Too good a ship NOT to fly!


Exactly. At around 05h30 server time this morning I logged in, redeemed it and fit it for a quick fluff to an anom. Performed magnificently with a full shield tank and extenders, 5 T2 HM's, 3 T2 BCS, 1 DC (and even a T1 salvager). Takes a lot of damage and fires those missiles magnificently. With a T2 AB10 running, it averaged around 420m/s on orbitals (with a nano in lows).

Love it and will buy more. It just looks like the best sexy pixels for any BC in game.

Tonight I will try it out AR fitted and Rails, just for chuckles and giggles.

Thank you, CCP !

Gnosis kill


Well, i guess it will be other way there will be a lot of mad guys (including me) cause the period of "collect" was very short and on an unexpected TZ, i guess.

This really hurts my eyes. Instead of wasting it like this he could have given it to someone who can make use of this ship... or even sell it.

But this fitting...Ugh

Didn't know it was coming, but fully intended to try her out. I was in the market for a BC anyway. Sweet timing. Happy Birthday!

Thanks CCP... can't wait till I get my BPC as well.

Don't mistake fact for arrogance, supposition for fact, or disagreement for dismissal. Perception is unique in that it can be shared or singular. Run with the pack if you wish, but think for yourself. A sandwich can be a great motivator.

pretty much. everyone WILL gank it if they see one in space



Considering you'd have to spend several hundred mill for no good drops, i doubt it.

I for one will be fitting mine up for some exploration and taking it out tomorrow.

People gank for km's alone. People gank for fun. The Gnosis wont be an exception.




the fact that it is a 1 time ship alone will make asshat pirate players go around ganking them

Yeah, because the apotheosis, the echelon, the zephyr and the primae had been so much reseeded.

As annoying as it is to have ships reseeded, lets not forget that they're giving them out as a celebration, not so we can all get rich.

Seems to be plenty on non CCP Gnosis kills today, so for the moment it doesn't appear relegated to hangar ornament. Amamake in particular seems a popular place for testing them out.

the apotheosis was, in fact, reseeded. it was part of the Shirt & Ship PLEX deal a while back.

Wow, I know jack squat about ship balance, but this thing just seems like it would be the greatest thing ever for newbies. Omni Medium bonuses, massive Drone bonus, capable of fitting absolutely anything and zero prerequisites? Sure, dedicated BCs would probably do better than the Gnosis at any given role, but this thing completely convinced me to reactivate my alt.
