A Rorqual Question

Question is, can a Rorqual dock at an NPC station in Low Sec? Last time I heard, they can't use gates. I assume that is still true.

I have a character that has spent a long time training Rorq skills, but I never really intended to buy one. Suddenly, one might come in handy

But I have never flown a Jump capable ship, and I know that they are not all created equal.

hey I had 50% chance of getting it right! Or 100% if I bothered to look it up.

Sometimes living on the wild side can be good for you :3

Tarp or not, I appreciate the offer. :)

Investing in jump capable ships is kind of intimidating. Especially since I have a pretty good idea how little I know about them.

When you are looking at billions spent on a hull it is advisable to know WELL BEFORE you buy let alone fly it. Realistically you won't even look at a cap hull (orca exemption) as something worth your time for a couple years or more.

no, they cannot be built there, nor can they be cyno'd into hisec.

OP, seriously, learn how capitals work* before even thinking about spending 2+ billion on a Rorqual, please.


* not just docking/gate mechanics, but all the support skills you're going to be needing to actually fly it. And no, I don't mean just the mining link skills.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia
