Intys should get Partial Nullification

What I mean by Partial Nullification is you can (1) initiate warp to get out of a bubble BUT (2) a catch/drag/stop bubble will still cause you to exit warp at the bubble's edge.

They'll just warp off again within seconds.

So whats the point of the bonus if the rather common double bubble dictor can shut it down?

Hmm, on grid bubbles would be a bit of a issue. Perhaps part (2) should only apply when an inty would land on a new grid. Therefore, double bubble immune, bubblewrap immune, bubble screening immune, but can still be dragged out of warp if they're dumb enough to warp gate to gate.

Sounds like this would just complicate the whole thing while sitll providing ways to negate the exception.

Looking for more thoughts? Follow me on Twitter.

Yeah it sounds to me like someone just wants to put some bubbles up around the one gate into their dead end system and feel totally safe while they rat.

OMG read the post before replying. He said that on jump in they could warp out of the bubbles. But if they warp strait to a gate that has a drag bubble on it they would get pulled out.

So no that's not at all what he was saying.

Makes total sense. Drag from warp and prevent warp being too diferent mechanics. I suport that ideia!

I would fully support this change to all Nullification Systems. It creates a "double edged sword when entering a bubble-wrapped system (easy to get in, hard to get out), while still allowing it to navigate one-direction through most gate camps and station camps.

a corpie suggested that they get immunity to t1, but not t2. t2 bubbles would be a more focused bubble and get the inties.

figured i would add it here for him.

Suspect OP wants to use drag bubbles in his ratting pipe to slow scouts/tacklers down since his 40+ gate bubbles will no longer do that.
