As I haven't got round to grinding the rep for jump clones I spend a lot of time travelling from one empire to the other.

What would people suggest would be the fastest ship to complete these ~20 jump trips in.

Thanks

That depends a lot on why you are traveling all over the universe.

Also, are you doing these trips AFK?

CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

1. Train info morph psych
2. Use jump clone service. There is a guy WH does it near jita with his rorqual so you don't need to switch corps. I forget the name but it's in the sell forums.

I ground up status on my first toon, but with all the new services now I haven't bothered on the rest.

To the left click the link where it says "How to get free jumpclones"

But how does a player provide jump clone services in high sec, I thought it was a npc thing, excpect in lower sec where some capitals have special abilities....

Join a corp like "Estel Arador Corp " and fly around making your jump clones. Then leave the corp. They have stations all over the place with enough rep to do it. Once you make a jump clone you don' t ever need standing again to make it. Kind of a lame game mechanic really.

Upon reading the link, you would have discovered that particular corporation has grinded Mission agent standings for just about every NPC corporation in Empire. They allow anyone to enter their corporation free of charge, so you can install as many jumpclones as you like (benefiting from their corporatewide standings)


Once you have a jumpclone you have it forever, unless you physically destroy it inside of a station.



You then leave that corporation and rejoin whatever one that you came from. Many people install two or three in one shot. If you are the CEO of your corporation, use an alt as a place holder until you are done.

If I wasn't so busy and the whole thing so TLDR perhaps I would, but thanks for the synopsis Big smile

/edit I'll look into the sevice thanks everyone, I'd still be interested to know what people reckon is the nippiest little presonal transport though, it'd still be useful for smaller trips

Ok lets put it this way

It's all about align speed, time to warp , and warp speed

Now, for time to warp is a bigger speed actually better because it's 0-x% accelaration I want really, how do you increase accel ?

Also is there mods to influence warp travel if so are they worth it. ?

You want an interceptor. Probably the Stiletto. Something like this:

Nanofiber Internal Structure II

Inertia Stabilizers II

1MN MicroWarpdrive II

[empty high slot]

Small Hyperspatial Velocity Optimizer I

Warp speed is 19.4 AU. Warps in 2.1 seconds.

Nanoed Vigil with a passive shield tank. That's what was suggested last time this came up

Can switch the passive tank and nanos for agility and regular resists and a DCU2 if you're actually going to be paying attention and not afk autopiloting.

Hoping security won't be an issue but I figure I could probably throw a stabaliser on and they'll struggle to jam me anyway , so if they tackle me there doing me a favour as I'll warp out quicker.

Interceptor with the lows full of overdrive injectors, since you'll be spending most of your time slow-boating the 15km to the jump gate. Warp speed isn't that big of a deal due to long acceleration/deceleration times.

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.
