That’s a feasible blast radius for a mechanic aimed at destroying or harming botters. Being at the top end of the range that a barge or exhumer can mine at. ---

Its not for damaging botters ships, you also have no clue. And now you dont even go back to my posts because its too much hot air here. Else you woulkd not invent such things. ---

So what is the point of it? Damaging their drones and feedback damage through their strip miners is an inconvenience, it does them little or no harm. We asked you how it would work, you flatly refuse to answer the question; ergo you forced us to make assumptions based on our knowledge of current mechanics and the game in general; knowledge that you apparently don’t possess. ---

You didnt read all of it. read then you will not even have any question. And about ice chunks exploding, NO, they should not explode and damage everyone, just directed damage if mined too inresponsibly to miners turrets and drones. ---

Nope, Im still wanting to discuss the topic. Do the ice chunks vanish after The Event? Tick tock Ryanair ---

You are the one playing ignorant. When the mechanic that damages mining modules is triggered, what happens to the chunk? Its the same question you have been dodging for quite some time. Do you not know because you havent undocked in about a year? ---

The thread subject is about hisec ice mining bots and how to address them; ergo your bad idea is seen as a suggestion for combating them. > [@Bellanea\_Rajanir](#): > > just directed damage if mined too inresponsibly to miners turrets and drones. How do you define irresponsibly? How is the damage directed? Feedback through mining lasers? Explosion? Radiation? The Tooth Fairy? ---

Mining irresponsibly = Not following the Code of High Sec I was under the impression? ---

You mean that event, so be clear, as there are events in this game of other meaning. If they are mined then they vanish, backfire would only destroy a small amount of ore/ice inside chunk. Ocasionally the backfire could pop asteroid when ore/ice would be less than backfire damage. ---

So the Backfire (as you call it) damage amount is applied equally(?) to all devices with active beams on the rock or ice, as well as the rock or ice chunk itself. Have I read this correctly? Please feel free to clear up anything here that you feel I may have failed to grasp, my brain is only small. ---

So how does this combat bot miners? Combating bot miners being the subject of the thread.
