Hej Guys,

im trying a bit of EFT'ing and i got a question. A Time ago there was a formula about unproabable. I think it was 1.2 Sensor Strengh to 1 Sig Radius.

Now this isnt working anymore.. But lets say i got 400 Sensor Strengh and 90 Sig Radius. What is the Chance to get probed?

Or is there a cap somwhere?


thanks alot =)

There is a cap somewhere.

When you hit the cap the enemy needs 8 probes and a probe scan strength of 78.4 or more

Add to your OGB a set of racial specific implants (Jackals for the Loki for instance iirc) and you can get yourself to the point where only a perfect virtue alt w/ all the bells and whistles can probe you down.

anything over a 1.08 ratio needs virtues.
it's a hard cap so anything over this ratio makes no difference.

The OGB "fix" was pushed off last I heard. Too many too much invested etc etc. That being said, I personally wouldn't mind ogb to stay as it is with a change to make it more reasonable to track these loot cows down. Make it as risky to afk boost as afk mine and so forth.

That or make the boost mode a siege like mechanic that puts said booster at risk for a fixed time. Basically anything to make it a choice when to ogb or not to instead of the current necessity of them.

A fix that i'd like to see is:
- keep OGB (fixing the imbalance between T3 and command ships)
- remove the ability to give boost while inside a POS (i wouldn't mind having rorqual links active while inside POS shields)
- give a substantial sig radius penality when links are active so AFK off grid booster can be easily scan down without virtue implants by every prober, even with lowish skills.

I found the link to the changes they are proposing for command ships and links.

Boost changes.

My favourite part:

"As a side note, as we announced a while ago, we are not pleased by having Warfare Links work outside the battlefield zone, and will be investigating options to move them on grid. Command and Tech3 ships providing that much of an advantage should commit to an engagement instead of being safely parked inside a POS bubble."
