This is to counter the power of brawling with your caps on lowsec gates, and if things go bad jumping through and cynoing out since nobody can bubble the other side.
Called it. Ish.
I approve.

Do you have a better idea for stopping caps being immortal in low sec?

Do you have a better idea for stopping caps being immortal in low sec? The only thing this does is ensure that, if you are already losing the fight, you will definitely lose your cap. There is no need for this change as all you would need to do to stop the cap from jumping and then cynoing, is bring two HIC or make sure your HIC is not aggressed if the enemy cap isn't.
You're forgetting lock times, they'd be uncatchable. |

@Fozzie you should probably have also put the fact interdictor bubbles are getting halved in size in this thread too.
Edit: Or are these ADDITIONAL charge types? |

Ah, I read that the other way, in which case the concerns about why bother with a dictor stand. |

Just my 2 cents
Liking the Onyx ideas btw I am also curious why long points and scrams do not make your targets explode immediately. The hassle it take to also have to work for a killmail makes me almost sad. You might be being too harsh on him elitatwo, There should be absolutely zero way to escape a gatecamp.  god forbid someone has to not aggress in an inty and jump through to catch someone who crashes gate. Please note the sarcasm in the above two linesStopping non-agressed ships from jumping or docking would be way broken. Sorry Monumental Inscriptionist, if getting kills when you outnumber some one 10 to 1 in a camp is too hard for you
It could easily be scripted with an appropriate malus to scan res meaning only the biggest ships (and baddest pilots) are reliably caught.
I.e. Loitering on field with a HIC is a bad move, passing through or poking your nose out the station go unharmed. |
