also i'm gonna drop a little knowledge bomb on the ignorant sheep bleeting in this thread: when ganking, why would I bother going to all the effort of killing the one guy who figured out how to tank his hulk by getting a BC or two handy when there is an endless parade of idiots who i can drop catalysts on?

when it came to the ice interdiction it was necessary to pound anyone who resisted's face into pulp regardless of the expense, but when you're just out to farm the weak and stupid there's no need to put the effort into refitting to get the guy with four braincells instead of two

unless of course you mouth off, then you're going to die

but really my goal is for catalysts to continue streaking out of the sky nonstop (and my orca fits 8-9 of those instead of two bcs) to maximize the suffering i inflict so i'm just going to launch the wootinators at all the untanked idiots, then only go after the tanked guys if they attempt to act like they're people or i run out of idiots

and in this game it's pretty hard to run out of idiots

The first thing you will notice is the epic and mind numbing click-drag-drop fest that you have gotten yourself into. After that it all goes down hill from there. So I guess have a party if you're into that sort of thing. Roll


EFT does not equal Real Game Play. (TM)


My mining Dominix laughs at your uber tanked hulk every day, gets enough cargo and 1200m/s +drones to kick yer arse and neut/scram to finish the job.
Now you can perfectly gank it like an Hulk and it will probably be some day, if I ever mine again witch I doubt.

So what's next uber lol tank Hulk fit with a decent isk/h yeld?

@Baltec1

Salut Lol



Can you explain what this post means, I read it twice and it still confuses me. When did we start talking about dominixs, large drone bays and scrams to laugh at me?

In all honesty, I hate it when people fit survey scanners and MLUs on the Hulk during highly-destructive events like Burn Jita and Hulkageddon. Unless you found a system in high-sec space that has almost no one in it and is far from the hubs and away from the pirate hives, those two modules are a waste of space for a Hulk in terms of achieving optimal tank.

I use an Orca also for providing the best fleet boosts possible for my Hulk's shield and armor resistance. I'm also looking to train it up to utilize a third gang link for reducing the signature radius.

But it doesn't always have to be an Orca to provide the boosts. Just sitting in a cheap battlecruiser with a gang link active is enough. Hell, even if you can't fit a gang link for whatever, some of the leadership skills alone will already provide boosts just for being in fleet (no gang links needed) such as improved agility, faster targeting speed, etc.

Of course, there is always the friendly logistics guys who will probably provide RR defenses for free if you run into them. IF you run into them. Since there's probably not gonna be a lot of them roaming around, you have to prepare for the worst. Sacrificing yield for tank is preferred over having weak tank when a fleet of Thrashers and Catalysts come knocking on your back door (giggity).

I do not care what you have. I do mine, too, on a given occasion and I will not sit in a ship worth 500m ISK and a thin tank while it is the most priced target to every ganker in EVE. It is because of its tank and price tag. If you do not get this then you are just as stupid like the rest of them who desperately hold on to the supertanked Hulk. People like you deserve Hulkageddon so you can snap out of your despair eventually. There is no other way to put it.

Let me ask you, did you not yet notice how miners are being treated? They not just get ganked, they get their cans flipped, they get bumped and threatened and laugh at on a daily basis. The miners are being treated like arseholes. If you do not see this and if this does not make you want a better mining ship then one cannot help you!


Hi sec is far too dangerous a place to use a ship intended for nullsec.

I do not. He deleted the comment where I tell the goon, after he called people idiots, that he is an idiot himself. The comment where the goon calls people idiots however remains. I bet the goon reported me for being rude to him. Lol Or maybe the ISD agrees with the goon and he thinks their game is full of idiots.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

What I see is a goon insulting other players of idiots, beg an ISD for candies and keep posting arrogant comments.
Nothing new, just in the same line and already seen at fanfest.

There's a difference between a general statement like "People who drink contaminated water are idiots" and a specific statement like "Whitehound is an idiot".

And what is the difference between those two forms of insult?

I tell you. One is a generalization and the other is personal. You think one is better or more acceptable than the other? It is not and to believe otherwise makes you an idiot. QED.

Agreed bad advice is bad advice.

But in a thread offering advice on how to better your chances of survival. It is amazing that when told 30k hp is better than 16k hp. they argue that it is not better. Ironic that these person's are the ones, name calling.
