it's actually quite the opposite

fozziesov things are harder to capture when the ADM (Activity Defense Multiplier) is higher

ihubs are what allow ADMs to accumulate in the first place, and blowing one up drops the ADM to the minimum

stations on the other hand are necessarily in nullsec, and thus terrible places to stage from, letting hostiles dock in them is nbd, their funeral

ah, i didn't realize adms were tied to the the ihub

There's a question inside my question. I haven't been plugged into politics/goons/whatever in this game for years. I'm sitting here eating popcorn on the sidelines (lol never logging in again) and a guy who wrote some fun updates and made some funny videos I thought had burnt out and retired from Eve is now posting about shooting goons.

My question is: what happened there?

Apoc, sadly. The optimal range and tracking bonuses are just too good, compared to the resist bonus on the Abaddon. After all, if you can't hit back, then more tank just means you die slower.

E: ^^^ that too. The Abaddon has abysmal cap regen, and will cap itself out just by firing its guns. It unironically benefits from an Elutriation rig; possibly, the only hull in the game that does.

It's a pity, because I loving love the hull's visual design.

I unironically made an arty abaddon fit a month or so ago and posted it in illum, mostly to make a point that the Tempest did it better. Atrum wouldn't stop laughing and demanded that all of illum had to do a shot. :(

thats surprising considering how lovely the tempest is. i tried making a fit for grindr fleet before the official fit came out and its literally impossible to fit 1400's and any tank at all

edit: ^^ yeah that ping was pretty surprising. :smith: lol at using reddit to find out who the spy was tho

I don't understand the IP address capturing bit and how it works. Can someone explain it to me? I'm bad with computers.

basically:

- A link to a file on a gsf server is sent to the reddit account
- Reddit account owner clicks on it and their IP address is logged on the server
- Counterintel dudes compare the IP address logged on the bait file access with known ip addresses matching director accounts
- It matches up with Lemba's account's IP, meaning that he's the owner of the reddit account (and by extension, the spy)

It's proabably not that good of a solution of your target is a student since his address could be a university/college ones which would mean hundreds of account could log from the same one.

well obviously you have to use common sense. you'll probably have only a couple accounts coming from the same campus and from there you can deduce which account is most likely based on what access they have etc. like in this specific case they were looking for a director level account, so if they had multiple accounts coming from the same ip, they could narrow it down director level accounts and then use social engineering or other info they have to go from there

counter-intel is pretty cool but good LORD i'd never do it for a video game

I guess this was what I don't understand. Does each modem get a unique public ip? Or is it up to the provider, so some customers might get a single public ip per block/zip code/etc?

If every modem had one it seems like it would be trivial to Remote Desktop to home computers or run a server on lovely mass market home internet, which I didn't realize was possible.

depends on the provider but generally you get one ip per modem. however its usually dynamic so for servers etc you need to request a static ip

im not really a net/it dude tho so i don't know that much in depth

i don't really mind dailies even though they're ~wow incarnate~. just holy poo poo don't make them sp rewards what in the gently caress.

and make them interesting, because "kill one npc" is not great. it should be something that pushes people out of their comfort zone or gets them to try something new. maybe "enter a wormhole" or "do exploration" or "engage in pvp"

Since I always seem to have more questions than answers...

Damnation vs Absolution?
Claymore vs Sleipnir?

How useful are they? Is one or the other used more?
Edit: I guess that aside from their links I don't understand their role in a fleet. The trailer where the Damnation goes chasing a support fleet and gets blasted has me confused as to if they are a support ship or damage ship.

ok so command ships have two roles: boosting and dps/mainline ships

for boosting there's only two options, Damnation for armor fleets and Vulture for shield fleets

for dps most groups run sleipnir fleets, though pl also runs astarte fleets. lowsec guys run (ran?) absolution fleets as well

for solo poo poo, its pretty much sleipnir only
