kevin wouldnt fuck up the news like this
Then maybe kevin should have made a new thread instead of being a bitch
Who the fuck is Kevin?
Anyways, Carriers are perfectly balanced, it's just that literally everyone in the game other than me doesn't know how to use them. It's a burden sometimes, being so smart.
Why is the Crusader popular now? It used to be shit nobody looks at.
>Why is the Crusader popular now?
it's not
>It used to be shit nobody looks at.
it got a huge buff a couple of years ago in the interceptor changes

Fags in thread, docking up.
Just remember if you've accidentally joined another voiceless low activity retirement corp, make your plans to leave and do it quietly. These corps are black holes slowly absorbing and destroying player counts
>>1880972>black holes slowly absorbing and destroying player countsi thought that was eve
>>1879243 (OP)So Cenotaph and Tholos, how much do you guys think they'll dominate the Alliance Tournament meta this year?
>>1880972>low activity retirement corpaka: A good corp.
I hate being told what to do, when to do it and how much I need to be online.
I'll do my own shit in my own time when I want and take extended breaks to play other games and you'll like it.
>>1881042Nah Nullsec. Nothing ever happens there even when they're ""at war"".
The isk is shit, the content is boring and has no variety and the PVP is anchoring to an F and pressing F1.
CCP need to ditch working on the lost cause that is null and focus on lowsec some more.
Uprising unironically saved Eve. People already forget that the player count was down to 9k before that expansion came out.
>>1881247Tholos isn't that great, will see some play in rushes when the ceno is banned but it's a slow, squishy destroyer that doesn't provide any utility besides damage.
Ceno seems pretty solid so far, obviously it's amazing in rushes but I've seen it used in control comps too. It is still slow though so if teams learn to play around the ceno its lack of range may cause it to fall out of favour. CCP has also mentioned they're looking at how OP it is and they don't take tournaments into account when deciding the release date of balance patches so I'd guess some teams might be a little hesitant to rely on it too much in case it gets nerfed into the dirt.
This is just from what I've observed though, who knows maybe Tuskers have theorycrafted some crazy tholos comps or something.
>>1881345So you're saying that last year we got Geddon Navy / neut ban spam and this year its going to be Tholos/Ceno ban spam?
Gotcha
bizarre that they care about ship balance only when it affects the AT
the sub price changes feel ok but the problem is the game is not worth subbing
what sub price changes
that shit is still 20/mo
>>1882110It says that you now get plex along with omega time. And no more plex/omega time sales.
>>1882114>And no more plex/omega time sales.it says no such thing
>>1881247You can behave like that if you want to: in an NPC corp. I'll even help you move on.
Joining a corp that has actual goals and ambitions means sacrificing some of your time to help speed things up. Low societal participation is exactly why so many cultures fail. By saying you want to be an atomised free agent you're admitting your time has no value to your peers.

>>1882502kill yourself retard
how would looking at the eve store prove that 6/12/24 month omega is in the NES unlike what that anon says
>>1882505its an ok deal but its also available all the time. it has gone on sale for less than 275/month before, and for some of those you didnt even need to pay for 2 years in advance to get it.
the only omega sales right now are:
NES (expires tomorrow):
1 month + "bonus items" (100k sp, 6d +6 accelerator, glamourex booster) for 425 plex
3 months for 1080 plex (usually 1200)
RMT (expires next week):
3mo + 250 plex @ 48 USD
6mo + 500 plex @ 84 USD
12mo + 1000 plex @ 144 USD
24mo + 1500 plex @ 264 USD
they better give us another 50% off omega+mct or im gonna riot
>>1882505>>1882510in May you couldve gotten 12 months for 2880 plex (240/mo). thats an actual sale.

>manufacturing becomes a much larger chore
tf is this bs. There is no reasonable way to move things to and from E8-. All the manufacturing plants worth a fuck are at least 3-4 jumps away and require an ansi. Fine with a blockade runner, but otherwise is asking to get raped.
Even if you don't die, the extra time involved to move shit makes it pure cancer. I just want to go back to MJ. fml
>>1882631Horde i1s your problem, if you are going with a nullblock for industry you need to be in goons.
>>1882644Horde is just there to drain money from people, goons is basically a retirement alliance now who just keeps crazy infastructure. Everyone else is volatile. If I had to live in dullsec it would be in goons. Think about it this way, they were in delve for 10 years.
>>1882631>There is no reasonable way to move things to and from E8-Just manufacture in MJ and JF it to E-8. Even if you don't have your own JF, surely Horde has a JF service and it shouldn't be much for only one jump.

Not everyone lives in a c5 running sites for 500 mil an hour. The latest economic report makes it clear that MPI is going up because fewer people are generating resources than before. I'll have to double check the commodities but it wouldn't surprise me at all to see data site stuff has remained static or risen

>>1883281are deepflows any less trash now
>>1883712Hurf blurf if datacores weren't available from other sources and not farmed relentlessly by fw bots then you might have a coherent argument. As it stands
Data sites have a drop table primarily geared towards T2 invention and rarely include niche module bpcs. Most players aren't interested in doing t2 invention and the success rate of invention is probably too high quite frankly. Instead of a desperate market needing datacores, there are millions of them rotting on orders
but why do data sites have all those weird toolkit drops with literally zero use?
Data sites are evidence that god isn't real or hates us.

Absolutely RIVETING gameplay.
>>1884037Because datasite loot tables haven't been properly updated in forever.
They should just remove the retarded, worthless T2 BPCs from data site loot tables and put in something that makes more sense. Like say, pirate ship bpcs, with a rare chance to drop pirate capital bpcs. It makes sense since those are fucking pirate data sites, and maybe it would lower the price of those things enough that people actually start using them instead of just being memes.
But CCP is retarded as expected. God I hope they get bought by NetEase, NEXON or some other ultragreedy company that will just kill them.
>>1884396>and maybe it would lower the price of those things enough that people actually start using them instead of just being memes.CCP doesn't want people to use them, because if people use them CCP has to balance them. They exist to be meaningless flex in ganks.
>>1884396Adding pirate BPCs to data sites won't do shit to lower pirate ship prices, you can already print Guristas and Angel ship BPCs like crazy with pirate FW but the prices will remain inflated because of net resonators costing 1mil+1k LP a pop

When we win, do not forget that the people who develop these data sites want you broke, dead, your kids raped and brainwashed, and they think it's funny.

How much do you guys put in a hauler in highsec? Seems so ridiculous to have nothing in it because the value is too high
>>1893253Lowsex is fun but it drains you of isk.
>>1895370Depends on what kind of hauler.
>T1 haulersI've personally hauled over 2b worth in some T1 haulers but it really depends on your route, how much tank you have and your general knowledge of gankers, ganking methods etc. I've even used gallente/minmatar specialized haulers before my skills for T2 haulers were trained because there were some good opportunities. Generally you want to be able to tank at least 1 tornado hit, preferably 2. Very few gankers outside Jita/Amarr multibox more than 2 tornados. Just be aware of potential cargo scanning ships on the gates, get really good at cloak/MWD trick and learn to use your dscan while on the move. Check the gatecheck sites and streams for gatecampers.
>T2 haulersBy now you are expected to know what to do. If you are flying a DST fit whatever you think you can get away with depending on your route. DSTs are pretty solid in HS/LS and wormholes.
If you are flying a BR then whatever, you can get anywhere to do anything if you are good enough. Almost impossible to catch a well flown BR in any area of space.
>SunesisA good option for low-volume/high-value HS/LS transport. Cheap, can be easily fitted to be under 2s align, while being resistant to smartbombs (not immune though, don't warp gate to gate if you know there's a guy multiboxing 8 smartbombing battleships).
>>1895507Don't BRs get killed on sight?
>>1895507This is a fucking excellent write up, thanks man.. im afraid to haul more than 50 mil desu
>>1895608>Don't BRs get killed on sight?How can you kill something that you can't see?
If you are flying BRs you have covops cloak (can warp and move while cloaked). You also have (and this goes for ALL haulers, not just BRs) instadock and instaundock bookmarks on every major trade hub (and wherever else you trade often). And if you are going through null and some gankspot lowsec systems (Ahbazon) you will also want to have tactical bookmarks and perches on the gate to which you warp to avoid smartbombs/bubbles and get a better look on the gate.
A typical Viator BR, will have sub 3s align time, CovOPS cloak, will have interdiction nullifier, enough HP to tank a couple smartbombing battleships, go over 11 AU/s and have the smallest hitbox for decloaking purposes. Your only real enemies at that point are guys who multibox 5+ smartbombing BSs, tons of decloaking cans around the gate (if you are sub3s, even fighters will have very hard time decloaking you before you are in warp), catch/drag bubbles with decloaking cans (easily avoided by bouncing off a celestial or warping to a perch bookmark) or just really bad luck (server disconnect). You pay for that insane amount of safety by having a low cargo space.
>>1895507>I've personally hauled over 2b worth in some T1 haulersI wouldn't recommend this.
>>1895629You're going to need to get comfortable with it. If you're T1 hauling you really can't push that number much higher. Once you're in T2, hauling billions of isk is normal.
>>1895896Always remember that ganking isn't necessarily economical on every kill, it's economical long term because of the freighter and hauler targets that have 500mil or more in cargo. Above a certain point it doesn't matter what you fly because 20 catalysts costing 8 mil each will just fuck you with 16k dps. There is an actual hp ceiling you will bounce off per hull. This is the primary reason battleships got hp bonuses to buffer mods, because they weren't tank enough and even today many BC are competitive

I love smoking weed and dunking krabs
>>1895370depends on the hauler.
Tech 1 hauler like a couple hundred mil.
DST maybe half a bil to 1bil depending on the route.
Magnate for small/valuable shit, it warps fast and carries 1700m3 (gankers expect the Sunesis but no-one expects the Magnate), max couple hundred mil in that too but I use it for Abyssal loot and such (I have a DED station in the same system so I dont have to go far with it).
I try to stay pretty organised and usually haul small bits of loot every time I go somewhere instead of letting a few billions pile up at a time.
>>1895608Yes, if they see you.
If you fly it like a typical cloaky then even in highsec it'll be hard for someone to catch you. Just dont be a dumbass and autopilot uncloaked or anything.
the only times I've lost haulers is due to my own retardation. every time it was avoidable, but one can't be on guard all the time

Most haulers can be easily fit with a tank, warpstab, mwd and a cloak, you have to be dumb to lose one in lowsec.

Highsec moon mining with fleet boosts and compression
>Actual awful tier (10mil/hr or less)T0 Abyssals on a 1 day old character
Highsec belt mining
>>1899780Your numbers are completely off. High tier abyss is not god tier, because it only makes 500-600m an hour and in echange you're risking a 6b+ ship.
High class wormhole ratting requires multiple accounts, if you're single boxing a marauder then c4s are superior.
Speaking of, c4s are closer to 400m an hour single boxed, roughly equivalent to high tier abyss for a fraction of the risk.
Pochven is not a single boxing activity period, and it's vastly in excess of 1b an hour with the right amount of accounts.
I do c5 sites with 2 dreads, a scanner, and a carrier roller and it's about 3b an hour, limited by site respawn.
Also 200m an hour is shit tier income and anything below that isn't worth doing UNLESS it's fully afk.
>>1899883>High tier abyss is not god tier, because it only makes 500-600m an hour and in echange you're risking a 6b+ ship.Nor if you multibox 3 cheap frigates.
As for the rest, multiboxing is assumed for everything. Nobody single-boxes ANYTHING these days.
I have a golem from my previous eve run but don't know what to do with it. Is c4 the only way to make enough money or there's some other way like speedrunning l4 missions in hs?
>>1899947If you have a golem, couldn't you join an incursion group in highsec?
plex price drop has financially ruined me
>he put all his eggs into one basket
ngmi
>>1899976 None of those I checked have golems in their fit lists tho
>>18999413 cheap frigates can't do t6 and are annoying as hell to do in t5. T6 Frigates aren't cheap, t6 Retri/deacon/nergal runs about 4b for the fleet with a very low margin for error. T6 Dark Hawks are 1.2b each.
>>1900300>T6 Dark Hawks are 1.2b eachLMAO
Just run them in cheap hawks. Sure you'll die sometimes, but it's barely any lost isk.
Fucking abyssal blingers, I swear to god.
>>1899780>High tier AbyssNo.
>C3/C4 rattingC4 is miles above C3
>>1899741>why is it bad to miss out on 8-10 hours of production
>>1899780this isn't even close to accurate
>>1899883How do you survive while fielding that many assets?
>>1899976Are incursion groups still good?
PL literally leaving Panfam. Would be great to see the whole alliance fall apart.
>>1901797No idea. There was some drama a while back with some multiboxer sniping the mothership to end the incursions earlier but that was a while back. No idea what's happening now.
>>1901799Lol.
I'm sure pee el's both active players will be sorely missed.
>>1901799Why would that ever happen? PL is a retirement alliance that benefits from PH protection.
PL is the apotome of do nothing, win.
They likely have lost their J4Gs who care about that stuff and have only some paranoid schizos left who then decided to become elite PVP again.
>>1899883>because it only makes 500-600m an hour and in echange you're risking a 6b+ ship.the people actually making money from abyss are multiboxxing cheap Hawk fits and not caring if they lose a few.
>>1900394Being honest I havent done C4s since Marauders werent worth flying so good to know.
Last time I did them they were around 120mil/hr in a T3C and were almost not worth doing over just clearing C3s faster.
>>1902780I always called them the same thing interchangeably because they're the same. PL is PH, PH is PL.
As far as I can gather its a corp for their oldfags.
>>1900383>Fucking abyssal blingers, I swear to god.Yeah there's a small but really vocal subset of the playerbase that are obsessed with
>well ACKSHUALLY you should NEVER do XYZ unless you spend at LEAST 5-15bil on a fit because you're missing out on 2% extra dps!!!11of cringelords but its easy to ignore them because they're usually retards.
abyssal filaments in highsec were a mistake
Qrd on absolute order? I saw redditors and literal they/them transsexuals seething about it but that's about all I know
>>1903324They spam invite new players from the Rookie Help Channel and Career Agent systems.
New players dont know any better so they're happy to join whatever 'guild' invites them.
They just use them for easy highsec tax money and to bolster numbers for whatever actual retarded shit they do.
Their nullsec leadership are actual heil hitler nazis but they're really bad at the game so everyone just ignores them.
>>1903324Just another generic nullblob but they larp as fascists so reddit hates them.
>>1903324They larp as nazis to fun in nullsec for fun, there's nothing else particularly remarkable about them.
>>1903325 >>1903328 >>1903348 This would almost sound like based fun havers if not for the newfag tax part.
>>1903356The biggest problem with them is that they just suck at the game hard. Not just in terms of combat skills/FCing/doctrines but in nearly every aspect. Logistics, industry, general game knowledge and on top of that they have a terrible internal organization. Quite a few of their members have big ego as well with no skill to back it up.
I would welcome actual fucking nazis into the game at this point. Anything, ANYTHING to make the global conflict more spicy. HATRED and spite is what actually motivates people to fight and put everything at the stake, but every retarded redditnigger in this game just wants to "chill" and sing fucking Kumbaya, and then they wonder where all the good conflict has gone. The game needs an actual, influental, skilled and organized bad guy to drive conflict but AO is not it. The closest thing currently is FRAT but they are in CNTZ so nothing is gonna happen off of that.
