AWW YEAH

Just stole 250mil from an ESS


Which means the residents are now just going to shoot the damn thing and accept the 5% nerf rather than the 20%.

Working as designed.

Do you really believe all the bullcrap you post?


Devs jumped on the fact that ESS near a wormhole was a design flaw.
Waiting for the same dev's to post up that burying an ESS deep in an anom is an exploit, and will be fixed.

You really don't see the category error there? Really?

Putting it in an anom is emergent game play not a design flaw

Yup, and there we go.
That lovely catch-all "emergent game-play" whenever one wants to defend an exploit of terrible game design.

Based on that, how come we are seeing a huge nerf in drone range and drone command?
Based on your criteria, that is also merely "emergent game-play".

Thats called game balance not exploiting. Roll

Idk why people have problems with ESS in anoms. I nearly robbed one with my crow while it was in a hub. Ended up killing a bomber then getting run off by tengu, navy raven and carrier combo. NPC bs and cruisers can't hit intys for **** if you know what transversal is and npc frigs are easily killed. HTFU

The guy who died trying to rob mine was being dumb. Putting these things in anoms is not a meaningful way of defending your income anyways. You even get warning messages when warping to an anom for chrissakes. Not much of an "exploit".
