I'm not sure if people are aware of this... It wasnt mentioned in the patch notes but if your flagged in ANYWAY shape or form in high sec your POD is also flagged for death.

Just felt id warn the denizens of the forums of this little detail that is slightly important and should have been in the patch notes.

I got a super awesome pod thanks to it!

Not believing that at all, not for one second.

Obviously a bug that needs reporting.....if true.

Pods are now fair game in HiSec if the pilot is flagged.

Didn't say anywhere pods were not fair game so i don't see an issue.

It must be a Criminal flag, not a Suspect Flag....so no. Not in any way shape or form.

Half of my pod kills were suspects... so eve begs to differ.

That's what we want, eh? Big smile

Definately not trying to discourage ganking at all.

So if you are flagged as a criminal, your POD is too? I don't really see the issue...

Criminal, LE, and Suspect are legal pod kills.

So, CCP, does having merely a Suspect Flag make one Pod-able in High Sec.

I find that hard to believe, and a HUGE deal would have been made about it recently...............

Overall, great changes!

A few questions though:

- how is the transporting of illegal goods handled?
- Pods, are they legal targets if the player is criminal, suspect, LE flagged?
- criminally flagged pod cannot initiate warp?

Unchanged
Yes
Criminal pods are excepted from the "can't dock/warp in high-sec" restriction

Am I to read this that Suspect, LE, and Criminal players will ALL have legally-shootable pods (in the case of LE, to the players involved)?

Yes. So far we've not seen a good reason why it should be any other way.
