So, I'm an old can flipper/ war dec guy who is trying to get back into the game.
CCP drove me off for a while (with these awful new crimewatch mechanics), but I'm trying to get back into the game. I don't often post on the forums, but I didn't see a lot of information on the topic in which I'm interested.
I popped a mission ship the other day and got a nice officer module worth a lot. It reminder me I once killed a macharial that dropped 2.3b in loots. I want to relive that experience more, I think.
Now I'm wondering how hard it would be to non-consentually engage some of these massive faction fit ships. I used to gank bots now and then for laughs, but I haven't done much of it.
I can choose just the active fit ones and, if i need, I could open the gank with 8 heavy neuts to prevent modules from getting turned on (at a gate).
I do have experience with alpha shooting, but I think I need to find exact concord response times to determine how many shots i'll get with a given gank ship. All i can find on this is people's guesstimates.
Here is the gig, I'm thinking.
Step 1) spend a day outside a mission hub with passive scanner and sensor boosts looking for suitable fits and recording the info
Step 2) Choose a ship with about the right EHP
Step 3)Arrange team gank with either 50k ehp alpha or neut followed by gank (need references to do the maths).
Has anyone been doing this? Seems like an untapped natural resource to me. I hadn't considered doing this. If you have the maths done, please post.
Thanks,
Mo

Can anyone post a kill mail that has done this? I would love to see an example. |

Wonder if a thrasher could alpha some of them? Daredevils and Garmurs will be active tanked with paper buffer...

Great observation. That's worth figuring out. |

Ok,
So, what do you think about this.
Skill books don't spawn in Jita. They have to be flown there.
The closest place they spawn at (that can see Jita's market) is "Sakenta" which is 2 jumps from Jita.
When I was a carebear, I used to trade skillbooks because it's a very safe commodity (spawns at set prices). I flew large values of skillbooks in ships as small as an Ibis.
Imagine all those copies of "capital ship" skill books traveling to Jita...
What do you think, farmable? It's a shame that nobody gets to enjoy all that value.
