âŚand arrivals distort time-space which needs to be stabilized around a beacon.
Lore reason isnât hard to find.
Timers allows perfect strategic planning with massive amounts of player defense, a structure that has a lot of hp and takes awhile to kill an hour maybe with no reinforce timer gives people less time to plan the perfect defense and is more challenging.
Dropping 30 titans and supers on something cant be the perfect answer for all situations.
So they bounce. Just like they do now. Zomg!

Was never a thing. We had bubbles, we had gravimetric sigs, and even then it was not 100% safe. Every defense a miner had has been removed over the years, the local is the last lifeline of non-rorq-under-umbrella mining, making 99% safety a ganker has 100%.
MAKE NULL DANGEROUS FOR EVERYONE, INCLUDING GANKTARDS.

Knowing your own crapâs timer is not âperfect strategic planningâ, itâs âhow much gas is in my car?â
You really want to go back to shooting SBUs? Do you remember what that was like? Do you remember how the only people who could really go about doing it reliably were the big blocs?

So you want to kill every alliance without AU TZ?
lol yea shooting SBUS where terrible but thats territory control, this would be just to switch off local for a bit.
You would be able to anchor a new one cheaply within an hour or 2 thou so it would only be a minor anouyance at most to provoke reaction.
Yeah, but thatâs what youâre suggesting. Youâre suggesting more or less Dominion sov just to shoot this one thing.
Just give it a timer. Make it not work while RFâd. If you want a fight, you can get a fight. If you just want to screw w/people, you can screw w/people. And just for the record:
The reaction itâll provoke will be the same either way. If someoneâs going to drop titans on the RF timer, theyâre gonna drop titans on you shooting it for an hour.

Making one of the mining barges not visible on D-scan would add an interesting dynamic - say the Covetor.
Of course mining drones, cans and haulers, would still be visible, I bet many would happily solo mine in null with one.
Making it not work while RFâed might work and might be a better solution I guess didnât think of that.
Iâll give you skill injectors. While convenient, and welcome for new players to make up for the 16y history, it has been abused by the veteran playerbase. Citadels Iâm not convinced about; the old mechanisms werenât great either. I do feel it should be harder to spawn them but also easier to attack regardless of timezones. But â100% safe rattingâ just isnât true. And besides, who is more risk averse? The guy mining, ratting or hauling in a ship he knows heâs dead in if he gets caught, or the guy hunting those players in his PVPfit ship?

So you want me to spend an hour or 2 every morning aligning a new structure, fueling it for at least 24 hours, just so 18 hours later some moron comes and kills it again, takes 6 hours worth of fuel that dropped, and goes off, until I start setting alarm clock to 4:30am in order to not spend 2 hours at 8:00am?

Time zones are such a pain in the ass, hard to keep things balanced.
What youâre trying is disbalancing what is already disbalanced in favor of a hunter.

CCP sold out when they bowed to Pearl Abyss. Now we will have a game just like Black Desert. Great for 12yrs and under and they wont have to put up with intelligent veteran players.
