Hmm should I buy a 8-13 billion isk Rorqual..

So I spent some time on the test server mining in a Rorqual. WOW...I was blown away. With a mining oriented setup that thing out mines 5 un boosted Hulk class Exhumers. Exhumers are the main line of mining ships. Boosted it can mining with the capacity of 2.5 hulks with max boosts and and skills. Oh....and the Rorqual can compress ore. With its impressive 300,000m3 hold, matched with the ability to compress ore....this thing is a beast. It can mine and compress MILLIONS of m3 of ore. Match that with the proposed setup I would use...3 hulks...2 with near max skills, and another very well skilled, and my main in a Rorqual....WOW

Then I saw this battle report..

They lost 7 Rorquals and they had a defense fleet...I think.... SEVEN. That would drain my wallet....to perhaps 10bill or so. They lost .....so many...ships.No my 94 billion isk would be GONE.

So..I am thinking....Rorqual....erm....nah wait till the price of the capital mining drones drop a bit in price...say 200-300 million a unit. They cost 1.2bil EACH. Those Rorquals had 5 of em.....OUCH.

Amazing changes...but too steep for my wallet.
