Thing is, increasing the risk is one method.

Another would be to have the incoming ore go to the regular hold, not the ore hold, forcing the pilot to move it manually.

This would really only penalize AFKers.

One of the base problems is Orca is filling two roles, miner and hauler.

No, it would penalise everyone forcing them to add clicks just to satisfy you.

As for mining at work, show it’s actually a common problem. Pointing at orcas existing doesn’t prove this problem even exists.  
And there are already significant solutions in game to this in the way of FOB & Emerging conduits.

The amount of orcas out there suggests to me they aren’t enough of a deterrent.

I’ve never been worried about them. I’ve never seen the rats that are meant to spawn from an out post and the trigs are quite weak in my experience.

Please, show some actual stats that there is a problem. And then show that the only possible way to solve this problem is to utterly ruin every single miners day with make work clicking and dragging just because you say so.

This whole thread is just about ruining players days to satisfy a few people’s egos and beliefs.

How?

You’re either arguing that afk mining is a good thing and shouldn’t be discouraged or that afk mining isn’t bad enough to cause problems with the economy.

The first is poor judgement. The second is denial.

Null Sec got in front of high sec mining 2 or 3 years ago and has been trending further and further ahead since. The MER breakdown includes low sec since its per region so can’t be done entirely accurately. But please do go ahead and post the maths you’ve clearly already done since it’s your own source and claim

Which by your own maths had Covetors mining more ore than Orcas.  
And there is no evidence in that screenshot or the MER to suggest that Orca mining while people are at work is common enough to justify any kind of wrecking of the game for everyone else.

So much that i can’t look at the MER and say ‘mining and production vs destruction is out of whack and hi-sec mining has something to do with that!’

You’re saying hi-sec mining is so insignificant the above statement is wrong?

> [@Nevyn\_Auscent](#):

On the contrary. It showed orcas were not only the most popular way to mine, but the most popular ship of all.

Remember, those covetors are only mining for a couple hours and the orcas for 8 hours.

So you established that orcas have bad yield.  
We’ve established there are 4 orcas for every 5 barges so it’s unlikely they are all boosting…  
And we already know the mack is more popular than skiffs despite their tank…

So you think people mine in orcas because?..

Prove it.  
You coming up with a story doesn’t make this a fact.  
And even if it is true, it doesn’t justify any of the proposals put forward here all of which harm other players more than your alleged target group.

A nerf to orca yield is objectively more damaging to afk orca players than it is to people who use orcas in fleets as support ships.

But you claimed the fact that to ask you have to mine in a horribly inefficient low yield method doesn’t matter because it’s afk.  
You can’t even make your mind up about your own argument. If a yield nerf will hurt them… there is no need for a nerf because it’s already the lowest yield, and it harms everyone else more because a 10% nerf on a larger number is a larger nerf. If it won’t hurt them there is no point and it harms everyone else.  
So… Even by your own arguments, it harms everyone else more.

Except we already know from the previous iteration of the orca that once yield goes below a certain threshold afk mining in orcas becomes undesirable enough that few people do it.

Same with using a miasmos with one mining laser. Again, look at my d-scan. Only one miasmos, and i bet it wasn’t mining.

So whilst people are happy to mine sub-optimally when afk (see popularity of mack and rettie), there is a point where a yield is low enough it becomes widely undesirable (see old orca and mining miasmos).

So I’m fully aware of my arguments. Question is, are you?

> [@Nevyn\_Auscent](#):

How?

Objectively afk orcas rely on yield more than orcas being used as support.

Do you wonder why anyone used the orca before it got a mining drone buff?

Then your claim, that THOSE specifically ships remain for 8 H, is BS.  
Even if, it would be irrelevant to their impact on the game (just because they are present 8H does not mean they are mining 8H) ; and what’s more irrelevant to the ratio of mining done by orcas.

And even then, it would be irrelevant to the general case. If you don’t have real data you can’t say anything. Your approximation is made up on the spot, and poorly at that.

But I agree that the orcas are in a better shape, if you don’t want to mine efficiency. And already agreed that it’s because of their increase tank. Therefore, the only correct answer, is to give 10k HP to the shield of barges, and 20k to the shield of exhumers, so that they are less worthless to use.

> [@Daichi\_Yamato](#):

No they don’t. If you are AFK, you mine at most 5 rocks and that’s it. and over 8 hours you actually mined 5 rocks.

Your sentence is just complete BS. You make up stupid arguments to go along a stupid idea, jut because its output matches your desire. That’s hypocrisy.

So you think a single mining drone can finish a moon rock within 8 hours?

200m3 a minute = 12k m3 an hour = 96k m3 in 8 hours. That’s with **zero** travel time.

Moon rocks are over 200k m3…

So yeah orcas can mine until they fill their hold by mining 5 separate rocks. The math above demonstrates it doesn’t even need to be the biggest rocks you can get in a moon belt.

My statements isn’t wrong in the slightest. A yield nerf objectively punishes an orca designed to do nothing but mine afk compared to orcas used for boosting/fleet support. We DO know that there is a yield threshold where they will be widely regarded as inappropriate for afk mining but are still used for support.

Is very heavy handed considering we had perfectly fine orcas in hi-sec a few years ago.

Null and low have rorquals. (yeah they’re broken too, but that’s a rorqual problem not an orca problem)
