But with the current Isogen market prices there is no reason to mine Omber: it is almost the worst ore in terms of ISK per mining hour (only Jaspet is worse), Scordite and even Veldspar is a lot more profitable since quite a long time. Omber is not so difficult to find in high sec (0.5 or 0.6 systems) if you are in the right regions (Minmatar or Gallente space). I have heard of finding Omber in high-sec but haven't found it anywhere until now. My guess is it all gets mined to oblivion as soon as the server is back up. I doubt this is considered an exploit since it's in the game. Yeah the mission bonus is only $600K but the Omber is worth a lot more. Gallente Neuro Cartographic Services Drunken N DisorderlyĪnd if you don't complete the mission until next DT, you will have the whole initial mission spawn, respawned! So if the ores are good and you want to delay and lose the bonus reward, which isn't a matter since usually the ores will bring you a lot more, you will have to clean the belt after each DT with your mission boat, then move in your retriever and hauler, and watch for the smaller spawns you get, according to the system's security level. I was just concerned about the mission rats respawning. Yeah I'm in a 0.7 system so I can take care of normal rats with my drones. I'll do something cool with it eventually. They will be standard common or garden belt rats for the area. (forget the exact security sector rules for rat spawns) If there are rats in regular belts in the system, you'll have rats spawn in your mission. I was wondering if the pirates will automatically respawn after a certain time and blow me out of the water?įor that matter, does anyone else mine in the missions? I've never had them respawn on me, and I'm thinking it'd be a nice way to mine privately. Instead, am back with my Retriever and am mining the Omber into cans, to pick up with my Badger Mark II. I killed everyone but did not go through the first gate yet. I have noticed Omber appear in level 3 missions every now and then, so I am doing a mission now, "Downing the Slavers (2 of 2)" and there are like 10 Omber roids.

There are definitely more interesting and involving missions that could be done requiring you to actually mine something at the time. When I get this travesty of a storyline mission I just either shuttle or pod it over, complete the mission, and fly back. the 2 part Against the Slavers level 3 has 8 50k unit Omber roids) and mine them, then just store the ore at the storyline station. Usually with these, I look out for the relevant roids in the regular missions (e.g. And faction standing is a bugger to get up if you lose it in chunks. If you refuse it, you lose standing - it's not like a regular mission where you get the one-time in 4 hours refusal option. Problem is, this mission is a storyline, not a regular mission. I do agree that this mission could use a review or we need more storyline missions so this mission comes up less often. If the mission isn't worth it you could refuse it. Please, do something to bring this mission in line with its peers. The mission's ISK payout usually doesn't cover this cost, so if it weren't for the implant, you'd actually be losing money doing this mission. Especially if you're Caldari, since the level three ore (Omber) only spawns in high-sec Gravimetric sites and the level four ore (Kernite) doesn't appear outside Caldari low-sec. You'd think with the war going on they'd value your efforts a little more.ģ) It usually requires you to buy your minerals. I believe a level two 'kill' storyline mission gives more faction standings than the level four version of Materials for War Preparation. Corp, agent, and mission level do not seem to make a difference in its frequency.Ģ) Its standings gains are pathetic. I've gotten it at least six times in a row one corpmate has an ongoing streak of 11. What issue could possibly arise from one single mission? A couple, actually:ġ) It seems to be at least five times as common as every other storyline put together. Materials for War Preparation, as I'm sure many of you know, is one of the storyline missions you can get.
