Yeah, its just cheaper to use a cap stable oracle with T1 multicrystals on a dead stick if you are planning on going afk. Just in case they actually plan on defending the dead stick, I mean you are AFK anyways, so does it really matter if it takes another episode of your favorite TV show to pop?

it still has the impact of destroying 100 mill to 1 bill worth of isk possibly stealing some items depending on the tower they used some do use faction towers in high sec even lol so there is some impact still if they return to see their isk was destroyed.

There will be zero reason to shoot a citadel in HS and LS. You can put the darn things anywhere, so you won't be strapped for moons. They don't drop loot - so why go through all the effort to knock over a citadel that gives you nothing.

Look at eve now and look at this thread. There are probably trillions of isk worth of mods around all the dead sticks in empire. All you have to do is war dec and oracle the dead sticks to get all that loot. No one does it, because it's a waste of their time. Boring hours of bashing a dead stick for a few modules. In HS if you dec an active corp for citadel fights - the war dec assist mechanism will stifle all but the largest corps.

What sorcery would motivate someone to go through all the entosis hoo haw for zero loot in the end? The only value in a citadel will be it's construction cost and that will only be realized in damages done on paper - not in value gained by the attacker. Eve will soon be littered w/ vacated citadels.

Citadel combat will be 1 or possibly several campaigns by the goons to stomp them for the luls and the headlines. Once they master HS citadel removal, the experiment will be over and they too will move on.

For symantics sake I'll say abaondoned citadels instead of dead citadels, but I think we mean the same thing.

For dead sticks - war dec and bash them while you can!

when i was in a corp taking a chillax break that war dec'd the corps with dead pos in high sec and used afk oracle alts to kill them we received quite a few mails when they came back pissed off raging about their lost tower. at least half of them came back and raged give or take. so definitely not wishing for your fetish of magic space fairies :P sure this may not be the average but there is a fair bit of this happening of course you cant expect it but we turned a profit for every afk tower kill and it didnt take long with 50 oracle alts afk.
