AKULA UrQuan Caldari STK Scientific INVICTUS.	Posted - 2007.03.13 14:11:00 - [31] Originally by: Reyrith Quote: Q: Are any of the effects subject to a stacking penalty A: No, none of the effects, both positive and negative, suffer the stacking penalty when combined with modules or rigs that affect the same attribute. However they add up, so if you take a tracking comp+a drop booster you will get awesome tracking! I must be blind as a bat or it wasn't there when I posted that question. Now I have to find some of them.
Reyrith Coreli Corporation Corelum Syndicate	Posted - 2007.03.13 14:13:00 - [32] Edited by: Reyrith on 13/03/2007 14:10:27 Originally by: smallgreenblur Originally by: Shadarle I don't know... they seem pretty damn crappy to me. Well, most of them do. Some of them have side effects that would actually make them worthless while others have side effects that wouldn't cause the least bit of a problem for the user who needs the positive effect. For example, the ones that effect velocity don't really have any horrible side effects for the people who badly need that velocity bonus. So you wouldn't mind losing 20% of your hitpoints and a fair whack of falloff/missile speed? Seems to me that those are pretty nasty penalties. Next question - are these in game, and where can i get hold of them? :) sgb To answer your first question in some sitations no i wouldnt mind, as in some cases speed is the essential bit. However, my personal favorites of the boosters are the exile and the drop, the exile booster massively improving your tank in tight situations and the drop being great for snipers! As for your second question, check this.
Callistus Gallente Coreli Corporation Corelum Syndicate	Posted - 2007.03.13 17:41:00 - [33] Originally by: syncrom can i "cancel" booster effect immediately after applied it and use another one to avoid penalties? Nope, once you consume a booster you're stuck with the effects for 30 minutes, unless you are podkilled or you clone jump. -------------- [Coreli Corporation Mainfrane]

Cassana Nightwing	Posted - 2007.03.15 01:27:00 - [35] Originally by: Callistus Originally by: Tulisin Dragonflame Is it just me, or does the slave set of implants have a double bonus? The smuggling bonus should be added to all pirate implants to: 1. Keep snakes from being more awesome than they currently are. 2. Make running boosters around more viable. That sounds cool, but to be honest the smuggling bonus isn't useful if you know what you're doing because you should never get scanned by the police in the first place. ... Sorry for the minor hijack, but how exactly does one AVOID getting scanned by police? I thought the only counter to customs agents was to have a smuggling bonus??
Irma Talley Caballeros	Posted - 2007.03.15 08:41:00 - [36] IIRC, The customs agents have a rotating schedule at stargates, so you can learn which gates they won't be watching at a certain time. Haven't actually checked myself, though.

Rexthor Hammerfists Black Nova Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.03.22 12:53:00 - [38] did any1 try if these: Crash Booster (slot 3): Explosion Radius Bonus -20% Shield Boost Penalty -20% Armor Hitpoint Penalty -20% Missile Velocity Penalty -20% Velocity Penalty -20% work with capital launchers too? - Purple Conquered The World, We the Universe.

I assume they do but haven't actually tested it yet. Will confirm when I get the chance. And after the last patch the Biology skill has been fixed. It does increase the duration of boosters (though the description still says it applies to attribute boosters, rather than combat boosters) and you can't consume boosters without the proper skill level. -------------- [Coreli Corporation Mainfrane]
Lisander Kern oolk Corp	Posted - 2007.04.06 16:18:00 - [40] Originally by: Callistus Edited by: Callistus on 12/03/2007 01:53:39 snip Known Bugs: -Relogging with an active booster causes the timer in the character sheet to display "a short amount of time" instead of the actual time remaining. The booster and its effects will still last for the correct amount of time. There is a messy workaround for this. If you get booted and are running a booster, you can leave your ship (you can do a ship swap in a station). While in the character map, leave the augmentations tab and come back and the correct time remaining will once again be reported.

FawKa Gallente Old Farts Imperial Republic Of the North	Posted - 2007.04.26 14:48:00 - [41] Was a fine guide untill everyone knows its just a commercial Could someone make a guide and actually answer the bloody questions? Everyone would pretty much like to know how to carry em around after buying em from you? right? And if people really wants to build it, they will find the answer somewhere.. Pretty much the reason why this doesnt deserve the sticky it did to begin with.

Pretty much the reason why this doesnt deserve the sticky it did to begin with. (Its fine info, but no guide) What's with the hostility? This is a guide to using boosters, not making them. Point out any questions regarding the use of boosters that I haven't answered? (Aside from the citadel torps one, I was close to having the skills on sisi but then it got mirrored. If anyone who can use a Phoenix could test it I'd be grateful.) Originally by: Hehulk How exactly do you figure out what the side effects you get are?

Building Bob	Posted - 2007.12.15 01:43:00 - [44] So if i get you right (and please correct me if i dont) The booster itself is allso a conterband? So when ive bought it and has it in my cargo hold ready to use, customs can get a bit *****y if they scan me? IF i make it around til i find a situation i need the booster and hit Consume, i get the bonus AND the chance of any side effects? Or is the side effects coming after the bonus as a bad hangover? And if it is a conterband, then it is only illegal in .5-1.0 to carry? or .1-1.0 ? Regards
SimenJ	Posted - 2007.12.15 22:04:00 - [45] No one know the answer by the looks of it
GoGo Yubari PAK	Posted - 2007.12.22 16:27:00 - [46] A few questions spring to mind in case anyone knows: Do the boosters, such as Exile, work on remote reps? How do the skills work? If you got all of them at four, do you have a 0% chance of side-effects? Any insights would be appreciated. You can also Eve mail me. Love by nature. Live by luck. Kill by profession.
Sharupak Minmatar Knights Of the Black Sun Brotherhood Of Steel	Posted - 2007.12.22 17:09:00 - [47] Some more questions for the completely uneducated. Does someone have to make them? I have a whole bunch of those items listed in a station that I have picked up as loot. I dont remember seeing a consume option. Are these items that I have used in the making of boosters? I would think so, but the market for them in empire sec is almost nonexistent. I dont have the skills to use them and would like to sell what I got. Where is the drug trade. _______________________________________________ RuntimeError: ChainEvent is blocking by design, but you're block trapped.

I would think so, but the market for them in empire sec is almost nonexistent. I dont have the skills to use them and would like to sell what I got. Where is the drug trade. Check whether they are real comabt boosters, not just "mundane" drugs. Boosters have "Booster" in their description. Also make sure you have at least lvl 1 of the Biology skill. A booster a day keeps enemy at bay !

How do the skills work? If you got all of them at four, do you have a 0% chance of side-effects? Any insights would be appreciated. You can also Eve mail me. Current boosters work with local repairers, not with the remote ones. The skills reduces by some % the side effect chance. So at lvl 4 you have 20% reduction, eg 16% chance of side effect for standard boosters. A booster a day keeps enemy at bay !

And if it is a conterband, then it is only illegal in .5-1.0 to carry? or .1-1.0 ? Regards Regular boosters are contraband cargo, so customs can fine you because of them. Read my bio for an easy smuggling guide. Both the good and the bad effects (if you get it) kick in together. Boosters are illegal in HiSec and at every station which governing faction deems them illegal, but it has little effect, as the customs patrol only the HiSec, and the booster market sale is allowed at every station since Trinity.

Fedman Kasad Minmatar Bulgarian Mafia Squad Sons of Tangra	Posted - 2008.01.05 22:33:00 - [51] http://myeve.eve-online.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=515 As you can see, producing those ain't easy, but it seems quite an interesting process requiring many different parts of EVE gameplay to be used together. It's nice that someone actually put the effort in to organize a production and sell it outside their corp/alliance.

Evesham Caldari Decorum Inc Tygris Alliance	Posted - 2008.05.02 08:59:00 - [54] Could anyone explain what the Synth booster is exactly
Lux Exterior Critical Analysis R0ADKILL	Posted - 2008.05.02 11:54:00 - [55] Synth boosters have a greatly reduced effect ~3% IIRC but no side effects. So like having a cheap hardwire that only lasts 30 minutes before it pops.
Sphynx Stormlord Gallente Snuff inc	Posted - 2008.05.02 12:21:00 - [56] When you have a booster active, can you activate a different booster in the same slot? If so, does it replace the previous one (and side effects)?

So like having a cheap hardwire that only lasts 30 minutes before it pops. Does this mean that a booster disappears after it is used or is it like an implant where it only disappears if you are podded
