You asked an honest question about blob tactics and PvP, prepare for 10 pages worth of trolling, In all seriousness I'd really like someone to properly discuss this though but the people who supposedly do this sort of thing won't have any of it.

I believe domestic fights with your wife do not count as small gang fights. She asked something else...

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

Post with your main or your opinion is not valid. We will kill people if they are dumb enough to trow them selves at our fleet when they are out numbered, but we are constantly down shipping, splitting fleets and going separate directions, and taking fights at 2/1 or 3/1 odds. When we undock, it is in search of as even a fight as we can find.

Who made you fuc-in forum queeny i will post with who i want to protect the name of the corp i fly with but let me tell you something how does your pimped out logi fleets compare to frigate gangs that take what looks like to be a fair fight in the end turns out to be major over kill... who does 7 bc's compare to your 20 man waiting in other systems for us to take the fight and then land the entire fleet on top of us.....

Im not having a go at your as thats your game but for the love of god How much over kill do you have to dish out until it becomes so boring you would rather chew your arm off..

You know now you've said that I keep being reminded of the Orkz and their Waaagh! Anyone else think that blob fleets are exactly like that? ;D

It's a shame that these trolls with all their knowledge and wisdom don't right up some sort of awesome guide to getting past warp bubbles and blob fleets, because then I could stop bitching on the forums about it trying to get answers out of them.

.... No really, what you thought I was being sarcastic? :(

Once upon a time there was a smuggler's guide. I'll quote the relevant passage below:

Covert Ops / Interceptor
That is pretty self explanatory. What they can't catch they can't kill

Unfortunately, perma-death would be the only solution agasint blobs and many other problems that the game has.

It is also unfortunate that HTFU is just a song (or a forum MEME, at most), and not CCP's philosophy of gutsy game mechanics.

That's it? So you're solution to avoid getting ganked by blobs is to lose an even more expensive ship?

I could explain it in detail for you, but that comes at a price.

PFFFT thats the mentality right there..... trying choosing targets for the fleet doctrine you have set up and end up being hot dropped...
