Hmm this is a tough one...

Lets say we have 10 ships camping a gate and each of those ships has 1 warp disrupted fitted; what would that fleets combined warp jamming strength be?

Damn, i can't figure it out... Can anyone help? Roll

Also, don't be scared of joining a corp, it's what eve's all about.

The wishlist is pretty much complete...

Be terrified of it!

This one corp I was in, I lost my Frieghter to a corp member in a Megathron who ganked me. Of course, it was perfectly legal, as he was in the same corp as me......

Of course, the prime point of my question was the warp scramble strength of a single pilot (in general, estimated). It'd be a shame if I were to be caught at a celestial or too far from a gate (yes, bookmarks) and be pinned down and destroyed by a pirate using a single scrambler, which could have been easily avoided. Naturally, gate camps give little chance of getting out properly. Hencewhy I was curious if people hunting for targets in lowsec fit only one scrambler and hope for people to not fit one or stuff their respective slots full of them.

I'm not, per se, scared of joining a corp. I just haven't found a proper reason to do so. I couldn't think of anything I could provide a corp and I can't think of something a corp could provide me. Plus, i'm para...

well i guess it would be more satisfying to have made it in the game one your own...

So if i'm understanding your right, you want to bring goods in and out of low/null sec?

If so depending on the size of your goods, i would use a cruiser for small items. i used a cruiser to make fitted with warp core stabs, rigs that made me warp faster and a cloak to move small stuff like t2 ship mods but the profit on those things were too small.

It's far easier to make isk on smaller items like implants or plex. For that i'd use a covert ops ship... But in all honesty, you should be training for a cloaky hauler if trading it going to be your main activity.

I cannot recommend Cloaky Haulers more highly.

They are the greatest ship in the game. Trufax.

I wrote like a full mini-guide on how to ferry trade across low/null, but the forum ate it.

1) What you fit your ship with is nowhere near as important as how you use it and its scanners/other intel tools to avoid danger before they even see you.
2) Cloaky haulers are a must once you start ferrying serious goods. DSTs are trash.
3) Fit a magnate with small rigs and expanders - 1000m3 in a frig right away.

Let me punch a few numbers in a calculator.

Now, first of all, many numbers are pulled right out of my ass, since I don't have access to the game at work and can only guesstimate the outputs of extractors on better planets, this time by the size of the bars in the scan window. Consider it a calculating practice.


Let's say I extract about 6000 P0 units per hour on a ECU on my lame highsec barren PI test planet to just about feed a single processor. If the extraction rate of a 0.2 planet is thrice as big as on a 0.6 planet, I'd use six heads instead of three and two extractors total I'd produce 1.656.000 Units P0 a day, 11.592.000 Units P0 a week.

Now, if I manage to convert all of this (needing a total of 12 processors) I'd convert them into 82.800 Units P1 per day. That's 579.600 Units P1 in a week. Each unit of P1 needs 0,38m³ which means that a daily production needs 31.464 m³ of storage space, which would be 220.248m³ a week.


...well... I believe this is the first time a calculator gave me the finger.


Either I made some GROSS miscalculations, I shot WAY over my goal or I just entered freighter territory. There's no way I can transport THAT much materials in a hauler. Let alone store it on a planet for a week. I'd have to haul back five to six times per planet... per day! Does anyone know how much storage space the customs office hangar provide?

<.<

Ah well, I believe that's going way off the course of this thread anyway :3
