It says that there are a lot of really bad people out there.


Dual Rep Incurses are probably a lot better outside of Lowsec plex duels where every brawl won't be up against a scram/web/AB fit frigate and you can do things like camp a drag bubble to pull random idiots into your engagement range in ships that do not want to be there at all.


tl;dr, they are good against bads. Yes, we know.

Well inside the drag bubble the tank won't really matter seeing how there always seems to be a falcon there jamming you.

(I'm sure there are parts of 0.0 where there isn't a falcon in every gang, i just havn't found it yet :P )

I don't think so. Falcons are so ubiquitous I actually thought they were required for bubbles to work properly. Yay for ECM, the most frustrating game mechanic.

Algorithm for dramatically improving eve:

1. Remove ECM from the game
2. Watch forums for players that complain
3. Biomass them

After you've been dealing with them for 5 years people in your gang dont even need to be told: The Falcon dies, no exceptions. It's like a curse... Always first to die.

Let's not pretend Griffin alts aren't a thing in lowsec now.

They seem to have died down a bit after people started realizing they were the Eve equivalent of taking a hooker to your school reunion.

The last time I got Falcon-dropped in lowsec the idiots were such bads they couldn't actually kill me even jammed. Ironically I think I was in a dualrep incursus at the time.

They really are not that common..

Also a Griffin is a lot easier to handle than a falcon :P
