how much might we be looking out cause im keen to use my alt in a stratios and i would be dumb shocked if it got 1hit ko even 100% unfitted
so if ive missed how much it would be feel free to inform me but if not feel free to throw out what you think it will be around personally i feel a destroyer might be in some Serious issue if it occurs but id like to feel a cruiser could survive without too much other then losing full shields or something

Try the test server.

and also try editing your posts for readability.

Ghost sites will kill ships that aren't prepared for them.

Next question?

Why oh why would you test a new, potentially lethal type of damage in the thinnest paper-tanked ship you can find?

1) Fit the most stupidly overtanked ship you can.
2) Intentionally fail the site.
3) Record damage taken.
4) Don't enter the site with anything less than X EHP.

Alternatively wait two days for someone else to go through the above and post their results on every forum/wiki.


I swear some people can't pour water from a bucket even if it has instructions printed on the bottom.

Confirming you can survive the nullsite explosion with an unfit cruiser. Go have fun! Twisted

to be on the safe site hack only 1 can (cargo scanner FTW) and then GTFO. Anything more then that is at high risk of loosing your ship. The random timer before rats spawn is not predictable but you have allways time to hack 1 can. And that is better a can with a BPC inside of it.

Lol.

To be on the safe side, tank your ship. It's not hard, and if you fail a hack the can is going to pop, so it's entirely possible to still kill yourself with your strategy.

Not the case, on SiSi at least. Just ran a site in Null (-0.7) and didn't have time to hack a can before the NPCs showed-up. I warped cloaked into the site at zero, decloaked and scanned the four cans (nothing of value), and was on my way to the first can (was going to intentionally fail to test my tank) when the NPCs spawned. Fortunately my tank survived (77.5% exp resist resulted in 2250 dmg from a single Secure Databank), but that's what the test server is for!

edit: it actually did 28,250 raw explosive damage,

It should also be noted that all of the spawned ships shoot a volley as soon as they spawn with the explosive damage, did about ~1k thermal to me at 80% thermal resists not including the explosive damage. So yea, if you don't have 28250 exp ehp and around 5k faction specific ehp, you're gonna get oneshot.

Gurista version does 100% thermal damage.
