The real fix for incursions

Sounds good...

Just avoid creating such epic penalties that would cause some clueless freighter get ganked with 2 volleys while passing the system with autopilot .)

so the net effect is that the longer the mom sits there, the harder it is to farm lesser sites, even to the extent of it being impossible to farm lesser sites.

The mom should also be on a timer, and if it's not killed off in x hours the sansha forces win, the incursion goes poof and NOBODY GETS LP FOR THAT INCURSION

what say you?


The lesser sites should simply close once the mom is spawned. You can justify that as the ships in those sites are now with the mom as support.

No need to penalise people with no LP really, just close the sites when mom arrives. If it doesn't get popped in a sensible time then it despawns.

If you want some sort of penalty how about if it isn't popped then the likelihood of another incursion in that constellation/region declines? Roleplay that as the sanshas have been in that area and cleared it out so they won't be back for a good while.

Isnt this already the case?

Also, LP-store is an ISK sink, not faucet. If less ISK was sunk in the lp-store then more ISK would be left circulating game economy. I'll let you ponder if it would be good or bad thing...
