I'm actually serious, what good reason is there to go into Minmatar hisec? It doesn't have Jita, it doesn't Amarr, I don't think it's on the route between the two of them, and I don't think it borders any interesting space.

I guess I dipped in briefly to pick up an NPC order for Minmatar Dreadnaughts?

Fuel Block BPOs are the main thing. Also, T2 projectile books.

fyi standings fuckery is why alts exist, don't stress out too much about standings

It actually makes sense too, even from an RP perspective. Whoever owns the system should definitely be able to see who enters before a hostile sees who's already there. It isn't super game changing due to dscan and sending scouts in ahead of time but would be a nice perk for home defense.

A thread in which we post suggestions on how to boost ratting income.

Edit:

100% boost to rat bounties when you have sov.
No local unless you have sov.
-50% shield/armor hitpoints if you don't have sov.
POS make fuel blocks via photosynthesis.
100% boost to faction spawn rate.

Seems fair.

How on earth did that even get removed? It's a terrible feature to be sure but in the Eve political climate I'm surprised that CCP would remove something like that. Suicide gankers is a pretty small lobby compared to the hordes of high sec bears.

When you make the second entry and the debits and credits balance, and you blow them to hell.
What if having sov gave you some rats that defended your structures, so having higher sov meant better auto defenders. This way you could troll cepter only basically unused sov.

If you are a super casual with not a lot of time to play, but you can somehow come up with 50 million isk a day (this is very easy) then you are good for one account each month.

Scam. Literally the easiest way to make money in this game, can pay your account for years if you get a big haul - i'm still living off my riches, and the last time I scammed was two years ago.

Yet true don't use Steam as it will make everything harder since there is one layer more. If i remember correctly there were even some problems with banning from steam affecting the eve player as well.

Question: since we had the sov dev blog, are they going to announce some more change at the fanfest or are they basically done with it?

Supposedly somewhere in the latest eve down under thing they had CCP fozzie and sov stuff was talked about along with super caps and what they want to do with them. (Hint: its nerf them into the ground) https://soundcloud.com/eve-down-under/eve-down-under-episode-97-060315

Granted, this comes from EVE news 24 ( http://evenews24.com/2015/03/07/eve-2-0-an-economy-of-violence/ ) and they didn't mention where in the 1 hour and 20 minutes that CCP fozzie is on the show that the discussion is located and I can't find it while skipping around and don't want to listen to an hour and a half of staticy Australian nerds talking about spaceships.
