[Thought you'd be on the god squad, Rebirth band wagon but either way all good.

F1-monkeying : high-sec pvp = consoles : pc master race

You are the most awesome eve player I have ever met. Thank you for posting here. We are truly blessed.

Someone should mention privateers in this. Maybe not the best, but they should get credit for a few things. They made CCP change the game at least 2 times. No other merc outfit can claim that.

The general impression is that null fighting is a bunch of pushing F1 while a FC screams at you. First if you have an FC that is screaming, he isnt a good FC. The normal response out of people who are being yelled at is to ignore the person doing the yelling. No one wants to hear that especially in video game. So a screaming FC is going to be less effective than one that doesnt need anger management.

I love small gang work. I just prefer it in null where i dont have to worry about wardecs, concord, station games and hide and seek. Just blitz through a region catching who you can. Sometimes you end up with a few MTUs and sometimes you catch a carrier with his pants down and no one to rescue him:)

Please google 'armor hacs eve' then get back to me

Null is still good fun to roam but I've always favoured small gang skirmishes over big fleet fights. I wish we got more fights in high sec but I like having links, logi, implants, drugs at my disposal. With a 10 bil fit it's easier to avoid the titan bridge blobs. So high sec does have its problems but merc on merc is pretty cool in high sec.

I do miss having null sec roams...

officer props give 10% extra speed bonus on heat, which comes down to 150-250ms on say a mach.
Officer scram/points add allot of range, as well as more scram strength; scrams easier to fit than heavy warp scrams too by quite a margin.
officer cap boosters drop the time on each boost by a fair bit.
webs add allot of range.

apart from those specific mods i agree; not worth the buck. but on these modules imo it does add a fair bit.

so a vindi with tobias web + links you think is bad? or a bhaalgorn with a 50km web is bad?

For the average joe i flew with in null sec, had less accounts and had less influence. the average joe who's in say vmg does allot more. Might be the mindset/skill of the people i fly with now opposite the people i flew with back then.

Yes, just add another toon at the cost of 1-2 modules. (3 bil vs plexing($)/multiboxing(as if youre not busy enough with the ton of alts already). A toon that could be an extra logi or dps toon. Sounds great. /sarcasm.

Apparantly you're from the special needs division. i'll try spell it out for you again.

Not all ships are negatively influenced by fitting an officer mod on it; ie the mach with excess fitting room to name one. Officer items like webs, cap boosters, points and mwd's do add some/great benefits opposite blue fittings. You responded with just use a recon 5 alt. but thats another toon to multibox/keep plexed. easier to just fit an officer mod, both on pilotting as on iskies.

capice?

Although I'd rather use an alt over bling, using multiple accounts actively takes up an annoying amount of multitasking,


I generally have a scout and two combat alts, The scout is pretty passively used, if I had to add in another "active" alt, like a logi alt into the mix I tend to start making mistakes and such.

If I can avoid it I try to keep myself down to two accounts at minimum, so I can see why somebody might want to try and use less accounts and supplement with bling. I've lost High grade pods just because I've been distracted by trying to move another account around.

Can we keep this on topic. I care not how big your willy is.

Yeah i run a main, with 2 alts which are usually in nestors, and an occator with shitton of capboosts + a links/scout. Difference between xolve and me is is that i have to actively use 4 accounts in a combat situation, where i usually end up being on my own vs a blob of 5-20. I dont care if you are online with 20 alts, you're not actively pilotting all 20 of them. imo 3-4 is the max you can pilot without being too god awful slow (in subcaps).

Let me correct that for you. I do agree on the risk it all part in nulsec.

Your 1(00) vs 3(00) isnt much different then his 1 vs 3. You might risk it all in nullsec, but have a chance to get out as you're part of the 100 (and often you'r ein lowsec with NPC stations). When he go's in, he knows 100% sure he will be targeted. So maybe that's even a higher level of pvp.

This is much different than highsec.

When PL/NC. fight outnumbered

I agree. You follow the Fc's instructions, look at the targets broadcasted, lock and fire (if you're on time). Much different than when you're in a small fleet where you need to think for yourself. If you have a smart FC in 00 and you have 100 noobs who follow instruction, you can stil be awesome. If you have one noob in a highsec small fleet, you could be ******.

this exactly.
Xolve doesnt seem to get how i find a 1v3 harder than a 100v300. the individual skill gets shown more in smaller skirmishes.
I've been there, and done that xolve. i've had massive brawls in wh's, kiting fights in null/low/wh/high stretching over 1000km. All of this is pointless as you cant seem to relate to high sec pvp. You're looking at it with ur pink nullsec goggles. Fact is, you probally havent been in any (decent) high sec pvp. The silly statement of nothing fights back is just as silly, as they do try to drop on me on a regular basis, i just pilot my way out of it.

you're 90% in massive gangs on ur kb; you could be the biggest noob and tag along f1'ing and you would still do fine as long as you anchor and follow broadcasts. i'm not saying youre a bad player; you're just in a totally different playstyle opposite me. I believe you aren't informed enough as to make statements to high sec pvp.

Perhaps the topic of Best High Sec Merc Group is a matter of opinion. When it's so abstract that probably explains why it's so hard to define the answer using statistics or ISK figures. Perhaps the best indication is who people are afraid of. This is why I say Cannibal Kane because he was just one guy who commanded the recognition enjoyed by most merc corp or alliances.

Xolve you can pick a high sec merc group any time now

So to sum things up; Mr. Xolve, I don't think it's possible for you to be any more wrong. But please do try.

nice, ur screenshotting bits where i farm bads, just like you do, in null sec.
Good how you totally avoid the actual life-time stats, which would show what i said before. lol.
You're just making yourself look stupid now Xolve.

Edit: Look at Xolve guys!!!11!!1!!! he only kills frigates when hes without a big group! he's a scared pussycat!

>.> see, pointless to screenshot little bits of zkill. it's the total lifetime/pattern that matters.

And Xolve again; lifetime buddy, lifetime. You might notice my activity in-game has gone down allot in the recent two months; yet i've still killed more battleships than you have. whilst you have allot more total kills, those are mostly in frigates though, as youve killed 3x as many frigates as me. So again; totally out of context with ur frig/bs bullshit posts.

Do you PL guys really feel that relevant that you need to sperge over every single forum to get a feather stuck up ur ass to show how great you are?

babyrage? i think i'm quite calmy trying to explain you how your comments are totally irrelevant/stupid.
So again; if what you claim is true (which i doubt it is really), ur dread kill count is mega low opposite the rest.
So why are you commenting on my battleship/frigate ratio (which is 3:1), whilst ur dread/battleship count is shite opposite ur frigate count. It just doesn't make sense. YOU, Mr. Xolve, don't make sense.

I have a Socratic corpse.

I had a valve installed so on particularly sunny days I can pump it up and use it as a lilo.

Not quite sure why a disorganized group that crumbled the first time real pressure was brought to bear on it would be considered "the best" ever....
