Insta-shield recharging while in a war.
Background: our corp was recently war decc'd by ****** (yes, I'm blanking them out on purpose) and we were subsequently forced in a station camp. We got enough ships together for a counterattack and were lucky when an enemy Raven had undocked. Instantly we were all over him like, well, something sticky I guess . So we almost had his shield tank destroyed at 15% left when he suddenly docked up (not an exploit, I know). However, he undocked immediately after with FULL shields.
What he essentially did was to use the stations' dock, fitting, and redock to give himself infinite shields at no isk cost to him whatsoever. Unlike an armor tanker that has to pay to get their armor back up, he pays nothing by just playing with his fittings. This is allowing him infinite shielding at no cost whatsoever to him, and has even been exploited by the ****** corp rotating on the people that are shooting us, until the docking timer runs out, and they dock back up to recharge instantly.
So naturally a couple of corpmates file petitions over this, only to be told that this isn't considered an exploit. I'm sorry, but how is this NOT an exploit?

Edited by: Surfin''s PlunderBunny on 23/01/2008 23:46:18 uh... to my knowledge that's been fixed
Unless he had some armor damage and maybe used the in station repair facility and that fixed it

They can't undock immediately - there's an approximate 30 second timer stopping you from undocking straight after you docked. There's also an aggression counter of about a minute - you can't dock or jump through a gate for a minute after you've shot something.
Here's a question though - what's stopping you from doing the same?

Wrong. You can undock the instant you dock. 族---族

Theres a 30 second session-change timer, so you cant swap ships or re-dock, but undocking is fine

He recharged his cap too. Of course this doesn't work if you have armour reps fitted.
CONCORD provide consequences, not safety; only you can do that. |

You realize some stations have 40km+ docking range and nanophoons are dead and buried?
This is a problem.. if drones cant do it, ships shouldn't either.

If you can't find the firepower to KILL a damned wartarget within 30 seconds of him STOPPING firing on you (time he CAN'T dock), then stop fighting right in front of stations, you freaking nitwits.

Umm... just do repairs (a minor cost) and your armor is back to 100% ------------------

Exploit lmao thats no exploit! its a feature that has been around for as long as i can remember.
Unfair? well life aint fair now is it so suck it up and be smarter with tactics like mentioned bumpige.
p.s.
Docking range of stations can be dozens of kilometers, dont bother petitioning it because its also a "feature".
The stone age didn't end because we ran out of stones!

Minor cost my ass, a Trimarked,plated megathron costs around 7-10m per full armor rep, and if you remove the plates to fit reps...guess what....you cant undock...free armor reps plz.

utter trash i have one that currently hits over 4400ms when in a gang with bonuses. and on the test server with correct implants i can hit over 5000ms ,
dont cry to me that ts expensive because its not. i have a faction mwd that cost 28 mill. the most expensive fitting is the polycarb, and for everyone one of those u fit you add an extra inch to the size of your smile when you see a battleship/ battlecruiser wizz away from a station into the middle of your awaiting corp mates and miles away from the stations docking range :)
LONG LIVE THE NANOPHOON.

Hmm, is the OP trolling? That is so damn funny, petitioning because your wartargets docked. I would LOVE to see those petitions.
"waahh, make them stop docking!"
The only kills you're going to get at stations, are situations where someone is dumb enough to aggro a ganksquad or when you're lucky enough to bump them far away enough so that they can't redock.
Go camp a gate, is the only pvp left in this game. ------------------------------- The opinions reflected in this post DO reflect the opinions of my corp...of one guy and a bunch of alts. |

Edited by: goodby4u on 24/01/2008 03:37:33 Find his lowest resist and warp jam him dont fire...he will either just sit there or shoot you,once he attacks you that provides you with a 30 second time to break his tank down and kill him...If you cannot do that then by camping him in the station your preventing him to carry out his pvp wardeccing fun. This is what happens when a kestrel with thermal missiles declares war on earth |
