Those questioning the number of combat drones are probably not FCs. That number seems right for the people in system. I actively have 16 out in any system I’m in during a casual roam, not including helpers having theirs as well.

Also there’s dozens of separate groups likely throat slitting at all of these

I stopped playing right before the Deklein war cause I went to college. Now I'm back and all grown up with a piece of paper.

I had 7 accounts, but gonna drop that to 3 or 5 this time. Can I buy "skill extractors" in jita and sell the extra sp, or is there plex involved in that process?
Is VNI/Ishtar afk ratting still a thing? Is rorq mining still the fotm?

You can buy extractors with isk, though I think it's more economical to buy plex with said isk and get the multi-pack of extractors on the New Eden store.

I think they got rid of them juuuuuust as I started playing. Like they existed for a week or two when I started, then they got rid of them.

Which was nice because "what's docking?" in 2014 wormholes.

Yeah I was mainly active in wormholes from 2011-2014. It was a pain point for early wormhole life. Getting podded out of high class holes was often a several day affair to get back in if you had a bad chain. When I went back in with Hole Squad in 2017, there were so many quality of life changes that made wormhole life much less tedious.

I remember logistics being a pain in the rear end in a C2 with C5/Null statics for that exact reason (but that was post Citadel, so we could at least dock up). Logi for all the C4s I've lived in was "mercy of the static of our statics", but usually we'd get by. The problem now with all the trig minor victories no longer being marked in the route planner, it's rolling the dice.

Also Niarja being gone makes it reaaaaal interesting.

E: as I say that, patch notes:

quote:

User Interface:

Separated the Autopilot avoidance settings for EDENCOM and Triglavian Minor Victory systems.
Added warning pop-ups when attempting to jump through a stargate leading to an EDENCOM or Triglavian Minor Victory system.
Added Triglavian warning icons to stargates leading to Triglavian Minor Victory systems.

This new trig space is absolutely dumb and terrible. Standings take forever to grind if you didn’t do the exploit before it was an exploit. There’s zero things to do. Logistics is horrible in and out and to even take gates you need +3 standings. What where they thinking? I can’t even figure out the intention of it all.

Part of me thinks it was to make a Thera-like region. The problem is as you say, plus you can't even set your med clone there. You have no precise control over what system you end up getting pulled to using filaments (you can, however, do a specific constellation or system "type" [border/internal/home]), and using a filament to get out, you either get a nearby k-space or a random Trig minor victory.

It did shake the map up a bit, which is cool. Annoying because logistics, but cool.

The funny thing about all this, and the whole reason I thought they were avoiding NPC delve, is because all those TEST capitals in there are dead now. Whether we will kill them, or panfam kill them, they aren't going home. I didn't think they would be this stupid and actually trap themselves in between the wolves and the lions.
