[Retribution, Electrical Abyssal Solo t0-t2] Coreli A-Type Small Armor Repairer Coreli A-Type Small Armor Repairer Reactive Armor Hardener Assault Damage Control II Heat Sink II Eutectic Compact Cap Recharger 1MN Afterburner II Small Focused Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Small Focused Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Small Focused Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Small Focused Pulse Laser II, Scorch S [Empty High slot] Small Energy Locus Coordinator I Small Energy Burst Aerator II Conflagration S x4 Scorch S x4 So this runs electrical filaments only. Only loot the caches (the one lootbox right by the gate) I'm averaging about 5minutes per t1 site with perfect assfrig skills for this. Average payout has been around 6-7m per site, but sometimes you get lucky. t2 filaments take closer to 10-12 minutes but pay out 15-16m per site with occasional drops of 30+. t1s I've only encountered 1 spawn I even had to do anything special to fight. t2s there are a couple hairy rooms you have to deal with, and I've lost 1 retribution already because I spawned in a bad environment cloud into the hardest hitting DPS room and massive neut pressure. If you run with friends (or alts) you will clear faster and your income goes up even with loot splitting, but only to a point. If you kill everything in the time it takes you to loot the cache and burn to the gate just as the last rat pops in every room adding people won't make you more money, but if you get to the gate before you kill everything you could use more DPS. running with frigates takes 3 filaments to activate the gate but also pays out 3x the loot. So blitzing t1s or t2s pays more than cruiser t3s and even some t4s does, taking into account time to clear and lower loot drops in the higher filaments.

L0cke17 posted:[Retribution, Electrical Abyssal Solo t0-t2] I've literally spent like 3 days working on an post to explain how to do filaments properly solo and with idiot friends. My plan rn is to basically skip electricals. The loot payout is not strictly 3:1 in higher tier outside of 6s (6 is where it becomes clear that the math for frigate loot trend becomes asymptotic), but t4-6 electrical filaments are subject to such natural scarcity and market fuckery it's not worth dealing with them. Also there are so many situations where multiboxing goes wrong it's not worth loving with - even dual boxing 1 dps and 1 logi with my buddy on the third account got insane in t6 electrical. Oh and what was that? A tachyon cloud? Is that why we're all 40km apart now? Or dead? Hmmm. Also each filament type has locked mutaplasmids and honestly the ones for electrical aren't that great and their market has entirely collapsed. I also plan to include how I made 20b rolling mid tier mutaplasmids and scamming pubbies into believing they were better than deadspace modules (protip: bundle dps and prop in a contract and peddle that poo poo as ELITE PEE VEE PEE BUNDLE)

Skipping electricals is fine, especially for higher tiers. But for just getting your feet wet and learning how to do filaments in general an 80m isk assault frigate that pays for itself in an hour is a great starting point imo. You absolutely can do higher tiers and make more money but for my level of laziness I'm happy sticking to tier 2 and down right now and just loving around for an hour a couple nights a week and buying some new junk. t1 electricals are like 15k isk max.

Phlegmish posted:What is the newbee logi ship? It is generally recommended to use the Minmatar "Burst" T1 frigate to get a hang of reps. If you enjoy it, the "Logistics Frigate" skill (and a Frigate racial skill to V) will unlock the Caldari "Kirin" or Minmatar "Scalpel" which get the most use. We don't really have a need for Armor repair frigates at the moment. The next step up are the T1 Logistics Cruisers, the Minmatar "Scythe" or Caldari "Osprey" for shield fleets. If you really like these, you'll eventually train a racial cruiser skill to V and "Logistics Cruisers" for the Minmatar Scimitar or Caldari Basilisk, which shine extremely well when you have Logistics Cruisers trained to V. Armor fleets will use the T2 Amarr Guardian or Gallente Oneiros. Generally, Minmatar/Gallente ships are able to put out reps on their own, while Caldari/Amarr ships usually "buddy up" with "capacitor transfer" modules, that beam cap from ship-to-ship. This allows Caldari and Amarr Logi ships to have insane levels of capacitor, unless one of you dies :3 Otacon fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Jan 14, 2021 |

Phlegmish posted:What is the newbee logi ship? Burst/bantam (frigate) and osprey/scythe (cruiser) are the T1 ships we use. Only the osprey is first-class in any of our doctrines but they’ll all give you a sense of the gameplay to see if you like it without too much training investment. If you do, train into the kirin or scalpel (T2 logistics frigates) and then the scimitar (T2 logistics cruiser).

Phlegmish posted:What is the newbee logi ship? I don't think we have doctrine fit for T1 frigate logi so the most newbee one might be Scalpel/Kirin on Jackdaw fleets. You should be able to bring a Burst/Bantam T1 logi frig on those too but I didn't see official fits.

I seem to remember doing exactly this in the Casino War after we had moved to Saranen. Xenuria applied into P Horde and docked up in their keepstar, and then once they kicked him he just never undocked and talked to the Horde people in local all day. No clue how long that actually lasted, but it couldn't have been pleasant for the bad guys.

I'm noticing that it's not exactly helpful to have dread skills on my main character these days, for everything other than the big loving brawls, it looks like it's more helpful to have my main running around in subcap fleets while the dread alt sits at a mid, waiting to be dropped ten at a time on fozzisov nodes

for the next big throw down fight, I'll definitely jump in both characters with dreads, buuuuut in the day-to-day fight over sov, it's kind of looking like subcap fights with heavy assault cruisers create the space for capitals to sweep the objectives

Heavy Assault Cruisers V, Jackdaws V, and perfect Navigation skills Logi Boosters More often than not, when my FC is delaying undock, it's because we need more logi and boosters.

I haven't tried the warp-in/warp-off Tengu (despite that character having the skills) so I assume it'll take some getting used to the timing. Will have to look into it further because I just can't rationalize having 300-700mil Claymore pods when those Muninn/Cerb fleets usually only take heavy losses when bubbled. Dalael posted:I do not recommend dual boxing a logi. [...] You lose too much efficiency if you dualbox other characters and that can often result in people needlessly dying. Agreed! Fortunately however, booster ships are extremely easy to fly and I can focus 99% on keeping people alive on Monitor-1 while only needing to listen for "boosts down" on Monitor-2.
