- A jump from a 3x bonus to 4x bonus is a balance issue. A 33% increase in mining speed is simply not what the economy is designed for, and way too much of an advantage over the indie IDs that should also be viable.
Can we get any specific examples for this problem occurring?
As far as I can tell, generally speaking Bristol Indie mining was completely viable and OF mining simply a step up from that. Despite the advantage, there's still been difficulty at times to supply our own bases with the necessary ore for platinum and heavy water. So...where, exactly, is the "too much" part about it?
