Warfare & Tactics

1v1 does nothing
v5 not worth it
v10 meh still not really worth it
v50 now we're getting there
v100 useful
v500 things get interesting

tl;dr - need moar info

Doesn't seem aweful at all. Only really useful against big blobs it would seem, which... isn't so bad I guess. Better than a God-mode module proposal.

You mean the Anti-blob module? I can't wait to see the stats on that stupid thing considering ECM already exists.


1 V 1 10%
1 v 2 50%
1 v 3 100%

17 V 150 (all targeting primary) 100%
10 v 30 (all targeting primary) 100%
4 v 20 (all targeting primary) 100%....?


Very bad idea but please release this mod I will have tons of fun figuring out how to completely break stuff.

Yes, Since it can't be fit on Capital Ships this does look like a sort of Anti-Blobbing module. I can't wait to see the interesting things that can be done with this Mod.

What amuses me is that these new mods are being put in the game to break up the cookie cutter builds that 99.9% of Eve runs for PvP, but they are almost all chance based and probably not worth the actual slot it takes.


Hey CCP here is a better idea: Work on ship/race balancing. There is a reason people call it Winmatar and almost everyone has a Tengu alt.

This new contraption sounds like a fancy smancy run of the mill ecm burst.

I think this module sounds very interesting and has very great potential including self-balancing if well implemented.

From my perspective this module should work like this:
- less or equal to 3 ships targeting you: no effect.
- 4 to 13 ships targeting you: chance of all locks being dropped raises from 10% to 100%
- more than 13 ships targeting you: locks are always dropped.

What would this cause:
a) At the beginning maybe everyone would fit such a modul, just because blobbing is what we currently experience on a daily basis.
b) Once enough people fit this blobs get frustrated and will adapt by either reducing the blob size or by forming up wings which make sure that only a few people are aggresssing the enemy. Especialy for blob vs. blob fights it will get interesting, simply primary target calling will not result in the usual success.
c) The need for this module gets reduced because people are less blobbing or primary calling, so people start to drop this module.
d) Over some longer time we get a balance... too many blobs and people will use this module very often. Less blobs and people will drop this module.

Sound like a great time is comming for solo players!
Final comment: The penality on scan resolution should be not too high. Just reduce it by 20% or so.

your definition of a blob matches my definition of a small roaming gang^^

10 alpha ships like arty tornadoes/ mealstroms should be enough to wipe out most other ships other than perhaps a max tanked BS. In which case nothing would stop 2 squad commanders broadcasting the same targets O.o.

Having all 50 trying to lock and instapop the same BS is a bit wasteful since perhaps 20-30 will actually get to lock and fire before it pops leaving the other 20 waiting for the next target to be called = wasted DPS.

But anyway, it remains to be seen how this module will shake things up.

Just let me dream a bit... but in fact if you are solo or just with a friend then 10 man are a blob :-)

And by the way... 10 people taking a gainst even one enemy usually ends in a quick and boring death. Maybe CCP should make the module effectiveness depended on the size of the ship it is fitted to. Small ship means the "blob" will start and 10 and large ship means the "blob" will start at 30 or so.
