No, not fun. But useful having BC pirates available in most high-sec systems, helps security status recovery a fair bit. But I won't ever complete bronze :P

get out of hisec



Yes. I've done the whole "get out of high sec" thing for over a year. Was just curious as to what others thought. I tend to be more of a loner when it comes to Eve. Not looking for rewards for playing the social game. I think there's probably a large number of potential new players out there who feel the same. But I know Eve can't be both. Sad

Just point to the place on the ship doll where the bad Eve man touched you.

I appreciate the events that CCP has come out with however the Serpentis event is now my least favorite. I love EVE because it is NOT a grind. If I wanted GRIND there are much better games out there for it.

It's ok though, knowing this is what is available I feel I am not missing anything by NOT logging on everyday.


I mean, I'm not trying to defend the event itself but "EVE ... is NOT a grind"? Are you kidding?

Incursions, ratting, L4 mission running, FW missions, mining... making ISK is pretty much ALL grind in this game.

Not if you enjoy what your are doing. This event is not enjoyable to me. Pity. I liked the earlier events.

All I can say is.

Remove this crap from wormhole space. Completely immersion breaking to have the angel and serpentis installations suddenly appearing all over wormhole space.

Its stupid content that doesnt make any sense in wormholes.

Don't take drones to Angel Cartel sites. They get chewed up quick.

The angels are sooooooooooooo slow, and encounters that are mostly angels have no loot, and thus no reason to not setup at range. Just blap them with sentries.

As this character is basically sentry dedicated, I also do the shipyard+research with sentries, it took a few goes to perfect a routine for it, but now the main overhead is flying back to the sentries after the lootbox opens, and you can just kill another ship for more bounties as you fly back, its not pure overhead.
