Just tested this out too, getting the same yield from both a Porpoise and Orca.
I’ve got the same rigs in both (size doesn’t affect the bonus, I checked), skills are the same, so the only thing I can think of is the role bonus on the Porpoise is MIA.
Putting mining drones in a simulated empty Orca shows the same yield of putting the same drones in a simulated empty Porpoise, Porpoise should show 50% more yield because of the role bonus
I don’t know if it is just a tooltip error or not, as I don’t have a Porpoise
No mention of the Porpoise in the patchnotes, and despite the announcement that it was supposed to remain unchanged, the nerf was still deployed. 35% less mining yield. Yikes!
Expedition Frigate can be trained without training Mining Frigate 5.
Note: Expedition frigates still can not be boarded without Mining Frigate 5, which although this is a GOOD thing in terms of this bug not creating terrible ripples, seems to be out of line with past skill changes, where, for example, capital pilots could still fly capitals when BS 5 was removed from the skill Prereqs, and alternative skill paths were added, as only the necessary hull skill should be required for flying a hull.
Ice belts are broken, seemingly in every system they spawn in:
-The Agency window shows ice belts are present in systems
-Those systems have an “Ice Belt Location” that can be found in D-scan
-Upon warping to the belt, there is NO ice in the “belt”
-These empty ice belt locations are not despawning.
The ore hold bonus to Miasmos corresponding to Gallente Industrial skill level is gone! I’m getting base value of mining hold volume in Miasmos despite my Gallente Industrial trained over level 1. The ship tree description still says that the bonus is available but that is certainly not the case.
I checked the extended patch notes and there is no mention of this nerfing in the post anywhere.
I’m unable to update my home station to where I could pre patch. It does not show any changes possible. It only shows set destination in the tab on the character sheet.
Bug reporting is bugged as well and won’t submit my report properly or show up in past bug report log.
