I've noticed previously empty areas are now full of terrible (~60%) corps searching for bombers. I lost a bomber to one such player, handed in my other 19 missions, went for lunch, played some dota, got another 20 missions and he was still camping the same system mission gates without any sign of leaving, dedication to frigate kills right there! Considering bombers are cheaper than the payout from one mission and take up no volume at all in a JF I don't mind feeding a few away, I'm just amazed that so many players previously unwilling to pvp are coming out of the woodwork to kill frigs. At least smartbomb the pickup route and you might get some pods of value rather than chasing cloakies for hours on end. Most players just WTZ inline the whole way around in shuttles, chances are at least a few of them have implants. This is not a forum alt, this is a forum main.

Which I then spend when we are at T1 on home system defence (scary times but pretty epic pvp). Make Hay while the sun shines. I see people getting called 'farmer pigs' etc in militia chat for running missions and actually making money. Granted at lot of them are alts from other factions / null but many are still in militia, the simple fact is that you can't really fight it so just go with the flow, you'd be silly to pass of the opportunity when it comes around because due to the cyclic nature of FW it won't be there forever. Especially at this time of year where people are often unable to commit to ops for RL reasons its a nice time to casually farm for the future. The people who have a problem with the FW system are the ones making it a problem by caring about FW sov as if its some metric of success. If you want take systems go take some POCOs or POS down that may actually mean something, don't make chasing stabbed frigates your problem. This is not a forum alt, this is a forum main.
Plug in Baby Crouching Woman Hidden Cucumber 76	Posted - 2013.12.30 23:37:00 - [3] - Quote Merely Runaway wrote: When I first joined the Minmatar I joined what felt like a real campaign that truly felt like it meant something. These days the pew is great but the whole farmville flip-flopping of the warzone makes me sad. I guess I just wish it all meant something. It actually meant something when it had no ISK value, you fought plexes for the sake of the fight, not for LP. Also there was a bit more barrier of entry, limited access to the %contested data from the server meant that uncoordinated players made a lot less impact, although I'm sure given enough time those tools would have become widely available. Now it is the uncoordinated players that drive the majority of the Sov war People complained that FW didn't 'mean' anything, now its worth farming and people complain that people are farming it. Plato Forko wrote: Second, chasing off stabbed frigs isn't a problem, it's a solution. I do not believe there are enough players that find sitting in a comet / condor / January'sFOTM cashing stabbed frigs fun to cover 70 odd systems 24/7. Until then farmers gunna farm.

Aviators so far seem to be the perfect storm of local smack, terrible pvp, laugh-out-loud-comedy fittings largely without the excuse of being new. This is not a forum alt, this is a forum main.

Defiant legacy. - Was on a cad moon in our home system undefended (0 guns or hardeners) Meltdown was on a moon that was mining for one individual rather than for the corp. Also meldown will be lucky to field 3 guys so yeah a moon that pays for 1 characters account hmmm. Erm how does that justify taking someone else's moon exactly? If the POS had guns would it be: "Well the POS was armed but it wasn't set up to shoot blues, so we figured we could take it" Why does the use of the moon have anything to do with it? It's not up to you how they use it. (or it won't be shortly) This is not a forum alt, this is a forum main.

Im super serial This carrier pilot somehow ninja'd into a random fleet (yours) on the off chance your would light a cyno and he then proceeded to drop into a battle on the off chance he wouldn't be called primary by one side or the other while grabbing a few kills. Not to mention that it was undocked before and they specifically wanted us to jump through so they could warp it in with full cap rather than jump it, but yeah neutral. Somehow Bio didn't spot the neutral carrier on grid and tag the KM (although considering their reputation this isn't necessarily surprising) It was very kind of them to batphone SC just in order to protect the neutral triage thanny (lol) from being 3rd partied.

You would know that if you had half a brain I was about to say what 50 man corp has over 100 inactives?! But then I thought about it, if I was in a corp with such delusional leadership I'd probably stop playing as well. Who wants to grind plex / backstab POS just to make their leaders richer. Especially when they need to move the whole corp around rather than farming on alts. This is not a forum alt, this is a forum main.

Plug in Baby Crouching Woman Hidden Cucumber 194	Posted - 2014.04.19 13:57:00 - [16] - Quote I am inclined to believe Aslon here, who is more qualified to diagnose mad than someone who makes an alliance dedicated to venting rage. This thread desperately needs more content, can Amarr just hurry up and take Huola or do something otherwise hilarious. I need to hear more from some serfs about how important WZ control is.

That is fine, no one is making you play the game that way, but loads of people just blame the game mechanics. If they don't want to play the game competitively they shouldn't complain when others do. It'd be a pretty dumb game if having an organised fleet didn't give any advantage over a ragtag fleet just out for luls. Mess around and have fun or step up to the challenge, just don't complain when someone else doesn't chose the same way as you. This is not a forum alt, this is a forum main.

What if I told you that high end pvp often involved stable reps for both sides and the challenge was disrupting logi sufficiently to win. logi is completely broken, there isnt a solid counter to them anymore that isnt DEDICATED ships to HELP take down logi. usually you have to have 3 or 4 ashimmus with 5 neuts to take down a group of guardians dual neut hurricanes are gone, OP ec-300's are gone. which were the MAIN killers of guardian groups Its weird how other people in Eve haven't seemed to make the discovery that logi is completely unbeatable now, it seems like that information would be useful when there is a lot at stake. Just wait until other players discover this unbeatable strategy and use it to win the game, then CCP will have to step in and remove it. This is not a forum alt, this is a forum main.

I'm sorry but there is no comparison, T1 logi is just terrible compared to T2. Sure T1 may have similar rep, but resist, tank, sig, cap, SS are all bad, they melt instantly in a proper fight. As for ISK logi is like 250-300m and they die incredibly rarely, even in corps that don't provide logi that can't be hard to afford on a FW budget right, like 6 missions? The transition from T2 to T1 logi has basically meant some people aren't training logi 5 and militias in general now struggle to fight decent 3rd parties compared to say 2 years ago.

Although you manage to string a sentence together, you are still ignoring my point. Plug in Baby wrote: Sure T1 may have similar rep, but resist, tank, sig, cap, SS are all bad You can't compare the two ships based on rep alone, sig is probably the main difference (~30%) followed by buffer/resist. As noted above by Kaea. Anyway I can't be bothered to argue about this anymore all I'll say is logi is fine, it has obvious counters and doesn't need to be nerfed.
