YOU CANNOT USE CAPITAL SHIPS IN HIGHSEC

THAT IS ALL.
Depends on your definition of use, as I have no problem at all using my caps in high-sec.

hi ok, so I've been doing some research

POS in hisec is possible?
what'ss ccp stance on hisec caps, or does it rely on usage?


If you didn't know that capitals (with the exception of the orca and (jump)freighters) are bound to low-sec/null/WH. You don't belong to have one.

Nice grammar, and why not, if they have the isk to buy one why shouldn't they own one?


Because any pilot who wants a capital usually did some research and already knows that they can't be used in high-sec.

With this question I can only imagine the second the OP finds out a carrier can't use normal gates and gets ganked on it.
So? their lighter wallet and vacant hangar will be all the explanation they need.


Nope, just common sense and actually effort to search things.

I know before I flew any of my ships I looked up as much info as I could. And any info you look up on capitals (Carriers, Rorquals, Dreadnoughts, and the big stuff) it clearly states it's < 0.5 only.

And if someone flies one of these ships il-equipped with knowledge, that's their problem, and completely up to them. How does it affect you if a nyx turns up at a jump gate trying to jump into high sec?

If brute force isn't working, you're just not using enough.

Please Note: Any advice given comes with the caveat that nothing will be suitable for every situation.

A lot.

I have to quickly grab a HIC with scripted point.
Then point the Nyx and in the mean while make some batphones.

All of that is hard work.

I mistakenly jumped my freighter into low sec. Those 13km back to gate with the big whale formed thing were the longest in game so far. And (jump)freighters are the only caps you can buy that are allowed in both high and low sec.
