ullerrm posted:It generates a bunch of event sites in space, similar to the old Blood Raider / Guristas events -- none of the point earning poo poo from the Serpentis event. Just warp to sites that spawn, and kill everything. (I think of it as tipping over the protestors' Hoverrounds.) Mostly frigates and cruisers; I had no problem running them in a Hecate. I skipped the Serpentis event because, to me, it wasn't really worth it. Though to Tyrrax it was, which is why HABIT's corp tax jumped to 50% while he was sperging for top 10 and doing all that PVE. I'm glad CCP realized people didn't like it compared to the other events like Crimson Harvest. PVE still sucks in EVE. Mekchu fucked around with this message at 21:40 on Sep 12, 2016 |

Is this that "White Purity" thing?  I guess it's kinda like Wolfenstein in that it's fun to kill Nazis because gently caress Nazis. But at the end you don't put on Hitler's tight pants and riding boots and go "man, I look good in this."

I'll still do it though because there are so few skins that don't look like dogshit Police Comet Raata Sunset Executioner (I will be forever butthurt that the Executioner gets the A-wing skin and not the Slicer) Interbus for Miniluv to roleplay angry bees Maybe a few more? But yeah let me pay 300m to make my ship look like I took it to a Maaco for a terrible respray.

Take the IGC Victory Typhoon, for example (bottom left in this image). When am I gonna fly a Typhoon? Ditto for the Ishukone Scorp. The ships that I actually do tend to fly in fleets -- ANIs, logistics cruisers, confessors, etc -- tend to have lovely skins, or no skins. ullerrm fucked around with this message at 21:53 on Sep 12, 2016 |

To be fair the IGC Typhoon was only for EVE NT Collides. The IGC Apocalypse is for this fall season but yeah it's sort of the same issue I guess. Actually I think anything IGC is for the player ran tournaments. I also don't think EVE NT, etc. get a say in what ship CCP will make the skin for either. I wish the art team would do more stuff like the IGC skins, with popping colors etc, than the "let me put brown next to really dark green and call it a day" Mekchu fucked around with this message at 21:57 on Sep 12, 2016 |

CCP amaze me. lovely recolour skins all over the place, and when they finally release decent skins (white skins for amarr gently caress yes) they're free from a piss easy ingame event. Do they actually want money? Downside, I don't fly amarr anything. Oracle sometimes maybe possibly when I lose everything else I have.

Yeah I can really only speak to the ships I fly often enough that I bother to even look at the skins. 99% of the time it goes like this: "meh, can't even tell the difference without a color wheel" "lol no that looks even worse than the original" "it's flat red and looks stupid" "hm that's ok I might buy it if it's 50m LOL 400m NOPE" Free Quafe Tristan skins were nice though

Skins that are good: Amarr Raata Sunset skins Amarr Kador skins Amarr EoM skins Gallente Police Pursuit Comet Gallente Kronos Police Skin Caldari Matigu Seabeast A select few Blue Tiger skins mostly for Minmatar. The rest are almost complete garbage, if not complete garbage. Particularly the Caldari. They get the biggest shaft. dialhforhero fucked around with this message at 02:28 on Sep 13, 2016 |

Thoughts on the best racial BR/DST combo in practice? I can't find any recent commentary that isn't by Gevlon Goblin, and his focus is more on surviving highsec gank attempts. I see Amarr get mentioned a lot but don't you have a conflict between agility and tank mods (also cargo capacity for the BR)? Seems like shield tanking might be better. Main uses would be moving industry poo poo through scouted null, loot truck for wormhole daytripping fleets, maybe bomb truck/fuel truck for blops dropping. e: apparently they were last rebalanced in mid-2014? so I guess there is stuff out there but it's so hard to know what's current  Buschmaki posted:Hugo Boss still makes money dude.

Agility mods on a dst are next to useless because you can align by pulsing the mwd or ab for one cycle. Just fit for tank and warp stabs. With hyperspatials you can outrun anything cruiser sized so you only have to worry about gatecamps and interceptor roams. You can scout for the first and with enough warp core stabs you have a decent chance of moonwalking away from the second.

I have a question about the launcher. It will save your password for you, but has a little message stating that this is insecure. How insecure is it? Does it broadcast your password in plaintext across the network? Does it merely store an unencrypted copy on your local hard drive, making it easy for an evil houseguest to steal your Eve credentials?

It's something like the launcher doesn't actually save your password, it saves a login token which is not invalidated even if you change your password. Basically if someone else knew your password and chose to remember the details on their launcher, even if you changed your password they could still login to your account at any time. A very  solution

AAPsel posted:Agility mods on a dst are next to useless because you can align by pulsing the mwd or ab for one cycle. I had forgotten about that. I would only be moving the DST through core GSF space with a +1 interceptor scout so I think the only real danger is getting unlucky and landing on a gate at the same time as an unreported gang or dictor. With a citadel in literally every system it's stupidly easy to safe up at the first sign of trouble. Sounds like the BR is the bigger differentiator, and the combination of 3 lowslots + larger base hold makes the Viator pretty compelling. Gallente has the bonus of netting me a max-skilled Epithal (I'm ramping up a PI farm) so there's that.

If that is correct, then me as a user am not any less secure if I use it. It's just less secure because the feature exists at all because if my password is ever compromised I'm hosed no matter what.

Blizzard is notorious for using some of the best graphics for their RMT store, and many MOBA games are sure to offer the best looking stuff in their RMT shops (DOTA2 immortal items, for example).

I really like the Impel/Prorator combo. All those low slots give you a lot of options for cargo size/survivability depending on what you're doing. The Impel aligns and warps in 10 seconds regardless of fit with the MWD trick. I can have either 99% resists and a sick EHP buffer or the ability to carry over 107k m3 using GSCs. Plus EoM skins look pretty baller on both.

quick return to squadchat are there any gsf groups that are actively doing pvp stuff right now? I'm feeling lost in the huge list of squads/sigs/swarms. I can't tell if everything is dead because we're still setting up in Delve, or maybe people are having fun and I don't see it because I'm not getting the right pings. I idle in blackops pub and the miniluv pub channels but neither of them seem to do anything in USTZ. SV requires a vouch, reavers is closed. I could go two regions away to solo bubblecamp something or drop corp on a char to do FW but then what is the point of being in the alliance?

Pathfinders is fun but you need to be a bit of a self starter given the nature of wormhole day trips. If people don't go out looking for nerds to kill or good krabbing holes we won't have any pings. I don't know how often Miniluv public gets pinged unless we're short numbers. Go blap yourself a highsec pubbie and join for real

Hehe, so who is better ? Theta or Sigma ? I am in Miniluv, but unable to do that all the time. EG is dead. Other SIGs depend on what's happening, like caps n poo poo. Who should I join ? SV wanted a vouch, what I personally find hilarious considering the service and my killboard (floating at 1000-1100 all time top killers  ) I am doing mainly EU a DT timezone and I am looking for a chill place with nice people. I don't mind helping newbees, but I loving hate spergs. What is the best for me ? Looks like my no RL times are over for now, so it should not be time consuming.
