Proof of Concept Video
So we have unprobable ships, that can do missions and plexes in low-sec with less worry. You can insta-warp off most stations (not all), but here is something that just occured to me today:
Bookmarks for frequently used gates:
How To: 1. Open up your Tactical Overview 2. Click on the gate. 3. Line up your ship so your distance numbers and the line "line up". 4. Look at the stargate, and adjust your height 5. Microwarp Drive 500km off the gate, Be sure billboard is on your left. 6. Drop a Bookmark
Next time you use the gate, warp to your bookmark instead of the next gate, your bookmark is off-grid so if your unprobable, your untouchable =)
Hopefully this means 6.1% of our mission ships won't end up on killmails this year =)

Cool observation bro.
6.1% is actually useful and I'll test it and use it myself, thanks!

Wow, nice info.
So according to your investigations, CCP has made it so that ships warping to a very small bookmarked point in space will align and go into warp faster than compared to warping to a large fixed object showing on the overview.
Makes sense though. CCP probably set that up just to incite more PvP or placate PvP's chance at getting ship kills. When a player is in trouble and in a panic, most will think it's faster to click "warp to" to Stations, Planets, etc. which are showing on the overview when actually it takes longer for warp than going through the pull down menu from right-clicking in space and selecting a private bookmark spot.

Crossposting is bad for you
Also, as mentioned, your observations fall too far within the margin of error and contradict known EVE-physics. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

You need to test this with an unskilled providence or something.
And that, in a nutshell, is my sig.
