I have 3 simple questions:
- The first time i anchor a POS an online it, Does it rep itself or i have to rep all its shield?
- And, the true purpose of Strontium is to give us time for repping the POS, no?
-How much strontium should i bring the first time?
Its my first time with poses and i dont understand them quite well, even after reading some guides...
Thank you very much |

Eternal Justice wrote:I- And, the true purpose of Strontium is to give us time for repping the POS, no? It allows you to pick a time for the tower to exit reinforced mode, so you can respond at a time of your choosing when you can rep and fight off the attackers who can otherwise destroy the tower.
Eternal Justice wrote:I-How much strontium should i bring the first time? I'd recommend at least 36 hours (maximum is 41 hours). You change the amount before it is reinforced to pick the time when it comes out of reinforcement.
Note that 36 hours = 1 day + 12 hours so it forces a 12 hour time-shift for the attackers.
Many towers are reinforced Friday night so they can be destroyed on Sunday, as most people put in max stront and don't change the amount. |

So when it enters in Reinforce mode it will be avaible to attack 24h after + strontium time no?
Example:
Attack is on friday night so it will be out of reinforce on Saturday night + X hours (41,36,12...etc)
Thanks i think i undertand it now. |

No, it comes out of reinforcement after stront timer ( no extra 24 hours)

No extra time. Tower info page on fuel gives you ammount of strontium consumption. That ammount is per hour. So depending how much strontium bay has, you have time.
CCP added strontium to give tower owner controllable reinforcement timer. It gives you time to organise defence and is fueled by strontium.
With full strontium bay, tower has 41 hours maximum reinforcement timer if its attacked and shooted that low shield that reinformenet mode activates.
Personally my alt corp has just 12 hours worth, just to annoy enemy. but since tower has nothing really valuable, theres very small chances that someone would wardeck my small industry alt corp. [Insert something funny or smart here] |

Organizing a fleet to take down a POS takes a little effort. they usually end up starting the POS bash at prime time for the attacking group. So if you put in enough stront for either 12 or 36 hours it should come out of reinforcement at the most inconvenient time for the attackers. This can be a bit of an issue if their prime time is the same as yours.
Also some players expect this and try to shift attack times as much as possible to reduce this offset. As others have said. If you are online and defending the POS when it is attacked, you can adjust the amount of stront in the tower just before it hits reinforced mode to control exactly when it comes out. |

To help get the shields to 100% more quickly, you may want to pick up a POSprey to help rep the shield. Of course, if you have a real logistics ship, that will do much better.
Extremely low skill fit:
Quote:[Osprey, Beginner POSprey] Beta Reactor Control: Diagnostic System I Beta Reactor Control: Diagnostic System I Empty
Eutectic Capacitor Charge Array Eutectic Capacitor Charge Array Eutectic Capacitor Charge Array Large Ohm Capacitor Reserve
Large S95a Partial Shield Transporter Large S95a Partial Shield Transporter Empty Empty
Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I
Only needs Caldari Cruiser 3, Energy Grid Upgrades 2, Jury Rigging 1 and Shield Emissions 1. If you only have Caldari Cruiser 1, it is not going to be cap stable. This should be cap stable for afk repping the shield. |
