Remove implant loses from pod kills. I hate to clone jump in a low implant clone just to transport some goods or have a peek at low sec to fool around. I am sure there are many players who would like to enter low sec for a few hours, at lower risks, without the inconvenience to change clones. It would also encourage those who don't have a clone too.
I don't mind losing my ship, I always take what I can afford to lose and usually its just an impulse or spur of the moment thing, and not something I plan a whole day to do. |

This. When you know you're going to pop, simply change your overview to celestials, pick a random one, and start spamming the warp button. On the death of your ship, your pod will nearly instawarp. They will have to have something that can instalock your pod piloted by someone who is paying very close attention in order to catch you. |

always find it funny when someone has a legimate suggestion to get more highseccers into low/null they always get hammered by the same nullbears who dont want any change. But at the same time are whining they arent enough highseccers leaving for low/null.

Dear CCP,
The people in Low actually don't want more people in Low unless those people are hindered by the game in ways that makes them easily exploitable. The people of Low only want more easy ganks to pad their killboards. They do not actually want more people to fight. They want more people to kill. In order to improve the population of Low you must get rid of these people who are interested in only easy high profit/low risk kills. I have no idea how to do this. Maybe by increasing the risk that Pirates must experience in order to set a trap on a gate or a station?
Nah, that wouldn't work.
Moral of the story? Low is only broken because of the asshats that have populated it.
Toodles!

Same goes for you as the guy above .. it is not because people find the idea bad that they are low-wsec or null-sec habitants.
You are not forced to plug in implants on all your clones , it is your own choice to do so.With that choice comes consequence.

Why is that our problem then? If you insist on wearing a full set of +5s but can't afford to lose them, why do the game mechanics need to be changed?

Do us all a favour and remove your head from your rectum before you post again, most lowsec corps would glady trade ganks for decent fights any day of the week. As for myself I would welcome an influx of people into lowsec with open arms as long as they live under the same rules and restrictions as we do. Pirates - The Invisible Fist of Darwin

Don't look at me. I only go into low in my Jump Freighter or my cloaky Legion with full slave implants. I'm hardly afraid of getting blown up. I lived in Low for awhile. It was fun until "omg I pwnz nubs in l33t PvP" scrubs started trying to gank me 10 to 1 and running as soon as another person from my corp showed up. Then it became tedious.

You can. It is nigh impossible to get caught in a pod. At best you can get caught by mod or UI lag on your part. Meaning if you loose one it is nearly always plain bad luck. So once in a while you lose a pod, big deal. It is part of the game. I personally have cheap pods ( 100-150m orso) but plenty fly with high grades here in lowsec.

you clone jump, therefore you simply shift the risk from expensive implants to being unable to clone jump for the next 24 hours. to you, losing the ability to clone jump for 24hrs is less of a risk.
there's still a consequence, you're just changing what it is. what you're asking for is a removal of this consequence. "100k for notifications of stupidity, i love this bounty system." |

You make a choice to get maxed out skill point gain and can choose to risk it in combat. Personally, I use +4s and the genolution pair of implants in every set of my clones except one right now. And that one is empty because Im saving up for a full virtue implant set =P
Dont undock or plug in what you cant afford or are willing to lose. And if you think you're safe in high sec with your +5 clone, youre terriblely wrong because some people WILL pop you even in high sec.
Id do it too just for your dumbass post, OP. |

I just find it funny that one of the primary reasons I choose to fly in lowsec over other parts of space is the variety of having several pirate / expensive implant sets (slaves, halos, talismans, triage...) and the play-styles they afford.

As I moved to lowsec about 2 months ago I can hopefully give you some advice.
- As your POD nearly instantly gets into warp, your implants are nearly safe. It can happen, but it's unlikely. (Smartbombers and Fastlockers are a possible threat to your clone.) - Make use of the tools EVE provides (D-Scan, local, Contact-List) and the tools EVE does not provide (killboards like eve-kill). - Presume, that the ship you fly into lowsec WILL be destroyed. It might happen, that you make it into highsec again with it. But better excpect a negative outcome and be surprised by a positive one. - Have friends at your side! Be it a fleet of like 5-10 fellow pilots or join a corp that operates from lowsec. - Learn to read and learn about the area of your operation. People tend to settle and therefore you will see some names, corps and/or alliances more often than others. - Incursions might bring activity in the respective constellation to a minimum level. - Engagements are never fair. Either you are overrun by some entity that is just mightier than you or you overpower someone. - If you had at least some fun in a fight (even if you lost a ship), give a "gf" (good fight) in local. That tells your opponent, that you are not whining over the loss of your ship and might credit your name as someone whos eager to learn something and is about to come back soon. - If you like to mine in lowsec, bring friends that protect you! 1 miner needs like 2 or 3 protectors. - The more expensive your ship is, the likelier it will be hunted, the likelier it will be destroyed. Use T1-Frigs to start with. (Sidestory: I tackled a BS with a T1-Frig and laied the path to killing it with my fellow pilots.) - If you plan to kick some buckets down the roads, use a clone without or with cheap implants. Learning is not only a thing thats only done via skills. RL-Learning how to play in lowsec is another part of it. - It is fun to be there.

I don't mind losing my ship, I always take what I can afford to lose and usually its just an impulse or spur of the moment thing, and not something I plan a whole day to do.
Translation: I don't want to sacrifice anything to gain something.
Besides, why would you not just take whatever clone with whatever implants into low se?. Its not like you're gonna lose a pod in low sec, there are not bubbles there, just spam warp to something when you ship gets to hull and your pod will warp.
I pvp in low sec with +5s in and never lost a pod. |

If you lose a pod in high- or low-sec, you're either AFK or a complete idiot. I'd let you slide with the "extreme lag" explanation once, but if it became an ongoing thing I'd wonder why you even try playing games online. Malcanis for CSM8 |

It is super hard to get podded in low sec. You have to not be paying attention for it to happen. You spam Warp as your pod gets into structure and you will instawarp to the selected object on ship destruction. Hell, I've only been podded once in NULL and that was because of a Sabre and I go there purely for PVP (And I've been visiting Null for 9 months or so). Oh. I actually don't use a JC either and I run with implants. Stop crying. It isn't that bad. If I can do it in Null, you can definitely do it in Low.
Lowsec isn't that scary. It's full of FW, pirates, and explorers mostly. FW will give you fair fights if that's what you are looking for, pirates run for the hills as soon as PVP pilots start engaging them, and explorers just want to be left alone.
I just recently returned to lowsec and the piracy mentally is disgusting. What happened to the honor? Ransom pilots and kill them anyway. Get in a fight with a PVP pilot and run away. Yuck. Piracy sure has changed since the years I was one. I guess I'm better off staying in Null and picking on TEST & friends and their gigantic bubble camps. vOv |

This is high sec folks imagination run wild. where are these magical "nullbears" who are trying to get you out of high sec?
All folks like me are saying "don't change the game because you can't figure out how to play, change yourself and move forward". The OP can't even figure out how to keep from getting podded in low sec where there are not warp disruption bubbles but rather than figure it out he wants the GAME to change....

Actually, I have made the argument that making pods indestructible but useless is WORSE than being destructible, and that changing things such that any SHIP loss causes damage/loss to implants, no matter who destroyed it.
No more "podded home", no more jumping out of the clone vat to a rack of 20 waiting new ships (hence no more FPS style "respawn point") .
But everybody gets to enjoy RISK across the board, from high sec to null.
"but you gotta get the pod for intel!" scream the KB addicts.
Well a pod that can only see gates and stations on the overview and is blind to local cannot provide intel.
It's also noob friendly. No implants or cheapies, little cost.
It's big blob unfriendly: lose a ship 40 jumps from home, you gotta go home to get one. Also, the end of "stupid ship loss", no more tossing metal in a grinder with crap tactics and less tolerance for moron FCs.
It's rich carebear and veteran unfriendly. Get lazy in a lvl4/5 and lose a ship, lose some implants that cost hundreds of millions too.
It would also reduce one of the huge issues with getting out of highsec. People are not totally risk averse, they are averse to the inevitability of losing everything.
Of course, nothing will change. KB addicts would rage, carebears who never leave highsec with their crystal sets would rage, goons would rage because that would be a change and establishments (like RL corporatists) hate change, and certainly those whose very ePeen relies on being leet over some arbitrary claim of consequence would rage too.
Rage rage rage while frankly, there is still way more to rage about in RL. A bonfire of neckbeardedness. |

OP does speak truth somewhat.
I wouldn't go into low sec without a jump clone.
Truth be told that despite the align and warp to body trick, that there are people who do fly in these fleets that have ships with very fast lock times and do understand how to turn on their point before they start locking and can catch a pod or two.
I think jump clones are the best solution but in order for new players to get involved they should reduce the standings requirement of installing a jump clone somewhere. "Entitlement" is a euphemism for "I hate the way you play and it makes me cry like a baby" |

No offence, but anyone who knows what they're doing in low doesn't lose pods. It is very very easy indeed to get your pod out after you ship is destroyed. So long as your spamming the warp button before your ship explodes, your warp will warp from the wreckage practically instantaneously. Unless you a experience a rather large lag spike, it is impossible for anything to target you before you are gone.

There is, in fact, a one second delay between the lock completing and the module activating, thanks to the way EVE pings the servers. I know this because I have let more than one ship escape by doing exactly what you are suggesting. |

*lol*
This thread is so full of ignorance, it's only worth posting in it *once*.
You might not be the usual troll and seriously believe your suggestion makes sense ...
... and it does in it's own way, but ignores lots of details ...
... but it would mean that you're not losing something that gets destroyed, when you *should* lose it when it gets destroyed, because it makes no natural sense that you shouldn't. Something that gets destroyed is *gone*. Your pod dies, thus your implants go poof.
Your idea of removing loss is common, but flawed.
Those who want to use expensive implants, those won't go to lowsec either way. Besides, there's something more to this.
If they can afford expensive implants, they at least - at one time - had enough money to buy them. That also means that they have ways to make that amount *again* !
Now, if you're talking about those people who ... ... can't/don't want to afford to replace their loss ... ... then why would they *want* to dive into lowsec in the first place ?
They could lose their ships, even before they could lose their implants.
Reducing loss does not help in any way or form, because as long as there's the general danger of loss ... (or lack of sufficient protection projecting a sense of security) ... these people will avoid said loss.
Why do you think anything would change at all ? Inappropriate signature removed. Spitfire |

The rewards are no where close to risk +5 implants. Anyways if its so easy to get away, what difference would it make to the podders, if i get to keep my implants. Something fishy going on, I see pods kills in low sec all the time on the eve map.

Bad player and casual lowsec resident here. OP's suggestion of reversing a fundamental principle of EVE is not the way.
- I've been both unfortunate (lag) and foolish (pilot error) enough to be podded in lowsec. I observed EVE's golden rule and took my lumps. It ain't hard.
- Nothing wrong with the jumpclone mechanic. Keeping clones in various lowsec systems is a viable means for soloists to avoid station camps. It is only incovenient to swap clones if you keep unlike 'lesser' implants in some clones to mitigate your risk. The 'inconvenience' of slower training time is a price paid for reduced monetary risk.
- No CONCORD, no bubbles; lowsec is its own reward.
The way to get more pilots into lowsec is for players to relax their sphincters about space pixels and enjoy the thrill of engagement against other players. As someone who can only play a few hours per week, lowsec provides me with quality fights, potentially winnable and with no bullshit. I had a great time during each loss on my ****** January killboard.

if it's so easy to get away, the difference to the podders is that they're deprived of a nice killmail when you **** up. you also don't get punished for ******* up, and you should be.
make an alt and take a rookie frig if you "just want to see what's there"
if the risk isn't worth it, jump to a different clone or don't go. stop asking the game to be made easier for you because you're risk averse or scared. "100k for notifications of stupidity, i love this bounty system." |

With my limited experience at the moment I say the best way for anyone to go into Low-Sec and be successful is to have a group and do it. Or, just run the gate-camp and get away from the high-low entry system. It seems the further you get from that gate, the less likely you are to run into anyone.
Low-sec seems to be controlled by gate campers and that is it. No industry flowing, no real large groups except in a few areas. High sec people are just plain scared stiff of even thinking about going into low-sec and refuse to even try. I've been out in low/null since week 2 of playing and finding it to be a pretty simple process of just watching your surroundings moreso then in High. Low is pretty much 0.5 space, except instead of being cautious about everyone around, you smply do not want anyone around you lol.
Which is very odd to me. Low-Sec is much more profitable then High - Sec and I am just astounded that just because you CAN destroy someone, that is all anyone ever does. Astounds me. Just imagine low - sec with industrial ships, miners, explorers, etc. being within the systems because you don't have every single inhabitant of low-sec wanting to do nothing more then kill anyone around. It would be high-sec on steroids with more defensive Corps providing fleet protection. Would be awesome.
But nope, low-sec is nothing but the entry system being gate camped, and it being a pure dead-zone the rest of the way through.
How to beat that and go into low-sec? Get 10 guys together, destroy the gate camp, go into high - sec local and let people know the way into low is open and free of gate campers, let them through and let them play the f'in game! |

SIGh , BUT WHY DO YOU NEED +5 IMPLANTS ALL THE TIME ?
Appearantly getting through that thick skull takes caps. Keep one clone with +2 or +3 , does not cost much and you can do in lowsec as you please.What difference does it make timewise if you are gonna be playing eve for a long time?And if you are not gonna play for a long time then it would make even less a role if you had them plugged in or not.
What is so hard about understanding the risk is what YOU make of it.You HAVE the option to create more clones , yoou HAVE the option to keep 1 clone without implants or with cheap implants as such the PROBLEM is being made by you not by low-sec or it's inhabitants.

I always suspected that those expressing the sentiment that we need more people in lowsec simply have trouble with the social aspect of EvE, somehow not ending up in the right player corporation and / or not being able to deter or annihilate opposing forces on their turf. What I don't get is people's connection with lowsec and pod death... going suspect in hisec may very well end in the same result. I do agree some implants are so expensive losing them is a pita, which might keep some people out of pvp in general.
On the other hand, it keeps other people in. As I understand it the implants business can be quite lucrative. |

Actually I agree with Diamond Bull (Great name by the way) I ran a POS out of Rarvarath (lowsec near Amarr) and another near Bei. At all points the place kept getting camped and whenever I came back in a comabt ship, the campers scattered. Well except for the one group who decided to do a run while I was helping setup a POS, that one was fun as while I lost it was still a good event. In fact the ones I made the KRs availible for on Retribution sent me pure strong hate mail for their losses, insulted my manliness and then some. All because they lost their hisec invuln.

Actually, I take it back: Knee-jerk answer to everything in EvE forum is to troll like someone who got rejected from the Jersey Shore cast for being too much of a douchebag.
Wait, where was I? Oh yes jump clones... but the mechanics of jump clones needs a review, IMHO. For the newer player, the standing requirements are pretty darn high, and the 24 hour turnover is too long. I think CCP should reduce the standing requirements for JC use to be much lower - maybe even down to zero for people who've signed up for FW militia - and the turnover should be reduced to just 2 to 4 hours at most.
That would get a lot more people involved in low-sec, null-sec and all the PvP stuff you love so much. EvE Forum Bingo |

if it's so easy to get away, the difference to the podders is that they're deprived of a nice killmail when you **** up. you also don't get punished for ******* up, and you should be. make an alt and take a rookie frig if you "just want to see what's there" if the risk isn't worth it, jump to a different clone or don't go. stop asking the game to be made easier for you because you're risk averse or scared. Why not just make an alt, don't train it at all, and send it to Low Sec every few minutes, where it gets killed? Well, that would make you happy, but I really don't care about your happiness. EDIT: Sorry. That may sound un-friendly, but you certainly don't care about any of the parts of the game that I enjoy. And I pay the same fees that you do.
actually, it wouldn't make me happy, it'd make you happy. because all you want to do is "see what's there".

Ahh I see your point. With this you could have all your implants in one station and depending on the timer, swap them over for a cost. The timer and cost, means it's still restrictive.
This could in fact remove JC's altogether, making Eve a much larger area again. But I guess that's for another debate.

Do you spend much time in lowsec Diamond? I do, I live down in Genisis and often fly from Gondista to Amarr. I like the people there, and the fights, and the challenge of it all. I'm not a ganker or a pirate but I like the fact that those players are there.
Its actually very difficult to catch a careful pilot who knows how to fly.
The OP was just looking to lower his risk and get into a little PvP. I don't agree with him because for those of us who live in low expensive implants are something we only plug in after careful consideration because imho lowsec is the worst place in the game to make ISK.
What he is suggesting would give him the ISK advantage of having the implants when wanted, without the risk.

....
Scoring kills that have a lot of ISK is better than scoring kills with a little ISK. Some people just use the ISK war to keep score, your either on the loosing side or the winning side.
Why are implants a must? I keep some in, but nothing I cant afford, same as the ships that I fly.
I think its just a different mindset; high v low. And its funny most of the threads I see on the subject are not started by low sec players asking for more players in low. They are started by high sec players who want to go there but are scared of loosing something.

What's the point on risking attribute boosters, if they bring no advantage to pvp?
Hard wiring implants are fine, they do provide an advantage, but attribute boosters should be removed from game or pod. They provide bonuses which has nothing directly linked to what you can accomplish in space. At least this way we are all on a level playing field in regards to skill training , either if I decide to go to pvp areas or not.
Put it this way: when fitting a ship you might want to risk expensive mods or rigs to give you that edge that's fine. Attributes won't help you much though. |

Personaly I think that attribute boosters should be removed from the game entirely, they further compound the already significant problem of power creep. I dont want to do this because I feel the playing field is unfair, only because I feel that real pilot skills and experience should trump in game advantages. That is another thread though.
Your idea of altering the game to minimize your own risk exposure, even though it is the same risk that everyone else is exposed to, is sickening to me. And this from a guy that just finished a 5 day thread on making PLEX safe for noobs.
If you dont want to play on the big tables then take your chips and go to the arcade section. Or I guess in your case just stay there.

First of all...

Getting your POD out in lowsec is a piece of cake, no bubbles there is no reason to lose your pod unless someone has a very well timed smartbomb or you're just an idiot.

This is the attitude that really boggles my mind sometimes, this is not about me, but ideas I think improves the game making it easier for new players and other people that refuse to make 100 or so decisions before they can even be competitive. I have lived in WH and null sec, never seen any reason yet to live in low sec though. So please don't lecture me how easy it is to escape in a pod or to spam warp when on structure.

New players are not competitive in Eve due to years of multiplicative advantages stacking up on older players. This power creep is an issue on the table at CCP, I don't know what their plan is or if they even have one. However in the rock paper scissors world of PvP there is always the chance for a new player to beat an old one depending on fits and tactics. But the greater experience of older pilots generally keeps them out of such fights, or if they do engage they have better chances to GTFO.
If you want to make suggestions and consider changes then it might be better to ask rather than suggest. You could have opened this post differently. "Hi I am a carebear and I dont go to low to PvP because I fear for my implants. Are there any changes that have been considered to keep non-combat implants safe form destruction, or is there a way I can do that in game now?" People would then tell you how to minimise risk to your implants. And how to fly in lowsec and learn how to operate there.
The thing that is unpleasant about your thread is that you assume that lowseccers want you there. Lowsec sucks, its dangerous, the ISK is the worst in the game, you spend a lot of time hiding and running. But for those of us that like that sort of play its the only place to be. Your suggestion seeks to "improve the game by making easier" I think is how you put it. If you want easy then stay in highsec and run missions. The rest of Eve is hard. And easy is not what most players here are looking for.

If you keep your wits about you, there is absolutely nothing to be afraid of in low sec. If you can't be arsed to stay alert, however, you will be fair game. This is how it should be.
If you can't handle the suspense, you will never experience the rush of a narrow escape or a the joy of landing a tackle at the very end of an overheated point.
It's only the beginning that is a little tricky because you are inexperienced, but if you're not up to the challenge, by all means, stay in high sec. |

Flying in lowsec either for PVP or Indie is simple you just need a half a brain cell to do it right. Lowsec does not need a nerf or a buff. just pilots who are willing to risk their stuff. I know of many INDIE players and corps that live in lowsec. it is.... not.... that.... hard  |
