The old ratting for sec status, the bane of staying the right side of an outlaw in low sec life, no longer works like it should.

I havnt done it for a while and i tryed today got lucky 3 systems in a row and got 3 bs in each system within 15 minutes, when the gain tick came in after 20 mins, it was only one BS worth.

When did this stop working?

I asked some people and they say that they heard it stopped working a while back?

What the hell ccp, its a total pain in the arse to get sec back in low sec as it is and now its even harder.

CCP hates fw as much as it hates low sec dwellers.

sigh

Repent your evil ways and it will no longer be a issue.

My evil ways are neither here nor there, im not a podding machine and have a boarder line -5, currently the time it takes to repair one ship aggro and kill is HOURS of finidng BS killing one and SITTING ON ASS FOR 20 MINS before another rat makes any significant difference.

Also probing for sites with rats in give next to zero sec gain too, which sucks.

Low sec isnt high sec CCP, reduce the penelties for crimes and increase the ways to repiar it.

-10.0 who wanted to go straight would take more game hours than i can comprehend

I think I only heard of people being in fleets doing that or so had problems nothing more.

As stated before me shouldnt take much more then some healthy repenting to clear it up, or if that fails a long bath in holy water.

Instead of wasting HOURS trying to find a b/s,
just waste MINUTES of finding a few mission runners in a 0.5 ...

Much less hassle, adequate gain.

I worked last week as I took two bombers out to null and shot the same rats with both while fleeted and bounced systems long enough to get my standings back in check. Both chars revived the same gains for each system, with exception of 1 or two times when the 2nd char didn't get an increase.

its delayed a little once u done with the first 20min tic or so, u will notice u will get a tic for each system(I killed a bs rat every 4-5min it seemed)

basicly ending up looking like this

00.00 started ratting
00.15 first sec hit
00.20 sec hit
00.25 sec hit
00.30 sec hit


and so on, this was 2 weeks ago so I doubt they changed it around. clue is to just kill 1 bs rat pr system and move around a chain of 5-6 systems. Im not sure if jumping back and forth between system a and b constantly works.

Looks like you'll just have to move to a more reasonable type of space. IE anywhere other than lowsec.

I sent Concord an ingame mail. They said you can come back to high sec now. They won't shoot you anymore.

well i have a petition in to find out, but since they are backed up i thought id get a discussion here too.

Ive killed a few more tonight and there seems to be no way to get more than one gain per 20 mins, than one BS and in some cases less than a BS even having killed a BS....


lets see what they say when i hear back

That is the way to do it, if you only use 3 systems it will require waiting for the tick to happen.

Once you get going you will figure out for which system each tick is for and just stay at that pace.

Problem solved.

You only get the sec boost every 20 mins irrelivant of system BUT ONLY IF YOU HIT IT LAST.

gang shared sec means nothing, last hitter is the only one to get the boost.

gm confirmed.

when the fudge did that happen?!
