If reinforced, you can simply scoop them and then redeploy them immediately.

That's pretty funny. :)

I don't see the funny. Then again I can't see anything.

Awww....did that ebil station gamer scoop the depot you took all that time to reinforce to teach him a lesson?




Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Daresay it was meant to say that you could scoop your *own* re-enforced depot, then re-deploy. Not that someone could swipe your depot once they'd put it into re-enforce.

Which, if I read that correctly, means mechanic == broken.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

Immortal, indestructible depots littering all of New Eden... well, it's a good thing that the server has no history of lag or crashing due to having too many objects in one system, eh?

They need to be repped above 50% shield to be able to put back into a RF timer, so if they put them down again without having done that then they can be blown up in one go!

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

Or hack. Seriously, we have hacking modules and none of the deployable structures (not just the new ones) can be hacked.

I've used this before. Was flying through null doing exploration in my cloaky, non-nullified Tengu (I was using the subsystem for extra warp speed instead - combined with rigs it warps faster than an interceptor). I was carrying at least 500m (probably much more) in loot from doing exploration sites, along with my nullifier subsystem, some other mods, and a mobile depot. While traveling through one system I got complacent and landed in a bubble on top of some cans with an AF right next to me. Couldn't cloak in time and got tackled. I figured it was a long shot, but I decided to drop my mobile depot and if it and I both survived its 1 minute onlining timer I would dump all of my loot into the depot, ensuring its survival. My attackers did not choose to shoot the depot, instead continuing to fire on me. The depot came fully online and I dropped all of my loot into it. I later bought another Tengu (nullified this time), waited until they left system, and scooped the loot along with the now reinforced mobile depot.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Well now you did it. You just killed me, but fortunately I can still shitpoast from beyond. We have internet down here (no surprise really).

Thanks for the post. That's a very good reason to carry one around (if you think you can survive thethe minute).
