The problem with offgrid boosting in general is power creep.
People keep arguing how it helps them soloing gatecamps and fighting superior numbers, but will people turn their offgrid alts off as soon as they're not fighting superior ships and numbers? I guess not.
Eventually, having a booster alt will divide characters interested in solo and small gang pvp in those having one and those not having one, making offgrid boosting alts a quasi-prerequisite to do either, since everyone will assume a solo pilot or small gang has one and properly blob them as a consequence.
Whilst it helps solo/small gang in the short run at the moment, it raises the entry barrier for successful solo and small gang pvp and thus, hurts that segment of the game in the long run. |

While that is a semi-valid point,
It simply isn't worth the effort to drag a booster alt with you everywhere you go, for every single 1v1 and whatnot.
I wouldn't consider it an effort "to drag them around". On the contrary - I think they're quite useful as a cov ops scout with increased survivability compared to a cov ops frig due to more EHP and an interdiction nullifier.
Quote:A booster alt isn't like an implant that requires no effort to use, every time you jump a gate.. you have to jump twice. If you want to boost you need a make a SS in a system before you do so.. Unless you are OK with boosting on a planet in your half-a-billion 10k ehp ship. The SS deal is a pain if you decide to roam.
Either I already have a safespot in a system i roam in or I want to make at least a couple on the run before I even jump the cavalry into the system.
A cloaked interdiction nullified T3 is perfect for that. It's not an "effort", it's something I'd even use over the cov ops frigs I used to use before the introduction of T3s if I couldn't fit gang links on it.

OP hardly ever did any pvp outside highsec, so his claims aren't surprising - especially the ones where he claims to solo-counter nullsec blobs... |

I have atleast 150 0.0 or lowsec kills out of 273. Just because I don't pvp much doesn't mean I don't read up on the topic or know a thing or two. Better than your 30 man blob kills that hardly even count as PvP. Anybody can sit in a big fleet and F1 targets then rack up thousands of kills. KM whoring doesn't make you good.
It doesn't matter. This is a grunt alt that wasn't subbed for the best part of the last 3 years. However, you are a highsec pubbie claiming to counter nullsec blobs whilst screwing over RvB newbs with a little help from your OG booster.
Pathetic. |

You're a paranoid nutjob.

The fact you're even watchig irrelevant stuff like that and draw conclusions from it is proof you're a paranoid nutjob.
Here - have a like - I wasn't even aware there was such a function on the forums...

Hes paranoid? You think anybody that disagrees with your badposts must be an alt. Hes a nutjob? You feel the need to upvote your own posts.... FOUR TIMES.  I wish I could dislike every post you made. But I feel like your army of like-bots would put an end to that plan 
Feel free to dislike every post I made.
don't give a **** about
I pointed out theat you're a failure at eve baiting RvB nuns using the help of your offgeid boosters, which explains your totally clueless posts about offgrid boosting.
You and "ensign" get mad about it, accusing me of using bots for a functionality on the forums I don't even know and I don't give a **** about.
So, I apologize - you're "both" paranoid nutjobs...
Fakeedit: Yay - I have 44 likes those bots work
Way to go, kids... |
