No, of course it is not the miners fault that someone does not honour a bounty. It is their fault if they come completely unprepared for the dangers though. Would a miner get much sympathy for getting owned by belt rats...no? So why should they for pvp pirates.
An incursus fitted with tech II neutrons, a MAPC and a mag stab II might just be able to break a light BS. Get the 3% small hybrid damage implant, that's like an extra level of surgical strike or weapon specialization! Should be able to get one for half a million or so.
An Enyo is going to be doing 33% more damage due to the extra gun (plus rockets if you fit them over defenders...). A Taranis on the other hand can put out some serious damage if you fit it for gank.

spike_uk, it is complex and is notorius for having a steep learning curve. Bit if you stick at it it is more than worth it.
And for those who have never seen it...ChrisB said:/me looks for feeks sig....
You'll see, I don't run from fights, and I remember my drones. I got a bit flustered once and lost a thorax which I really shouldn't have lost - All my drones stayed in the drone bay. It's not happened since
/edit - spike, I don't know how long you tried it for, but if you've only played a few hours then it can seem incredibly daunting. Simple reason - It is. It's a huge learning curve but spend a few days playing around and you'll be amazed at what it's all actually about. We see quite a different side living in deep 0.0 where alliances are formed and broken in the space of a few days. I've said it before and I'll say it again - Eve is absolutely amazing, you really never know what's going to happen next.

yeh, thats a nice hit considering no bonus from the ship, get around 1000 dmg on a 720 wreck on my muninn.
the laughing wasnt at the dmg, more the fact that you dont have a single one against a player only npc
and as for the length of time, yes i misread, but u did also
02/03/04
i missed a year, but u added an extra one
anywho, i see you are ex STK, is Temerlyn still playing at all?
D
//edit, i am going to have to start typing full sentences in complete english at this rate, seem to have to edit all the time to swap *****s for alternative wording (not expletives either)

My big player hits were against people we're now friendly with, that's why I dragged them out of the bio. Plus they weren't quite so big. Nearly, but not quite. I clear my log from time to time as well so who really knows what's the biggest and I normally switch off combat logging in big fights to help reduce lag anyway.
Doh as to the date. Well, we bracketed both sides of the correct one between us and got there in the end.
Ex STK? Pah. I'm very much STK still, and Tem is still playing, quite a lot as it goes.
Right, must carry on with the ship distribution plan.

ChrisB said:I've got to ask the question though..... WHERE WERE THE DRONES?!?!?!
Even heavies against a condor would have it killed before the BS went down.....
/me looks for feeks sig....
tbh in 0.0 or anywhere med drones are a must, before the patch I could use 15 small in my Vexor,
that has got me out of a few tight spots I'll tell you now!
oh and feek, can I nick your sig?
Roduga said:I've just started. Feeling a little lost...

wheres the "fix the stupid amount of lag whenever anyone goes into combat" note? i cant seeee ittttt...
perhaps they should add
"yeh so anyway, tranq might be able to handle a bazillion simultanious connections but no more than 17k can ever play online at the same time else the cluster grinds to miltonkeynes and back"
