Gwyneth Palpate posted:The thing to understand here is that CCP is sensitive to ISK faucets, not income. They murdered naga multibox ratting deader than disco because it was severely increasing the ISK faucet in the game, since it was so much more efficient than the established krab meta. Granted, it doesn't sound like a big deal if you compare it to what a hel makes today, but at the time it was a stark difference. CCP have literally nerfed every ratting ship/fit I've fully trained into ~2 weeks after completing training. I gave up on FOTM/ years ago. When can I invest Goon Bonds (G00NB00B13Z, real GILT isins literally look like this) and pay 20 bn/yr for a no -effort coupon 1bn/month to fuel my cheap SIG lifestyle?

Just do everything possible to scatter null ratters to the four winds. Why not give marauders the cyno so you have a tanky option? Why not limit cyno broadcast range to ship size/class? So many other things they could have done, instead of buff the hunter/bomber meta even more.

After spells in SV after EG died, I'm more active in this war than I have been in years. I pop in for 2h or so and try to fend off entosis hackers in my Stabber solo. It'll reliably kill most hulls destroyer and below provided they don't get under your guns, and I've killed a Hecate even after it got under my guns thanks to drones and rapid lights. You get a 50m isk bounty for killing a hacker (the cost of the stabber) and if you're in waffe, the 2x reimbursement plus insurance covers the cost of the stabber anyway. I'm having fun roaming, dodging gangs, getting baited and losing my ship. Brave however have resorted to more small gangs as of late than solo hackers. Can't do much about those in my Stabber.

Real talk, it's terrible and and dual 180 + rlml Stabber is better in every way bar EHP. You're paying 8-10x the isk for a so-so EHP buff, on a ship you should be flying like it's made from paper anyway. Plus the Stabber looks so much more engageable; I love scaring the poo poo out of frigs, destroyers, Cynabals and Vagabonds who think I'm an easy kill. But that's all I can kill really.

rocketrobot posted:Would you mind sharing your fit? I used to love flying stabbers. The flyswatter fit was a lot of fun, too. https://zkillboard.com/kill/89834973/ You've ~520 DPS heated on this big frigate with great application. Fight frigs and destroyers via kiting, you really can't kill anything bigger outside a cocky Cynabal/Vagabond pilot. If you're scrambled you're dead, but you will obliterate almost any small hull if it's on its own. Ammo selection is key and combined with heat might get you out of some hairier matchups like a Hecate point blank. Killed two Sabres handy as they had barrage vs my fusion once. A similarly fit Cynabal would have 10k more EHP, 80 more DPS (heated) with worse application, be 100m/s faster, but have way more utility in the form of an added neut + web and extra flight of drones. Costs a good bit more though and I'm cheap as hell. A similarly fit Vagabond (not that you'd fit it that way) has 100 more DPS and isn't even 100m/s faster with T2 poly rigs. You get ~12k more EHP than the Stabber. School Nickname fucked around with this message at 17:09 on Jan 11, 2021 |

SpaceDrake posted:The problem is that Delve is going to be poor for "small gang" stuff because the enemy's entire war plan calls for n+1; they will ALWAYS want to outnumber you, overwhelmingly. loving around is a great way to make them freak out and drop poo poo on you, but for getting ~good fights~ you'll really need to at least get out to Querious and Period Basis, if not cross the great void into the central south and go to Catch or Immensea. Of course there's the risk of PAPI batphoning, but I actually think Delve is amazing for small gang as there are bads literally everywhere running around in a solo Hecate or in a small gang of two to five. There's a camp in 3-D in euro prime you can attempt to bait. BOPE and other groups are also pushing hard on ihubs in frig/cruiser gangs of 10-20 in euro prime time. A half decent shield cruiser comp might drive them off or at least have a fun fight, but nobody really wants to form a non-doctrine fleet that doesn't get pinged out. I think it's just that the corp culture of waffe is quite different to smaller corps and it's a little harder to grab together a few like-minded guys to roam on an ad hoc basis, no pings required. There's a polish corp in GSF that's doing great work in and around YQX with only 5-12 people. I believe Garnoo has over 130 killmarks on his Hecate, more than most supers. I've lost count of the times I died soloing in my Stabber where even one frig ally would have sealed the win. Maybe I can't rustle up a gang because I just don't have any friends...

I shamelessly loot/salvage the field in 1dq1 after a fight and sell on the market for a decent discount. I don't have a noctis for it (yet), but a salvaging Thrasher can just click 'loot all' on the wealth of corm wrecks Horde feeds us. Bottom feeding is fine for me as I sub my accounts and I don't fly pimped out ships, but I do it so much that people get mad enough they're willing to pop wrecks with T2 entosis in them out of spite.

-A quick thought exercise I posted to jabber but got no traction: -You can make one change to a ship's attributes. Increasing/decreasing cpu or pg, adding/removing a low, mid or high slot, changing one stat in shield, armor, cap, base speed, agility, etc. Changing one role bonus (to something reasonable). Which change on which hull impacts EVE the most? Can one change save EVE? I personally vote for the Stabber getting an extra mid slot, but that's clearly bias on my part. I swear I am not CCP Rise who will do the opposite of what Goons say. School Nickname fucked around with this message at 02:42 on Jan 16, 2021 |

My day today, involves Stabber losses. Solo PVP is painful. -Tried to duel a Vedmak in a Stabber. Went as expected as I know poo poo about their tracking capabilities, engagement ranges, etc. -Lose a Typhoon 5 mins later to the same guy's gang who came in from a WH. In transit I knew this was gonna happen but fuckit, insurance on a Secret Santa ship. Welp. -Stabber dead to three destroyers on a gate. If I was quicker on the ball I might have killed one or two, so what. 3m isk cost after SRP + insurance. -loving extravagance on my part, plus the pod. Filamenting in with trig fleets is a nice concept but we had too few people to be honest. We held well for a bit with only two dreks. Maybe 2-4 more Drekavacs would have won that fight. Almost caught a Hel earlier on but what could we have done with 3 dps ships. The funniest part about this fleet was filamenting into Insmother three times in a row. -We formed stabbers later with a small gang. Went the long way round T5ZI through E3, NC. locals ragepinged for a small fleet of 4 Stabbers, 3 destroyers, plus a Scythe... We were camped into an astra for a bit until we decided to flee and then engaged in PR- with what we had left, with the help of one completely unhinged but incredible Initiative Associates pilot (his kb is crazy). Holy poo poo. Turns out the IA pilot manged to solo a vedmak with his one Stabber a while back, but with a different fit. -Finally, we kited 4 stabbers + a scythe against the T5ZI gatecrash of 30 frigs+cruisers and got wrecked, but came out roughly even in the isk war. Could've done better by all accounts but it's a learning exercise tbh.Was a fun day. School Nickname fucked around with this message at 03:23 on Jan 17, 2021 |

Raged posted:I'm kind of over trying to make isk in this game. If you have a few friends and are willing to split the loot, a hyper efficient camp in a popular pipe might actually make you decent isk. Throw the loot in a pos, friendly astra, or even in a secure container in a deep safe and get it out with a blockade runner. Lee Chanka's at it again, killing goons in 3-D now that the Jump Gate network is down. He must have gotten himself a super's worth of loot the last time he camped near goons. In fact the problem with this isk-making method is that it'll only work on goons long term as we never really bother with cloaky camps on that scale. Everyone else big enough to give you consistent kills and thus loot will try and shut you down after a certain amount of dead ships.

Stabbers are so fun when they're in a group of 15-20+, EG fleets are a blast with them. Fast & agile as gently caress, 480 dps cold on paper, w/550 dps heated and good application to boot. There have been times where our fleet warped/jumped into traps and got out with little to no losses we're so quick. Our kills are small potatoes in the grand scheme of things, but it's near impossible for our enemies to win their beloved isk war because the ships are so cheap.
