Must have been some mechanics changes to it, I warped in started to look around and navy ships locked and killed my stinkin ship, just in case you think about going just wanted to let you know cause I never seen a patch note on it but I wasn't looking either.
BTW, I have excellent standing with Caldari and navy too. |

You must have terrible standings with the Caldari. Malcanis for CSM 8 Phrases like "you can't nerf / buff X EVE is a Sandbox" have the same amount of meaning as "If this is a sack of potatoes then you can not carrot." - Alara IonStorm |

True enough but if enough battleships and large enough fleet however I can't say with any authority cause I've never done any fleet battles to see the process. |

I remember back when I started playing that the Caldari Titan in Luminare was a "big deal" the Gallente militia kept tying to kill it. They always failed due to the massive rat escalations. Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

Resistance and hitpoint figures for the LEVIATHAN (you spelled it wrong) are available with a quick google search. It is impossible to kill, short of having a fleet with dps well into the millions, and even then, not sure you'd take it down before DT (and it's shields fully recharged) |

Well, if a problem can't be solved with violence, try more violence. There's nothing a million chinese guys can't do cheaper. |

First shooting an NPC static object is no way going to get you ready for a NullSec fleet, joining a NullSec alliance, getting into a ship and on coms will teach you how to fly in a NullSec fleet (really, it's not hard if you have a brain, align, warp, jump, lock x, shoot x, repeat)
Second the death of the Titan would be a HUGE event in the EVE lore, there is a thread about this in live events already. "Don't count on others for help. In the end each of us is in this alone. The survivors are those who know how to look out for themselves." |

You're absolutely 110% percent, except it would fimilarize you with fleet lingo and get you use to all kinds chaos, think of it this way, why does the military train with things that pop, yelling, people mocked in injury, just a training tool to get them use to the sights and sounds that's all I ment. |

This can all be done without shooting the Titan. Making the case the Titan should be made shootable to train PVP pilots is not a valid one, it's just one to try and make "I want to kill a Titan without fighting a real Titan" sound more viable. (or that's how it's coming off)
If the Titan was made killable then it's going to die, the thing is EVERYONE is going to want to shoot it because it's cool and not many people are going to be there defending it and the Caldari State's control of Caldari Prime. There is also the issue I bought up in the Live Events thread about it which is all of those who would want to defend it (who will already be out numbered by people who don't care for lore or events but just want to shoot a Titan) will most often be Caldari roleplayers or militia members who normally have bad Gallente standings or are locked in FW and will have to deal with NPC Navy forces so they can't really sit and repair the Titan.
If CCP (Falcon) ever makes it a killable ship then honestly I would rather see them remove the Static one and have a CCP actor flying the Titan, give it a full support fleet and the chance to jump out as well. Also if you're not aware of the lore behind the Titan it's there as a deterrent for the Gallente to recapture Caldari Prime, and AFAIK under orders to bombard every Gallente city on the planet if the attack was attempted.

Possibly, but eve uni doesn't accept just anybody, say in my case most of my time in eve has been solo, so I've become used to my own way of doing things plus some of my standings wouldn't allow me to join eve uni. |

Right, changes would have to be made to NPC but is that so bad to have a mock battle with NPC's, I'm aware of the lore behind the Titan just saying it could be a viable addition to the eve universe. |

Back then it was possible (to kill, dev acknowledged that). Problem is every time you try, some jokers show up and start repping it. Hey, I do have better things to do. Hi, I'm CCP Arrow, I screwed up the.. ummm... |

Use to? They're still trying. Last time I was in the militia, they tried to drag me along. There are players now that'll head out there in tanked BSs and farm the site for tags. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |
