I get kicked out from SiSi if I do that. And it takes a long time even if I pod character with 5.0 sec status.

no you do not, you'd have to be reported by the guy you podded

and well i don't think your alt is suddenly going to develop an independent consciousness and report you for podding outside of the designated systems

It will show on logs.

Wow I cannot believe people like Jorma not only know nothing about game mechanics but refuse to listen to people who know what they are doing or test it himself.

As someone who has been popping pods and getting podded for 6 years, you have always been able to pod someone who is an outlaw in high sec space. GCC pods are not valid, only outlaws which are people below -5.0. Won't take more than 10 mins to test this on Sisi. I don't need to test it because I podded some poor afk outlaw pod in high sec 3 days ago.

GCC pods should be valid targets to everyone but I assume that's because it would require effort on CCPs part. Giving exhumers +10k base ehp (or whatever it is) is really, really, REALLY tough work. Phew, I'm getting tired just thinking about it, better take a well deserved vacation after this CCP, that's some complicated in-depth finely tuned balancing there. Congrats.

a catalyst has 4k ehp

figure out the rest yourself v0v

Are you implying I should use an arty boat? Because their tracking woes against something that comes in and shoots.
All anti-gank fittings that I have seen posted had ACs and those don't instashot 4k.

if only we had two cheapass battlecruiser hulls that can be fit to instalock and pop catalysts with high-alpha turrets

if only

Tracking Enhancer II

I tried a 'cane and guess what, the other guy still managed to kill the mack.
Oh sure, I should involve a blueball like you do with remote SEBO, maybe why not an interceptor and whatever.

There's a risk when you are in safe spot and cloaked. People can still find you.

I always fit 2...

Tracking Enhancer II

Tracking Computer II, Tracking Script

What kind of tank you would suggest?

This fit has 22k EHP with current stats on SiSi.

[Hulk, Tank Fit]

Micro Auxiliary Power Core II

Medium F-S9 Regolith Shield Induction
Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
Limited Adaptive Invulnerability Field I

"I can't work out a fitting for a t1 battlecruiser"

Oh show me the fitting able to lock and kill a ganker after he went GCC (half are not -5 status) and before he pops a random mack.

It will show on logs.

Many T1 dessies is not a special snowflake at all.

2-3 of them is what every non rookie ganker use in 0.7 and below. Usually they don't use more as they seem to get bored and scale up to bigger hulls past 5 catalysts.

The "Buy a Skiff" tank.

Nice, Drakes killing supers.

I don't have any negative friends.



Stop lying.

an instacane does not use tracking computers

So if the don't buff the hulks tank we should have no issues with the changes?

I like the idea behind the changes. Each Exhumer should have a role.

Right now, the Hulk with the new, lower tank is about fine. You gotta be ATK to keep it safe.

My problem is with the Mack and Skiff. Each takes too much of the other's role. The Skiff's not viable so long as the Mack is expensive to gank (something like 50-60k EHP available). And if that were fixed, the Mack would'nt be viable so long as the Skiff has a 17k m3 cargo.

Reduce the Mack's tank and Skiff's cargo, and you'll get an honest-to-god choice between the 3.

Hulk for when you're ATK with fleet support.
Mack for when you're ATK with no fleet support.
Skiff for when you cba to be ATK all the time to stay safe.

I have no idea what I'm doing (you're right)!


Can I have a gold star now?

But the real reason it's a special snowflake situation is that there is no reason why you need to be mining in .5 space. Scord is found in 1.0 space too.
