Ok I dont want to sound ungrateful or anything like that but I will be honest I was hoping for the new SOE battle ship Nestor but I guess a 20AU warping shuttle has its uses for flying around empire and such.

So in the long run thanks ccp and happy holidays to all!

pfff, they aren't even done designing the Nestor, it's not 1.1 out yet is it? Then it's not even in-game yet, I'm not even sure if it's on SiSi yet.

Besides, CCP would never give us something as big as a ship that's worth about a billion. They also only give ships away that can be flown by newbs so the Gnosis as about as big as we're gonna get...

Been playing for a long time (8+ years) and can't remember any Christmas gift that beats this shuttle in initial value Shocked. I guess it's still early. But cheapest I could find was 35 mil. Would love to horde a couple of these. Don't think it will be possible to do for a reasonable price.

Full set of ascendancy implants pushes top speed over 30 AU/s.

The shuttle is a fantastic gift imo.

When MatrixSkye and I agree on something, you know something very odd has happened. P

This thing could be worth 5 isk and I'd think it was fantastic.

Well, even a broken clock is right twice a day P. So I guess I can be right one more time today.

Edit: And scratch off 35 mil. Cheapest is 55 mil, Jita price. Dang... Was planning on hording these Sad.

As I see it, This gift might just be the best promotional campaign EVE devs have ever done. After taking a ride in my shuttle I now see the true value of advanced warp speed whereas before I was like..."ascendancy, ..er Ghost sites....meh."

Did the Amarr - Jita - Amarr run in 10min 40 seconds including docking and undocking. It's pretty epic.

I for one am happy with the one off never to be seen again and will never be made by players gifts. The others I sold for ISKies or got promptly blown up. ^^

The Gnosis was still my favorite one thou.
