So now we have super uber tags for sec thing going so i have like 4 Clone soldier trainer tags and i thought oh i can go and get sec up to -0,4. To my amusement and disappointment i could not swap them things to sec status.

Had them in item hangar and had sufficient isk dragged the sec bar left and right and nope could not swap em. Need some transporter tags

Why cant the damn tags give sec anyhow and some give more some less?


Im baffled

Each tag is for a specific sec status. Make sure you are applying the correct tag for your sec status.

That was kind of the point. It was never intended to be a way to make it easier to recover from sec loss — just a way to shift that work in time and space (and possibly offloading it completely to other people).

Yeah, screw reading and knowing what you're talking about, that's for those high sec pubbies. Just go rat.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Well, I would give it a go before just throwing in the towel.

This isn't directed at you in any way, but it seems that there are some players that come to the forums and complain about a feature that they don't fully understand. I don't have a sec status issue, but it is on my "to do" list to go to lowsec, do some ratting, get some tags and check out the mechanics of this feature.

Then I can have knowledge AND experience.

My grief is to the thing that you need specific tags to go from -10 to -8 and then specific tags to go more up

They all should give u some sec up no mater what sec under 0,0 u have


Say u need like 20 clone trainer tags to raise your sec say from any bad sec to better sec currently it does not matter how much of them you have if your sec is -2,4 in my case you need different tags and thats it.

And its plain ******** as lowest value aka trainer tags drop from 0,4 rest of them frop from even lower sec systems like transporters 0,3 etc.

Makes no sense whats so ever

Once again, they wish to promote people making a living (or at least supplemental income) obtaining and selling the tags.

Take the tags you did get and sell them.
Use that ISK (along with your own) and purchase the tags you need.

It's not brain surgery. Smile
