-+-ü-é-Ç-¦-¦-+-é-¦-+-î is the correct singular, meaning fighter :)

OK, so he's taking a pot shot at Valkyrie. Thanks. :-)

Otherwise, does it look OK?

(I should add that I'm attempting the translation just because--I have no experience on the subject myself, and no opinion.)

I'm against removing fighter assist. It's not a huge problem, stop turning Eve into Frigates Online. If skynet is really the problem, block fighter delegation within 50km of a control tower. Problem solved.

can't you disallow fighter assist from within 50km of a tower instead ? that's gonna produce some lovely killmails

removing fighter warp is completely unnessecarry

This is actually not bad idea, but it should also be blocked withing that range of a station. I'm ok with people using fighter drones to help their fleetmates, but getting 1000dps for free from a carrier that can only realistically be killed by a titan doomsdaying it or a spy sneaking into the tower and bumping it out is way too much.

I dunno if you noticed, but fighters generate aggression and weapons timers. A competent 100mn Cynabal, Stabber, or Macharial will be able to send the carrier off the station. A sizable torpedo bomber fleet can break it in under 60 seconds, not to mention a decent Talos fleet can as well. Alternatively, a few Moros can end an Archon quite easily.

Not everyone goes roaming with 20 taloses, a 100mn cyna/stabber or a machariel. Forcing the carrier to be 50km off a station solves that problem though,

So wait, what were you going to use to kill the carrier? A few Ruptures? I'm missing this piece of information.

No more fight advantage while being afk , hard to understand ?

I hope the expansion when Super are not combat vessels will come soon.

in the Other hand cloak should be an active thing too same as boost :)

I was talking more about the pos version of skynet when I wrote that. I am aware you get timer, as I know that a bomber fleet needs to be over 50 pilots to realistically break a carrier before his friends can react. Bumping depends heavily on the kind of station we're talking about, and a 100mn Stabber or Cynabal won't live long under fighter fire. The machariel is a good point, but then, how often do you see battleship roams nowadays?

Uh, where are you getting 50 pilots from? According to my PYFA, a DPS Purifier does 651 DPS with 2 BCS and Rage torps. The highest tank I can squeeze out of an Archon without green, blue, or purple is 19207 EHP/S with a Triage II module, which means it can't assign fighters, not to mention it has ****-poor DPS. It'll cap out in less than 4 minutes, but it'll still be in a Triage cycle which means it can get cap or reps. Now, assuming a non-Tank version, it has 4090 EHP/S with a single repper and a DC2, which means that you only need 7 torpedo bombers to break it.

I'd like to bring your attention to this video of 38 bombers killing a PL Archon, even when it entered Triage. It didn't last very long even with 2x Capital armor reppers. In short, If you stop using 300 DPS bombers and start using 651 DPS Bombers your alliance could smell like the man you've always dreamed of. Everything's possible with 651 DPS Bombers. I'm on a Boat.

So, it's just 38, ie: almost 40 people to kill an archon without hardeners, shooting mostly into it's resist holes, and it still lived for almost a minute. Pretty much what I'm saying. When assisting fighters from the undock you don't need a triage mod or local repair as much as you need enough buffer to redock, and since that video was made we have recieved some very useful mods called Reactive Armor Hardeners. Combine that with a DCU2 and you've got 1.2m EHP on the thing easily.

Basically, if they remove fighter assign I DEMAND they re-balance all wealth within the eve universe as a whole. It has gone on far too long! While null sec inhabitants and capital owners alike have been getting shafted patch after patch with no reconciliation for their losses. The cries of high sec and low sec players alike have been heard and their demands met, yet it has not one has made a move to live in null despite their constant "this is why I don't live in null" complaints that have forced these changes upon us. It has gotten so out of balance that I must make comparisons to high sec activities to show how much money is available to the individual player within null. The people of high sec and low obliviously have no real interest in fair play or living in null at all. They want all the isk and none of the risk and cost of living in null space. If you want to make 120m an hour (looking at you high sec incrusioners) come to null and risk your assets to obtain it. If you want to make 800m an hour, well I laugh at you entirely (looking at you faction warfare). WH space... I have less of an issue but god! Stop riding your high horse about no local, your lone system can be put on lockdown be happy with what you got, null is always open to roamers and hot drops.
