Mass testing event... IIRC there was 430 in local before "GO" and the other team (waiting in the next system) was supposedly 50% bigger than ours.

Getting a bit fedup of the game now tho - twice ran into def. character bugs that are fixed by training the appropriate skills (which seems to overwrite the corrupt data) and not having caught onto the rather obscure (as a new player) dependancy on training learning skills early on I'm now in a position where I can either spend forever training stuff, a couple of months opptimizing my learning skills or probably just as quick/quicker to start a new character but I don't wanna have to spend a couple of months or so getting back to where I am :S

Other things annoying me is like finding out today that a L1/2 shield tank on my myrmidon is over 50% better dps, twice the EHP and 300% longer lasting cap and 40% quicker to align than my L5 active armor tank, despite gal being armor tankers and the myrm having armor rep bonuses... crazy, not to mention the silly cutting of drone bandwidth on it.

Your learning skills aren't that bad, just get them all up to IV, and buy the missing Rank 3 skill! Keep ignoring charisma skills unless you want to train up the associated skills in the future.
 
Yeh agreed with the above, your learning skills aren't too bad Rroff, you just seem to expect skill training to be a lot quicker than it is! :p
Starting a new character won't help - if you just train up your current character for 2-3 weeks you'll get some nice learning skills.
Oh and buy some implants and just avoid being podded! :p

on a side note, my dreadnaught training has started :D

Along with mining and hauling through Empire in a freighter, flying a dread is as boring as EVE gets.

"Siege green."

add 1 unit of stront to a stack of 299 (depending on what skill level you have), activate siege module. Target and shoot.

"Siege red"

make sure you don't have a full stack and deactivate siege module.


Hang on, I made that sound far more fun than it actually is :D

But we didn't get to test it, we'll just have to shoot your myrm up tonight.

Tank even if its ok has a massive downside... namely 18 minute cap recharge time... meaning I'm gonna have to spend even more time training up projectile turrets really and in typical CCP fashion theres no compromise - freeing up a slot or 2 to improve cap dramatically changes the tank from decent to pitiful... no half measures :(

Me and not getting podded isn't gonna happen :S
 
both my accounts have empty training ques :( i was 1 hour to late in wakeing up to add them before the down time. Anyone know when exactly the update will be released?
 
anyone checked to see if it's cheaper to get GTC from another provider now that the pounds dived vs the doller.
