Hello when are you gonna fix the rats in gallente fw plexes, they do no damage unless their within spitting range and the dampening is pathetic. Especially if you compare that to the caldari plexes who spam you with missiles and perma jam you the second you get in. Gallentes have railguns fit them on the rats and change the dampening to locking time to balance it at least a bit , the way it is now is just plain unballanced and its a hundred times harder to fight inside plexes for the gallente then it is for the caldari's.

yeah thats right now flame me

you just learned this? Solo pilots use ishtars or gilas due to the drone abilities. The jamming is what screws up the gallente fw :(

The answer is simple. Put an alt in caldari milita. Run Caldari missions for ISK.

Even if the Caldari know it's your alt they wont attack due to standings loss. You can tell the Gallenete set character to blue.

I know you like to role-play but if you want easy ISK........

These are not missions this is faction war plexing. It means that you can change the occupancy of a system by doing faction warfare plexes in the system, it has nothing to do with agents isk or roleplaying. Having a caldari alt to run them wont do anything because you wont capture the plex for the gallente federation.

get an alt to run with you

you want the alt to be in a caldari npc corp, this way if caldari attack your alt they loose caldari standings.
the alt goes in and gets full room agro or what ever... and your main goes in and kills all the npc''s and does what you want him to do.

To be in a caldari faction npc corp means that you have to have at least a +0.5 standing towards the caldari state , being in fw means that the caldari npc's wont agress you because you have a plus standing towards them. Thats why i would like to see them fixing the plexing so that the gallente npc's have equal range/damage and e-war capabilities, altho i know it's just falling to deaf ears.

All people replying to this topic obviously have no clue what FW plexes are.
As Popie said: its about taking over a system occupancy. Caldari Alts are useless in FW plexes as you cannnot run the plex for gallente and also you can not speedtank the plex with it as the npc's wont shoot caldari militia.

Why should Caldari guys be able to easily run a FW plex solo whilst Gallente guys need Heavily Tanked speedtanking alts to be able to run a plex? its completely unbalanced as Popie said. Gallente Plexes should be made much harder to take or Caldari plexes should be made easier, its as simple as that.

You can always change side if npc feels too hard for you.

Is there even ISK to be made? Stop me if im wrong but i thought FW plexes (and capturing the system) was all for "PVP" and you dont actually gain anything?

I could be thoroughly wrong however

Just accept that plexing as it is currently set up is a pve activity. If they wanted it to be pvp they would do away the npcs altogether and just let the players know where plexes are being attacked.

Make faction war occupancy pvp instead of pve https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=53815&#post53815
