Finally found a mining fleet with 7 Skiff in Niarja. Great choice of ship for mining in that system.
450 paper DPS was barely able to scratch those Skiff shields - seem to be pretty equal to "real" Skiffs.
Response Fleet was 5 or 6 frigates, Skiff escaped, killed the whole response fleet.
Standing loss to HZO Refinery: -0.008% for destroying a Executioner in Niarja.
Neither attacking the Skiff nor destroying the other frigates gave a standing hit. Bug or intented?
I guess I could repair my standing with a single level 2 distribution mission for HZO in no time. That doesn't feel right. |

I haven't gotten a chance to watch the Eve Vegas presentation yet, so posting here. So I am completely 100% clear, the wrecks will drop a box which can be opened without needing any special key?
If that's all the loot boxes are I kinda like it... another way to screw with people. If you need some kind of widget that must be bought with Aurum or something to open them then this is an awful design and please don't do that. |

Absolutely no key needed. They are exactly like the boxes acquired through the Shadow of the Serpent / Scope Network event.
Basically the loot goes into this box instead, and you get to open this yourself or can sell it to another player who can pay some ISK to take a gamble at opening the box.
CCP Larrikin also mentioned future possibilities involving the strong box, such as selling back to the NPC Corporation you looted it from, or handing it in for standings rewards. Both are future possibilities we can investigate depending on the feedback we get.

So from the Vegas stream these mining groups seem to have a local base. A station belonging to one of the corps doing the mining.
Do the mining operation spawn where ever they have a station or is it just in their home regions?
So will we find Gallente mining operations from the Astral mining corp in Caldari systems where there is a Astral mining station or will there only be Astral Mining operations within the Gallente Regions? |

God help you if you get found by the battleship-sized response group. My rattlesnake was destroyed within 30 seconds of the fleet landing on grid. These guys do NOT joke around when it comes to force. |

Cool, thank you for the clarification. A suggestion of a decidedly juvenile nature: Can you make a (valueless) object drop every once in a while, a little doll named My Richard? That would make it...

tried this out on SiSi last nite ..... was fun :) poor Thukker's.......
Nailed a retty then two others got away, then a small fleet of two ewar frigs and a scythe warped in to save them.
I see someone mentioned in thread before about D-Scan - would be very nice to have this available so you dont waste a ton of time going from belt to belt.
2nd - i could not find how to add the ships to the overview - nothing under ships or NPCs I could add specific ones by right click add to overview. But I missed the scythe at first since it was repping not attacking.
Im sure that is coming in an upcoming patch :)
Cheers

Discovered the answer.
Yes foreign miners will spawn in enemy space if they have stations there. I found an Amarrian Joint Harvesting Skiff team in Minmatar space.
Also, the response fleets are going to absolutely cause havoc on patch day its going to be like the introduction of Incursions all over again.
"what new PvE, surely my pimped navy raven can do that ... OMGW*FBBQ"
But once again CCP PLEASE have some of these cause FACTION standing hits. |

Worst idea I've heard in a while. "Make nullsec ratting content kill highsec faction standing" GTFO.
Still hoping to hear whether or not drone regions will get any mining fleets, or if we're just getting the shaft. |

If they don't have a Faction Standing hit then they become a joke target, shoot them all the time, corp standing hits do nothing.
Oh and according to the Vegas stream, you are getting the shaft. |

That is a good question, would bring another level to FW. Both defending a system and attacking one. Maybe FW missions to raid enemy supplies or something. Liking the way this is going as it can also encourage PVP as well. |

Except that they react based on corp standings. So you turn up in belt, and before you do _anything_, a response fleet is going after you. (if you have bad corp standings)
Woo! CSM XI!

Correct. The best place to find these is near stations belonging to that corporation.

The best place to find these is near stations belonging to that corporation. Will I find Angels/Serpentis/Sansha/Guristas (etc) mining ops in HS? The NPC mining corps make a lot of sense, but I don't feel like wrecking standings with them. On other hand, my pirate faction standings are already terrible ;) |

I will double down on what others have said. I've looked near their corporate offices in various locations (Minmatar space) and the spawn rate seems to be very low. I found several instances of Sleepers, but no miners. |

was looking all over for these and could not find any even with several other members of my alliance spread out all over. even looked in a system that had 3 stations from a spawning corp :/. if these are supposed to add activity and not just be a rare site the spawns need to be upped
EDIT:
or is this just a similar issue with anoms on sisi and TQ will see much more activity?

Do these only spawn in a system with a guristas outpost or any system that normally spawns guristas rats? |
