... for them to retaliate on capsulers, and take their sov?

Ever think that maybe we'll be able to dock in them?

They are large enough to hold super capitals and Titans.

And also, ever think that the drifter super weapon maybe equip able on our own battleships?

Carriers, supers, titans, getting hit for 200,000 Omni damage in one shot. By a single disposable battleship... Hmmm....


Food for thought.

Yaay!!!!

Food for thought.

Moment CCP will allow to dock supers in a station will be next step to making eve stagnant.
Try to kill carrier fleet sitting and repping station on undock. Now try to do the same for a super.

Super movement simplified!
No issues with trading.
... and more.

Eve must go away from supers and capitals not more into them.

Still the question stay :
- drifters offer no bounty
- don't drop any stuff
- don't provide any salvage
- don't do any thing as long as you ignore them

When the real action start?

Well, funny thing is at the moment - it's the Drifters killing us, not the other way around.
Not to mention the fact that you can barely kill one Drifter BS - you want to kill their stations (although it is highly debated if they are THEIR stations) ?

Also, as an exercise in imagination - what if they have something bigger than a battleship at their disposal also ?

There is no reason to kill Drifters now.
It is like to shoot a hauler in higsec (the NPC one).


Hint.
Drifters are easy to kill, very easy.
Full dps Phoenix can easily have 4-5mil ehp, missiles do not miss, and have tons of alpha damage.
Webbing and painting ship also help.

If you alpha them , there will be no time to use this sub capital dooms day.

Those are not stations but dormant battle fortreses.

Run you fools.

How is killing battleships with dreads defined as easy ? It smells more like "we gonna throw holy-hell on these guys because there's simply no other way, everything else we tried got our asses handed to us". And that's not the definition of"easy".

It would have been "easy" if you took your battleship and went "mano-a-mano" with it and came out barely dented.

I like the idea of supers and titans being able to dock. I think its long overdue.. I don't care about the whines against it.. im sick of the oppression some rather force on everyone that perhaps want to invest in one.


im all for allowing those classes to be able to dock..

screw the drifters.. tell em to BRING IT..

i'll just batphone my jovi-mothership from next door


Now what!

If ccp allows supers and Titans to dock, that will be the beginning of the end of Eve.

Nothing like that one guy who has 55 supers across his 55 accounts now have the ability to buy even more supers to dock.

There is somewhere in the realm of 10,000 supers. Any station that had even 5% of that is unsiegeable.

Producers could literally make endless supers and dock them a station, be immune to attack, and be impossible to stop. On top of that, contracts of supers everywhere.

Yaay!!!!

Last time I shot a Drifter station I did 0 damage. How do you destroy them?

Why hurt them? They look cool.

capitol ships WILL be allowed to dock in drifter stations.

For some situations, to figure out what's really going on you have to ask yourself, "Qui bono?"

When CCP is involved, you have to ask, "Qui troll?"

CCP loves trolling us as much as we love playing this game. Drifters are going to turn out to be an epic troll for us. I'm not sure how yet, but I'm certain a lot of people aren't going to like it.

I honestly feel like I just read fifty shades of dumb. --CCP Falcon
