Can you PLEASE reduce the cycle time of the Industrial Core down to 3 minutes for T1 and 1 minute for T2? Perhaps give the T2 IC a bigger drone yield buff to give some kind of actual reward for trudging through the 30 odd day training time?

At least let us reposition our rorqs more easily.

uhhh, what?

Rorq bandwidth is 125 Mbit/sec

Ice mining drones and ice excavators are two different things. Try using the excavators... as was intended.

Not saying i'm not at 9.88 sec a load of ice per drone 35m in 5mins.

I seen people run 10 rorquals for 350m in 5 mins.

I think you need to try mining. Mining isn't about PVP although it is a part of it, it isn't about trolling around different systems every day to find belts or anoms. It is about keeping Eve provided with the things it needs to be a game.
If miners were forced to go to different systems, constellations or regions every time they killed an innocent asteroid belt, many would simply quit which would push up the price of everything on the market.
Eve is a world wide game, miners in different TZ's are affected differently by how asteroid belts spawn, for example I'm an Aussie and when I used to mine ore in highsec I'd often have to wait until after dt because other TZ's had mined out everything.
Ice mining was better, as long as the person or group who killed the anom last did so to get it to spawn in the few hours I was online each day, if not it meant spending time looking for a system that had a belt, reducing my ability to earn isk. Mining is not so easy as some might imagine - Yes it has decent rewards but you have to earn them. Unlike running missions, mining entails some risk.

Asteroid belts never used to deplete, they lasted forever, they now deplete and yes they respawn in the same system but have different quantities of ore - the more often a belt is mined out the less ore it will contain when it respawns. Leave it alone for a few days it will again be worth mining.


Anoms used to be sig sights, you had to scan one down to find, this changed a few years ago. Anoms in nulsec require iHub upgrades and a lot of mining to get them in the first place. Yes they re-spawn pretty much straight away but only because people are mining them, those same miners are at risk of PVP because a group hunting miners no longer has to scan them out as the anoms can be seen as you jump into system, reducing the time miners have to get safe.
Making anoms a scan sig again would increase the safety of miners - Good thing if you're a miner, not so good if you're a hunter.

You mention Delve, I'm not sure of the context unless you're saying Delve has more ore than elsewhere in nul, it doesn't. It has Goons who over the years have become some of the best miners in the game. They also die a lot, the amount of Rorquals that die each day in Delve is content for many, thank you Goonies.

As for moving to another region while Delve anoms/belts regenerate - Do you understand how the whole sov system works?
* Sorry guys, Delve ore sites have been depleted and will need time to regenerate - We need to move the alliance and take sov, then upgrade that sov so our miners have something to do.
*Eventually you would (quickly I'd imagine) end up with pretty much all of New Eden's ore supplies depleted and Eve would come to a standstill.

As for the new moon mining structures, they will be great for those large groups who can put them to use (have full TZ coverage) and have the backup to defend them. So far they just look like another nail in the coffin of smaller groups who eek out a living in nulsec.

Devs are doing a stellar job of opening the door for the creation of unassailable coalitions again.. And why not set New Eden back a few years.

It is strange that we refer to reduction of value as 'Nerf', when that is a trade good IRL for efficient, well-packaged foam fun. Rorquals are now being repackaged in unprecedented restocking to the area markets. I very much liked the accompanying price decline in Rorqual paraphernalia after this change, made for piecing together decent psuedo-Jump Freighter haulers of compressed raw mats.

By the way, who uses / used to use Rorquals to mine ore? Can't fly an Excavator through a Mercoxit cloud too often.
