Most EFFICIENT High-Sec Ice Barge 🧊 Retriever Solo Guide

[@lorumerthgaming]

❄SHIP WINNER HAS BEEN FOUND ❄ Huge congrats to DoctorThom!! Look for the in game contract 😁

[@jefferyscotweir]

In my fifteen year long eve career I have done many things. One of them was mining. My most favorite thing to fit on that exact same ship was a warp scrambler. Substitute the afterburner for a warp scrambler. If you need to move through the belt simply bookmark the new asteroid you want to travel to, warp to a nearby celestial object then warp back to your bookmark. Gankers are much more hesitant to gank miners if they use a ship scanner revealing the warp scrambler that is fit to your ship. It makes them think you are bait with backup nearby.

[@lorumerthgaming]

This is an INCREDIBLE idea. I appreciate the mind games too 👏

[@RamboMadCow]

It's been a month since you posted this but hopefully you see it. I love the idea of tricking gankers by having a warp scrambler on your mining vessels. If we continue that theme, do you have any experience or opinions on upping the ante by adding a Neutralizer or Nosferatu into a high slot for ships such as the ventures endurance, and prospect? Obviously can't do it with barges and exhumers, but if you were multi-boxing with a bunch of endurances that all had warp scramblers and a neut or nosf, would that make gankers doubly suspicious of being decoys?

[@alex_zetsu]

The gankers must not be very experienced. In low sec, people _do_ need to worry about bait ships. In high sec, CONCORD will avenge you if you warp scramble them... or don't. In other words objectively it makes no difference. That said, probably 30/31 gankers seem pretty clueless as to what they're doing since I've seen many crazy things like trying to blow up empty ships without expensive modules. When that 31st ganker who does know what they're doing comes, that warp scrambler is useless.

[@theMalkavian]

Why would a ganker be afraid of you using a warp scrambler to prevent them from escaping? As soon as they attack, CONCORD will stop them warping. It's called 'suicide ganking' for a reason.

[@theMalkavian]

@@RamboMadCow Do you intend to cap out the Catalyst, or just tag yourself on the CONCORD kill mail? How many gankers scan their mining targets before striking? Miners get dumber, I swear. Your best defense is awareness and movement, or just buy a mining permit.

What is the proper way to use the Hornet EC-300's? I only learned about them from your other mining vids but I don't recall any specific tactics. Do we have to proactively target the baddie and send them to disrupt them? Do we let them auto attack? Is the general idea that we abandon the drones by warping out while they disrupt the attacker? I don't have a big problem abandoning them. They're cheap enough compared to replacing an entire Retriever fit. Just trying to fully understand the correct way to use them to save the ship.

[@lorumerthgaming]

How to use: lock the ganker, set the drones on the ganker! This will force the ganker to lock and kill the drones before they can lock you. Giving you precious seconds to gtho 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

[@G2nelson]

I want that ship Loru! Also a big fan of the videos! Just my 2 cents but I'm generally not a fan of the "releasing in 24 hours option" I'm curious if it increases views or alienates people like i feel it does for me. I also click the video excited to see it, then get disappointed when I realize its not actually out. Half the time I think, "welp guess im not watching that video." Sometimes I do see it, and catch it later but I always feel kinda bummed when I get tricked. I get it when you have a watch party on a new video, in chat watching the new release, but when someone does an announcement for every video it irks me.

[@lorumerthgaming]

Interesting, appreciate the feedback!! Glad you are enjoying the content 😌

[@lorumerthgaming]

hauling FTW. also, well done

[@TomlinsTE]

I’m confused about why a highsec mining ship would be at great risk of being ganked. When I watched highsec hauling videos, the general consensus was they wouldn’t bother unless the loot was worth 800 million plus. Is a single load of ice that valuable? Could we make more frequent offloads to mitigate the risk?

[@TomlinsTE]

Oh, maybe it’s less cost to pop a mining ship.

[@chrisheick7486]

nnow are you using the retriever for cost reasons, over using one of the exhumers for ice mining?

[@lorumerthgaming]

i use the exhumers, looks for those vids!

[@toddpatton1750]

#secretcallout Another good video Loru. I haven't tried ice harvesting at all till watching this. Going out tonight after I buy a couple ice miner I's for my retriever to see if I like it. I really like how you lay out several ways to enjoy Eve in your videos. I usually swap up my focus every two or three months so I don't burn out on one area e.g. mining or mission running. You've given me some new things to consider and more than a few weeks to my fits. Appreciate it! I want that ship Loru! IGN: Airistin Northgate

No-tank retriever with ORE Ice Harvesters mining in the Caldari space. Are suicide gankers no more an issue nowadays? What can be juicier than that?

[@lorumerthgaming]

I have never been ganked mining, despite the gankers being present. Gotta fly safe 💁‍♂️

[@slanderousmoon1729]

@@lorumerthgaming thank you for the reply! Well you might have done a good job on watching the local chat! But honestly I believe your statement is a classic example of survivorship bias. No-tether rule for suicide gankers makes it harder to bring 7-8 destroyers on the gank by a solo player, but it's still quite easy to run 4 destroyers (although you have to switch your fits from tech-I to tech-II). I believe the suggested fit is vulnerable to 3-4 tech-II catalysts in 0.7 system with CONCORD troops present somewhere else in the system outside the belt. Moreover, there should be some time left to hit the pod. So I believe it's still important to fit the tank. When you use ORE equipment for mining, you make your ship a super-profitable target for the gank even for tech-II catalysts. Some words about the positioning on the belt: suicide gankers use cloaky ships to find the target and bookmarks to warp the fleet. So it might be quite irrelevant whether you are far away from the initial warping spot. P.S.: Sorry for that boring stuff that I wrote. Anyway, fly safe! o7
