I can't believe that people are willing to pay afk camping of an entire region with pretty nonexistent results. Pretty sure that regular hunting would do with the recent brain trust.

What is the isk per hour difference between super ratting and ratting in either a max skilled carrier or dread? Does it really make that big of a difference?

First off, don't rat in a dread ever. Second, a regular rear end carrier can field three fighter groups, and can only field light fighters. Supercarriers can field five fighter groups, and have the option of fielding long-range heavy bombers, which absolutely shred subcaps and rats, and can do it from a distance.

Atlantis is totally real. It was washed under the water at the end of the ice age 12,000 years ago when the glaciers melted and made the ocean levels rise. They had power tools, and also a crude form of electricity.

Here is the issue, I've got close to perfect skills for a Nyx... except leadership skills (or whatever they are called these days). I am really loving deep into training all of my subcap skills to V (weapons specializations, drone specializations, etc.) and I really do not want to waste the time to train up any leadership skills, or gods forbid, heavy fighters V. I guess I am asking can I function in a Nyx without training to use fleet boosters (and Heavy Fighters V)? Edit. I am not going to lie, I also sort of hate the idea of buying a supercap because in the back of my mind I think, "what if someone asks me to actually drop it on someone, I am not rich enough to afford losing it." Double edit. AND I actually have not used any of my capitals since 2011, so all of this fighter wing poo poo is totally new to me. I'd have to relearn carriers... in a super.

I can't answer the first part of your post because I don't have a supercap so I don't know... But when it comes to the risk of losing it, it's all very relative. In most case, unless you go out of your way to assist others, you won't be asked to drop your supercap on anyone. Most people who require assistance will usually ask Theta who are the #1 fast response in Delve. You are much more likely to lose it while ratting if you do not take precautions. If however, you take all the precautions recommended (Be in theta comms, be in fleet, do not be afk, always be aligned, have a cyno, etc etc etc) the risk of losing your super drop dramatically. Just keep in mind you will never be 100% safe.

Relearn carriers in a carrier. Hulls are sub 900m, capswarm fit is barely over 2b total. About the only thing to remember is keep your fighters moving. Hell, log into the test server and relearn there if you really want to do it in the super.

Yeah, I have a thanatos and a moros, which need to be refit. gently caress, when I fit them there was no such thing as capital rigs; that being said, given the wonderful mechanic that is jump fatigue its probably better for me to just buy new ones in Delve.

You don't need Heavy Fighters 5 to use t2 heavy fighters, only level 4. If you can use T2 fighters in a Thanatos it will only take you a few days to train tech 2 on a super. For ratting you do not need fleet boosters at all. Rutibex fucked around with this message at 22:10 on Jan 30, 2019 |

T2 light and heavy fighters just need fighters V and light/heavy fighters to IV i injected it during the booster blitz and it's already paid for itself Also yeah you dont need leadership skills at all for supers (other than whatever is required to sit in it), I just have one on mine to make it tanky as gently caress because i'm a coward

Again, I don't have a super so take this with a grain of salt, but i think most people use the capswarm fit when ratting. Your isk/hour ratio (if you care about that sort of stuff) won't be as good as a ratting fit, but it strongly increases your chances of surviving until help arrives if you get tackled.

With supers there is no such thing as a ratting fit unless you can afford to immediately replace it and guarantee that you’ll make it all back by dedicating 60 hours of perfect ticks Like I said I make 85mil per tick in a capswarm tank fit Hel, I’ve been told that a hyperspacial rigged max gank fit Hel makes 130mil ticks if you’re aligning to your next site and the only super in a -0.7 or lower system

I've been ratting in a -0.2 system and looking at about 1.1 to 1.2mil for Popes and Patriarchs. I went to a -0.9 system to look at them, and the bounty numbers posted on the rats looked the same.

Security status affects what kinds of anomalies spawn and how many, but doesn't affect the rats inside those anomalies.

Gwyneth Palpate posted:Security status affects what kinds of anomalies spawn and how many, but doesn't affect the rats inside those anomalies. Correct. Also, if you are running missions the security status of the system the mission is in (I think it is the mission not the agent) affects loyalty point and mission pay rewards as well. Edit. Sec status obviously affects the kind of rats that spawn in belts though. Wait, do rats still spawn in belts? It occurs to me that in the three months or so I have been back in eve, I haven't warped to a single belt. ZombieLenin fucked around with this message at 14:17 on Jan 31, 2019 |

However, many years ago, CCP took belt chaining out behind the woodshed and put two slugs in its brain. The type of battleship rat that spawns from a chained belt is random, so you can no longer force 1.9M isk bounty rats to continually spawn. Because of this, no one really belt rats, unless it's to bootstrap the ratting ihub index for installing upgrades.

I just wanted to blow everything up in an effort to force a faction spawn.
