Threadly reminder that SOE missions are reaching poorfag levels.

reynipls

oy vey it's like anudda shoah, last time I checked they were 2-2.5k lp or something like that irr

Is that recent? Goons might now be massively grinding L4 missions because they can't rat anymore.

Its probably up to date with the last API pull. Its from the fuzzwork LP store calc.

threadly who cares about pve

threadly who cares about PvP.

Helldunk? Or blueballs?

Also do I join small newbro corp on an alt to re-live the fun times for me?

That's not what I meant.

I'm wondering if those prices took a nosedive just recently or if they have been gradually going down over a long time.

Gradually. They went down from like 1440 isk/lp a couple months ago. Explorers aren't dying fast enough to buy up all the exploration gear i guess. Plus everyone knows that if you are doing level 4 missions in highsec you HAVE TO DO Sisters of Eve because there is no other choices. except there is but don't tell anyone.

So this is the point at which I get wardecced, right?
Also damn, can small ships dish out a lot of dps.

In retrospect, I should have just logged out when I noticed I was being scanned.
Lesson learnt I guess.

how much was the value of your cargo and in what ship were you carrying it in?
also what kind of ship ganked you?

Jamyl is _____

A cumdump

dont ever move more than a few hundred mil outside of a DST
its just asking to die

>amarr

dead

a drifter now

Absolutely, setup an in-game channel, or something.

~300mil in ~12k ehp.
Not paper, but now that I know what dps suicide gankers are capable of, it was still a terribly low tank.
I was moving a ton of ships through the same path and due to limited cargo space I had to squeeze all my assets into all ships, hence the sub-par tank.
Didn't expect a gank, then again - you never can.

What's a DST?
Deep space transport? The tanky industrials?

anything over 100 mil in a T1 hauler is a gank magnet when you go through certain systems

tfw no fortizar

No one touches the empress.
>implying she doesn't have a secret clone located in Polaris

Is this Autopilot only? I move valuable stuff in T1 haulers all the time and not even been locked.

obviously they can't gank absolutely everyone, but you are pushing your luck by trying it

No, manual warping can get you killed just the same, assuming the ganker isn't a retard.

If you use cloak+mwd trick that's another story though.

Is this what has EVE gone to?
I swear it wasn't that bad a couple years ago.

I wasn't autopiloting. And this guy was pretty organized.
Had his own industrials on gate to scoop loot and a scanner on at least one entry to the pipe.

I'm not sure if it's a good thing that I survived, he'll be out for vengeance for sure.

>then again - you never can.

>Deep space transport? The tanky industrials?
Yes. You need racial (that's Gallente btw) industrial 5 to get into one.
Then you need to tank it up. Also cargo expanders aren't very good on those because they don't affect the fleet hold, which is where most of the cargo space in them is.

The fleet hold is also useful because you can make is so fleet mates can open it directly.

>I'm not sure if it's a good thing that I survived, he'll be out for vengeance for sure.
Depends on the level of autism you are dealing with.
Most of them are just out for easy money, so they won't even remember you as long as you remember not to actually communicate with them.

>Needing to talk in game
All we need is ideas for player names, a team logo and some team music

Example of a team :
implyingrigged.info/wiki//ink/

We'd also need a coach with a trip for identification purposes and "proof of interest" which could be only people replying to this post.

Have you guys seen that review video made by a /v/bro? it was hilarious and ripped this game to shred

>could be only
Ignore the word "only".

Well, that was fun while it lasted.

>anything over 100 mil in a T1 hauler is a gank magnet when you go through certain systems

cost for a fully fitted tornado = 120mil for 12.000 alpha
>10.000 ISK per EHP
you can bring in 10mil for every 1k EHP
you can double that, 20 mil per 1k EHP, if you wanna bet on the 50% loot drop rate and the ganker isn't a retard

> tornado
That's one ship class too high, m8.

A vexor can do it.

>Blasters

Mandelore stop posting this in every thread

Catalysts are the most common, but a vexor can go up to ~1k DPS for ~30 million, while a tornado has the benefit of having huge alpha and only needing to shoot once or twice, which means that its paper DPS doesn't work as it seems.

Either way works, but 100mil/10kEHP is still the proper way to go about it.

>over 50k hangar space untrained
Who needs cargo expanders? All I'm doing is small time

A catalyst is not really appropriate for this kind of ganking.

500m range means you will need to be right on top of him and he can spawn anywhere around the gate, so you'll have to burn 10-12 km. He might have aligned and warped at that point.

wow I feel dumb and paranoid now.
I guess I should train for a DST

>blockade runners
I was always wondering - how do cloaks work?
On other players' grids I mean.

Do I disappear the moment I click it or after the animation finishes?
Also can you cloak if you're being targeted?

I know only of the 2000m restriction, but it can't be the only one, can it?
I'm super confus.

>Do I disappear the moment I click it or after the animation finishes?

IIRC you become untargetable as soon as the server recognizes you pressed cloak.
Your ship bracket doesn't actually disappear from other players' overviews until the animation actually finishes however (+/- 1 second or so)

the best gank ship is a maller or a fleet of mallers

>can you cloak if you're being targeted?
If you're in the process of being targeted you can still cloak and their targeting will fail.

If you're already locked then no, you cannot cloak.

Generally speaking, I made good use of courier contracts before I trained up a DST character on my account. That 1-2plex + 200 million for the DST itself + modules and you still have to only plex 1 account when you're done.

For courier contracts, either google Red Frog Freight or join "haulers channel" ingame and read the MOTD.

DSTs are best left to out of corp alts so you can move shit while you're wardecked.

You hit the button and you disappear. The only varying factor here is lag - you can still get locked before you cloak if you're really unlucky.

you disappear from overview a few seconds after pressing it, but once it's pressed, if people try to lock you, they will be unable to and it'll say you're invulnerable or you don't exist or something

if someone is in the process of targeting you you can cloak and their lock will fail. if you are already targeted, i.e. yellow or red boxed, you cannot cloak

Sweet. Thanks guys.
Cloaking sounds like something I want to train asap.
Now I know the true power of cloak + mwd trick.

the covops cloak on the blockade runner is even more foolproof. but yeah cloaking is real op, and both types of t2 industrials are really good

solo pvp at sun m8s, fite me with my 12 falcon alts

>page 10

>solo pvp

Why is there only one type of viable non aggressive support role (RR)? OGB doesn't count.
Remote seboing/tracking links come close, but these don't have dedicated fittings for the job, just some weird mutants that aren't combat worthy.

I'd love to see a fleet composition where members are paired up - SP intensive "big ship" guy with a small support guy and they together form a more formidable foe than two crap DPS fits.
Knowing CCP this will never happen. But why? It sounds like a fun idea on paper.

with what they're doing to ogb maybe they'll make some more interesting stuff for boosting allies, like an area effect remote tracking computer or something, or a module you can target to multiple people

Yeah but it'll be pretty passive - put one buffing module on auto-cycle and play the rest of the engagement like you would in a normal fit.
I was thinking of something more active (like RR is now), though I have no idea how that'd work.

I'm hoping that the ship running a link module gets fucked on it's cap, so you need to either cap chain it or time the effect for when its best. Also encourages counterplay in neuts/damps

Rest in peace, Ashurman.

Here's the dream for links.
Link modules are like Siege/Triage. When activated, provides the link bonuses to all allied ships that are locked. Can't move, significant boosts to self logi, can't receive remote logi.

indeed.

>Can't move, significant boosts to self logi, can't receive remote logi.

This sounds abusable

>people just calculate how much alpha/dps it takes to destroy an immovable linkship through its reps
>always carry one gay setup to blap it off the field first thing
>side that doesn't bring gay blap setup loses links from start and has to face links

Let me know what set up is alphaing down a command dessie or t3

Dreadblap

Shit it's true.

Alright, you go ahead and bring your dread to fights where links matter

Man the new tactical view is fantastic

if ccp aren't retarded they'll be massively reducing the bonuses links give, as well as making the ranges sensible

>if ccp aren't retarded

...

>that one guy who uses links to solo pvp in frigs

What should be the amount of ships in fleet to make bringing a link ship viable? There has to be a cutoff point of when a link ship is more valuable than another ship of a different type or else no one will bring them.

>one guy

>that one guy that is most of lowsec pvp

no idea m8. and I wouldn't be overly concerned about links becoming useless, that's way preferable to links staying overpowered

EVE pvp has gone to shit when killboards became popular (about the time wormholes were implemented).
People (some people) started trying so hard to score kills that the lengths they'll go to secure kills know no bounds.
Guess this is what happens when you mix autism with pvp.

But what can you do? It's EVE. That's what this game is about after all.

>EVE pvp has gone to shit when killboards became popular (about the time wormholes were implemented)

more like some idiots tried to do dumb shit. it doesn't matter

No, Zkillboard is the collaboration of information extracted from API's.

If Zkillboard didn't exist people would still gawk about their kills and efficiency because that stuff is available through the API anyway.
