Dmitry Wizard THE AESIR. Ragnarok. 178	Posted - 2014.01.30 06:05:00 - [1] - Quote its stated in the attributes that it has to be activated at least 3000 km from a gate or station... so why does this thing have the abillity to be anchored 5 km from a wormhole? not only does it have a warp distruption bubble on it (i can deal with that) but it broadcasts IN LOCAL who has jumped into the wormhole its anchored on EVE System > Dmitry Wizard is now in proximity of the Encounter Surveilance System keep this crap in null and get it off my wormholes! these kinds of things make me think CCP hates us wormholers We need MORE pvp in wormholes.... not less "Wormhole corps are like a bunch of homeschooled kids"
Searbhreathach Vanguard Frontiers Black Legion. 4	Posted - 2014.01.30 06:17:00 - [2] - Quote ohhh thats awesome use of game mechanics right there
I Love Boobies All Hail Boobies 996	Posted - 2014.01.30 06:37:00 - [3] - Quote Searbhreathach wrote: ohhh thats awesome use of game mechanics right there I agree. Love it when people figure out how to use something in a way it probably wasn't intended in the first place.
Unsuccessful At Everything The Troll Bridge 9667	Posted - 2014.01.30 06:41:00 - [4] - Quote I'm a little irritated that I didn't think of that first..... *Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?*
Nariya Kentaya Always Negative 1041	Posted - 2014.01.30 07:02:00 - [5] - Quote OP has a valid point though. clarification though, can these be anchored in a WH? or only on the nullsec side, TBH i didnt read the anchoring requirements when they posted the devblog on it because i couldnt give less of a **** living in lowsec and all. but yeah, if it can be anchored IN wormholes, borderline exploit to circumvent intended mechanics, if only on the nullsec side, well, like it matters with local anyway.
Morganta Peripheral Madness 1955	Posted - 2014.01.30 07:06:00 - [6] - Quote oh please tell me you can put them in w space
Dmitry Wizard THE AESIR. Ragnarok. 180	Posted - 2014.01.30 07:10:00 - [7] - Quote yes hey can be anchored with in 5 km of a wormhole IN wormhole space. destroying 80% of wormhole pvp "Wormhole corps are like a bunch of homeschooled kids"
Nimrod vanHall Biohazard. WINMATAR. 59	Posted - 2014.01.30 07:14:00 - [8] - Quote So the ESS does the same as a scout in a cov ops 99 km of the hole and a T2 large bubbel. that a not an exploit its an innovation.
Dmitry Wizard THE AESIR. Ragnarok. 180	Posted - 2014.01.30 07:16:00 - [9] - Quote it kills wormhole pvp. and destroys the whole "unknown" aspect of wormhole space "Wormhole corps are like a bunch of homeschooled kids"
John Bosch State War Academy Caldari State 65	Posted - 2014.01.30 07:54:00 - [10] - Quote Considering the following facts: 1. Only one ESS can be active at a time. 2. WHs have multiple statics. 3. Random entrances pop up in the form of K162s I conclude that while using an ESS to monitor a WH is innovative, it is nowhere near as effective as you claim it to be. (This is assuming, of course, that the dev blog I just read on the matter is accurate as of patch time.)
Black Panthera 5	Posted - 2014.01.30 08:04:00 - [11] - Quote So, CCP made ESS to be 'local' channel for wormholes? ;) Btw.. is there a need to anchor ESS in WH since Sleepers don't have bounties?
Dmitry Wizard THE AESIR. Ragnarok. 183	Posted - 2014.01.30 08:13:00 - [12] - Quote no sleepers dont have bounties. and wormholes with one static can still be looked at with it. it doesnt belong. "Wormhole corps are like a bunch of homeschooled kids"

Billy McCandless The McCandless Clan Turing Tested 156	Posted - 2014.01.30 08:18:00 - [14] - Quote dis is teh gratest news EVAR i luv yoo SeeSeePee Die WH skum

If only one can be active at a time, then you can only cover one out of x number of holes.

Prince Kobol 1419	Posted - 2014.01.30 08:54:00 - [17] - Quote Saw PLZ instead of Please in the title and stopped right there.
Esrevid Nekkeg Justified and Ancient 260	Posted - 2014.01.30 09:20:00 - [18] - Quote John Bosch wrote: 2. WHs have multiple statics. Mmmmmm.....no. Some have only one. I should know, I live in one. Brb, have to buy me an ESS automated wormhole guard.... Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format. Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......
Altrue Exploration Frontier inc Brave Collective 967	Posted - 2014.01.30 09:32:00 - [19] - Quote Yes this is creative gameplay, which is cool. But its also an automated, 100% accurante and instant way of scouting a wormhole. Without mentionning the fact that it also acts as a "super bubble" with its EHP. So definitely, put a minimum WH anchor distance. Signature Tanking - Best Tanking.

You can only deploy one ESS at a time. is that limited to one per system or one per pilot?
Aralyn Cormallen Wildly Inappropriate Goonswarm Federation 168	Posted - 2014.01.30 09:43:00 - [21] - Quote I apologies for believing the ESS was a completely useless piece of crap with no sensible use. Credit to whichever smart bastard figured this one out.
Speedkermit Damo Demonic Retribution Nullsec Ninjas 233	Posted - 2014.01.30 09:48:00 - [22] - Quote There was a 100 page treadnaught where we all tried to tell CCP that this ESS thing was stupid, unwanted and just plain broken. Of couse they didn't listen. Don't Panic.

Angelica Dreamstar Epic Boo Bees 401	Posted - 2014.01.30 12:05:00 - [26] - Quote Hell! Just shoot it you whiny little *****! EVE ONLINE: The universe is ours!- Join the Epic Boo Bees! (RP,PvE/PvP,wardecs,new players!)You're at it from day 0!
Mag's the united SCUM. 16623	Posted - 2014.01.30 14:51:00 - [27] - Quote This is absolutely hilarious. Nice work SoniClover. Destination SkillQueue:- It's like assuming the lions will ignore you in the savannah, if you're small, fat and look helpless.

Notorious Fellon Republic University Minmatar Republic 162	Posted - 2014.01.30 15:04:00 - [29] - Quote It can be used to your advantage in low class WH's. Just warp to it and set it off every 15 mins or so. It forces the locals to flee to their POS and remain there. Meanwhile they are batphoning their hermit friends. Do it in the middle of the "night" for their primary timezone. Makes a great trolling method. Use multiple accounts. It will go off over and over making them think you are moving in or staging an invasion. Then shoot down the stupid thing after you had some fun with it. Once you scout a few pilots logging into their POS, leave.
Omanth Bathana GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 127	Posted - 2014.01.30 15:51:00 - [30] - Quote Hey! It's almost like nearly every large null-sec alliance overwhelmingly said the ESS was pointless, poorly designed, and would hurt the gameplay it proposed to encourage. Oh wait, that did happen, and all we got was a trivial change to the bullshit mechanics that plagued it. Mad props to whoever figured out the anchoring distance thing though.
