EVE General Discussion

I hauled a lot of boosters through high-sec on my alt and never had any "police problems".
You have to warp off quick and I heard they sometimes catch you on the outgate but I never had this happen to me.

The can´t contract them thingy is a pita for sure and I don´t get it at all but well, it is how it is and there are work arounds.

For using booster the first thing that pops into mind is: Always check charcater sheet for the effects/side effect because the Exile Booster is bugged. It will show you the -15% velocity bonus every time but it is simply a bug. Looking at your char sheet will show you the real deal.
For first hand booster footage I´d recommend SardCaids youtube channel or twitch. He is flying BCs almost exclusive and he is using boosters a lot.
My personal experiences with them are a bit limited but the X-Instinct ones safed my ceptor from several Oracle volleys and the Blue Pill won me several fights because the buffed my shield boosters to an extend were I could tank it. On the other side I lost a lot of AFs because I had the wrong "stats" in my head / didn´t popped a Pill and didn´t realise it. Might have lost anyway but well.
Whenever I don´t like the side effects I simply self-destruct and pop another pill. Using them short before combat or during combat is something I never did but I know some of the better solo players do it sometimes.

Since I don´t produce them I have no idea about that part I just heard it can be a pain in the ass if you don´t know what you´re doing so basicly it´s like most other things in EvE. :D

I have always been in love with Standard Exile, I suppose this was because it was the first drug I ever took (in Eve). X-instinct has become a close second.

I didn't have much interest in interceptors until another factional warfare pilot, I think it was Varinox, linked me his light missile fit. I flew the Malediction around and liked it so I trained interceptors V and light missiles V. Something happened that I think only 20% of Eve players knew about, it was a big secret. If you were using links and popped an X-instinct while piloting a Malediction with the MWD on you had a ridiculously low signature radius. Lower than a standard frigate and you could orbit things at 6K+.

That coupled with the fact that you could put a sensor booster in the mid and an ancillary armor repper in the lows meant you could grab anything fast and rep a little bit, providing that you actually took damage, which YOU DIDN'T EVER!

This ship was freaking awesome, you could kill anything battle cruiser or smaller in factional warfare space; this was Eve easy mode. I got a few kills after my month or so of training for it and made plans to go hardcore, buy a halo set and was dreaming of how many kills I was going to get with it. It was eve paradise for a few days.

After a few days light missiles were nerfed to Hek and the light missile bonus was removed from the Malediction. THE END

The moral of the story is: CCP hates missiles and combat boosters are awesome!
