It is also a spicy time in jspace right now so a lotta people might either be lathered up and ready to fight, or already be busy fighting.

What’s going on in jspace to make it spicy?

To elaborate, those sentient drones that appear in scannable combat sites and their escalations now drop an item that, when combined with other sentient drone drops, can be traded in for a loot box containing isk tokens and blueprints for new tractor beams and tractor units. I suppose it's a reason to run them, but the isk per hour isn't that great and the markets will eventually run out of drone components, so I just bought the new tractor unit instead. It's cool, and one third more tractorious than the old one.

Running around highsec with a chance to find a terrible site for a chance to kill an npc that has a chance to drop a worthless item that you combine with other worthless items to get a loot box that might give you a blueprint for a tractor beam.

This truly is enthralling gameplay.

They’re gonna remove Timezone tanking, discourage holding large swathes of space, nerf ansis and power projection, reverse scarcity, give carriers, supers, and titans a role in combat, bring back passive moon mining, shake up sov, change resource distribution, and add npc null to Dronelands.

Ass, gas, or grass. No one rides for free.
All I want is the ability to clone jump from k space to j space. I'm fine if it's extremely limited and gated behind otherwise useless skills, just lemme get back to the hole without having to spend an hour scanning:bahgawd:

Yeah I don’t think it would be good since it basically removes a huge part of hole control and the etiquette of podding people in jspace. Even with a 1 week timer or something like that it’ll still make a lot of people angry.

Still bad implies that at some point it must have been good, and this hasn't been the case since we lived in Syndicate and I gave you the locations of sleeper caches I couldn't scan down

I mean, I'm not there now on account of not playing, but post groomswarm and pre-brave I did an exploration lap of every system east of Poitot and barely saw another soul. I was also easily able to bring a clownshow nereus back to pick up the loot

wasn't it only an intel bot and not a bot bot? At least that's how I read it

the intel bot that nobody cared about or paid attention to was technically against the rules, AND ALSO iirc he was doing some botting-botting on the side and then there were some goofy jokes about laundering his ill gotten isk or w/e that were taken at face value by said credulous dweeb

yeah it was an intel bot but it was doing poo poo that you could do without botting (like sitting in a station and watching the player list) and he just used a bot to make it easier for himself

Also, and I cannot stress this enough because it is very funny, nobody paid attention to it. Our killboard from that era is a testament to this.
