That really depends on the value of the ships the pilot flies, what good is 1 bil bounty on a pilot that only flies 1 mil rifters :) it would take 5000 times to kill him to get it all payed out :) at the 20% rate of isk destroyed estimate.

Seconding what Hans said. I hate dual ASB setups with the fiery passion of a thousand burning suns, but single ASB setups really add a lot of variation to the game, which is always nice. With nerfing capacity across the board and small/medium ASBs having a max capacity of 10, you're absolutely destroying their use. ASBs aren't clearly broken until you fight a dual XLASB Maelstrom or dual MASB Hawk, both of whose tank and damage are completely invulnerable to cap warfare. So don't nerf what isn't broken. Either that or add Navy 25s and 50s.

That being said, the rest of this blog is teh awesomez.

Exactly: hunted more. With a higher percentage payout, he'd switch to a cheaper ship to minimise his losses, be hunted about the same, and end up losing less than before.

I was just pointing out in a fun way that I like his idea and I hope that people will have fun with bounties and kill rights as that is pretty much the goal of our feature

To the guy who's like "ZOMG THEY CAN PERMADEC ALL OF EVE" it's theoretically possible and i dont see a reason it shouldnt be an option for someone who makes 300bil a week (or whatever the massive number would be) and can still field the PVP numbers they'd need to take on everyone in empire. There's some scary people in the universe ;) I encourage someone to give it a try; if it's anything like Burn Jita it should be amazing content for everyone involved.

Salvage drones never loot, they only salvage. Also, there is no difference in the quality of the loot received GÇô salvage drones can salvage the same items as the salvage modules, the only difference being that because of lower chance they are much worse at salvaging difficult wrecks (and are incapable of salvaging the most difficult Sleeper wrecks).

Me: yay, awesome new item that will be extremely useful in WHs, thanks guys!
CCP: oh i'm sorry, it doesnt work in WHs.

great.

Oh my god you can activate MJD and cloak instantly then you will remain cloak for the spool up time AND be cloaked when landing, just tried on bucky.

Base cost for wars remain the same, the per character just scales earlier, faster, and hits the same cap sooner. Why scaling didn't happen at 50 before there really wasnt a good reason for, same thing with a character price cap that only 2 or 3 mega alliances hit. CCP's pretty much using the numbers I suggested, so if you got a problem with it blame me.

Most interested in the Battle Noctis

The war dec fee should only be based on characters actively training a skill. Corps and alliances use alts to bloat the war dec fee to evade a possible war dec. Now this tactic will become more effective.

This how the kill right system you guys came up with will be gamed to regulate it back to be nothing again, well almost:

So I violence some dudes ship and now he has a kill right on me. Side question if he shoots back and I still kill him does that mean he does NOT have kill rights on me like the way it works now? Anyways, so if he is some poor guy that can't cash in the kill rights he has on me he can let others do it for him, cool.

If he sets the price too low to get the kill rights I will simply snatch it with an alt and pop myself in a noob ship. So he has to set the price much higher to keep me from buying it. All I will do is fly ships that are 'not worth buying the kill rights to cash in'. And as long as I'm not hanging out in high sec the whole time, I only have to avoid it for a month. Even in low sec kill rights are pointless because most of the pirates in there who get kill rights on them are already an outlaw, so what is the point?

You really need to remove the expiration date on kill rights to have any real effect on cashing them in. Even have the kill right only expire when enough damage in ISK has been done to match the ISK damage done that generated the kill right in the fist place.

The aggressor now has the option to retract a war that has been made mutual by the defender. This ends the war in 24 hours. The other option here was to give the aggressor a chance to accept or refuse making the war mutual, but we felt the retraction was a cleaner and simpler solution.

Ancillary Shield Boosters GÇô weGÇÖre reducing the capacity by 30%, increasing the capacitor need by 40% and increased the duration of the X-Large ASB to 5 seconds from 4. WeGÇÖve tested several other changes, but feel this is enough at this stage. We want to be cautious in not nerfing them too much, but if further changes are needed we have another batch ready (this would make the ASBs use a small amount of cap even when fueled by a cap booster)....

he can make the kill right available to a specific char/corp/alliance... so it doesn't really mean that you could buy it yourself

At 13% access chance, they should be able to salvage some of the lesser ones, but it'll take a whileGǪ

The Suspect flag means that anyone in the vicinity can now attack the flagged player. Running through the scenarios of what this entails make this less of an issue than at first glance.
* If the kill right is made available to everyone, but at a low price, the targeted player can simply use an alt or a friend to get rid of the kill right. This is then just an extra hoop to jump through for those players frequently causing others to get kill rights on them.
* If the kill right is made available to everyone, but at a high price, then there is much less of a chance of it being activated constantly and thus less of a hassle. This is especially true when considering that players will likely be wary of kill right scams and thus not keen on paying to activate a kill right with a considerable cost.
* If the kill right is made available to a specific entity, then this is little different than being at war GÇô you just need to remember whom to look out for as it is not as clearly shown as for war.

How I see free-for-all public kill rights:

1) get into noobship;

2) use your alt to activate killrights and pop your free ship;

3) enjoy your free kill rights cleanse.

Is that "correct"?

True.

And you thoughts on removing the expiration date and war dec fees only calculating based on characters training a skill?
