Well not only did they hit rorquals, they also nerfed the drones they use AND the respawn rate of mining anomalies to lower the amount of mining going on in Delve. In the upcoming patch they're looking at nerfing the anoms/belts again by reducing the size of the rocks by as much as 50%.

I'd say the minimum to run burners and not totally waste your time is a min of 3 accounts. Assuming you aren't self loathing you'll only double dip each for an average of ~12 missions per 4 hour decline period. 12 missions is about ~830m at the time of posting.

E: Team Burners are ~140 seconds on average to clear, Agents are ~90 seconds.

Are those alpha or omega accounts?

So CCP decided to lock alphas out of L4 missions due to botters. You have to be omega.

However due to gurista LP being silly valuable, you make the ~1.5b back in roughly 24 self-run missions, if you contract them out via the lazy method it takes 40 missions per alt to plex. Couple this with the fact that your pullers need ~600k SP for social skills, you can turn them into reaction or SP farm alts and negate the account upkeep almost 100%

FCs mostly choose the positioning of the fleet. One of their backseaters will handle target calling, another one will be yelling at stragglers.

GSF/The Imperium has the skirmish commander system to promote random mouthbreathers into potential FCs, after you spend a while running trashcan frigate/jackdaw fleets you'll be given real responsibility.

There is an argument that if you lived under the largess of the space state, you should also eat crow with the state? I could cite examples of having real painful moments in eve history where Mittens gave away hundreds of man hours of effort to a drinking buddy, but life went on.

I for one find it very strange how passionate some folks are about this. Not even on a "gently caress TEST and everything they touch" level, but on a "I loving hate the TTT so much it should burn with all it's market traders inside " level.

meh. im probably just angry and confused.

i spent a billion on a BPO to make tornado hulls only to be told "thanks no thanks" for ~reasons~, spent a few billion in giving away ships and on jump fuel. literally lining up everything i have and selling off half my assets to buy a supercap just to help delta move poo poo, and i just get told not to do things and i feel like im bashing my head against a wall.

If you have a bpo for tornados (My condolences on that), and build them at input buy values, you'd be able to move them in w6v just fine, as the folks selling them are doing it around 160m. It's roughly 80m to build a hull, then without t2 guns the rest of the fit is maybe 20-30m? You probably wont be able to recover the investment off delta alone.

Dont buy a supercap as a suitcase either. What?

Baculus posted:

being told for a month to not fly a ship i want to fly or being scolded for losing ships is very much not why i came out here. if i want to lose a dictor trying to keep a brave cap bubbled thats between me, my wallet, and atrum if i choose to involve him. but now transitioning to blingy ships in gatecamps is okay... idk im trying to hit the goal so hard and i feel like i cant and i dont really know why. maybe im just too dumb for this stuff.

Yo if you're gonna do the "people are harshing on my game" thing at least have examples.

Does this marauder buff mean anything? +50% DPS while bastioned does quite alot. Almost makes me want to buy a marauder and go back to running level 4s, but as it stands there are many groups who's whole purpose is to gank mission runners in highsec, so that leaves low/null as safer than highsec for mission running at times.

I mean if the math somehow doesnt drive you off L4 missions, I dont know what will, it wont be huge for pvp at scale since bastion makes you a huge target to any capital ship gun.

Considering most of the jammers are theirs, they would probably have caps. You still have to deal with how much damage you're going to take from hacfleets primarying the 2b/each battleships off the field though.

I have this buck wild idea why don’t y’all flex your director muscles on a fight actually worth the effort and kick Xenuria out, last I checked he was soliciting a eve rule34 weirdo to make his eve person nude so he can jack off to it.

Xenuria doesnt contribute things to the group, so he wont get kicked. That's how it works when you let tiny peepees get little power sinecures

Not getting in the way is understandable, it's this idea that we dont have translators for all these rando corps that could, very easily, get a translation of a policy made. We have the talent for it, there's very few excuses to not follow procedure in tyool2021.

GSF has always gone out of it's way to eject thingdoers that rock the boat too hard for the bot-adjacents who just rat and say cringe poo poo like "F2" and "I love SNS"

They still have to know that the policy exists. This is hard when you don't speak the same language as most of the people in the alliance. This has nothing to do with whether translations of policy exist or if auto-translate can do a good enough job to get the message across.

I maintain that Tuzy can do things better


You mean like make an altcorp specifically to get poo poo mailed there so he can monitor it with the phone app? gently caress that was hard.

Sinclair is a way shittier lead than The Box but I'd say it's no more awkward than the first 69 seasons of TNG.

Yeah krabhauses dont generally get alliance level protection unless you can easily facilitate their coming/going. When we'd get hit by BL or PH up in venal we'd hire pathfinders to get a WH nearby and then get up with skirmish command.

Then we'd have to make bookmarks, a grid of them per structure, and try to provide some sorta help beyond just a gunner, like an ECM wing or something

At best you'd slap a target painter in and use titanium sabot, artillery are not great at hitting things smaller than themselves without lots of webs and/or good transversal and/or high sig radius
