lol, lore.

I think only toons exiting that have an aggression timer should be engaged in hs, this way you can camp the hs hole like you would camp any other hole in the game. But only the toons that have the timer would be able to engage in hs. if you jump before you get locked, the you are not subject to anything, and can warp away at your leisure.

Sure a bomber can launch a bomb and give another player a timer, but I doubt the bomber will be able to jump out and tackle if he's 30 km away, even if his buddies are right on the wh, they will not have any timer so to speak so they will not be able to engage.

Just because something is complicated does not mean we should just dismiss it, this is EVE after all. WH are complicated enough for a newb, I don't think adding one more mechanic will dissuade any new player in either direction.

I am seeing how this may push into the idea that hs is supposed to be 'safe' space. But as of right now this escape is a no consequence PvP zone and is not in line with the rest of in game PvP.


I think this one is better. I like it.

Bob Artis, you will be missed.
