Also got podded with a full six-pack of Slave implants (the real ones, not low-grade), and 5 (percent) or 6 (percent) implants in the other four slots.
Of course the podding cost of 2.8B ISK isn't much compared to the 33.5B ISK ship kill. Please support: export of settings in editable format

Note the kill (including pod) are now marked as verified.

One T2 rig to reduce CPU usage of guns, 2 rigs to improve PG. None of which are needed if you got decent skills.
For 33 billion he could have bought a decent toon.
The pod's non-Slave implants were also fitting-related.
I've not flown Megathron-based ships (or used hybrid weapons) so won't comment on the fit. The prices are just plan nuts to me, but that's because I'm a spendthrift after my time in SL.
I may have come here from Myst Online, but that does not make me any less bloodthirsty than the average Eve player.
Just more subtle.

If your definition of dangerous or difficult is worlds collide I strongly recommend you warp into the last room of the blood 10/10. Or take your mission ship for a stroll through fountain, whichever takes your fancy.

while you are moaning about missions. try the worlds collide amarr style. You hit the gate wrong and you agro everything in the room and you are double webbed and scrammed and the DPS was enough to break the tank on 4 mission fit hardeners with two faction fit reppers.
Still not as hard as the last room on a 10/10 or wandering around a SOV system shouting your location and that the SOV holders may infact be homosexual into local. Standing in for Karn Dulake who was banned for saying bad words |

I want to pose serious questions:
Was it ever the intent of the game designers for such a pimped ship to ever exist?
Was it the intent of the game design for there to be so many officer modules existing or is this a product if botting?
Is this the "only way" or an end game in ship fittings, to have such a shiney ship? How much better than an all Tech 2 layout is this in tanking and DPS?
Is the advantage of such a shiny pimp fit so much greater than a all T2 setup to justify the cost or is the cost of the modules due to a high market demand and if the latter, is this because or rarity or is it the ISK payout of incursions coupled with the demand for "VG blitzing" fittings for said incursions?
I am wondering about this because even if I could fit such a ship, I cannot think of a reason to really want to unless I was an alliance overlord and wanted to make a statement with this setup as a "Flag Ship" - but would only do so with the best logistical and tactical support! |

I'm with Herzog here. I can't fanthom a reason or place where such investment actually starts paying off... For the cost of his ship, I could probably buy a few hundred PvE fitted ravens(basic T2 gear) as that's what I fly in missions, never got issues with it and kills stuff, not as fast as a good missionship, but gets the job done.
That much expensive stuff on a ship is just screaming to get ganked tbh. |

Eh. Who cares? The idiot bought it, flew it, and lost it. Someone got really happy with the drop. The rest of us got a nice moment of schadenfreude.

My questions are serious. I don't care about how people feel.
My problem with that now dead ship is, after 35 billion ISK, it's still a battle ship and a destructable battle ship. Why even bother in the first place?
It's like a Porche that occasionally turns up in the parking lot next to where I work, it's a 160 thousand dollar car, but I can't help but think "after all that money, it's still just a car".

None of us are really moaning about missions, personally I think they're fine. Stupidly easy but not too high profit, and they're nice for newbies. But whatever ship you're flying your tank shouldn't really be taxed in the slightest, if it is you're doing something horribly wrong.
Only people who should be having issues tanking level fours are new players who haven't trained most of their support skills or learnt to fit a ship properly yet.

Reasonable analysys, EFT-warrioring, careful reading and processing mission info, buying "the most cheap" stuff over the universe? I agree with you in principle, but there comes a point where spending more on a ship simply doesn't give you a reasonable performance increase. In fact past a certain point it starts to degrade performance because you cannot be as reckless with the ship.
Either way, I doubt this player was aware of the dangers of flying such an expensive ship. By the looks of the fit he just bought a lot of plex or RMT, and he certainly didn't EFT that thing.

Just for fun. You know it's funny: Nyx starts to need its primary tank (armor) only after 3-4 horde in a row. Passive shield amount and regen is simply toooooo strong
I used to run 10/10 escalations with my Tengu(4-5 billions in stuff) + Machariel (2-3 billions) + Nightmare (1-2 billions). Was i needing all those ISKies? Nope. At all. I just made fit which fits into my tasks and used it. Many times i wanted to check if i can replace something in tengu (Gist-X type fitted tank) to make it less expensive. But.... Every time it is too lazy to try and risk.

There is no good answer to that.
The answer I use, when I slam up against an existential moment like that is: "It just is." The universe doesn't need to make sense - It's just what it is. Likewise, EVE doesn't need to make sense - It just is. |

Sometime ISKies aren't so important...... Yeah, I ran a few sanctums/havens in a Wyvern once. Rats didn't even break the passive recharge :D Was ridiculously boring though, I ended up giving up anomalies and just doing exploration purely because I couldn't sit down and do them for more than an hour at a time.
Anomalies and dead space sites differ somewhat to mission running though, if you've got any sense you'll be running anomalies in a system that doesn't have any blues you don't know in and dead space... well, it's gated. It isn't hard to stick an alt on the gate. Running around high sec in a 36 billion ISK ship with an active wardec however, that kind of stupidity isn't even in the same league as sticking a bit of x-type on your plexing fits
Besides, 5 or 6 billion isn't a great amount. Hell, you can make a billion or more clearing a single c3 if you take the time to find a decent one. And if you're in a decent alliance that controls an entire region you can earn 5-6b in a day pretty easily with exploration, just by systematically scanning, jumping in ships and blitzing sites.
In comparison 36 billion ISK on a ship means that if you ever do lose the ship, it probably isn't going to have paid for itself. Especially not if you were using it to run level fours.
