everything.

Over-simplification is one thing, but reducing all this to THIS? Please.

its literally the only relevant thing that has changed so yeah it is that simple,
we called this about a month ago and here it is.

High sec WD's should go through a high supreme Court system so both sides can present their case with security and empire standings factored into it. Those numbers should be used a lot more for game systems.

We need wardecs changed so they are attackable. Steve Ronuken had a good idea about making them dependent upon an anchored whatsit that can be shot. That would be good I think.

Wardecs are favorable to the defender believe it or not.

lol

and thats fine but how are they even affording to have so many wardecs? it cant be sustainable surely. the pricing structure wqs supposed to stop all that and making it just far too expensive to war dec so many

Rather than post a throw-away, why don't you give me your reason why?


You've always been a pretty vocal person. Why don't you embellish that and give me reason's?

1. You want to be able to legally kill assets or ships in highsec. These are typically declared against relatively defenceless industry corps. This is where my experience is - it is hugely lucrative.

2. You want easy kills from unsupported solo pilots at trade hubs or pipes. These are typically declared against huge alliances to increase the chances of harvesting the daft.

3. You actually want to fight another corp. I can't remember the last time this actually happened outside of RvB.

The reason a deployable structure which can be attacked to end the war dec would be a good idea is because there is currently no practical way to force a fight with highsec wardec corps. They just dock up. This would give a small indy corp a way (likely via mercs which would be healthy) to attack the dec itself.

Sure, it would make a declaration against a capable alliance risky. So what?

Because, Believe it or not, I want Wardecs to be rehashed tweaked and reworked into some better.

Defenders have all the advantages but no reasonwish to use them. That is the problem. Giving them a get out jail free card is an excuse slip. Not a reason.

Avoiding war targets is pretty easy for a defending corp you just have to follow few simple rules in regards to trade hubs and work as a team to gather intelligence if a war target is close.

On the other hand pirates don't like to fight they want an easy kill so if you try to fight them they just dock.

It is however possible to setup traps and kill some of them but it usually does not worth the effort especially for small industrial corp.

So in order to annoy so called MERCS I'll just list the measures needed so that they have hard time finding targets and switch to low sec or null sec pvp where they will loose some ships instead of harassing defenseless targets . ;)

1. Corporation Safe spot locations in all trade hubs (Jita, Amarr, Dodixie, Hek) also in home systems.
- instant warp after undock safe spot
- instant dock for trade station

2. Avoid main trade route systems like Uedama when traveling with slow ships, use frigate with propulsion upgrades for 2s warp time when you have to travel to trade hubs during war.

3. Use alts in NPC corp to transport large shipments.

4. Add war deck corp with red standing and watch local, don't mine AFK and if you see them dock.

5. Watch opposing corp kill board and see if they are close to where you are, if you have standing use locator agents for same purpose.
