ccp bows to the csm removed regional labels on MER information burn jita rumored to be happening soon PL controls the north with an iron fist PL owns keepstars all over new eden PL bankrolled the first of these citadels GSF terraforming delve as their new home own basically every rorqual in eve first 30b titans are produced in delve both coalitions said to have over 20k members ancient gevlonian scriptures tell of two mega coalitions who will descend upon new eden and bring an era of unprecedented economic growth with them these are the coalition twins they own money moons all over the universe you likely live next to one of their poses right now every new goon has the mark of mittani in them upon joining the mega coalitions are in regular communication with ccp following the word of the mittani and gobbinz through the csm discovered the art of the rorqual they learned how to use them in a week excel spreadsheets allows them full access to optimal station trading low tier alliances entrust their supers with them (in their citadels) the coalitions are a decade old from the standpoint of a normal player in reality, they have existed since the game released in 2003 and will last until the end of the game they have been shown the truth by ccp themselves the coalitions will guide eve players into a new age of wisdom, peace and love

I consider new player "focused" groups and "friendly" groups to be different.
A new player "focused" groups can treat their members like a resource to be farmed. Which I guess is a win-win for a mindless null-cuck.
Josiah Davis
Both are literally the spec-ed of EVE, fuck off

Thanks. My snake fit is pretty similar but even with painters I do less damage to battleships with fury than with normal or precision, you have that problem?
Mason Morales
Is it worth training for a minmatar carrier if I already have gal carrier 5
Jose Brooks
>pve
no, not worth it
Charles James
I have honestly never tried using faction over fury, I'll give it a go. But I don't think that t2 cruise have any issue applying to angel battleships.
Colton Phillips
Do you need all supports and tank side skills at V to fly carriers? I can fly an Ishtar all T2 and quite nice now, I'm thinking about going for that home stretch to fat isk
Connor Davis
Doesn't a rorq pull isk faster than a carrier?
Isaiah Peterson
if you're just ratting you only need the bare minimum because capitals are retardedly powerful. same for ratting in an ishtar too desu
Jacob Ramirez
>mining
Angel Price
carrier can warp out whenever it wants.
Kayden Reyes
getting all your support skills to 5 is a good idea anyway you don't NEED them but it certainly helps to have shield/armor compensation trained to at least 4
it requires a much higher initial investment to do so and requires risky siege mode to be effective
Jeremiah Nelson
Thanks lads. I'll make a plan in the morning and see what kind of long term jewery ccp is trying to pull with the training time.
Josiah Rodriguez
carriers are at least a few months due to the nav skills, the racial skills take about a week or so
David Hall
And they get to write all the haikus they could ever want
Kevin Barnes
What about fighter skills? Do you need level 4?
Asher Hughes
why would you? do you think your 9999999 dps fagmobile would be unable to break the tank on the rats without all the 5% per level skills maxed?
Henry Morales
if you want T2 fighters you need light fighters 4 T2 is a lot better than T1 with drones
Grayson Baker
every extra second helps when it can take 30+ seconds in between sites, the main slowdown for me is the waiting for the fighters's guns to cycle so they can start shooting something else
if I'm lazy with my fighters I'll only get 30m ticks, but if I'm really micromanaging things I can hit up to 50m
David Green
jelly
Jack Martin
I just don't know if it's worth it to switch to carrier ratting for me. I've got a char that has min carrier 4 and level 3 fighter skills but the guys with the big ticks probably have near max skills.
ATM im blitzing lvl4s for Isk cos I have standings to burn. I make between 100 and 200 mil per hour, it's just mindnumbing boring and I can't bring myself to do it for hours.
Austin Torres
you should be primarily skilling for the things you actually want to do in eve, i.e. not ratting

why doesn't CCP remove systems so there's less space for everyone?
less space -> value of remaining space increases -> more fights -> more fun
Andrew Harris

Lucas Torres
because it's hard, and because ccp prefers to do nothing instead of doing things
Robert Mitchell

Luke Sanders
Well my goal is to transition from having a subcap PVP char and a highsec money maker into having subcap main/carrier+fax+dread alt and maybe a super in a year. To make that happen I'll need a lot of Isk.
Xavier Martinez
What's a brawler like the thorax but with shields instead?
Jeremiah Garcia
>Skill injectors up to 700m
Cooper Williams
there aren't really any that are the same. if you meme fit your moa and put blasters on it it's slow as fuck and can't really afford to use a cap booster so it gets memed by neuts and also more trashed by smaller ships because its dronebay is shit and also no tracking bonus

Kayden Mitchell
Damn so there is little point in getting rattle instead of ishtar or vni? They seem to have so little tank...or is it only for angels? Because i wanted to do in drones, and 30% em resist seems low.
