Mollys and Mining

[darthbeck]

I dont want mollys to be able to mine profitably, but the one thing that would make me really greatfull, is that the mining in a 10k cricle around graves was nerfed to nothing, so that we dont have a load of BMM miners slowly fillling up on quickdock points.

Mollys should get a mining bonus. But where will they sell the gold?

Look.

It makes sense in RP.
It doesn't make sense in the game mechanics.



If you want to mine gold as a Molly, buy the specific Molly mining ship and the mining lasers...
... that is, a Pirate Transport and Transport Turret Type 2s.

Except that we still would get no bonus because you have to have an iff and id with a bonus for the ship and turet bonus to work!

... I'm making a tongue-in-cheek reference to the act of "mining" mining ships that are full of gold, i.e., piracy.

Yeah when the system was being designed I wanted to get rid of all of those but was overruled. The super nerf they received was apparently enough.

My prediction was the never underestimate the lengths to which people will go to make money in safety.

I claim victory in that debate.

You're wrong as usual (and yes graves should be nerfed to next to nothing - I thought it was.)

I win by power of not being you.

It wouldn't need to be nerfed to next to nothing if it had been removed like I wanted to.

I win by power of actually being right and because I had delicious halibut for dinner on a kabob.

Also, dear lordy lord Hone. Just... Dear lord.

Time to engage the flamethrower again and say: nobody bans the Mollys/Hessians from mining as is. The bonuses might not be there, but that doesn't mean you can't do it. In fact, I'd say it's pretty awesome considering the mining ship has a CD, so what you do is you go out mining with some escort (could be anything from a fighter to a gunboat), fill yourself up a bit with shooting rocks, and the rest with shooting another miner:P

It's extremely nice, that, and rather profitable too. Then once you're done filling it up you fence the ore to one of the ever present IMG transports around and make $$$. What worries me however is that none of you who whinge in this thread about bonuses and numbers ever actually came up with the idea.
