Just asking for some consistency between Combat and Industrial and to follow the usual tech progression. Harvester Mining Drone I - BPC from the ORE LP Store Mining Drone II - Invention (or BPO if you are lucky enough)Īugmented Mining Drone I - BPC drop from NPC's They have done if for the Normal Mining Drones Now I have options and the usual risk reward is maintained. ORE Excavator Mining Drone I - BPC from the ORE LP Store 'Augmented' Excavator Mining Drone I - BPC Drop from the new Mining Op's These should follow the same tech tree as most other things.Įxcavator Mining Drone I - With BPO from the MarketĮxcavator Mining Drone II - invented via usual manner What I am complaining about is the fact that there are no alternatives. I am not even objecting to the fact that ORE has the 'best Mining Drones', that is as it should be. You would be complaining in what by this stage would be 50 page thread. What I was trying to point out was that how would you react to CCP Releasing a new carrier but making the fighters that it uses only available by running Interbus missions for LP to buy the BPC off the LP Store. I live in 0.0 when do I have time to run missions or go chasing Incursions round the galaxy. They are not meant to be used or built by your average high sec player, they are for the big dogs in major corporations doing projects on a large scale.ĭon't care about the cost, you are right I will make that back in no time, what I care about is the fact that to equip my one of my ships with what has been 'described' as a standard module for it I have to run missions, for ORE which is on the other side of the galaxy or run incursions, which are mostly active in Empire (well the incursion fleets that run them).

Now, with the backing of a powerful Corp and the resources available the "cost" of the drones is just a small expense as 60 million is chimp change to anyone flying a Rorqual. If you are using excavators then you are most definitely a Rorqual pilot which also means you are probably 99.999999% in a Corp obviously in an area where the excavators can be used effectively with all the riches of that security space.
