Topic: Roaming NPC groups

I hear they are camping! I thought they were supposed to roam?


Well it looks like they're moving along at around 50kph.

Took a minute or so for them to close in.

I docked and after about 3-5 minutes they were far enough away that I could deploy.

I don't see much wrong with them as of yet. It is a good way to combat afk/macro mining.

Though I have heard people complain they died when they deployed. That seems to be unlucky, but you really can't complain about it. You however could complain that the feature wasn't explained well enough before it was implemented.

One thing that could be kinda problematic is the spawn rate. Does anyone have time frames for how often a group passes by an outpost?

Re: Roaming NPC groups

I like roaming NPC groups. They brings dynamic in stupid life of NPCs. Agreed that they need some fixes.

So you are getting observer kernels handed on silverplate.. I guess they had been  autodestroyed so you just had to loot them smile

They actually docked up and just traded us all of their gear.






They also gave us EP and access to higher than lvl 10 extensions.
