LOL!!!!!
AHHHHHHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Good one man..."gankers adapt"
Perhaps you've forgotten the Barge fairy tale thread already where you guys have done nothing but whine and cry for hundreds of pages, I am sure it just slipped your mind. Thank you though for the laugh :)


What, did you think that gankers are going to stop ganking, simply because solo ganking miners is now impossible?
Sorry, thats not happening. They simply find the path of least resistance.

Convincing CCP that they screwed up is hard.
Killing freighters is relatively easy. Too bad for the freighter pilots.


No, I don't expect gankers to stop ganking nor would I want them to. It's just your reply in comparison to how a lot of you gankers reacted to the mining changes... you didn't adapt, you just whined...lol.

And here we are again with another whine thread.

No, your mistake is that you are putting everyone in the same barge than brainless pawns. Those whining moaning FPS fan boys are only and will always be the brainless idiots thinking kill mining barges with a T1 destroyer is balanced, perma camping low sec gates is normal, bring lvl4's to low sec, etcetera etcetera etcetera.
Good gankers don't give and never gave that much importance to mining barge kills when you have permanently and literally thousands of billions worth of stuff being haul in T1 untaked ships, afk freighters, frigates with billions of implants/BPO's/Plex.

30min spent to prepare an exhumer gank (alt scouting/scan etc) it's more then I need to hit F1 and insta alpha the frigate with billions of stuff in his cargo. This is why in my opinion killing mining barges was and will always be pure grieffing and idiots/pawns/special/disturbed dudes business since thinking by their own it's not really their strong point, nothing else.

Why I can't find killmail you destroying 2B isk Damnation in 1.0 system?

By your logic, it should be easy kill with 60M isk Tornado.

Fill the cargo to the brim with 215 plexes and we'll give that dice a roll.

How about cargo rigs and expanders for extra plex capacity? It's 1.0 security so it's safe right? Even on auto pilot.

Because I'm not a ganker.

Guess what? It is. Fortunately, it seems Damnation pilots aren't quite as stupid as haulers.

Are you saying that Drop Shock isn't your alt?

Unless you are using exploits you have still 600k+ EHP to go after your Tornado explodes...

…why would you go after a 600k+ EHP one? You go for the ones with <40k EHP and still carrying that kind of cargo.

just few minutes ago... Goons has destroyed 4 freighters in high sec (u can check eve-kill.net), total drop worth 21.5 billion isk!!!

21.5 Billion isk people!!!!

that beats 10/10 DED, FW Missions and incursions all together!!

if u want all alliances to leave their 0.0 systems and just go fun terrorizing high sec and earn money for that... stay cool about it CCP... as it will destroy the game

u gave protection for miners... its time for freighters/ JF revamp...

OK, Someone does not get the concept of EVE.

I have not even read the other responses yet, but I am sure most will say much the same thing.

That is an average drop of over 5 bil per freighter. Since drops rarely exceed 50% of total cargo value that means these 4 freighter probably averaged over 10 bil cargo each.

That is a very juicy gank target.

If GOONS didn't gank them someone else would have. hell I would have tried to gank that, and I am not a ganker.

Rule of thumb is don't haul more than 1 bil worth of cargo at a time in a freighter. Although you can push that to about 2 bil without to much risk, 10 bil is just asking to get ganked.

As far as I am concerned this is working as intended.

Last time I checked I would get higher EHP with more expensive stuff like A-Type EANMs and T2 1600mm plates than meta 0 EANMs and meta 0 50mm plates.

Then why not go and suicide gank a 600k EHP Damnation?
