I don't understand something: in 2011 CCP set an agression timer for launching an interdiction probe. When did they change that back ??
https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=38950
Edit: Patched back in 2013/2014 as it seems. Weird. May we expect to have the timer back in 2016 ?  |

Why not just give the dictor pilot an aggression timer if their bubble includes a station/stargate/pos module/other anchorable or NPC stationary? |

I'd be interested to know why an entirely new mechanic was chosen over something with precedence.
I like that idea, it would make it easier to defend a station from attackers. Just drop all of your supers into the no bubbles allowed zone around the station and enjoy your near invulnerability because nobody can lock them down. |

This is probably the best solution that could be had for the current problem. It solves the problem of untouchable dictors annoying cap fleets in NPC null (and as someone who has done it, I will agree that it was an abusive mechanic, even if there were some solutions) without breaking any other interactions with light dictor gameplay. If your fleet controls the station grid, your dictor can still keep it locked down. Dictors in roaming actions can still bubble and crash (and this isn't the same kind of problem because they can still be caught on the other side of the gate).
If you're asking why Light Interdictors can do all these cool things and HICs can't, you should be pushing to make HICs less awful instead of trying to crush dictors down to their level.
Seriously I bought a pair of Broadswords as soon as GSF announced 100% reimbursement bonuses and I still own both of the damn things because there is almost never a time when I have a legitimate reason to use them instead of just hopping into a Sabre. |

I understand dropping a bubble and docking is unintended but why are you not addressing the problem and instead addressing the average 0.0 pilots way of fixing it for you?
So I guess you are making it so that the average 0.0 alliance can disable npc station services and not have to use dictors to slow them down?
You realize NPC statiosn are mostly popualted by the less powerful group , exact;y the ones ccp want to HELP?
If you fear having soem smaller groups livign in NPC statiosn not far from you.. YOU DO NOT DESERVE YOUR SPACE

Silvonus wrote:Now can we make it so that interceptors care immune to anchored bubbles, but not those from interdictors or heavy interdictors? A much better solution would be to have a new destroyer class based on the T1 hulls that presently have no T2 version. i.e. Dragoon, Corax, Algos and Talwar. That are purposely tasked to slow down ships but not to prevent them warping off.
The problem is that interceptors use the "tick" of the server to evade capture so that suggests a bubble mechanism similar to normal interdictors would be required that can slow a ship down.
So how about a bubble that works like a Stasis Webifier instead of a Warp Disruptor.
Scenario
Ship warps to an object, gate, anomaly, etc but a "Friction bubble" is up.
- The the ship enters the bubble but is slowed down drastically say its inertia and current speed is cut but 90% or such.
- Maximum speed is not affected though.
- This "Friction Bubble" would not prevent ships warping off.
- But it would take longer to align out and you have to again increase your speed back up to warp-out velocity.

My suggestion is a bit different.
Station guns will be shooting to each dictor bubble if the dictor leaves the grid.
This is very important change.
Because :
You can use this kind hobojumping to bubble enemy on your own station undock.
This will be not preventing enemy fleet from undocking, but leaving the station grid.
As there is no station guns in SOV space.

I am totally disagree with his changing!
It just have impact on NPC 0.0 stations! It is not right if you say, "the risk of the dictor pilot
is not im common with the impact he can do with his warp bubble"!
You can also ask. Is it in common with risk, that the capital fleet can stay docked without any risk? They can
also use a POS or what ever. They are docked without any risk.
You should not nerv this mechanic!

You should not change anything which is not broken. The real question is, why should the
capital fleet enjoy the safety from station?

How about a look at ships sitting 1M outside a pos?
It is about as overpowered a feature as hobojamming, although I am unsure how to fix it.
Also replacing all stations with the caldari model would fix the hobo jamming problem. |

Maybe not in Pheobe but later on the interdictor could get a CPU bonus for cloaking devices but no covert?
My other idea was maybe still allow the station camping but add a new t2 destroyer ship using the unused algos etc and allow them to use a new module to generate a null field of sorts around them lets say 12km diameter bubble that allows it and close by ships to warp away inside of interdiction bubble but with a longer warp wind up time if that makes sense. In terms the "nullifier" would allow a larger group to break away faster but would possibly be destroyed while generating bubble for its fleet if there are pilots camping the bubble. risk equals tactical reward sorta.
Or we could could make the bubbles if they are x-km from npc station or gate that they pop in a shorter amount of time and even quarter the time if the dictor pilot docks. |

This is the mechanic where an interdictor pilot can undock from a station, drop a bubble to block capital ships from leaving the station, and then immediately redock before being locked.
In general we like to have lots of good methods for disrupting larger groups, but this "undock-bubble-dock-repeat" mechanic doesn't provide enough risk to the dictor pilot to be properly balanced
So when can we expect a serious rebalance of afk-cloak camping with dual cyno fitted ships?
Compared to hobo jamming, afk cloaking is much much more imbalanced. In hobo jamming you can mess up and not redock in time - you can actually be targeted if you mess up. Whereas afk-cloaking with dual cyno's leaves you completely impervious to all attack, yet can achieve the exact same level of disruption of a system, without even showing your ship.
Back in the day I abused this as a small group to kill a 1000 man alliance with 20 people, I took part in taking an entire region with this as 30 people. But it is just too powerful a strategy which has no tactical counters. |

I'm not mad. I personally don't give a **** as i have all the isk i could ever want.
But compared to the mechanic of hobojamming, afk-cloak camping is a much much worse mechanic with no counter. I can't use any fit, on any ship to counter you.
That is not immersive gameplay, it's not fun gameplay, its not gameplay at all. |

meh afk camping / hobo jamming etcetera. i care not for these things. they all prevent fun fights so yahh kill hobo jamming fair enough. i look forward trapping pastas in our space each time you **** up a drop (which seems to be more and more often whilst we're doing our current disruption techniques re:hobojamming).
i will say this though, you guys drop blops and bombers damn well. Sooo many alts all using wheniaminspace's mantis without renaming them. the simple fact you're camping our space all day every day means deep down u really love us! <3
we're doing our best currently calling out your hotdrops it seems, least thats what i notice when im on. whether that makes you mad or not i dunno. but id hope it helps you feel the love as much as you help us feel the love too!
im sure you'll push the envelope in terms of rapid hotdrop killmails from something like 30sec's to 1minute when u burn out the bubble/ mjd 100km off the undock and then drop, to what you were used to before we came along. With no action for hour after hour (whilst ur enjoying FW in low), and an afk cloaker in every one of our systems, then suddenly blops out the station and 5secs later, jump to afk camper that has uncloaked and scrammed a target, kill it in less than 30secs, mjd, cloak up, and blops jump out to the station undock.
whether thats fair or not (CCP, you guys and many others believe its 100% legit fair and fun for all game play currently) we'll still look to have fun fights with you, hobo jamming or not. |
