You have to have a structure to wardec and be wardecced it’s clearly the whole point of this war Dec mechanic…
You literally have no idea what is going on if you can’t comprehend this…
Sigh…
That’s NOT the argument nor what we are talking about…I (nor most here) have any issues with the you need a structure to WarDec" change…

But it is the argument, it has been the argument, the Merc Monopoly is because of the new wardec mechanic which is that you have to have a structure to start or be wardecced, structure bashes are boring, therefore the wars won’t end and you’ve created a safe environment for the single Merc alliance to blanket Dec everyone with a structure.
You obviously don’t understand the mechanic so why are you here?
I’ll just repeat what I said before as you clearly missed it…

Someone else who thinks structures are some big hurdle.
Its like saying ship trading is only about having a Bowhead
Or PvP is only about having a gun
Obviously you’ve never heard of Cause and Effect.
You had one way and now it’s this way and it’s still wrong… This change sucks because you’ve screwed over anyone else other then a single Merc entity… Which is directly related to the mechanic which is structures…
There is way too much PVP in this game…about time for a reasonable change to the better (less PVP)
Obviously you have no real argument so you need to frame it beforehand…lol…
Actually it’s more complicated than just “ugh, it’s wrong”…it’s a better system but the costs need ramping to discourage farming which is still rampant.
So the 100 million isk actually makes blanket decs easier, before it was 50 to 500 million depending on activity and player count, which you would know this if you did it before.
Now the structures are space trash and are a main problem being fixed by drifters in null, in highsec wars, structures are the cause and effect of this change…
Wardec prices need to be ramped to prevent farming/silly wars as they are still a thing, just less.
Stations are now both more vulnerable as HQs for aggressors but safer as “defensive” corps just use holding companies to protect them while still gaining the benefits. Station bashers now are also more vulnerable while earning less which you would know this if you did it before.
This isn’t correct at all and how would someone who afks the game in null know lol. War Bill’s are actually higher for the same amount of wars.
New players cannot get decced and small corps now cost double at 100mil.
Have you forgotten how null can hit our war HQ!

Oh know the Merc Monopoly has spoken… We shall all obey…
Didn’t know I’ve been afk in null, but you would know since you can check through the zkill blackout, Right?
It takes like 6 to 7 days to reinforce your dumb structure… And your paying way less to Dec people now then we did before, unless your fumbling on your 10 billion isk contracts again.
You also forget that null has to care to hit your highsec structure, we are living in the wild west while your living in the daycare zone.
Ive obviously done it before because I know how flipping boring it is, we UST to hit POS’s all the time and doing a 10 hour pos kill with just 8 people just sucks… Especially when you expect the corporate hanger to have billions inside but it only has an Ibis and a few shuttles…
So how about get to the real problem, Eve is too safe with things like asset safety, structure timers that are based on times in which folks can defend them… There is no grand loot table for people killing these structures anymore…
Asset safety is dumb…(makes things too safe)
Timers are a good idea but too focused on the defender…(makes things too safe)
Loot is fine as it’s random…
All off topic points though so…
Ok when you killed the POS you got everything they left behind including the ships… Now you get salvage and a nice explosion… Isk vs fireworks I’d take the isk any day
Still making ISK…not sure what you are doing wrong.

Hm no Merc Monopoly is because while the community thought that all the merc/wardec corps were only a bunch of risk adverse gankers, ready to die at the first threat (HQ), actually some of them found a way to get rid of the change and became stronger, at a point i even doubt an evetual rollback would bring things where they was
What you are missing is that most pos were just dead sticks with no loot. Most stuff was in Corp offices you couldn’t touch.
Now you get a certain amount of loot from every structure you kill.

Marmite rolled into Pirat, Clown shoe crew Rolled into Pirat, every other failing Merc in highsec has rolled into Pirat, what is left… Pirat
One entity, elimination of competition, only one price and it’s billions…
You’ve killed the Merc market… Congratulations
If you only went after the deadsticks you were doing it wrong.
