I feel like it is a Jinx to buy insurance on my PvP pilot ...

.. go out expecting to die ?
not me!

...well I do die ...cause we're looking for a fight and ...well sometimes those good fights are too good to be true..

But still.. you have to believe you'll win them all !

(on a more rational note... there are so many different kinds of fleets and "docs" that there is a pretty good chance that some of the 3 month periods would go by and the insurance lapse . Depends on whether it is a ship you take out all the time.)

I see insurance in a pvp ship as a sure investment, that ship in pvp have 99% chance of being blown up and you have 100% chance that if it does, ur investment will pay back extra isk, good deal, I pvp with something I can afford to lose, and win a little isk in end, is a win win situationBlink

Insurance is already fine. I think you get something like 3x T1 ships for the price of 2 with insurance, I can't remember exactly.

Oh god.

people that need an incentive that would make it easier to recoup losses, to aid them to do something that only makes sense if those loses can be inflicted on others, or would carry the risk of suffering them themselves, need to go back to wow.

this is eve and things have a price tag on them, that price is time, insurance is already a gross intervention on the Sandbox, if anything it should be removed completely.

i feel the biggest issue isnt the ships but pods alot of people love their +5s and +4s so dont seem to risk it as you cant get pod insurance

Most people who don't fight don't do it,
because losing hurts their self-worth.

Money isn't the issue. A sad lifs is.

If the cost of your ship is holding you back from PvP, you're basically an irredeemable publord like most of the members in CFC alliances.

Well everything (?) has a solution in EvE. I assume one can do like the pirates, and pick the fights one can win.
Start the career by killing criminal tagged pods in hisec...

If my pilot is certain to face death... I want full ramming speed towards the enemy ship...

why would you kill crimal pods? they have no implants... the other ones are full of joy and candy.
