Yesterday i made a disturbing observation. One War Target in a cloaky Cheetah stayed in a mayor plex and not getting any aggro from NPcs while he run down the button. I tried to chase him out of the plex several times, but anytime i came close to him, he just cloaked.
So my question: Why can a WT stay in a plex and NOT get aggro from his enemy NPCs????
If anybody does what the WT did, the plexing system is seriously broken and there is just no worth trying to defend a system. |

NPC rats won't shoot you if you have decent standings with them. Even if they are the opposing militia faction. |

Because "Working as intended" according to CSM and CCP. Until of course Caldari used it, then gallente CSM member who had used it for years claimed it was exploit and claimed it was bloody murder, etc.

Standings "feature". The NPC commanders are notorious for looking the other way when their friends show up to conquer their space. These are the same commanders who surrender plex after plex without one shot fired.
This is why it is important that our uncorruptable pod pilots join the militias now! Stop this wave of corruption that has swept through the NPC ranks!

We've been trying to work out if this "feature" works for the Navy in enemy high sec and from rumor and first hand observation, I'm nearly certain that it does. Just wondering what sort of faction standing one would require to be pseudo-immune to enemy NPC? 1.0? 2.0? Anyone care to enlighten me can simply send an email if you'd rather not post in thread. Much appreciated.
BTW, kudos to QCats nice to see you lot blasting away at Nulli given that our alliance seems to be not giving a CENSORED. |

Only the ex-PERVS know the true secrets of "Highsec FU" and how to properly remove NPC navy in high-sec, using nothing but piece of string, two pieces of wood, swiss army knife and theme song from MacGuyver

Small oversight on CCP's part. "Working as intended" until they decide it's not and get around to fixing it. Rabble Rabble!! |

lololol
You, sir, are apparently unfamiliar with a nasty little git who was on CSM for too long, who used this exploit for months and months and months before it came to light that it shouldn't work this way.
Lets find that name....

I think she was in pretty much every militia except maybe minmatar? (She got top rank in Amarr militia IIRC, and did a stint as a caldari).
But don't tell damar that. She disagreed with him, so therefore she was gallente. |

The most lol-worthy (bizarro) event I ever witnessed was Damar in some plex (Kehjari?) pointing Ankh's pod. Damar wouldn't outright kill her, and she wouldn't self-destruct (I guess it had something to do with "winning"). My guess was that this was going on for hours, but only Damar or Ankh could say for sure. After entering I got some warning like "Don't even think of interfering with this!" from Damar. |

lol! What militia was ankh in at the time? (e.g. was she caldari and damar didn't want to take the standings hit for the destruction or something?) |

The first time we learned about the standings "feature" was in a major plex in Korasen. She was running it and no NPC was attacking her. We were like... WTF?? You're kidding!
Fast forward four years and hundreds of posts later.... |

Ankh jumped to Caldari for a brief while after CCP told we would get a medal. So didnt get it and promptly left.

It's a broken game mechanic that existed pre-Inferno and now gets relentlessly exploited to farm LP.
CCP presumably know about it but are too busy with shaders, monocles ETC.

I flipped from Minmatar militia to Amarr back at the beginning of June. There are four factions a pilot should keep in mind. My republic and tribal liberation standings were as high as they could be. My 24th crusade and empire standings were likewise as negative as they could be.
Hundreds of plexes later- the 24th and tribal standings move with each plex done. My 24th is at 4.80 and my tribal is hideously negative. Rats only shoot at you based on the republic standing though. It only moves down as the Empire standing moves up and that only seems to happen when I get promotes in the Amarr militia. I prrsobally think they should all move more in tandem but |

Also the OP was using neutral alts or friends that go into plexes.
Especially that Arazu friend of yours that cloaked next to the beacon waiting for victims to scram for you to get easy kills.
How exactly is that better in your hyprocrit' minds? |
