Kye Do'lan Gallente The Whitesands Consortium	Posted - 2008.01.25 12:31:00 - [1] I would just like to know... what is the fastest ship for AFK traveling in empire....I currently use a crow whit 3x T2 overdrives and 2 x aux thruster rigs, that gives me 875 m/sec. What I really want to know is there anything faster. My Skills
Magorath KR0M The Red Skull	Posted - 2008.01.25 12:46:00 - [2] Either a claw or crusader with 4 overdrives and two warp speed rigs.
RoSsCs Caldari Jupiter Mining Corp New Eden Research	Posted - 2008.01.25 12:53:00 - [3] Any interceptor with overdrives and so on will be good, but the best thing is to put on a 1mn MWD and place that in the F1 position and jam down your F1 key with a pair of scissors or something. Meet the Family
Miranda Ceres	Posted - 2008.01.25 13:08:00 - [4] Ares is the best T2 shuttle around

Rgr that, a pen top works best for me but i'll only do it in my crane or an interceptor!

Kye Do'lan Gallente The Whitesands Consortium	Posted - 2008.01.25 14:18:00 - [9] Originally by: Raekone It's only with certain keyboards that works. 20 jumps < 10 mins......works ok with me My Skills
Agif Templar Republic R0ADKILL	Posted - 2008.01.25 15:01:00 - [10] Pen lid = WIN I afk'd a few gate camps in my inty before now --------------- EvEmissions - Level 5 Missions - Updated 22/01/08

Siltan	Posted - 2008.01.25 17:18:00 - [11] Originally by: Agif Pen lid = WIN I afk'd a few gate camps in my inty before now I can just see the reimbursement request on one of those: "I only got killed becuase my penlid fell out of my keyboard!"
Derek Sigres	Posted - 2008.01.25 17:27:00 - [12] Originally by: Agif Pen lid = WIN I afk'd a few gate camps in my inty before now I once got killed in a gatecamp when I mistakenly fitted a Moa with a 100MN AB (it was fit solely to travel, thus I didn't notice that almost all of my grid and CPU was gone). Even with Instas installed it was taking 15 seconds to align. I didn't even notice at first, until I realized my ship was accellerating like garbage and had a top speed dramatically above what I was expecting.
Trevor Warps	Posted - 2008.01.25 18:48:00 - [13] Everybody that sticks something on the F1 key to do afk jump fasters should be banned for causing useless strain on the servers. How many commands per minute do you think your comp sends to the server ? Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD .... Besides that ... any 4 slots inty with overdrives, or maybe 3 and 1 inertia stab for the aligns plus static speed bonus rigs would be the best ... but not worth spending that much isk imo

demonfurbie Minmatar Covert-Nexus Blue Sun Trust	Posted - 2008.01.25 19:26:00 - [17] firetail with 3 overdrives and 3 thruster rigs and the f1 stuck
350125GO White Nova Industries	Posted - 2008.01.25 20:09:00 - [18] Originally by: Adril Alatar Cheetah with 2 Warp Speed Rigs and 3 Overdrives II I agree with Adril here, i was going 40 jumps to pick up a bpo and checked my ships to see what would get me there fastest. Cheetah had a warp speed of 13.9, almost twice as fast as anything else in my hangar. Since i wasn't afk and warping to 0, speed didn't matter as much as warp speed, but surely when afk traveling you should still take warp speed into consideration.
Xaen Caldari Black Podding	Posted - 2008.01.25 20:24:00 - [19] Gallente Shuttle II Mine is actually named that, and here's how I AFK roll in it: Istabs & Overdrives in the lows MWD on the F1 slot (as someone above mentioned) Heavy stuff on the F1 key. Yes, I know it goes overkill-fast for the dash to the gate, but it actually only bounces off a 10-25% of the time before jumping. And even when it does, it only costs a few seconds. Afterburner might actually work better, but I doubt it. Crappier MWD almost certainly would, but I half-assed use it for a real interceptor sometimes, so it's fully T2'd out (except for rigs of course). For long term AFK runs, you want align speed, 2-4km/s sub-warp speed, and warp speed (Ares is 13.5 AU/s). -- Support fixing the EVE UI \| Suggest Jita fixes

It's a stupid, arbitrary limitation that players will only ever try to work around. The developers that caused players to want/need to should be banned for putting such a useless strain on the servers. -- Support fixing the EVE UI \| Suggest Jita fixes

Izumi Mayu United Freelancers Organization	Posted - 2008.01.25 20:54:00 - [21] Originally by: Trevor Warps Everybody that sticks something on the F1 key to do afk jump fasters should be banned for causing useless strain on the servers.

Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD-Activate MWD-Desactivate MWD .... Or maybe it doesn't work that way and the commands are actually filtered out by the client before being passed on to the server. I.e., the module won't deactivate before it's finished its cycle. The client hasn't received a response back from the server acknowledging the finish of the cycle so it prevents any of those extra commands from being sent. ============================= Don't hold strong opinions about things you don't understand.
Alekzander Caldari Shady Buisness	Posted - 2008.01.25 22:40:00 - [22] Personally I use a raptor with overdrives, and a t2 ab, it already warps at 13.5 au/s so its dang fast.

Any programmer with an IQ of > 1 knows basic lag-prevention methods like these, so let's assume the EVE programmers do too.
Daddy Xerox	Posted - 2008.01.26 13:36:00 - [26] Amazing... I've found that the best point to point afk ship is a Crusader w/ 5x Overdrive II, Nav 5, and no rigs = about 975m/s. With a few rigs that can easily top out over 1200m/s without any AB/MWD. Add in some snakes and you really zip along. A simple AB and jimmied F1 key = 3+k/s, and never any bouncing. The only dangers I've run into AFK moving are instalock Huginn/Rapier. Generally still make the gate before getting into hull.
