Wondering how many "mega multis" will be heading to Exordium to avoid ganks

Any hour spent mining Veld-0 is worth half as much as an hour spent mining Veld, and even less for Veld-II and Veld-III. This remains true regardless of how many characters you use.

You can imagine a guy who is a scale multiboxer who doesn’t care about isk per hour at all as much as you want, but he’s not a real person.

Thanks! So, players are going to abuse the ■■■■ outta it while afk.

Edit; It’s just human nature…

You can mine in 0.9 space, probably make 2-3x more income than 0.0 space and are 99% safe. Considering how little ISK/hour this is in high-sec, I can’t imagine Exordium being more than a passing distraction.

753

I only have a K 98. :frowning:

754

No, because that doesn’t make sense. If you just do it in highsec, it’s, again, worth double. No matter what you do, no matter how much or how little time you spend, like for like you get, bare minimum, double for no appreciable gain in risk.

You have no particular understanding of human nature if you think anyone willingly takes a 50% paycut.

You’re a noob if you think someone cant mine multiple accts with no risk in this game!

Another thought. Can some transport corp be used to circumnavigate the sys?

759

Exacerbatium.

Like avoiding any 0.5 systems enroute to Exordium you mean?

761

If you ask me, CCP should not have caved in after they removed local from null sec. Huge nerf when they gave back local.

And then the botting got so much worse…

763

They should’ve made it a deployable that you have to put in space and that can be reinforced/offlined.

764

So Exordium is live, is the game wrecked yet?

The offices at the Concord Station didn’t get wiped.

I’m soooooo glad I woke up early to check :smiling_face_with_tear:.

And don’t forget that compared to new players, established players can now bring a specialized blinging mining ship without any wasted slot for a tank module, leveraging a big advantage over any amount the usual newbie would be able to mine in Exordium.

However i haven’t done the math yet, what is possible here in terms of yield maxing.

FC shouldn’t break the rules to show off their free Titans.

It’s disrespectful.

Orca:

  • Basically, that’s an Orca with drone mining rigs instead of tank rigs.
  • Also for the boosters, you can’t stack these. Only the strongest one applies when you have two Orcas (the maximum skill one) and also you can’t use two modules with the same script running. So basically, you only get one mining yield booster.
  • Not having to use shield mods lets an Orca also use Range booster and the booster that slows down the degredation of mining crystals.

Mining Barge or Exhumer

  • This lets you use a Hulk instead of a Skiff and also you get to use mining drone rigs, mining upgrade mods (Low) and a Chipset Scanner (Medium).

That’s how you max yield mine. When I’m mining ice, it’s out in the open so I use a tanked Skiff. I also use only a mining yield booster since the Ice rocks are so close together. I don’t need range or the mining crystal preserver. And of course, I don’t use drone augment rigs. I do use upgrade mods (Low) though.

Without an Orca (with implants), a max yield Hulk can do up to 45m3 / second per turret which is a LOT.

I don’t remember if that’s with or without drones.
