in groups.

"We want you to farm your static more, so we changed the sites to take 5x longer with a very marginally increased payout"

Like right now it's probably more efficient to clear c5 sites without killing the drifter in a group as small as 3. The weight is completely out of balance.

Actually been doing c3s duo in gilas and it's better money than attempting home sites in capitals: this is just wrong and completely polar opposite of the risk = reward mindset.

We are risking multi-billions on field to run home sites in capitals and making less money than in a c3 with less than 1 billion fielded.

This also has the negative connotation of nobody being able to catch people running sites in capitals, something wormhole entities with high-class statics did as a common activity.

I see where you're trying to go by forcing people to go into their static to farm, this potentially creates more player interaction. However the player interaction you get these days with people who want to farm is yacht clubs and citadel spinning.

If you want meaningful player interaction to form you have to have the risk WORTH taking. People aren't going to use capitals or shiny things when there's no reward for it. This has the knock on effect of pvp in wormholes taking a dive because we don't have the ISK to support it.

Meanwhile in Null sec, you've not touched the income you get from site ratting and you radically decreased the risk of carriers doing this.

I just don't understand the design philosophy anymore honestly.

That is because your use to insane payouts in WH space rather than something far more realistic. People in NS risk caps for far less per hour than the old escalations. Farming the old escalations was plain broken.

And if a hero dread is not "worth it" don't use it. I mean where is it written that CCP need to make a particular shinny fit ship "worth it". One of our old corpies would rat in null sec with Blops Battleships. At about 2-3B a piece. And Ratting doesn't make even close to the isk per hour of a C5.

Stop assuming that because you did get billions a week that you deserve billions a week.

Is there an ETA to this Feature ? - then honestly atm it is a pain to figure out if there are drifters present ... aka time consuming and therefore delaying a lot of activities.

Will Data and Relic Sites spawn a Drifter, too in the foreseeable future ?

Totally agree with Willi Walzwerk. I used to farm in C5 with a big isk fleet (check killboard). Hard Kocks raped it and the income is just to low to try and rebuild. There aint that many of us left in C5 space so they can just wait with there dreads logged off lurking in the dark waiting for a new capital to ****. In the old escalation system i would work on a new fleet. Being one of the few means being one of the camped. But **** it, time for PI, rock shooting and looking for a new C3 or C4 wh.

STUFF THE SKINS IN PLACE WHERE THE SUN DOESN'T SHINE!!!!!!!! FIX THE PLEX PRICES!!!!!!!

Jep, you need a **** ton of deeps to make it worth it. But the 3 Avengers are even worse isk/hour. Make then combat scan-able so we can run a site with subcaps and just hunt the boss down!!!

Yo m8 drifter bosses are like incursions, gang / fleet content, just go to accept the hard facts sometimes
PRo tip startup the launcher and select sisi - test server and go nuts and test perhaps?
Maybe you can find the optimal way to run the content to wich degree its solo or non solo.
Just bring probes and do the /moveme command to get started.

That's my new favorite joke. Thanks man.
