Bellum Eternus Death of Virtue Sex Panthers	Posted - 2008.03.18 03:19:00 - [5] Lol @ all the back and forth in this thread. Some hard and fast rules about killing mission runners: 1. BMs are critical. The more BMs you can get off plain and away from celestials, the better. Do anything you can to secure BMs of this sort, including running L1/L2 missions in a target system. 2. Quest (and other exploration) probes are always preferable to recon probes. Always. If it is at all possible to get within range to use them, do so. Otherwise you're stuck using recon probes. 3. Recon probes do have their uses, but Quest probes should be your primary tool. Always carry a good supply of both types of probes, and one type of launcher fit and the other in your hold. 4. Every little bonus helps. I've missed plenty of targets because I was five seconds late getting into the mission. Make a dedicated prober and train every single related skill to five. Implants are critical. Again, every bonus, no matter how small, makes a difference. My probe launcher has a probe scan time of 82 seconds. That's the max in game until they come out with something more. If I can get within range to use Quest probes, I usually have a pretty good chance of a hit on the first try, luck permitting. When using recon probes (snoops) that last 5 minutes each, I generally go through 4-5 of them with zero results at the same range or less, and even if I do get a result, it's usually too late and the target leaves the system. There are all kinds of techniques for getting really close to a mission to drop a probe, none of which I'm inclined to share with the forums. But two things always matter: range and probe strength. Get creative getting close, and don't bother using recon probes unless there is absolutely no other choice. Bellum Eternus [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y I I
Bellum Eternus Death of Virtue Sex Panthers	Posted - 2008.03.18 07:08:00 - [6] Originally by: doctorstupid2 Originally by: Bad Brown Full Sisters virtue set + 5% Prospector scan time and 5% Prospector probe strength hardwirings, Scan probes are for people that just donÆt have the skills and kit. Recons are for the professionals. Mission busting is not just a job; itÆs a way of life. bell, refresh my memory, how long have we been doing this now? guess we just don't have the skills and kit, we fail go back to your sandbox. Clearly he doesn't know wtf he's talking about. Bellum Eternus [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y I I
Bellum Eternus Death of Virtue Sex Panthers	Posted - 2008.03.18 19:54:00 - [7] Originally by: General Coochie Edited by: General Coochie on 18/03/2008 18:50:57 Originally by: Lurana Jade Morons still mission in Low? Then they deserve what they get, kill moar plse. Thing is any moron could figure out how to avoid being ganked in a mission in low sec. So not seing more ppl missioning in low sec tells us something about most bears missioning in high sec doesn't it? If I would ever start doing missions (very unlikely) I would do them in low sec, and I would never get ganked I can tell you that. If you know how to avoid a mission prober, there is absolutely no way he can get you. Its actually way to easy. This. I know a lot about killing mission runners. Conversely, I never ever get killed by pirates when I run missions in low sec, and I never fail to complete my mission in a timely and convenient manner. It's not difficult.

Bellum Eternus Death of Virtue Sex Panthers	Posted - 2008.03.18 23:52:00 - [8] Originally by: doctorstupid2 Bellum and I, on the other hand, adhere to a more strict "work a system until they just stop undocking" method... If you work it right you can collect a "not griefing you in the face" tax for every day you don't smash their fuzzy little ships apart. Fun to see al the myths and misconceptions about probing that are around these days, though. Ahhh, GOOD TIMES. Bellum Eternus [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y I I
Bellum Eternus Death of Virtue Sex Panthers	Posted - 2008.03.18 23:55:00 - [9] The really stupid thing is, I have some slick advanced techniques to catching mission runners with probes, and it took me forever to finally come up with the ideas, but I don't really want to post them all over the forums because then the ninny mission runners would know what I'm doing and it would reduce their effectiveness. Maybe one of these days I'll write a complete 'how to' if I ever get bored of killing carebears. Bellum Eternus [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y [Vid] L E G E N D A R Y I I
