Wow,
Will order the entire corp to train up for those- hell they are gonna be expensive as everyone will want one for every gate.... I think we need more entries into 0.0 if this hasnt been done already by the release because, this is gate control par excellence. This is great for system defense nevermind for piewats... wonder what the skill requirements are....

the same requrements as interdiction launchers, primarily, propulsion jamming 5... so maybe not your entire corp... Sig removed lacks EVE content, email [email protected] if you have any questions - Xorus |

Originally by: Pattern Clarc btw, it's 36 in radius, 72km in diameter.
Aha it got hit with the nerfbat if that's correct it *was* 45km radius. So that pic I posted is wrong (that's the 45kkm radius one). ___________________________________________ http://www.eve-tutor.com

The Borat in you is strong!
Anyway, you could say they are seriously overpowered and i wouldn't argue if the build cost was low, but in an age where capitals ships can jump anywhere and move whole fleets anywhere there has to be something good to catch all the poor barstewards and stragglers that can't leapfrog and er... this would be it

*wants*
And i can see this as good to locking down a system, less lag when you jump in or enemy jumps in, only need one large rather than daft amounts of mediums and smalls  ------------------------------------------

I will. My crane can fit several, and as an added bonus web stuff in the bubble at the same time :). Especially with inertial stabilisers, and agility/speed rigs, and a powergrid rig so it can actually use a MWD.
I've just noticed thought, that Anchoring delay. 8 minutes... I figured T2 was worthless, because ... well 36km vs. 54km isn't really significant for gate lockdown, but when they anchor twice as fast that's very significant.

when you can place one at 130km behind a gate, and the other at 170km behind a gate.... thats also very significant Sig removed lacks EVE content, email [email protected] if you have any questions - Xorus |

I'm afraid I don't follow? Something to do with radius vs. arrival vectors? Fair enough, but as your radius expands, your 'coverage' area of arrivals also expands.
I'm not sure I'd be wanting to put a 36km bubble 100km from the gate - just _on_ the gate will get everyone warping to zero, rather than the muppets who just use the obvious vector through system.

Sorry for being a noob, but how would putting a bubble BEHIND a gate do you any good now that insta bm's are pretty much gone and everyone will warp to 0km ?
Will it still suck you in ?
I never quite understood how that worked. My idea was that if the insta bm was made where the bubble is at, it would pull you in. But how does that work with 0km warp to gates ?

currently with interdictor spheres, your pulled in from 100km
large distrupers will make it impossible for incoming fleets to assume sniper position (assuming the same gravity well effect maintains at an estimated 170-200km)
tech II bubbles may be able to pull you from warp vectors leading slightly off grid, these things need to be tested. Sig removed lacks EVE content, email [email protected] if you have any questions - Xorus |

i dont get it. you are happy about a thing that seems to totally throw the balance overboard?
first, warp to 0 - lazy campers/gankers need to move their butt and actually _do_ something to get the prey. to "adapt". second, the lazy camper/ganker gets another powerfull tool to let the frickin butt rest and gank the hell out of everybody who crosses the bubble?
what the hell? really, please explain, i dont get it...

I was always under the impression that bubbles would _always_ suck you in, if you were a) on the same grid, and b) arriving on a vector that intersected with the bubble.
Not that I tested this extensively mind, but I'm pretty certain 'bubble suck' used to work at >100km. (Anchored smalls, not interdictor bubbles)

Warp to zero is a bodge to fix the fact that there's people who've decided that they cannot cope without the crutch that are instas. Instas by their very nature change EVE's gameplay significantly, and IMO for the worse. Although I accept I've lost that argument. Even if everyone did come to see things my way, 90% of EVE will no longer be able to cope without warp to zero.
Bubbles were initially introduced as a workaround to prevent people in fast ships with instas being TOTALLY INVULNERABLE. Now with every having the option of warping to a gate from any given vector in a system, some kind of countermeasure is needed.
This cuts both ways - bear in mind virtual invulnerabilty when travelling hurts both sides of the pirate/carebear divide. Or would you rather that next time you go and chase off some pirates there's absolutely nothing you can do to catch them?

To the best of my knowledge, a warp disruptor bubble 'works' if an arriving ship is a) arriving in the same grid as the bubble b) has a vector which intersects with where the bubble is.
They then leave warp on the edge of the bubble appropriate to their arrival vector, and on a larger ship 'drift' in towards the middle.
Thus you can set it around a gate, but then risk fast ships being able to MWD through. Otherwise you can set up the bubble 100km away, on the right vector, and arriving traffic has quite a long run to the gate.

Huginn + Domination webber + Gang Bonas = a Very Very Very Long web range, ceptors are going to have a hard time getting out of this unless they run for the gate again which then the bubble does what it was suppose to do :) _________________________________________________________ My First EvE Video Club Seals Not Sandwichs |
