NERF them MORE!!! FFS.
why? a raven with 2 stabs is still able to rat perfectly fine and avoid being locked down by the most ships. it can fit a cloak as well which does not take away any firing capability. cloak + stabs = ISK for the farmers. it is so pathetic one could come to think it is intentional by CCP.

Yeah, because using 3 modules that all have horrible affects on your combat abilities just by being equipped to overcome your 1 that keeps them in place is so terribly overpowered. Especially when the only downside to your module is some minor cap loss when it's activated.
To me, warp scramblers are far too effective, and should have a system something like what target jammers currently are. That way, even ships stabbed to hell and back can be scrambled by a dedicated ship (just like they can now using 2 +2 strength scramblers), and you won't have any old ship preventing you from leaving if you have a WCS fitted. I can solo gate camp in a drake and not worry if a battleship pops in, even with the gate guns. That should tell you something about the terrible side effects of using a scrambler in place of other mods. Well, that, and the drake's a tad too tanky for a BC.
Besides, I can't even imagine fighting with a cloak and multiple stabs. You'd take a minute to target a BS alone, not to mention something smaller. If a pvp target managed to catch you you'd be dead before you could even lock them, assuming they ever got into your lock range.

Really, if someone wants to neuter his isk/hour by fitting stabs and/or using fof cruise, let him. Ratting with that kind of setup prolly nets less than running L3s in highsec.

True enough, you spend as much time warping as fighting, but it still gimps your earnings to a point where it imho becomes not worth it. Except for farmers, but there the problem is not the WCS, it is the existance of farmers.

If they are aligned and you can't catch them with a dictor, you couldn't catch them without WCS either.
If you think you could catch them with a fast Interceptor, just fit a Stiletto with 3 x 2 points. Problem solved.

FOFs dont fire past locking range.
FoFs have their own locking range, of 80km. They do not go past this range. Which means pretty much any rats, will close, fire and be valid FoF targets.
4 stab FoF drake FTW :) -- Crane needs more grid 249km locking? GMP and TNP |

2 stabs +1 cloak and a sensorbooster t2 is more or less standard setup for the farmers. Also I rarly see em use cruisers so i doubt they got fofs, all the ones I ganked used torps as they are anyway chaining the battleships. also if u gank a farmer hauler alt u prob find torps....lots of torps. _______________________________ Vids produced by me

Three inties with one point each, preferably Crows (so you can attack his weak resist) = dead NPCer if he doesn't cloak as soon as you enter the system. Even if they can't take him they can lock him down for support to kick his backside.

I take it math isn't one of your strong points.
Best warp stabilizer is 1 warp strength. Common Warp scramblers are 2 strength, commander scramblers are 3 strength. It is much easier to stop a ship from warping than it is to ensure you can warp.
If you are too tight you could always do what BoB does best, bring 3 people to do the job of one person. ;)

Edited by: Rawr Cristina on 07/10/2007 17:37:08 WCS have already been nerfed to oblivion. NOBODY uses them on Combat setups anymore except perhaps first-time PvPers, and that's how it should be, really.
I honestly didnt mind the times when everyone fit WCS on everything, because they'd be next to worthless against an equal ship. Now people just fit for speed instead  -----

I take it you can't figure a way to hold down a ratter. May I suggest you try bringing a friend.
People asked for wcs to be nerfed, so they were.
Now you're whining because you still can't get your way. Why shouldn't he escape if he is fit to do so? It makes perfect sense to me.
Don't like it? Bring the afore-mentioned friend.
Just because you can't figure a way to kill your target, doesn't mean all of Eve should be nerfed until you just have to warp in and press F1-F8 to get your kills.

easy solution to that is to not leave local... they play logoff games with you - you play afk cloaker game with them... you will win every time.

I see bob is letting a lot of nubs in. Goin down hill from here I see.
I don't know why you think stabs are the problem. Stabs were designed so people who didnt want to fight could avoid it, when they were nerfed to uselessness for combat which was the point it was buffed for the others who fit it, because now people had no need to carry a full rack of disruptors.
To add now people fit speed setups instead which are even more immune to being caught then stabs ever were (except maybe stabageddons and the like). Thats why the vaga was so powerful speed AND stabs. If CCP had any sense they would have made stabs nerf speed and align time. (eg add mass).
Anyway stabs arnt half the problem:
Alignment: you will never catch a ratter who is always aligned Scanner: You can't warp cloaked in a dictor and thus an aligned ratter will always see you coming You will never ever catch a competant ratter as long as you can align. Cntrl+q: Puts a timer on the time it takes you to scan him out so you can't grief somone for more then 15 minutes.
Cloaking device: Who cares about not being seen aspect, cloaking device makes it so you can't be scanned. This is by far the best ratting tool ever, stabs aint got nothing on this. Even without a cloaking device you can just warp to a pos instead same effect. Stabs: Won't stop you from getting bubbled, wont stop an arazu from getting you, won't stop an inty from getting you, will stop a casual pirate from getting you.
Anyway don't be such a nubbin, just beacuse you are in bob and ccp is at your beckon call doesn't mean you need to go and ask them to make your life any easier. It's complete bull**** that you think you should be able to catch and kill anyone anywhere and ruin their fun for a while.
It's even more bull**** that you think the game should be catered to you.
Now because im a nice guy let me give you some help:
1. cloaked arazu wiating in belt 2. anchored bubble + cloaked ship 3. afk cloaked ship in local 4. watch target in cov ops cloak to learn behaivor
Ravens align slow as hell so you should easily be able to point one who is warping into you, or dictor one. Have some patience.
You shouldn't be able to warp in and have things warp to you and you subsequently press I win buttons. Eve is pretty lopsided any engagement you don't choose is likly to end in your death, therefore it should be relativly easy to not engage people.

ye gods, everyone needs to leave the CAOD crap and other tinfoilery in CAOD
Stabs aren't the problem, they have their drawbacks and they don't make you immune to bubbling, the problem is how insanely easy it is to logoffski and/or cloak and wait the whole thing out, both of which could be easily fixed. ------------------------------------ My statements are not those of my corp or of my alliance, nor anyone else.

Go find some real fights, and stop moaning about people who don't want to PvP being able to fit to avoid it.

Warp Core Stab nerf is silly to begin with. You already give up low slot space that could be used for DPS, tanking, or cargo space - it's called "opportunity cost".
Without the nerf it would be harder to pin people down since more people would run them, but you'd still have more PvP going on because people would be more willing to try hit and run raids. PvP is pretty much all or nothing, as it stands now. Plus.. let's not forget those giant mobile warp disruptor bubbles.

Use a dictor you whiner...
dude, ppl that are always aligned and hitting scanner tend to run from dictors. it's hard enough to catch them farmers without your witty comments.
Lets see shall wee?
recon ship warps in... sees said ship ratting and aligned. he positions him self INFRONT of said ratter... then moves towards him. by the time the said ratter could do anything , said recon pilot has bumped said alaigned ship off of warping out. IF the recon ship is a Gallante ship he can then lock him down with 3 or four points and sensore dampen him MORE!
end result should be dead ratter when the bob gank squad comes along. -
At last the Gallente can finally lay claim to saying... "my DICtor" is bigger than yours.

Seen quite a bit of those in BOB space.. you know they're there just to farm ISK, you also know they don't engage in combat, ever.
Shooting them down is not the only solution.
I had one of those in a system I used to frequent to earn my pvp money. She aligned, and used cloak. I had no recon nearby but I picked up a regular cloak, warped in, scanned her down to belt #10 of 20, warped to belt 13, cloaked, waited. A few mins later she warps in, aligns. I decloak and start target, of course I can't make it, I'm just checking the behaviour.. and I got her safespot pinned down.
She logs off, I start rat and just wait for her to come back. She logs in, warps to belt and start rat, I see her on scanner. Warps to her belt, she warps off instantly.
I kept doing this for a few days and after a while she swapped system.
She was no threat to me, neither to anyone else, all she did was making profit off things that I couldn't kill myself anyway - and I was able to force her away. I couldn't care less in that case as it was BOB space, and in your situation, if your space is so precious - you should consider to either not take as much space if you can't control it (learn from the Roman empire), or you just do what other people suggested here: bring friends.
It's not hard to keep those people out of your systems. And it's not hard for them to find systems where it's a pain to keep them away. Guess why they are doing it? ;) They pose no threat (pvp wise), and not much isk-wise either.
Wcs is fine, if anything they need to be buffed. Keeping 5-6 on a BS and still failing to get through a lowsec camp with 4 ships is ridicilous, still it happens. That's what wcs was made for and should work for. Camping is honestly ruining a major portion (of the pvp) of this game.

The nerf should be something like: No offensive mods may be online when using at WCS. So Speed fittings = yes, but ECCM mods (damps, TDs ect.) and Turrets and Bays should automatically be offline when using them.
But then again. . .its never going to happen.

Arazu/Lachesis + Recon 5 + 2* Domination Warp Scramblers + Sensor Boosters = 22km 4 points for virtually no cap use or ISK.

Originally by: Xaarist NERF them MORE!!! FFS.
why? a raven with 2 stabs is still able to rat perfectly fine and avoid being locked down by the most ships. it can fit a cloak as well which does not take away any firing capability. cloak + stabs = ISK for the farmers. it is so pathetic one could come to think it is intentional by CCP.
a ship with WCS should be able to ONLY travel safer, and not being able TO LOCK ANYTHING.
WCS Nerf was against pirate snipers 200km from a gate. Not against ratters. You just failed to catch him, not WCS fault that you expect him not to have any.

Originally by: Laboratus Ravens don't need to lock anything to rat. Just fire FOF cruise and go afk.
FOFs dont fire past locking range.
FoFs have their own locking range, of 80km. They do not go past this range. Which means pretty much any rats, will close, fire and be valid FoF targets.
4 stab FoF drake FTW :)
lol, yeah Wins after like 15 minutes
Drake with no BCS has crap DPS. A drake with as many as it can fit and still tank is still pretty crappy DPS. ----------- Support fixing the EVE UI |

Its not nearly as bad compared to before the nerf. Back then, it was not uncommon to see some "farmers" packing 3-5 wcs. Now, when I specifically hunt said "farmers" I fly a ship that can fit -3 and they are as good as dead IF they don't run and cloak first.
I do agree that wcs do not belong on any combat ship and nerfing them further would do just that. However, I don't think nerfing wcs again would do too much good in catching these "farmers." Mainly because they are ALWAYS aligned to a ss and they will run when anyone enters local, regardless.
I'd rather see local chat "adjusted" in a way to make it less of a tactical tool. As it stands, these "farmers" are pretty much untouchable unless they get*****y, aren't paying attention, or you enter local and pin their belt (as they are dropping out of warp on the next belt) with flawless timing.
