EVE General Discussion

I am thinking of trying heavy interdictors out can you please point out the low sp way for me to try them out with out training the next 46 days to get into one?

Oh, that's easy. Buy a PLEX and sit in… oh… just about anything on the Jita undock while spamming “I'm carrying a PLEX” in local.

The speed and cost of your loss should be a good approximation of the HIC experience.

What? HIC's are the primary tackle in lowsec supercap battles, and remote sebo'd hics as primary tackle in gatecamps has been a thing for quite some time in both low and high (To deal with stabs).

It's a lot smaller than the advantage the new player has if he puts those small-hybrid SP into electronic warfare…

Same purpose as having attributes that can be re-mapped. I hope your not suggesting because something can be re-mapped or reset that it renders it useless?

That would silly to say even by your standards Tippia. (even just for arguments sake)

There are many reasons this may not be a good idea, but to imply resetting or re-map of SP makes skills or skill training useless is not one of them.

I can see both sides of the coin here. Some people would benefit from a SP reset . People who made poor training choices early in their eve history for certain.

Bitter Vets with 10 years training under their belt, not so much.

Either way would be interesting to see.

I haven't played since late 2007 so I don't even know what anything was called anymore. Rum helps.

Close, but not quite. There's a crucial difference between attributes and skills: you are not removing you attributes and replacing their effect with something completely different forwards and backwards in history.

If you'll allow some semantic drift for a second, attributes are a mechanism that turn time into SP, whereas skills are effects of that mechanism. Altering the mechanism after the fact does not alter the effect it has already had — only what effect it will have in the future. Altering the effects themselves, however, is akin to turning back time. At that point, the mechanism no longer has any real point because you can go back and get a different, “better”, result.

The entire mechanism is bypassed and the effects themselves become quite meaningless because they're only a result of the moment rather than of the entire decision-making and SP-gathering process that led you to the result.

It's not something I imply — it's something I state as a fact because it is a very obvious result of being able to reverse, alter, and remake decisions you've made in the past. Or, well… to be a bit more pedantic, it doesn't render them useleess — it renders them meaningless because they are infinitely mutable.

I wear my stupid skill choices as a badge of noob honor. Don't you try to take them away from me!

What if using this option also reset your learned skills to your noob character racial default, and you had to repurchase skill books? That could potentially make using your SP reset a costly decision, and could also be a nice ISK sink. This would also remove the abilty to have access to skills you shouldn't have because you no longer have the prereqs.

I'm curious how many people that think the OPs idea is terrible were also against training of multiple characters on the same account, but now think it's fine.

Sorry there is no difference in what you imply or what you state. Both are wrong. Resetting SP would not make them useless or meaningless just because you don’t agree with it or like the suggestion.

It may not be in the best interest of the game to do so, but not for the silly reason you (state).

I have read enough of your post and seen how you conduct yourself on the forums to know that you enjoy arguing and would never admit to being wrong.

I will not become ensnared or entangled in your foolishness. Do not look for me to continue to engage in your Trollish methods.
