If an afk miner or one that is lazy and not playing safe loses a ship to the new BCs, I say its their problem.

An active, properly playing miner will almost never lose a ship to a ganker.




Mine lazilly, you make the job of the ganker easy.

Mine properly (dscan not required), and the gankers move on.


If you want to know how to mine with low risk of being ganked (other than if you **** someone off), please feel free to message me in game. Mail preferred.

My only concern so far would be with the Tornado when setup as an "instacane" copycat. It's look silly but check this out none the least:

Hardwiring - Inherent Implants 'Squire' PG2


This puppy ***** out 9,000 alpha with a lock time of 1.2 seconds on an interceptor. 0.5 sec on a BC. Load Quake L and it goes up to 10,400 alpha. ouch!

Meanwhile, a "real" instacane can not exceed 4,000 alpha by any measure that matters.

I can see this ship turning the universe into something silly real quick. I'll be watching Twisted

It knows what you think.

Why does space have to be safe?

This is not an afk game. D-Scan, be aligned, and be ready, even when you are in high sec.

Roger that. That's my point, actually. With the setup I posted right above, by the time the brain register a blinking yellow box and start reaching for the warp button, accounting for lag etc, you are already socking up a salvo of 1400s. It's done. BLAP.

This might be too much tbh.
