    Incursions have a hope yet!

    We are aware that the OTA sites are causing a lot of problems at the moment, and while we still have long-term plans for Incursions, we didn't want to make you wait for the OTA changes. I will update this thread when the changes hit SISI.

    Fucking how long did that take?!

    Now, bets on CCP's definition of 'late summer'?

    It was one of the more common suggestions in the EO thread about the topic. The problem is that you did need a MWD Tengu/Cerb to hack it reasonable quick without ending up with a ship that deals zero DPS in the site. This still left you with a underwhelming DD for the other sites. With a closer spawn point you might simply use a ABing Loki or a MWDing BS to do the same.

    Still looks like a awful amount of effort to clean up afterwards, compared to a simple roll back the hole mess and just adjust with rewards plus slowing down shiny fleets with added minimum spawn timers for the waves.

    I was in a PUG incursion fleet last night doing OTAs with 7 minutes between payouts. NMCs were even faster.

    Woo 7min OTAs. They used to be 2-3mins for arty machs. NCOs were <2mins for legions.
    7min VGs is, what. 80mil/hour?

    90 mil. And I know what they used to be, and it was a tad too high tbh. 3 min OTAs and NCOs at 200mil per hour is ridiculous highsec isk

    Doesn't fit with story. If it went to null there should be no Concord reward.

    Should be a final showdown with Sansha someday. End incursions, giev something new (like drone incursions).

    Yeah, wouldn't fit the story having concord handing out massive isk bounties for killing pirates in the lawless space...... oh wait!
