~My first fight with Black Legion~ by Leo Showers So we form a Harpy Fleet with over 100 members, however it appeared that people were joining it and not in QPO. We fight Black Legion who are in Maelstroms, they get a bombing run off on us initially but that was okay. We then warp around station and end up fighting them on a POS but they drop Triage Carriers while we are still shooting in our Harpy Fleet. Our FC makes the call to reship to Dominixs but no-one has them. The end. The Triage carriers was a bit of a  moment as we really weren't killing that much so who knows.

The original call out was that Black Legion had like 100 Maelstroms in QPO and all we could form up at the time was a Harpy Fleet. I think they ended up bridging in more support and were ready for a fight, all they ended up doing was incapping a JB and shoot an onlining POS. At first we figured a Super was tackled or something because they bridged the Maelstroms in but it doesn't really seem like it.

I'm struggling a bit with a skill decision. My char is currently int/mem mapped and I would like to push some NAV skills before I remap to per/wil for guns and spaceship command. The char will fly mainly AssFrigs, Covert-Ops, Ceptor, Dictor, HAC and Recon-Ships. My current skill levels are: Acceleration Control 4 Afterburner 4 Cynosural Field Theory 5 Evasive Maneuvering 5 Fuel Conservation 4 High Speed Maneuvering 4 Navigation 5 Warp Drive Operation 4 Would it be worth to train any of those skills to level 5? I guess Warp Drive Operation 5 is a must for Covert Ops and Ceptors and the cap skills are probably nice to have. But I'm wondering especially if Acceleration Control 5 would be a good improvement. THX for the help.

What's the current resource for finding out how reimbursement works and what fits are reimbursable? 100% reimbursement bonus sounds to me like "lead your first frigate roam, take advantage of being space bourgeois" but the wiki is always out of date and I'm not really familiar with confluence etc

This new reimbursement rules, especially since it came just in time for me to get my first T1 cruiser skills. Time to stock up on stabbers. Edit - just put together 4 fully newbee fit stabbers for about 75m, most of the cost being in the hulls and rigs. Can't wait to blow these up. causticBeet fucked around with this message at 10:21 on Feb 26, 2014 |

Nope, but since I kinda talked the game up to one of my friends and he subbed a new account, I'd kind of feel like a shitheel just welping on out to null and leaving him in gallente highsec clueless and alone.  I am trying to convince him that high sec space is the poops and he needs to start blowing up asap, but he wants to start Space-Farmville for some reason (  ) and scanning down sites. Maybe I'll just join up and see about sponsoring him in a few months or something.

"Teenagers Have Poor Judgement" stop using that joke wrong. I guess I should at least explain the joke: In the 06/07(?) war against LV TCF suprise sieged 1v- which was typical TCF fashion. Goons rushed in to help and Redswarm Federation basically held the system. LV used this as an oppurtunity to unveil The Enslavers new Avatar and deploy the DDD through a cyno (a long dead mechanic). Despite destroying hundreds of ships RSF held the system and the station was named "1v- Teenagers have poor Judgement" in an attempt to point out The Enslaver was a child. The problem is Kugustumen outed Enslaver as a GM so clearly wasn't a child. FoF fucked around with this message at 13:01 on Feb 26, 2014 |

What I remember most is him being on teamspeak and rallying everyone to reship so we could fight it out with the actual fleet LV brought. Say what you will about the guy (and there's a lot to say) but he was a drat good motivator in those dark times.

Tell posted:I'm struggling a bit with a skill decision. They are all good skills really since they benefit you in all ships and scenarios basically, Acceleration control to 5 will increase MWD speed by 5%, not that big of a deal really. Afterburner 4 is a short train but will see the most benefit. reduces the duration 5% and capacitor usage 10% of afterburners Fuel conservation is 2x the training speed of afterburner 5 for the same 10% reduction to capacitor skill that afterburner 5 gets you. It's only around 7-8 days training. High Speed maneuvering reduces MWD by 5% capacitor usage. Warp driver operation is good for those poo poo warp sectors where you drain your entire capacitor if you don't have 5. Look at your skills, if you have 5's in all your shield tank/armor tank/targeting/engineering skills and you want to "finish" section of your skill training, I would train all of them. if you're still low SP and want to fly great ships faster, I would train Warp drive operation, afterburner and maybe fuel conservation and leave the rest. In a year/two time, you come back and polish the last of the skills. Acceleration and High Speed are usually pulsed items, as in you turn them on then off right away so you aren't going to see a HUGE increase from that 26 days training time.
