The *Official* Eve Online Thread

I'm 2b won for 1b played on blink so they're not getting any more money out of me. I know how to quit while I'm ahead.

Of course I made that 2b with my first couple of hundred mil so they've had another 800ish mil out of me unnecessarily...
 
Just learnt about WH space the hard way...lost my Noctis in there whilst salvaging a nice C2 Sleeper site, just finished the last wreck, warped to the WH and there was a Proteus and Hurricane waiting :( Lost all my loot...

EDIT: Not that much of a loss, stuck what I had from insurance into Blink (about 20Mil) and came out with a new Noctis. Woop...

What skill set would my pilots need to operate in WH space

Hard to say really. You need to be able to scan, covert ops is very important (recon/t3 instead is ok - warping cloaked is the name of the game for scouting)

For running combat sites, it depends on the class of wormhole and which race you are:
If you're caldari you can do it with pretty minimal skills as you can just hop in a drake, passive tank it. You don't need to worry about moving around thanks to missiles so you don't really need any navigation skillpoints spent anywhere. In terms of staying alive and dealing some damage the Drake will work in any class wormhole really - although in high class wormholes you'll need to be in a group with a range of ships for optimum speed and there are better options than a Drake if you have the SP.

On the other hand Gallente struggle. Sleepers love shooting drones, webbing and neuting. So it's tricky to get up close and do damage, drone ships are pointless and an active armour tank will be hard to run in c3s and above.

Minmitar and Amarr both work pretty well, although not as easily as Caldari. The damage projection on lasers and artillery can be very nice. I used to fly a Legion in C3s (occasionally solo) before the neut changes and it worked awesomely. Was quite pimped though :p
 
Sup guys, just thought i'd post since I've been playing EVE for about 4 years :) Is there a public chat set up for you lot?
 
Made little over a bil with the zydrine bubble in a few hours last night :) I'm also betting heavily this change will go though and we'll see zyd back at 2500+ although it might take some time.
 
How much has it shot up to? im still noticing sell orders for sub 800 in some regions

edit: Or not, thats insane the price of it now, im better off going back to lvl 4's to get more high ends

I'll have T2 torps for my bomber next week then I'm gonna take a little late night trip to see the Eve Gate thingy and shoot at randoms along the way.
 
Ran some incursions yesterday in my Raven, now sitting on 380 Mil. Going to get full Caldari Navy gear (Cruise launchers, missiles, BCS and Invulns) for my CNR when I have the ISK. It is only used for Incursions...

Toying with the idea of investing into this fit...

620 dps + 4330 volley (not got the best skills in the world)

I know it will cost a small fortune, but it looks good, but I could be wrong...

Why do you need that much shiny on an incursion Raven? It should work fine with T2 tank mods, and T2 weapons are almost always better than faction unless fitting is tight. Why not spend the isk on a better incursion ship (Maelstrom, Mach, Nightmare)? I'm with Horse Pop, I'd be eyeing up suicide ganks for that sort of fit, not cos of module drop but because it's needlessly shiny.

Edit: You know about stacking penalties too I assume? That 4th faction BCU will be adding about 3 dps over a T2 one by that point. Unless you're flying a cap or super gank BS (shield vindi etc) it's not worth fitting more than one faction dmg mod.

The CN missile launchers are worth it over T2 if you are lobbing faction missiles about the place, they hold more and have a higher ROF if I remember correctly

If i remember correctly its best to stick to arbies to keep the fitting down on a bomber. The cookie cutter solo bomber setup i used to use back in wh space / 0.0 is.

[Hound, New Setup 1]
Ballistic Control System II
Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Nanofiber Internal Structure II

1MN MicroWarpdrive II
Warp Disruptor II
Parallel Weapon Navigation Transmitter

Bomb Launcher I, Electron Bomb
'Arbalest' Siege Missile Launcher, Caldari Navy Bane Torpedo
'Arbalest' Siege Missile Launcher, Caldari Navy Bane Torpedo
'Arbalest' Siege Missile Launcher, Caldari Navy Bane Torpedo
Covert Ops Cloaking Device II

Small Bay Loading Accelerator I
Small Polycarbon Engine Housing I

Works wonders can also be fitted to the amarrian bomber but caldari and nemisis are a no go. If i remember correctly you want to use the opposite bomb to your torp damage type to do max damage. Although having the bomb bit is useless if roaming in low sec since you can't use it.

Choosing an off-racial bomb loses out on that tasty racial bonus, always use torps and bombs to match your hull type, unless in a bombing fleet in which case you need to bring the bomb type specified by your FC, ideally with the right hull to match it. Best to stick with either a bomb setup (fit meta torp launchers but your dps will be gimped) or go pure torps with 2x BCU for some decent DPS, and T2 launchers cos you get more damage out of them. A microwarpdrive will probably get you killed due to sig bloom. Painters on bombers are overrated imo cos you get a bonus on the hull to explosion velocity.

The fit I use (Morel Nova's fit originally):

[Hound, Korenchkin's Hound]
Co-Processor II
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II

Medium Azeotropic Ward Salubrity I
Experimental 1MN Afterburner I
J5 Prototype Warp Disruptor I

Covert Ops Cloaking Device II

Siege Missile Launcher II,Caldari Navy Nova Torpedo

Small Ancillary Current Router I
