EVE General Discussion

Having over 140+ skins from this event already, i can say a few things about it;

One is that i will literally steal a rogue swarm site from any of you (that i have the ability to successfully do) and you'll do not a damn thing except cry XD LOL CCP did not make these sites to cater to any individual pilot and i've seen the idea that being catered to is the mindset of the HS pilot. Space isn't here for you. Nothing is here "for" you. There is no common courtesy, unless you're in the same organization.

Another is that if you're in an area that has no rogue swarm sites, it means there are too many people in that area doing the same thing you are. I literally just finished a system with 11 sites in it. Yes, 11. Next highest record below that was 7.

Another is that if you came back to eve or are doing the sites for the plex drops, you're ******* stupid and deserve the disappointment. In no world was CCP going to just hand you plex like that and you know it. Don't be so full of yourself, lol.

I would; however, like to see if i can get some collaboration on information as far as the likelihood for drops, of which i have seen none. I saw a post earlier about nullsec offers higher booster drop likeliness, but i have seen that to be less than likely.

I, personally, live in nullsec and have noticed no difference. Actually, i've gotten ragnarok, phoenix, raven, widow, all kinds of good skins even from tertius overminds in highsec and have seen no difference in likeliness for booster drops. Out of about 140 or more sites, i have probably 25 boosters, probably 80% of these sites were HS. This info for edumacational purposes.

same theres no difference in drops, although it seems the bc and battleship drop the booster more often.
but sec value seems to have no affect, im running over 100-200 in high sec so far, probably have had 30-40 booster drops, and i have well over a 100 skins left after injecting duplicates and giving many away, getting more worthless drone alloys now, 5-6 drone part drops after the loot table rebalance and more skin diversity, first day almost no kador skins were dropping, 4 single plex drops, though someone in nullsec ive spoken too has claimed to have gotten a 500plex drop on the first day and there were only 6 full plex drops during the entire event but i cant verify or find the page he said he read so i assume hes trolling me.

It appears as if this event has ended. Just checked about 20 systems and no more swarms in sight.

The Rogue Swarm Accelerator is still on the market and they are still working as of now, June 27th, 6 pm Chicago time.

Thats because they stop working at 00:00 on the 30th

Another event is actually around the corner from what I hear, in case you're wondering.

Sobaan - Thank you for the note. I have indeed noticed the new event and I suppose I should give credit to where it is due; CCP is doing a decent job of stirring activity and I did decide to pay for another month.

I did not appreciate the raging flaw in the current event "The Agency" where it was not giving credit for clearing a combat site in a Battlecruiser for the first two days. I mean, how can you roll out a feature without testing it first? Who does that?

"The Agency" is similar to "Rouge Swarm" in that it is forcing players into the signature sites and there you can find some of the like behaviour where someone will steal your can, you can steal their and actual content ensues. It's not anywhere near as active as Rogue Swarms was, I guess due to a lack of rewards (insultingly low rewards at that) but it is nice to have a new way to possibly execute someones ass over petty theft and pad my kill sheets. Goes well with coffee and a brownie.

Thank you for mentioning it.
