I noticed that Warp Disrupt Probes are nefred, and I really would like to know why (especially in light of all the other favors already done to carebears).

What I'm talking about is the lost ability to "suck" a warping ship beyond the gate (or other point/beacon), given the bubble is in-line, ofc.

Are we going to get something in trade, such as automatic decloaking of all cloaked ships hitting the sphere?

EDIT:
On further testing, while no attempt to make "suck" action to work were successful, it was also noted that numerous times ships just warp through the bubble, when it's between gates. (yes, I know about when it has to be launched and all that, I know what I am doing...)

From what i remember edge of bubble must be 100km from "warpin" point for sukage to work. So if you put bubble 100km from gate it wont work (edge is 120 then). Try putting it 50km in front and 50km behind gate and check results.

---

Currently in TQ, any distance within grid will work. Doing it all the time :) Only the precision of alignment becomes harder to manage when distances grow.

SiSi test included having the buble mere 40km behind the gate, having the edge 20km behind the gate. No joy.

Probably only a bug.

If not, worst decision ever to affect 0.0.

Which is also why i think it's just a temporary thing..

---

besides i know for a fact that the suck action DOES work... try flying through tribute. theres a bubble on every other gate 60 k out :-P

mmm get a tackler now. CCP do nerf i win buttons so dont be surprised

---

Interdictor is a tackler, dummy

CCP should nerf your "I post" button

I have to disagree somewhat. Interdictors are not 'tacklers' per se unless you fit Warp Disrupt or Warp Scramble modules (mid slot) on them. Interdictors have a limited range of motion in that once the warp disrupt probe is placed it can not be moved. The Interdictor must place a new probe resulting in heavily limited 'tackling' abilities. I suppose that it is quite possible to place Stasis Webifiers on the Interdictor to allow for enhanced 'tackling' abilities but, in my opinion, it will never be a true 'tackler'.

Heavy Interdictors with no Warp Disrupt or Warp Scramble modules (mid sllot) are, I would consider, true 'tacklers' but they suffer from friendly fire effects in non-CONCORD space (and, to a lesser degree, in CONCORD space).

Ruoska, I play this game, and I like to be aware of its mechanics; it's a lot cheaper to fly if you don't lose ships often. I, in my experience with the game, have never seen a WDP snag a ship that far out, while I have seen them catch ships inside of 100km from their warp target. You wanted people to reply to your topic, and I'm relaying my experience, take it for what you will.
