Tell me if I am wrong but Citadel, Forge, Domain, among others high sec, and 6/10 regions in the top 10 PVP destruction regions in the game are mostly high sec. From what I can tell, more content needs to happen in Null sec where things are at stake and not in high sec where you can PVP risk free far from your farming grounds in null sec.
you do realize its only the .5 systems right? no one is fighting over them because by design they are not worth much. they were added to give a way for hs corps to generate fun little mining events
there are still simply better ways to make isk with less risk in HS if you have the force to fight over a moon then you get one in ls or ns that has real value not some moon in HS that you are lucky to get 1b a week off a good one.
also they are being killed as HS has plenty of kms of structures with drills fit
As I said, there is enough conflict already, and high sec has more conflict drivers than null sec to be very honest. Not only are the markets there open for all, which means you can gather alot more tax isk from supplying everyone, which creates conflict for market places. Mining also creates conflict, especially since the introduction of refineries to monoplize reprocessing income in certain area. Ratting in the form or DEDs and events also creates a lot more content in high sec than elsewhere because of suspect baiters and loot grabbers.
What conflict drivers are left in null sec now that citadels forcefully cement entities in place and income is uncontested.
if you have enough to fight over a HS moon you have enough to fight over a LS or NS moon and see greater returns.
this will not add conflict only remove it as the moons get help by large groups and remain uncontested because the other groups will look to better moons rather than waist their time
how are you this dense null sec its about profit but there is no profit in HS moons. there are countless other less risky activities that require less initial investment and have higher returns
Null:
Sov
BLOPS/Hot Drops
NPSI/NBSI
Eviction
A2AD (Anti-Access Area Denial) (that is, essentially, structures/citadels) The ability to PVP anyone at any time with no cost other than potentially your ship.
and yet there is still more conflict day to day in HS than there is in null go figure. its not about how many things you can do but how many people are doing it
currently in your average HS there will be maybe one moon worth over 1bisk if any at all. there is already the scarcity you want. just because there are a lot of moons does not mean there are not still a few moons worth far more (relatively at least) than others
