So you were out for a while and 40 minutes back you jumped into a billion ISK hull you couldn't afford to replace? And you didn't bother to read up on patches and ship changes? No bastion module?

1- pilot is dumb to not read patchnotes after not plaing for some time
2- pilot is dumb enought to actually die in a mission (cause a corrrect fit paladin, even from before patch, would have survived)
3- pilot is dumb enought for complaining / whining about it on forum.


tldr; pilot is dumb, game punished him for being dumb, working as intended

also, welcome back

No.. Just no...

You losing your paladin because you didn't bother to catch up on what's new isn't worth me donating a single ISK to save your EVE. No one could save your EVE except yourself. If you had purchased a bastion module your paladin would have shrugged off all of the DPS because of the resists bonuses and the 100% rep bonus it offers.

That was an even harder pill to swallow because these guys probably stalked me for a bit, found a chance and took me out with 10 destroyers (which took about 6-7 seconds). What's worse, is that ship was paid by whatever I had left from constantly running L4's and by PLEX's.. which is far worse.

I took a month off, came back, worked my way up to now having an asset base of around or over 3.5 billion (and I have a PVP alt that I support).

So here's a suggestion: man the hell up and take the loss. Get a T1 battleship, do the grind, save up, be disciplined, get another Paladin and do it right this time (fit a bastion module). As long as you don't make it a gank pinata by fiting faction/deadspace modules on it, you will never have to worry about losing it ever again, unless you're just seriously stupid.

I'm not posting to just be a **** and further assist you in deciding to biomass your character and quit EVE for good. If you take it that way, it's not my problem. Things like that don't teach if all you hear is "oh, I'm so sorry" and "oh man, that really sucks." It definitely doesn't teach you anything by having people you don't know throw ISK at you so you can replace your shiny marauder. In that case, you won't learn anything, and when you do replace it, it wouldn't mean jack squat to you. Take it or leave it, but 90% of the people who replied here, while might not be the nicest or the most compassionate, are actually trying to help.

This would have turned out differently had you put officer mods on your ship.

sorry but i'm glad this CNR was put out of it's misery

i mean, that's a joke fit right? right?

Well, it could-¦ve been a 1200 dollar navy raven.

Or 2

Pretty much covers it.

"Capsuleer Law #1: Don't fly what you can't afford to lose.

Capsuleer Law #2: Don't trust anyone.

Capsuleer Law #3: If in doubt, refer to the first or second laws."

Pretty much covers it.

Me too. If it wasn't, I wouldn't have learned how to play EVE. The reason it was fit the way it was because I didn't have the skills to fly it properly. That was the only way I learned. While I still despise Projected Damage, I appreciate what they did. Because I know a lot more than I would have otherwise.

EDIT: yes, it is a joke fit, and I laugh at it myself. If I don't, it just depresses me because I put at least $40 into something that went boom a couple of days later lol.



Nobody's getting mad. We're just trying to push you in the right direction. Asking for ISK isn't good and it won't help your cause. Actually doing something about it will make the difference between a poor experience and a really good learning tool. Take it with a grain of salt, and ignore the "delicious tears" remarks. Believe me, people have come back from losses that will cast a long shadow over the 1.7 bil Paladin you just lost ;)

If you message me in-game, I will be more than glad to help bring you up to speed on what's current in EVE. (:

not only a lack of skill, but also a lack of game knowledge

1- faction weapons are not worth the cost, use meta 4 or T2
2- stacking penaltys, your low slots show 4 BCS, 3 is the max, the 4th doesn't bring anything (maybe 5-10 dps) => stick a damage control
3- no prop, imao a big mistake, can help you put some dist vs the rats, and close gates faster
4-2 SBA are OK, but you have no shield booster fittted, plus the one in your cargo is wrong, want a Xlarge on a BS
5- now the resists, you want a pve boat, so you will encounter specific rats, and you know wich damage to tank (2 max, so 1 invuln + 1 specific hardener for each damage, switch according to mission), also now you have a free low, put a DC2 in there, 12.5% resist with no stack penalty, plus will help you big time if you get overwhelmed
6- that flux coil is ugly, and you won't be cap stable anyway, if something, use a powerdiag, that will help your cap and passive recharge giving you a tad more tank

the shield booster was there, it just didn't appear on the killboard for some odd reason. And yes, you can hammer everything that's wrong with the fit, but that's already been hammered enough for me to know all about the stacking penalties and all that, but thanks anyways (:

i saw afterward that this kill was rather old, and guessed you might have been updated about it already, but just in case, and because other ppl might wonder what is wrong, i felt it would be good for them to actually have an explanation about it

I lost a shiny ship please give me isk. How about.... No.

Stop begging like a damn peasant and go make some isk yourself like the rest of us. We're not your personal charity.

you don't even want to know what happened to me, let's just say i took a forced vacation, came back a year later to find my account 1.7 billion in the red, was forced to station trade assets at a huge loss (trying to convince people i wasn't scamming was REAL fun), got myself to the positive, had 64 million, entered a winner take all tournament for a megathron in EOH texas hold em (won thank god), ran l4's in the shittiest fit you can imagine, buying one or two new ship mods each mission's proceeds JUST TO GET A RESPECTABLE FIT, continued to run L4's, played tournaments on EOH (i've only lost one, good thing i'm a lucky gambler), i was salvaging my missions in a damn atron bro, 2 weeks since i've returned, i'm ALMOST at 1 billion

let me know when you've done any of that..

my DPS on that megathron when i first got it? 335.. 335 DPS, guess how long it took to finish a mission..

Wanted, American politicians with the gumption to say that to the masses of zombified democrat voting freeloaders

bwahahaha, if only you saw my SP's

You have families living in the LA storm drains. I wonder if thats how Zion got started...

Ishtar + T2 sentries.... took me almost 5 years to finally be patient enough to train up the long skills. ...But the best time I've had in eve so far.

i'm training them, my SP's were pretty random, i had no idea what i was doing.. like training for a loki, minmatar frigs to 5 as well, T2 mediium projectiles, but no minnie battleships.. and no T2 large guns to speak of

it'll take a minute heh

Wouldn't expect a Mittani enthralled goon to understand free will and hard work anymore than the Obama-money chanting ghetto dwellers in the 'States. ;

Jumping on a bandwagon of tough internet spaceship pilots...


Eve is tough you are bad me is not.

don't afford what you cant loose.

go forward to wow.

you are fail I am awesome be like me.

Loosing a paliadin auto biomass.

Game is for leet no life basement dwellers loose a life then come back.

I could go on.

too much hatred :( my main reason to post this was to share my fail story, not begging.

ps: (to superrich people of eve) im begging for money, please send me isk

yesterday is returned to eve, after 40mins while i was trying to get used to game again by doing missions, i tried so hard and i actually find a way to explode my paladin.
this is so sad, my toon probably going to suicide if he cant compensate the money. please donate some isk to save this veteran noob. any amount is fine. thank you.
