Let's say that due to myself being used to living in a wormhole system on my player main for a prolonged period of time now, I haven't found very many things or obstructions during cruising there that were unavoidable and as such deadly.

It's a beautiful system! Although I wouldn't go mining there right now mind you.....Blink

Everyone will forget about Thera in a week. It's an inconvenient lowsec system, basically. It requires probing, risk, and there's nothing there. It needs to be CONCORD policed to become any type of mos eisley of EVERoll (yes, highsec).

Thera is barren. Players just haven't figured it out yet.



It's also connected to *everything*, meaning that you can base a 50 interceptor wolfpack there, find holes to renter space, and burn nullbears to the ground, only to jump back into Thera when defense fleets mobilize. Then you go to the other side of nullsec and do it again.

I look forward to the day when mining in Thera is safer than mining in highsec.



Also OP - I'm going to be polite and assume you were only pretending to be stupid, so 8/8 for trolling. Gr8 b8 m8.

If There was designed to be huge PvP arena - why limit amount entrances to the system? Shouldn't they be presented in every star system and don't require scanner to find?

I can't figure out how pve and the station are linked together.
Do the rats spawn at the station?

With so many wormholes and 2 stations one would think the obvious choice would be to leave.

You can, as long as you have friends for back up.

I'd rather be market pvp'ing.

Thera has many resources, and 4 stations. I cannot think of a scenario where I would PvE there, but...

To be honest OP makes sense, why set up stations in the first place if they will be obvious camped death traps(at least in null there are less people and big chance to just slip by), where docking is equal to suicide?

They could at least put up a sentry or two to protect their critically important research and staging bases.

(this is more of a lore post, not gameplay one, i fully understand Thera is for pvp only and its ok game mechanic, plzdonteatme)



It was stated long ago that Thera would be akin to a "Wild West/Mos Eisley" town. That's the lore.




Yeah sure.

EVE players don't know how to not trample everything. if the stations were destructible, they'd be gone by now.

Help, I can't download EVE

I think the inference was "anything goes." PVP and all.

I saw a Procurer in Thera yesterday. I hope OP isn't suggesting that it was bait! Who would do such a thing?

Not sure if trolling or if the OP actually expected to run anoms in Thera.

Having put further thought into this I'm pretty sure trolling.

In EVE, you aren't the "Hero", you don't get Main Character immunity.

You're one of many, even among demigods.

If people want a game to fluff their ego, then pretty much every other game exists for that purpose. But in EVE, you aren't special.

So yes, bubbles.

I find it ironic that it's a sisters of eve system, yet it's the most brutal and cutthroat place in eve.
Would have made a bit more sense if it was a pirate free haven..

How does "brutal and cutthroat" combine with "pirate free" ?

What part of the market are their ships listed under?

Because last time I checked, they are considered pirates themselves.

That's actually a very smart post. Sorry, thought I point that out.
