      • This replaces the requirement to notify your corporation when selling a character.
      • NOTE: When this change occurs all character transfers from 2007 onward will be listed.

    WH Explorers - More balls than you.

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 01:28 PM PST

    Here is to the wormhole explorers!

    The pilots who wander into the spooky spaces!

    They know that Around every corner is 10 cloaked pilots who will kill them but they go anyway. They're driven by greed, wonder, and other reasons only an explorer can fully understand.

    They have no Mega Corp super umbrella and they don't need one. All they need is their cheap frigate, a set of Core I scanner probes and a hacking module and they can eek out a living desecrating culturally sensitive landmarks. Many don't even have a cloak module. (way more balls than you)

    They rarely cry over their losses even when those losses are significant to them. They re-ship and get right back out there.

    So while you mega corp members are hiding out in your stations due to the most recent war declaration remember these pilots wandering around the spooky spaces. Nothing stops them. Not me, Not WiNGSPAN and not your mega corp.

    More balls than the NBA... More balls than a clown juggling contest... MORE BALLS THAN EVEN CHUCK-E-CHEESE's BALL PIT! (That is a lot of balls)

    Ninja Salvage (not pvp baiting) builds

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 10:06 PM PST

    I enjoy Salvaging, don't know why, and my job offers me a lot of half-attention time where I can keep one eye on the game screen.

    Combat stuff doesn't work for it, but high chill activities like mining and salvaging work.

    My first tactic will be hopping on the no it's and asking the alliance/corp if anyone is ratting and not salvaging so I can follow them around.

    But if I cant find anyone then I will ninja Salvage. I don't have any interest in pvp baiting.

    Any suggested fits out there?

    Templis CALSF responds to CONCORD's uncalled aggression ON Caldari loyalists

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 12:35 PM PST

    CONCORD, an entity that is supposed to be neutral, upholding the fragile peace and laws that protect New Edens high security space and eases tensions between empires. For a while I believed in the idea that the inner workings of CONCORD was controlled equally by all the empires, but their newest crusade against Caldari Loyalist confirms that they are just another Gallente puppet. In order to know why this is, you have to know our side of the story.

     

    Templis CALSF was formerly known as Templis Dragonaur. We are loyal only to the State and have worked hard to keep the tyrannical corrupt Gallente from fulling taking the Caldari region of Black Rise until our departure. Our name change was forced years ago but we still hold out Dragonaur brothers in close regard.

     

    But now CONCORD has put themselves into a matter which does not involve them, calling for anyone to attack the innocent Caldari loyalists. THIS WILL NOT STAND. Templis CALSF will stand by the Templis Dragonaur, and anybody found attacking them will face swift retaliation regardless of your alignments to the State.

     

    FOR THE STATE

    First impression of a Dragonaur site

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 09:49 AM PST

    For the record, I almost never do PVE, I usually hunt in lowsec or w-space. With the opportunity of hunting mission runners in Lowsec, I needed to see what they were up against so I decided to run a Dragonaur site with a dual-rep Sacrilege.

    These are gated Anomalies, only approved ships may enter.

    4 waves of Caldari ships that will try to stay 30-40 km from you.

    All of them can point or web/scram. The Destroyers will target your drones first.

    As far as I could tell, all are AB fit and my Nosferatu was not collecting any cap.

    I could tank the initial damage with my MAAR and T2 MAR but needed the ADC a couple of time when I got scram-webbed.

    Uniform resist in shields, some have kinetic/explosive holes in armor.

    Manticore in 3rd wave might be bad news for big ships.

    Things got pretty stressful in 4th wave when I ran out of cap charges.

    And then the boss comes in with a Nightmare during the middle of the 4th wave and neuted me HARD from 30 km away.

    Barely managed to escape with 8% structure left.

    I went home for more drones + cap charges and reentered the site...It started over from Wave #1.

    Losses to Templis Dragonaurs

    Losses to final boss

    TLDR Very hard to run solo.

    Some newbie questions

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 09:39 PM PST

    1) I made 15 million (after selling at Hek) by getting into wormhole and hacking some data sites and Sansha Remains/Ruins. It took me nearly 2 hours, but I was expecting quite more money wise... Are all wormholes like that or was i just unlucky with RNG?

    2) I am currently flying Heron, would like to progress to something more sneaky later on (I got killed yesterday in lowsec even after warping into deep away from gates). What ships are there for a newbie which are better than Heron?

    3) Any tips for an explorer? So far I know how to create safes (learned it right after dewth in lowsec) and use D scan. Now slowly making my way toward having a jump clone so i can store my main dude with implants on station while I explore in jump clone.

    4) If i join a corp later on, will my explorer skills come to use or are they only useful for solo play?

    Thanks

    Eve Online Dragonaur Blitz Dungeon (Full Alpha Mode)

    Posted: 17 Jan 2020 01:43 AM PST

    I'm wanting to work for CCP

    Posted: 17 Jan 2020 01:37 AM PST

    I'm a 17 year old in Australia wanting to work for CCP.

    I'm 17, I go to a selective school (Perth Modern) that you have to pass an exam to get into. My predicted ATAR is 89.6 - ATAR is the score you get from your final exams (99.95 is the highest possible score, so I'm in the top 10.4% of year 12 students).

    I currently do these subjects at school: Maths Methods (second highest maths course) Computer Science Ancient History Physics Chemistry English Literature Photography

    After school, I plan to do a double major in game development and machine learning - this will take me 3 years. I am likely to get a scholarship to a university (the required atar for the course is 70, which is already guaranteed really) in Victoria, Australia, to do this. I'm wondering if I should go to university in Australia or in Europe (uni in Aus is verrrry expensive :(().

    It is one of my dreams to work for a company like CCP. Eve is the game that made me get into gaming and it also made me want to become a game developer. Growing up, my parents aren't very approving of games (a bit more now, but still not big fans). My parents don't like Let's Players and when one of my friends said to them that he wanted to be games developer (I was 10) they said to me "Well he's going to be a professional couch potato then". I never really showed much interest in game development (but I still played games) until 2018. I was getting badly bullied at school, my grades weren't as good as I thought they should be and I didn't know what I wanted to do in life. My computer science teacher, who is a lifelong Eve online fan, introduced me to the wonders of programming and, as someone who likes tinkering and with an inquisitive mind, it kindled my interest.

    I'm going to reach for the stars, and I'd like to know what the best way to get there is.

    Happy flying everyone!

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 07:33 PM PST

    About joining Eve...

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 03:10 PM PST

    Hi, nobby here. As many, I got into this game some days ago after hearing all those amazing histories about Eve, and beeing a science fiction fan as I am i thought of giving it a try, and liked it so far! My only issue is that after some digging for guides and info about the game I came across all those moments in Eve where the community was... Not what I want to be part of. Not saying that beeing an Eve player equals beeing a bad person, but I want to know if it's worth advancing knowing that this seems to be a reality in this game

    EDIT: I should say I'm quite paranoic about everything about getting on touch with people and maybe this post is just me making a mountain out of a veldspard ore, idk

    CCPlease, can we get Alliance level Decorations added finally?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 11:29 PM PST

    Alliances that work together should be able to receive Decorations together. Having to create the same Decoration across multiple corps is completely unnecessary. We should be able to award members of our alliances the same award, no matter what corp they belong to.

    I found requests for this as old as 2008!

    Minmatar PvE

    Posted: 16 Jan 2020 02:55 PM PST

    Can some one link me a fit for FULL clearing T4 missions ? After reading posts and builds it seems Vargur would be the best full clear option.

    Other builds seem to focus on blitzing which I am not interested in doing. Vargur is very expensive and takes a long time to train so if this is not the only FULL clear option for Projectile Turret builds please share a link.

    Cheers !

    I like new events! They said you need heavy missile ship for this one.

    Also i love the loot:
