Endie posted:Part of me feels that you'd probably want a whole weapons-system that only targeted bombs, since the ability to firewall a bit with defenders then clear bombs then swap to anti-ship dps seems on the powerful side. But another way to counter bombers would be good, yeah. I just have deep Caldari PVE roots and extensive missile skills, so it's just wishful thinking. Bomb defense would be a hell of a role and Newbie Caldari missile ships would be superstars.

Altran posted:Ok I have been on pl.pl forum for my phorde spy (can you even call it a spy?), and I stumbled upon snigg public recruitment thread, one of the question that gets asked alot in there is to post a dread travel fit, and someone even went as far as saying none of the thread in the recruitment forum is correct. i am just curious, what is a correct dread travel fit? i think the inquirer didn't gave enough information , do i expect to travel with a group, or solo? am i using jump drive or star gates, etc... I think they would be satisfied with an answer like, I'm not eating space aids for a 3 billion ISK ship, and I'd rather buy it on site or just exclude myself from dread pings when we get wherever you were looking to travel to. If I have to travel with a dread I'd rather just keep a mobile depot and a MWD on hand. You can get dreads to enter warp in one MWD cycle with as little as a leadership booster in fleet with Skirmish Warfare V trained. So in the sense of gate travel just MWD cycle like the supers should be doing. For jump travel you can dock or your Nag should have cap injectors anyway since you should be ninja sieging. But for the most part a dread fit of mine is no different from a combat fit save for a mwd and a mobile depot.

Dr. Pangloss posted:66 contracts and an ISK transfer later and one of my characters is now devoid of all assets and isk, excluding one set of +4 Int / Mem implants when I remap in about 10 days. Inspired by VG, I'm taking him on a walkabout, starting with a Pend Insurance provided Velator, my mission will be to take him from nothing to something. Not sure what the ultimate goal is yet, but I like the idea of having a character that can fly any frigate, destroyer or cruiser and seeing what I can do with him. I did something similar since yesterday but it was basically putting a new character into horde. I haven't ratted with anything lower than 50 million SP in five years and this morning I found myself pulling serpentis frigates away from its cruiser friends. I loving hate to loving say it goddammit but the motherfucking dailies WoW bullshit is fun. gently caress.

somnolence posted:Incentive for everyone to log in and undock once a day. And I'm upset about how eager I am to get home and take a few more of my ultra low sp cyno alts through their dailies. The first character I took through a daily was a 50M SP character in a Raptor with T2 guns. I took a level 1 mission to avoid having to wait for belt spawns and found that I could blap frigate rats. Instead of stopping at the first rat I found the blapping and agility so satisfying that I finished the mission. Motherfucking stupid game. But with so much SP it's not very satisfying to have another TEN THOUSAND WHOLE S-Pees  . Sure enough, take the same 10k and spend it upgrading a bunch of core skills from level one to two and the daily is a half hour of fun and possibly some refit to go with it after freeing up some fitting with skills.

I sold a young member of GSF 12 injectors for 4 PLEX as a small experiment and I've been meaning to follow up with him to see how he's doing. I'm not completely convinced injectors are a good habit for the younglings. I agree completely with 10k SP awarded as a trickle, but not a pile of 500,000.

Morris posted:I used it to get past some of the more ridiculous time-gated skills (CPU/Powergrid/Electronics Upgrades/Hull Upgrades/Weapon Upgrades 5) and ultimately into an interceptor and bomber weeks earlier than I could have otherwise. At the time those were basically the only fleets going out and if I had spent another month spinning in a shitfit T1 frigate with gimped fittings I may not have kept playing. I wish they'd stop with level V prereqs and move toward a wider range of ship effectiveness based on skills and specializations. Wanna fly a racial cruiser level 1 HAC? Have your HAC but enjoy incredibly poo poo fitting and DPS.

Hexyflexy posted:CCP losing CCP Veritas is the dumbest thing they've ever done. He is by far the best (and only, as far as I can tell) good computer scientist they've ever had on payroll. Did his thing (Brain in a Box and a bunch of optimisation stuff for years), got bored of CCP, hosed off. Veritas staying at CCP would be one of the dumbest things he could do as a programmer, in the opportunity cost alone of working on code that isn't poo poo. Staying would mean continually obsoleting himself. At some point you have to realize a thing just doesn't have to be your problem.

Reverand maynard posted:Its literally just killing a single frigate rat in my guardian then warping off. A monthly lore thick story line mission that gave out sp would be preferable IMO as the current use feels dumb. It doesn't encourage you to play eve it encourages you to log in an alt, kill a frig then log out. To a person who worships metrics, there's no difference.

ullerrm posted:Ironically, when they took them off the store, they couldn't give them away. They had tons of back stock, to the point that everyone at Eve Vegas one year got an Apoc model free, so that CCP could write them off. I was about to buy a ticket to EVE Vegas that year just because I was in Los Angeles and it was easy enough. The free ship model was the thing that put me over the edge. But then they changed the Golem model and that's what I wanted, to paint the Raven model like a Golem in the Lai Dai paint. Easy enough. So then I didn't go, and I don't want the Raven model anymore.

it looks to me like we're at 2008 levels, can't really accuse me of spinning that due to bias. What I worry for are the newer space games that flat out do the space experience better. I don't see it drawing players away but it will certainly present some tempting alternatives.

Nunes posted:Are there any good resources online that I can do some reading to learn basic principles and ideas for learning to get better at pvp? I primarily want to understand how to start thinking about fitting and how to recognize if I have the right ship/fit for a particular engagement in pvp. I hope this question makes sense. I don't have a lot of successful experience with pvp. I didn't begin to understand modules until a year in, and just filled mids with hardeners and used cruise missiles on PVE battleships because lol 200km range (farther is good, right?) You can pvp in whatever you want, but if you want to win you have to recognize which fights to take. If I recognize a ship by name it's because I've been killed by it several times.
