Eve CM is not working because they have disabled the XML feeds.
people hammering the server for their data every hour, on the hour or more often every min. kinda peeved CCP off.

login to My EVE and click on "MY CHARACTERS" and it will show you there, think you can do that without reactivating accounts!

Ah I see, I never really used the program much anyway, it always seemed to break on me, it was useful for planning out skills manually though. :)
 
I find EVE CM confuses itself sometimes (well, i must be the one confusing it somehow) which brings me back to square one and then i just give up. :D

Eve CM is working.

CCP set up a second server that offers the XML feeds that Eve CM uses. Its been running again for over a month and a half now.

CM is a critical application IMO, Eve just isn't the same without it. It's essential for me for planning out what I'm doing with my two accounts (and I imagine more so for those with more than 2 accounts) over the next month or two. It also means I'm not regularly hammering their website (each webpage is larger than a single XML feed page will ever be) for details about how my character is doing.
Personally I reckon FFE ought to make ECM so that you can't update it more than hourly, no matter what.

I find it easier to snipe them, so the tracking is helped by the range

Well see thats the problem, I couldnt get far enough away to do that. They could still hit me and do loads of damage while I did hardly anything to them!

Domi might be a better bet tbh, just go dual large reps, 3/4 hardeners, cap relay and mids filled with cap recharger II's or good named ones. :o
 
If anyone get's a level 4 mission set called 'in the midst of deadspace, I'd suggest bringing friends. It's like a Level 4 angel ex on lots of steroids, with 3 stages, 6 bs, 8 cruisers and 6 frigs on the first, 2 BS 4 cruisers, 6 frigs on the second, and 10 BS, 4 named BS, 20 cruisers, and about 30 Frigates in the 3rd....

And you've got an hour to finish it....

Ouch, you better stop typing and start shooting :D :p
 
I called in re-enforcements from my corp, a raven and a t'rax, and we got the job done, but well outside the time limit. The loot was vaguely amusing, but nothing worth all that much.

Was an entertaining mission to say the least, but the rewards in Isk and LP's don't reflect the risk and time involved. Once they've balanced this out, it'll be a really nice team mission for corp 'fleet training' as there's no bounties on the rats.

Like I said, Take friends along.
 
Archangelus what ship were you using? Raven?
In some ways i'd like the lvl 4's to stay as they are. lvl4's should be hard and require freinds to help out, since they are the highest lvl missionsy ou can get. *note i've only done 3 lvl4 missions, and non after patch*
 
Ive done a couple of missions since patch, usually with a wingman and they arent too bad, vengence is the only one that is still a pain, damn sentry guns

The loot tables have been vastly improved by the looks of things, some real decent named T1 items. My brother looted two E500 proto energy vamps and a crapload of other items worth 3-10m from each can.

I was using a Megat, my corpmate who came in as re-enfircements was flying a raven, and he was tanking it without much of a problem, but he's been ingame a lot longer than I.

I do like the harder level 4's and they should be hard, I'd just like to see the rewards increased a LOT for balance purposes.
 
Raven tanking *sighs*

Well ont he bright side your LP points isk and usually loot is far better than Lvl 3's.

What was your set up? Shield tank? long range? med range? short range? Combo range?

Yes but if they're going to appear more often they wont be worth as much for long.

I was running..
3 350 rails, 3 250 rails, 2 XR-3200 heavy launchers
Named A/b, painter, webber, 16.5% cap recharger
LAR II, 2 active Kinetic, 1 passive therm, 1 passive EM, 2 1600mm rolled tung plates.

I've switched over to a Domi now, and it seems to be tanking a lot better. The new armor resistance skills help out, but for some reason the domi just seems to take damage better, it's really weird.
5 250mm (or combo 350/250), heavy Nosferatu
a/b, webb, painter, CPR,
LAR II, 2 active 2 passive rat specific hardeners, and a 1600mm plate.
Biggest difference is the drones... with the domi they hit really hard, thanks to the bonus the domi now gets.
