BlackHole Bob	Posted - 2006.05.09 05:50:00 - [2] FOUR - Th'Orn - Posted - 2006.04.29 04:27:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At any station that you use often, undock in an interceptor, then without moving, manually align your ceptor so its in a straight line out from the undock point. Go in that direction and hit the MWD, go for about 1000 or 2000 kilometers and stop, bookmark the spot. Then go dock and undock again, as soon as you have loaded and can see things, warp to the bookmark, you will instantly warp away before anyone can even lock you. Even in a battleship. This is very useful if you are being camped and need to get out of the station, or if you have a fleet of yours in the station and you need to get into space and get ready to fight. Now, wheres my bomber? Blackhole Bob www.evegathering.com IGB New Player Guide - 100% In Game Compatible.
BlackHole Bob	Posted - 2006.05.09 05:50:00 - [3] THREE - Shamis Orzoz - Posted - 2006.04.28 19:26:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When trying to tackle an enemy target, left click on their ship and turn on your tactical overlay. If the ship warps out, you'll have a stright line on your overlay pointing towards their warpout point. Shamis Blackhole Bob www.evegathering.com IGB New Player Guide - 100% In Game Compatible.
BlackHole Bob	Posted - 2006.05.09 05:50:00 - [4] FIVE - TheKiller8 - Posted - 2006.04.28 10:47:00 - [97] - Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If your safespot is more than 3au from any celestial object you can do 3au 360 scans with your scanner without using overview settings. This will reveal scan probes which in turn tells you if someone is trying to bust your safespot or not. This doesn't work very well if your safespot is close to a celestial object as your scanner will be spammed by all the roids, belts, rats, cans, etc. While cloaked always try to activate a module like a sensor booster or armor repper. If the mod activates it means your client might show that you are cloaked but the server (and thus everyone else) sees you as uncloaked. This bug doesn't happen often but it happens. When positioning your interdictor on the center of a gate. Always ask someone else to check if you're actually near the center of the gate. Doing a lot of micro movements in and out a gate can easily un-sync your clients position with your actual position on the server. I've had situations where I appeared to be on the center of a gate while my actual position was 6km off! This is the same thing that happens when you move through a belt and bump off the rocks a lot (or even worse try to warp) Blackhole Bob www.evegathering.com IGB New Player Guide - 100% In Game Compatible.
BlackHole Bob	Posted - 2006.05.09 05:50:00 - [5] TWO - Foxstein Posted - 2006.04.29 02:23:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tip for handling macroers and scaring the bejesus out of noobs Fit a scrambler and head to your nearest maromart belt û drop a can and rename it ôYouö Then orbit the can and scramble it û the macomart shoppers will get the message that you just tried to scramble ôYouö confused they will then attack you and you can freely execute them ALL û no concord running interference. Also a naughty trick to play in empire noob belts snickers its funny to watch 20 noobs warp out because they think you are a pirate and just tried to attack them. Best Trick In Eve hands down Blackhole Bob www.evegathering.com IGB New Player Guide - 100% In Game Compatible.
BlackHole Bob	Posted - 2006.05.09 05:50:00 - [6] ONE - Igneus Posted - 2006.05.02 01:43:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fed up of running out of space in your frigate when cleaning up a battlefield. ? Cans spread all over the place, and would take you for ever to collect them all in a hauler ? Fit a tractor to a fast frigate, warp in and drop a can from the frigate. Tractor it and drag it behind you, filling the can up as you move around. Once you have collected all the seperate cans into one, warp back in with your large cargo space ship, and have only one can to pick up. If in a deadspace area, remember to drag the can back to the warp in location... Blackhole Bob www.evegathering.com IGB New Player Guide - 100% In Game Compatible.
Mia Archer	Posted - 2006.05.09 05:54:00 - [7] I like #1 because i havent seen it before and its pretty innovative. Also as a secondary comment for the undock and warp one, one of my corpmates made a similar bm for a chokepoint entry into 0.0, jump and warp, gets me past the gate camp every time.
Brutor Shaun	Posted - 2006.05.09 05:58:00 - [8] Out of the 5, #1 gets my vote.....
Mishima	Posted - 2006.05.09 06:04:00 - [9] #1 gets my vote although i wish you could add this to your top5(6) since it's the best trick i know and i use it every day --------------- When moving to a distant system in EVE, in an interceptor or any travel-friendly ship/setup, put your mwd in the top left slot or the F1-slot and put something heavy on your f1 button and go afk and eat or watch TV or something, in stead of sitting there using instas or mwd'ing every time you start approaching a gate. I love x-mas :D
BlackHole Bob	Posted - 2006.05.09 06:16:00 - [10] Originally by: Mishima #1 gets my vote although i wish you could add this to your top5(6) since it's the best trick i know and i use it every day --------------- When moving to a distant system in EVE, in an interceptor or any travel-friendly ship/setup, put your mwd in the top left slot or the F1-slot and put something heavy on your f1 button and go afk and eat or watch TV or something, in stead of sitting there using instas or mwd'ing every time you start approaching a gate. If enough people think this is valid and is good enough to compete with the 5 listed, I will make it a "write in" ... as actually this is a good one. (This does NOT mean everyone that adds a trick now will get written in). Do not forget to add this to the original thread that started this.

Vincent Gaines	Posted - 2006.05.09 06:17:00 - [11] I like #2 but it's not really along the lines of a "tip/trick" so my vote goes to #1
Jim McGregor	Posted - 2006.05.09 06:36:00 - [12] I want to pick something else than #1 since so many have done it, but unfortunantly I think its the most useful trick of the five. Ive also started using it. So #1. --- The Eve Wiki Project
Greenwing	Posted - 2006.05.09 06:54:00 - [13] Edited by: Greenwing on 09/05/2006 07:04:16 Only thing about trick #1, a nano-fitted sigil can do the same job in less time (max speed to fly with a ship tractoring a can is 500m/s). Only with some lvl4's where a lot of big loot drops (metal scraps ... ) it's cargohold isn't big enough and you have to fly twice (but the trick also needs you to fly once with a frig and once with a hauler). I do like the idea though i'd go for 6 though, it's the only trick i didn't know yet and sounds very handy
Phelan Lore	Posted - 2006.05.09 07:01:00 - [14] Well #1 is pretty useless to me. #2 is funny, but might get you in trouble with GMs. #3, 4, and 5 are all great tips, but I already knew them. Since I learned #3 most recently and I in fact learned it from Shamis, I'll vote that one.
Scorpyn	Posted - 2006.05.09 07:24:00 - [15] The only one I didn't know about was #2, and that one looks a bit like a possible exploit to me My vote goes to #5, but that one is actually 3 instead of 1, and 2 of those are workarounds for bugs ____________________ 45545555555555455555
Galadiin Venyaa	Posted - 2006.05.09 07:50:00 - [16] I'll take #6. The mwd F1 manual autopilot override thing.
BlackHole Bob	Posted - 2006.05.09 08:29:00 - [17] Originally by: Scorpyn The only one I didn't know about was #2, and that one looks a bit like a possible exploit to me My vote goes to #5, but that one is actually 3 instead of 1, and 2 of those are workarounds for bugs good point i removed the last two pieces as the first part was the trick per se Blackhole Bob www.evegathering.com IGB New Player Guide - 100% In Game Compatible.
Vandervecken Smith	Posted - 2006.05.09 09:09:00 - [18] I too vote #6. #1 is good, but hard to apply. I started using #6 immediately, it's simple, elegant, and useful to just about anyone.
Micia	Posted - 2006.05.09 09:53:00 - [19] I give my vote, freely, to Number Three. Shamis Orzoz. Now the question remains... "Who is Number One?!" /me pats the boxed set of DVDs. _______ I brake for Veldspar
Sir JoJo	Posted - 2006.05.09 10:02:00 - [20] i knew all the 5 but number six well i kinda knew it but never used it so it gets my vote snip Don't be nasty [email protected] to discuss mod - Cathath i am not nasty
EXZODIER	Posted - 2006.05.09 10:28:00 - [21] Originally by: BlackHole Bob TWO - Foxstein Posted - 2006.04.29 02:23:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tip for handling macroers and scaring the bejesus out of noobs Fit a scrambler and head to your nearest maromart belt û drop a can and rename it ôYouö Then orbit the can and scramble it û the macomart shoppers will get the message that you just tried to scramble ôYouö confused they will then attack you and you can freely execute them ALL û no concord running interference.

Best Trick In Eve hands down This is actually considered an exploit or it Was when it 1st started to work <think its gone now> But if it is still an exploit u maybe in trouble for postinbg it on forum HMMMMMMMM the end ? i think not

Alpha Centauri	Posted - 2006.05.09 11:44:00 - [23] #3 A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer. - Bruce Lee
Zenn Bu	Posted - 2006.05.09 12:02:00 - [24] I consider the best trick to be one that comes in useful the most often, so I have to go with #6. I used it right after I read it, and now I use it a lot. The others are quite cool too, #1 being my vote for second place. All very handy stuff. -Z
Cetshwayo	Posted - 2006.05.09 13:19:00 - [25] Originally by: EXZODIER Edited by: EXZODIER on 09/05/2006 11:06:24 Originally by: BlackHole Bob TWO - Foxstein Posted - 2006.04.29 02:23:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tip for handling macroers and scaring the bejesus out of noobs Fit a scrambler and head to your nearest maromart belt û drop a can and rename it ôYouö Then orbit the can and scramble it û the macomart shoppers will get the message that you just tried to scramble ôYouö confused they will then attack you and you can freely execute them ALL û no concord running interference.

Best Trick In Eve hands down This is actually considered an exploit or it Was when it 1st started to work <think its gone now> But if it is still an exploit u maybe in trouble for postinbg it on forum How is it an exploit? It doesn't give you an advantage, it won't work against smart people as you haven't locked them but the can. Or if you have, the red outline on their box won't show as it is not aggressive towards you (another ship not the can ).

I used to know a player who inpersonated npc's at a gate with the character name, serp.enis potroller, and often had targets in high security fire at her. A similar trick, and it got her banned ifi recall correctly. There, i just contributed nothing to your thread
Jon Xylur	Posted - 2006.05.09 14:21:00 - [27] #3 seems very suefull. It gets my vote. Please resize image to a maximum of 400 x 120, and not exceeding 24000 bytes, ty - Cortes
