The Flow must not be denied. Extirpate those would would deny the Flow.

I will bitch though that NPC ships that were EDENCOM weren't even listed as EDENCOM. Nothing in the details of the ship at all. They seemed like like regular Faction NPCs that you would get concorded for shooting at. It wasn't until i flew to the correct staging area and noticed PCs shooting them and then using my rookie ship to pot shot them.

If only the Interface told you enough to get you squared away with what is going on. PVE mechanics don't need to be shrouded in loving mystery.

JFC this game.

This actually screws up people and is NEVER explained properly.

Like said above, go to a system that just started getting invaded by the Trigs (use tha agency tab to find it).

Go to the smallest Edencom spawn (will show up in the agency tab again)

There will be some ships there (or they will spawn shortly) that are NOT a Trig or "Edencom" (like the new ships). Instead it will be racial navy ships for your region. Depending on your overview settings, they may or may not show up.

Kill ANY on the racial naval ships that spawn at your site, then warp out.

After the tick, you will lose like .02 standings with Edencom and no change with the Trigs.

Note: there are still some Trigs that will shoot at you. Not exactly sure if I encountered a bug or they are special somehow, didn't stick around to verify. But the gate camps will leave you alone.

To expand upon this, I saw the exact same gain with the trigs that I saw losses with Edencom. I am at .01 and -.01 respectively after shooting at a few ships getting blown up by another fleet. I asked if I could do just that in local and I think every person shooting at things invited me over.

I mean it was pretty stupid at the time, every time PL did a 'rapid deployment' there was a big post written by Elise or Penif or whoever was sky marshalling the nerds that pointed out who was based out of where, who their alts were, and if we were greenlighted to gently caress with them. Don't drink and hot drop.

I wasn't defending them or anything, just pointing out how stupid grath is acting like setups literally are impossible. Because "YOU undocked"

Grath winds down a bit later in the recording after some people calm him down, it's pretty clear he's just incredulous that people were dumb enough to do dumb crap like hot drop with a rev within titan bridge range of goon staging.

I can tell by the later tone of voice that he's basically doubting the capability of other people in the call to remember to breathe without being instructed, he doesn't yell too much beyond like the initial minute or so.

I just find it hilarious that anyone would get mad about it at all. I can understand getting mad cuz you lost poo poo, but getting mad because others lose poo poo? C'mon! If an idiot wants to throw away a rev every week and affords it with his own effort, I say let him do it.

Yeah I think he wasn't pissed at anything other than the revenant, and at the time, there were like... 9 in the game or something and PL had several of them.

What EVE needs, is a ship that carries titans and/or motherships as fighters, can 1 shot a Keepstar every 2 minutes with a doomsday and use its cost as a balancing factor.

I met a guy who played it and learned I was a goon and would not divulge anything else about himself other than he is a high sec pubbie. Like, immediately his demeanor wrt the game changed. Never told me his name, systems, missions, etc.

I thought it was silly but I guess I see why and respect that.
