Someone should calculate how fast it would be with Ascendancy 1-5 and WS-618.

What is the speed limitation that the server can handle? I imagine there has to be a limit to how quickly you can get into warp and drop from warp.

Imagine warping so fast that you essentially blip from one point to another. Would the server be able to keep up with it?

I don't know about the server, but before they made warp deceleration slower on sisi, doing several warps in a row between grids would crash my client.

Yeah, I forgot people are stupid and put these ships in compromising situations.
You pretty much have to let yourself be ganked.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

timed how long it takes to jump 25 systems.

started from system X
19:03:02

jumped 25 gates

Arrived in system Y
19:15:23

docked at station Y
19:15:54

Total time 12:52

Average time between systems is around 30 seconds in a leopard.

Every day in every way I improve my skills and get better.

what were they actually expecting ? Titans that can be flown without skills ?

CCP should give everyone a ship that's as big as a dreadnought, has a jump drive but can't use stargates, aligns slow and warps slow like a dreadnought, but fits like a cruiser with extra EHP to make up for its huge sig radius, and has a tracking penalty making cruiser weapons track like capital weapons. And can be used in highsec.

That way we can pretend we are flying a dreadnought in highsec.

Cause the price to fit a gank ship capable of popping that little shuttle is almost nothing (Hell, a rookie ship with 2 weapons could probably do it). We all know how people feel about their precious ISK frag rate. Taking out a few of them increases your rate 100 to 1 or more. Not to mention the increase of a gamker's E-peen by claiming they got a unique ship kill, nor the joy felt by others at the tears of the victims because of their loss.



Pretty much this. People who don't ePeen would not expect nor understand this. The Leopard should be flown like a poorly tanked Astero.


The Leopard is pretty much warping away by the time you can try to click it to target it. Unless you are smart bombing or catch it in a bubble in nullsec you aren't catching it.




Can you imagine both the tears and the fun if this thing had interdiction nullification?

I would not know which aspect to enjoy more.

Confirming the Leopard is absolutely **** to fly! I maybe buying some more in the near future. Big smile

Edit: Really, I can say "ass" but I can't say that?

"Tomahawks?"
