Hey everyone,

Real quick: If you've trained Battlecruisers V and Destroyers V, when Odyssey goes live

AttentionAttentionAttentionAttentionPLEASE. REMEMBER. TO. UPDATE. YOUR. CLONE.AttentionAttentionAttentionAttention


I know a lot of players have trained these skills, and will forget to update their clones, which will lead to much tears. And even though I like tears, I don't like SP-loss tears, because SP-loss is a stupid mechanic.

Thank you

Of course it will be 30% cheaper to upgrade your clone after Odyssey arrives.

EDIT: And make sure to queue a skill that will last a few days! You may not be able to login when you need to on or shortly after Odyssey release day.

Additionally, make sure that neither Destroyers nor Battlecruisers is the active skill in training at DT on Tuesday. If it is, your skill queue will be paused until you can log in and update the skill queue (which could easily be hours)

AFK miners, please make sure to forget to update your clones so you can get ganked and podded for maximum tears post-Odyssey!

I'm seriously considering blowing my sec status by popping random pods in trade hubs come Odyssey.

For three reasons.

One, to teach people to never fly autopiloting pods.
Two, for tears.
And three, because the forum rage over it might lead to the badly thought out SP loss mechanic being reassessed.

DT is hitting early, it's in 50 minutes (3am CST) instead of it's normal 11am GMT (6 AM CST). Don't forget what others have said, set a LONG skill and NOT Destroyer or Battlecruiser.
