I think it would be rather hilarious is everyone simply boycotted this obviously scripted event, if only to laugh at CCP having to break out their own Polaris ships to down the Titan themselves because nobody else wanted to bother with it.

You need to allow bombers to drop bombs

Your about as much use as a condom dispenser in the Vatican.

Allow bubbles, allow bombs, allow caps, allow cynos, allow everything. Most of all allow 4000+ into system.

Do this, then do it in Jita.

Edit: Clarification, im not saying allow the cap of Jita to 4000, Im saying turn Jita into nullsec.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

So I'll need to drop my militia corp just to defend the Caldari titan? I can imagine getting blapsed pretty easily by the Navy with TiDi in effect.

Well looks like a good place to move some extra cheap hulls and a boatload of T1 Modules. Cool

Definitely has a chance of being a free fire zone, but if that happens, then all that we will get is a bunch of gate camps and it become just another brainless gank heaven.

That would be dumb. It's like meeting a hot woman and finding out her best trick is sticking pencils in her nose.


I am hoping that it's more of a matter of NPCs going hog wild, like an active Sansha live event where nobody is safe but your losses are your own, from your own mistakes (that you own) and not another dose of "aha BOOM headshot noobphag GBTWoW!!!! We so leet".


But if it's another e-peenfest, I'll just not make time to play (cause I got other things to do) and strike live events off the list as anything to care about. I already see the litterbox crowd wanting bombs and bubbles, drooling at the chance to turn it into their idea of the game, which is Jump into System, get blapped, The end. Yeah BFD you can keep that and if my only recourse is to stay off your killboard, that's exactly what I'll do.

(though there will be good exploration in lowsec if all of the losers are camping in Luminaire)

I think it's going to be a big clusterfuck of lag.

Ladies and gentlemen, observe the true winner of this event: The Industrialists!

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

162 gank thrashers ready to go. buy them up for just ~3M each in the package. Available on public contract now right there in Luminaire.

500M total.


Located in Luminaire III (Astrin) - Moon 1 - Duvolle Laboratories Factory

Set yourself up for ganking pods and frigates, or just a wolfpack of cheap arty dessies to take down cruisers and above. This is a very effective fit in lowsec for catching frigates and pods on gates. Should be alot of fun during the live event :)

1 x LOT of:
162 x Thrasher
1,134 x 280mm Howitzer Artillery I
486 x Sensor Booster I
486 x Scan Resolution Script
162 x Warp Disruptor I
324 x Gyrostabilizer I
100,000 x EMP S
100,000 x Phased Plasma S

Price for the LOT: 500M obo.
works out to 3.08M per fit thrasher. Ships are currently packaged for shipment. NOT PREFIT

you have enough to make all of them a triple-sebo for ultra-fast lock, or dual-sebo w/long point

No concord, cynos, bombs and bubbles permissible. Make it so CCP.

This would be even funnier since that would leave a whole bunch of capitals stuck afterwards and facpol on them all.

I like this idea, you have my apathy. Lol
Besides until there's a PC client for DUST - anything to do with it has zero interest.

Does anyone know what other solar systems are on the same node as Luminaire to avoid them as well by any chance ?

I hope ccp clustered some servers together, because a event like this with the only noticeable effect
is lag (or tidi its the same) the event would be called a FAIL. Like always they expect a lot of players,
but as always more are coming. But we will see, lets be positive!

War in Luminaire??

SAWEET!!

Sounds like a business opportunity to me. Time to get some production going, methinks.

I'll be moving some flammable assets there as soon as I log on this evening. Twisted


If you happen to run out, lemme know. I'm going into flammable asset mass production right now, and I trade locally. [Essence Region]

Its rather poor that a major piece of Caldari history in the making cannot be affected by the Caldari players.


Sort of with you on this, but if they fail and CCP just says "nope, you win" (because of $$$s, story, lore) and boundary violates anyone not Caldari, how is this better than just the chance to "be there"?


I don't deny it won't be fun -- it will be a shitload of fun. Full points for that -- and perhaps the best reason to attend.

I simply point out that the outcome should be as much a product of "The Sandbox" as anything else in this game, rather than what I expect to be a pre-ordained result.
