Ships & Modules

Thats what he uses the salvage drone for. Set the salvage drone onto the wrecks and get flagged. But me and high sec mechanics are distant acquaintances.

I was thinking it was for duel-crashing...
(Neutral reppers get flagged to the limited engagement IIRC, so if you rep one party (probably the weaker one so that their opponent thinks they've got help) you can get one or other to shoot at you & bring you into the LE. Then you kill

oh that's nothing,
heres another one on of my corp mates figured out.

Did you know you can shoot and kill the drones of someone with a suspect flag without triggering a limited engagement?

nether did we so he got on the old support ticket train and apparently its "working as intended".


without quoting a gm (nope never not at all) the reason for this is so that limited engagement cannot kept permanent by using a non damaging offensive module to keep the engagement going forever...

anyone else confused?

That's the thing with "working as intended". They say that as if it means anything. Just because it's working as intended doesn't mean it should be that way or that it's the right way to do it.

Imagine all of the ridiculous ideas that could be propagated under the guise of "working as intended"

"well, it's working as intended, so there's nothing we can do about it! It don't matter if it's completely broken and basically stupid, we intended for it to work that way!"

"Oh, well that means it's working as intended, I guess there's no problem then!"

<----mind blown

oh my, i hadn't considered that.

til: drones are actually more like kids than i thought

Easily stealth bombers.

#1. Nemesis
#2. Manticore
#3. Purifier
#4. Stratios

Recently tried Legion, HAMs 100MN mwd and hull tank.

Very interesting, fit and dps high enough.

The reaper, spamming lyrics from dont fear the reaper in local if people run from you (and they do, rarely) is so fun. Also in 90% of all cases people do fight you.

The ship I had the most fun with was a beam fitted Zealot.

The fun came from fighting IRC/ED when INIT was flying RR BS fleets, and IRC/ED were using BS-only overviews


Actually now I think of it, even more fun was flying a Viator from Paragon Soul to Jita and back, in the days before BRs could fit covops cloaks. Take a load of Meta 4 mods, Zydrine & Megacyte to Jita, sell it, then use the ISk to buy T2 mods, implants and faction ammo to run back through Catch and Stain. Damb Jump Freighters ruining the small independant businessman!

Dictors. Easily the most fun I have is zipping around, farting bubbles, and blasting support and tackle ships......until I explode in a ball of fire. I can fly most any sub-cap, but Dictors are the most fun.

They are welcome in every null sec fleet, so I always have a spot regardless of the doctrine we're using. They are cheap, to the point they are often freely handed out by the alliance. so I can have a couple in stock and ready to go. They often act as advance scouts, cloaky eyes on a gate, and hero tackle when a target absolutely needs to be held long enough for your fleet to arrive.
After their buff, they are even more fun, since you might actually survive to take part in the fight.

It's the class of ship I recommend all new PvP'ers to strive for. Low end skills make them accessible, the cost makes them affordable, their utility often makes them free, and you won't ever be just 'tagging along' with a fleet because you don't have the skills/isk to fly some shiny DPS boat. You are a contributor from the moment you fly one.

Hands down the best training investment I've made in Eve was to fly the Interdictor class of ships.
