try using punctuation and/or whitespace sometime!

also capitals in hisec would be insanely dumb


How about capitalize the first word of a sentence and maybe a period at the end of it?

This applies, by the way, to both the student and his self appointed teacher.

How many battleships you need to take down 360 million ehp tower?

All must be fitted with lasers and sentry drones, only practical way.

I doubt that anyone would want to start taking down those large POS's with just battleships.

24 hour war declaration timer allows defender to switch POS fitting.

My Alliance Leader did it all the time in Null 5 years ago. 150 BS's takes about 2-3 hours depending.

People want EVE too easy now.

He lives in high-sec probably. That would mean he didn't have any access to capitals.

Guess that POS isn't so important to you after all.

Yeah.

Boring really isn´t the same as hard. And by some odd reason, some bittervets think so.

Hard would be that you fear to lose your ship while shooting at POS.

Boring is that you just shoot it untill it breaks down.

I would agree with "no large POS in highsec" at least, but I don't know why you'd ask for restrictions on lowsec.
Dreads work perfectly fine there.

Large POSs are easily attacked and removed. Utilize a 40 man fleet of proper, heavy logi comp.

2. make friends in Eve who can also fly them.
3. Wardec target.
4. get thermos of coffee, energy drink or booze and siege POS.
5. Watch POS explode and procede to loot modules.
6. Realize how foolish your whinning sounded and go about spending newly aquired loot.

If enjoyable, rinse and repeat.

Disclaimer: As someone who used to live in hisec and have their POS's reduced to wreckage I have seen first hand that it is more than doable. Welcome to the wonderful world of structure bashing. I believe the torp raven was a favorite weapon of those I ran afoul of.


Hmm.. might be an issue now as a Torp Ravens range is severely reduced. I think last I checked you needed Cruise on a Raven just to hit the Tower through the shields. Might just have been my skills, but you'd be nosed up against it anyway.

Stealth Bombers seem to be very common though.

Well, if nothing else it would boost Lowsec, but I assure you there will be a lot of people that have issue with it. Plus side is that it is easily explainable, but on the other hand there has to be a way of removing the existing towers too. I don't mean having dozens of people shooting them all day from system to system to clean up either.

They take them down in Ammatar all the time. I don't see what the big deal is here except the OP CryCryCry

Seriously, if you don't like that empty POS at your high sec moon, Man- AND Corp- UP, and BLAST it down yourself with a Wardec.

That's what you guys are all about anyway......or so I thought.

Where do you get 150 guys in amarr battleships for 3 hours? In highsec that is.

I find it bad for the game that we have safe havens for research alt corporations in highsec. Large POS´s are practically safe there, fielding thousands of research labs. Now that really is too easy for researchers.

If there were enough research/invention slots available, we wouldn't need highsec POS's at all.
