The new probing mechanics are extremely easy to use considering they allow you to probe down a booster alt in seconds. Unfortunately, being able to probe down a booster alt means nothing if the warp-in is 20k km from the actual ship. Effectively, a booster alt can be 100% safe for at least an hour (and usually much longer). Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

Over the last few pages of this conversation I have been trying to make the point known that there are many ways to win a fight but there is not one answer. This is actually a really good idea.... Maybe the EAF rebalance can include the ability to provide supports from off grid! Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

What good will probing them do if you cannot land on grid with them and it can take an hour (in a Dram) for you to even see them on your overview? This is especially of interest in highsec (but also low, NPC 0.0, and to a limited extent Sov 0.0) Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

This is especially of interest in highsec (but also low, NPC 0.0, and to a limited extent Sov 0.0) I've personally killed an "unprobeable" booster without such shenanigans. -Liang Did you have somebody hiding on that grid too? I am actually v. interested in learning this trick as I know about a dozen 5-6 link boosters that get hidden away in such spots. Feel free to mail me if you would rather it not be public.

We had max skills and implants. As you would expect from an established pirate corp. -Liang Aye. That was expected. I only had LG's and t1 boosts but even max'd (+drugs) I can only get the time down to a theoretical 40min-- if they are sitting perfectly still-- given the range from warp-in area. I was hoping that you had a different way than these "shenanigans". Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

We were having trouble scanning people down until we realized we were missing a 5% Photeque scan strength implant. Ah. We are not talking about the same thing then. I am talking about ships sitting still and people not being able to warp onto the same grid as them. Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.
