Will we ever see titans used solo in pve again?

It sure made it a lot fun being a hunter.

Working out clever schemes etc.

I don't see it happening. Too sought after for kill mails combined with their cost alone would make them useless. I'm sure just a Titan on D scan would cause a fleet to form up instantly.

I don't see why you ever needed 'clever schemes' to kill a titan that is ratting...

Come on, a Titan for ratting?

Don't you read the newspapers anymore?

Supers are all the rage now! Everything you will ever need is a super. There is super-man, super-max, super-duper, super-slow, super-bricky, super-drones, super-fighters, super-bombers and stuff.

And with your super-man bat-mobile you can kill everything, completely without any risks whatsoever.

Though I may not be super-man, but wonder-woman, you can do like ratting, deadspace-complexes and even get CNN to talk about supers - worldwide free advertising.

Supers are so super, they even make people quit..

You know, endgame and stuff What?

Eve Minions is recruiting.

This is the law of ship progression!

I see what you're doing here. Going for that guy who just bought an Eve pilot with daddy's money Twisted

Yes super carriers are the best for lowsec ratting.

Well, in the old days before hictors, they really were 100% invincible while ratting, so there is that.

Don't forget the old log off mechanics where you could log off while in combat

Which basically meant = bring enough firepower to kill it before it vanishes.
