Will T3's still be allowed in lowsec 4/10? You can enter 5 + 6/10 with BS, does not make sense that for lowsec 4/10 you cannot enter with T3s.

Well it would be logical to be able to in low sec, but i believe the change is global on the acceleration gates and it can't be specific to a certain region, could be wrong though( *if spawn=highsec use accel gate setup 2 else use setup 1 P )

T3 unable to enter lowsec plexes would suck

log onto the test server and see?

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Can someone post a link to where CCP has mentioned their reasoning behind the banning of t3 cruisers from 3/10 and 4/10s?
I would like to see something official. Like a dev post

Sir Liv, nice goggles and good to see you're still kicking, and hopefully killing.

Has this change been a recent one? With the new Sleeper AI in all NPC's now, even for lower ended DED, T3's are something of a defacto ship. Since the whole "I''m gonna nom on your drones now" make other ships a bit useless. Unless of course I've missed something along the way.

looks like as of the 4th onwards ( expansion day ) no more t3 in 3 or 4/10's.

if you are saddened by this use a recon or a hac.

I am not sure that CCP has even acknowledged the change much less supplied a reason.

Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

Drones are under no threat in 4/10s unless you derp because the rats in the plex do not change aggro.... or at least not in the approx 100 4/10's that I have run since the AI change.

Why would it be such a problem in lowsec? Most 'elite' explorers in their tengus (at least around where i live) ignore 4/10s anyway and only look for 5 and 6/10s. It would also allow those not in a tech 3 to maybe do those sites a bit more secure.

No reason has been supplied, low sec 3s and 4s have been barred also.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

Scrub carebear explorers couldn't be bothered to train for a T3, and were getting their sites stole by players flying T3s. So they whined until CCP changed the mechanic.

Yeah dude, that 5 days it took to go from T2 to T3 was too much for most pubbies to bother.

unless ofc you never bothered with T2 cruisers because most of them used to suck, particularly the caldari ones..

If you can't beat the scrubs without flying a T3, you pretty much suck at this game.

I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.

It's official. This quote is from the patch notes for June 4th

"Exploration & Deadspace

Strategic Cruisers have been removed from the list of ships allowed to enter 3/10 and 4/10 complexes.
Randomly spawned large asteroids have been removed from wormhole mining sites.
4/10 DED Complexes no longer allow Strategic Cruisers to enter."

This patch just gets better and better.

One more round of things that make awful players mad and I might have to send CCP a gift basket.
