EVE General Discussion

so you expect me to, have a fleet sitting on a titan that i cant get because i cant get sov because i dont have a dev in the alliance, and you expect me to have a cyno fitted at all times... etc etc etc...

A dev to get sov? Are you really this stupid?

You dont even need a cyno to deal with cov ops ships, I have done it solo plenty of times.

Those are some pretty good ideas, OP, but I have a better one:

HTFU.

all i am trying to say is that you can counter a cyno, but a cov cyno can not be stopped atall unless you know its comming

and i dont and havent died to a hotdrop ... so your argument is invalid

Yet another "the game is broken, make it easier for me" post.

When will this end?

EVE is designed to be hard with a steep learning curve. I would know, I have recently started playing this game (1 year in). But from what I have learnt over the past 12 months is that, even though you might find something "hard", "unfair" or even "un balanced", there are many more opportunities in this game that far outweigh the "bad".

This game is SO MUCH FUN. You can do pretty much what ever you like.

And as the saying goes, 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em".

So go get your own ship that can cyno/covert cyno and...

Stop your tears and HTFU.

If you know it's coming, then why are you still sitting there? It's relatively easy to mitigate drops, covert cyno capable ships are all hilariously easy to kill; all covert ships are pretty easy to neutralize.

Every post you have made in this thread is backed up with nothing but misconceptions, bad information and zero research; Why are you proposing for drastic drawbacks to a relatively underused ship setup that really only gets used by bittervets and high skill point pilots anyway?

PvP in EVE is seperated into two distinct groups, there are the people that have done their research, theorycrafting and tested their findings in the field, and those who hear someone else ramble on about something in a channel, have no idea what they are doing, and refuse to take either advice or comment from people that actually know what they are talking about.

Your entire existence is invalid.

thats the smartest thing you've said so far, but when noobs start using this high skillpoint system to do the same thing then what?

Those were descriptions of the current game mechanics affecting the lighting of a Covert Cyno. Oh, and you can see them coming from a mile away; Neut in system, nothing on Dscan, must be cloaked, probably has Cyno, be careful.

While there's that cloaked Neut in system, you could use:

• A 1400 Quick Locking Tornado will keep your mining fleet forever safe from the horror of a SB lead Covert drop. The Bomber decloaks, lights the cyno, you blap it (because hey, a frigate that's not moving), and the fleet bridging ends up randomly spread around the system.


• A Falcon will do similar, allowing your Mining barge to simply warp away from the now impotent stealth bomber.


• If they bring something heavier than a Stealth bomber to light the Cyno, you have at least 5 seconds to react and exeunt before anything gets tackled. (Try fitting webs in your mids and keeping your friends webbed, you'll fleetwarp almost instantly.).

If you want to set a trap, keep a cloaked Interdictor near where you expect the bomber to arrive, and bubble the Cyno (the fleet will land within 5km of the Cyno, the bubble is 20km) and tackle expensive things (a cloaked Arazu works great here). Now get your fleet in, either from Station/POS/Next door or a Blops/Titan bridge, depending on resources.

Why should you get to have a turkey shoot against the fleet bridging in without any effort on your part?

humm NO op .

1 - you can get a titan i see them a lot on the for sell order forums
2 - have a fleet ready to kill hostiles, man that's new we should all really look into this.
3 - any alliances that hold sov didn't get there by devs giving them it, they took it with people playing the game together.
4 - you don't need to have a cyno fitted all the time but when you have a hostile and you want to hotdorp them back its nice to change your fit and bait them you know use team work.
