EVE General Discussion

I was just noticing that in game there are a few options for what someone calls an "infinite point" where as it has strength of up to 99 and basically makes it impossible to warp off. I think this is pretty dang awesome bonus, ship, and module.

My question is, is there a counter tactic? A ship or module that allows to be impossibly warp jammed? Maybe it has penalties too like zero targeting range or something to make it just an exploration ship.

If you have one tactic should there always be a counter? IS there one already you would like to share?

thank you for your time.

No.

No, but I would agree if you gave it a slow align time, no cargo of any kind, no drones and no hardpoints or rigs.

Wrong section of the forums and a terrible idea.

Thank you for taking time to respond to my questions. Some of you are just , well you :).

I don't consider the mwd or cloak to be a true counter. These are mods that go on any ship and do very little to counter the strength of the infinite point when its on and your say webbed.

I just thought for sake of comparing the two. Most things I have seen in this game have a counter or a way to work around it. I know "mwd, cloak" helps to AVOID the mechanic... Kind of wanted to know if there was something to counter the infinite point like a stabilizer, much like the infinite point.. limited use and ship.

Then i guess having someone jam, the said target using the infinite point would work.. still not in the way of a true counter. Then again it is a counter to the lock they need for the point.

Then i ask about bubbles, like ceptors do, but a mod that also avoids those 99 strength jamming,. I would be fine with no cargo or the cargo of shuttle etc.

no.

Infinite point is a script, as others have said, only used on a HIC. The more annoying tackle are the 5000 mm scan res ships that will grab you before you can cloak. Stick them and bubbles in a dozen systems and you effectively cut off all of null.

…at least until they release the jump drive inhibitor deployable that they have sitting around, unused, in the database.

I used to trespass all over nullsec in a Cyclone and did that with one ship for three years.

How?

Infinite WCS? No!

MWD? No!

Double my sub costs and get a scout? Hell No!

Join an alliance and use a JB network? No!


One simple rule: no gates, just wormholes.

Three years. The only time I saw a bubble or HIC was on D-scan.


This just goes to show that gates are the problem, not infinite point HICS or sebo'ed tacklers or OGB (a problem in it's own). However, since CCP addressed the imbalance of "tiny guns killing big ships in two seconds" and tanked up the indies, I hope to see a day when warp core strength becomes just as attached to the size of the hull as is warp speed. After all, if a large ship is sooooo heavy that it warps slower, then it's going to have one motherhumper of a warp core with lots of power, right? Meaning that a little frigate cannot muster the power to shut it down. The same goes for web. If I netted an elephant will I slow it down 60 percent or will the elephant speed me up 60 percent? (Hint: 2 plus 2 is not equal to 5).


These are simple things that would enrich the game. Also think of the ISK sink that battleships could become if people would use them.

How fast were you moving before?
The former result is far more likely than the latter result, tbh.

Ships aren't ISK sinks, though.
