Btw this 'available to all' on the killrights, does this mean it's available to view and buy by anyone?

Edit: also now that sec hits are front loading, what kind of sec hit do you get when you destroy a ship? the full hit you now get when you 'gank' someone who doesn't fire back, or the 10~ smaller hit you get when they fire back at you?

Also
Quote:
The aggressor now has the option to retract a war that has been made mutual by the defender. This ends the war in 24 hours. The other option here was to give the aggressor a chance to accept or refuse making the war mutual, but we felt the retraction was a cleaner and simpler solution.


bye bye dec shield?

This is what's going to take killrights to the next level and you guys are heroes for getting it into Retribution.

Very interesting!

Is there any plans on making the bounty expire to prevent a general form of bounty griefing?

Also @ the activation of a kill right, if I activate it for everyone, will this mean I will get a "kill report" in my list if someone else kills him on my behalf?

Thank player feedback. They convinced us this had to happen now rather than in a point-release.

It was definitely needed now, rather than later.

Quick question: Do killrights assigned to corps or individuals have to be activated, or does that only apply to everyone killrights? I feel like it is a needless step to activate a killright assigned specifically to me or my corp before I start shooting.

CCP has no sense of humour.

  • Will cloaking immediately disable the micro jump drive?
  • Can a character wtih bounty placed on them be biomassed?

I can see automatic activation being a potential problem, since it would remove the ability to attack such target without activating a killright. There can be potential situations where you want to shoot at him, but don't want to waste a killright on him. With manual activation there can't be any such issues.

you won't get a kill report in your list, but you get a notification telling you that your kill right was used up by someone. and the kill report will say that the pilot was killed on your behalf.

Anyone in the Corp that it is assigned to can Activate the Kill Right. (Note that this is on the same grid in space with the player.)
Try assigning the Kill right to The Scope Blink

It is somewhere between the two. If you end up ganking to death about 50% of the targets you illegally aggress, you'll be roughly in a similar situation.

Uh-oh, combat Noctium everywhere! Twisted

Oh, and one more thing: you've added an overview category and tag for people you have killrights on, but how (if at all) do you display the reverse — people who have killrights on you? With the ability for anyone to pick up and activate any outstanding killrights you may have given to people, it would be nice if these lit up when this happened so you knew the chase was on.

on ASB's i think it is a bit OP for active tank not to have to use some cap otherwise its not very active is it?
I want my curse to be able to neut and TD every ship please Big smile
If only projectiles were neutable again :(... if all guns were neutable and missiles weren't maybe people would like missiles more and it would add more difference between the weapon systems.
Also what happened to merc contracts?

T3's need to be versatile so no rigs are necessary ... they should not have OP dps and tank

ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 HS for droneboats

Salvage drones - you specifically call out "your own wrecks". will this include fleet members or corp members as well. I know nuetral wrecks were mentioned too, but this sounds like a corner case that might get missed.

I'm glad to see you removed the multiplier from war costs, but I'm saddened to see you have yet again raised the base cost of declaring war. I strongly believe we need to reduce the minimum cost of war declarations; hisec warfare is such an excellent introductory arena for aspiring PVPers, and the current costs are just so high.

I'm also very glad to see you got the killright availability limitation in there for the first iteration. Very slick.

P.S. XL Ancillary boosters had their duration increased from 4 to 5, not 5 to 4 /o\
