    CCP Official - Stuck in Rock, Not a Bug, No Reimbursement - Eve Partner Dies at Gate Camp, Reimbursable JF

    Posted: 01 Feb 2021 03:36 PM PST

    I ran into an interesting issue over a week ago. I was running a few abyssal sites and after clearing the origin gate room an extractor node was close by. As I was looting the wreck my gila got trapped inside the rock. I spent 6 minutes trying to manually pilot out and taking screenshots with no success. I submitted a ticket along with the screenshots and didn't receive a reply for over a week.

    I was then told "I'm afraid that collision into a structure is not currently considered abnormal or otherwise a bug, so it does not constitute grounds for reimbursement in and of itself. Each object in the EVE universe is not limited to the contours that you see, but to a sphere of a certain radius. Unfortunately, there is always a risk of being stuck in a structure if you approach an object so much that you find yourself within its sphere, and this consequence of the nature of objects in the universe cannot be corrected." by GM Arkarian.

    I was a bit miffed that the games physics engine failing and trapping my ship is apparently not considered abnormal or a bug. I just let it go without responding.

    Then I was watching an Eve Partner and streamer earlier. They mentioned that the Jump Freighter they lost to a gate camp, by being bumped off gate coming out of warp, received reimbursement. I decided that maybe I should inquire on my ticket once more.

    GM ARKARIAN once again advised that a ship getting stuck inside a rock isn't a bug and ignored my inquiries into a streamer getting reimbursement for a gate camp. He then transferred my ticket to GM ENDYMION who for the third time told me that a ship getting stuck inside a rock wasn't considered a bug.

    It's CCP official boys, game physics breaking and trapping you in a rock - not a bug. Eve Partner dying to a gate camp - reimbursable.

    JF in question - https://zkillboard.com/kill/90202974/ - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/888095489 Looks like Eve Partner comes with some hidden benefits

    Side quest / Filler episode

    Posted: 01 Feb 2021 06:19 PM PST

    So you want to solo kill carriers with your cruiser and impress the space ladies?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2021 05:09 AM PST

    Like this: 1,2,3,4.

    Who are you?

    My name is Kozunak Ozuwara and for the past two years my hobby inside my hobby was hunting and annoying totally legit players who enjoy perfect reactions and impeccable intel but for some reason fall for the same traps over and over again. I will call them bots from now on because it's shorter and I like how it sounds. During these years I caught and killed 20+ carriers, 50+ battleships and 500+ VNIs, Ishtars, Gilas and Myrmidons with frigates/cruisers/dreads almost exclusively solo.

    How to find these targets?

    In this post I will focus on carriers but the principles are basically the same for subcaps. After blackout and the carrier nerfs they are a lot more rare overall but they are still out there, you just have to work a bit harder to find them.

    Six signs that krabbing carrier you found in that dead end system might be a bot.

    1.New character made in the last month or two.

    2.Almost no killboard activity, maybe lost an ishtar or a gila while learning the cap skills if not injected. 99% red killboard.

    3.Warps to a small POS without guns or a safe at a citadel (often times without a fort in system) every time you enter local and even before you scan him down.

    4.Does not talk or accept fleet. (Some do but they die very quickly and don't come back)

    5.Usually in a Chinese or Russian renter alliance. (There are exceptions of course)

    6.Usually in northern Frat controlled space or the southern swamps (Period Basis, Paragon Soul, Feythabolis and Omist)

    I think I found one, now what?

    For the purpose of this post I will give as an example this legit player:1. When I found him he was krabbing from a POS, was not accepting my fleet invites (grr) and was the cheap version that warps to the same Haven at constant time intervals (7 minutes) until the site is done (yummy). I will also assume that you don't have a ceptor/dictor alt and want to do it solo.

    1: Enter local and try to Dscan what site he is in. If you are too slow and miss it you can check for wrecks and freshly damaged NPCs, this hints where he was at. If he is in a POS and your Dscan skills are lacking you can also bookmark the POS and log off there to see which site he is warping from.

    2: Now that you know which site he is at you need to figure out the timer. This part is pretty simple, just enter/leave local until you find the exact time he lands in the site. This is your solo ass best chance to catch him since carriers are slow to align and warp. You want to be where he will be before he gets there.

    3: Figure out a fit that can kill it without dying. If the bot does not attack you once tackled but just alligns towards the POS/citadel you can theoretically kill it with 1 frigate (example), although that takes some time and you can still die or get pushed away from the NPCs in the site. The carrier in this example though was coded to attack you once tackled so I had to use something that can tank it. I wanted to see what is the cheapest possible fit I can do it with so I chose a T2 fit HAC with the appropriate natural resists because I assumes he only has one type of fighters on him with the damage type that I can tank. A 300m Deimos with T2 reppers, a Kinetic rig and a Reactive Hardener pushed close to 95% kinetic resists which made me practicaly invulnerable to his Dragonflies.

    4: Depending on your PC (mine is a toaster and i regularly have 1 minute log in screens) you can either do a log-offski trap in his site and catch him this way or if there is a gate near his site wait in the next system and warp in on him right as he is landing. Now that you got him you just hope that nobody enters local during the 30 minutes of bashing and ruin your fun. I've had cases that I had to let go a carrier that I got to half hull because someone else was snooping around and catch him 2 hours later again and finish him off.

    5: ?????

    6: Profit!

    Important Notes:

    These examples work for lonely bots in dead end systems or just systems out of the way. Systems with heavy traffic are almost impossible to pull this off, in that case you will need some friends to finish the cap quickly.

    In my experience bots hate mobile bubbles and if they see them on d-scan they just don't undock/warp. They might work if the site he is warping to is outside his initial d-scan range but i personally had 0 success with them.

    Some bots have a randomised timer and warp to different sites every time. These are still catchable just a bit more difficult and require more patience (autism). Say there are five Havens in system and he warps to a seemingly random one every time, even if you camp only one site you still have a 20% chance to catch him given enough time.

    Special thanks

    Big thanks to my awesome friend u/Martoyo who always came to help when I needed it. Thanks to Tob Retnuh for the inspiration to try bot hunting in the first place. And a big shout out to all you other bot hunters doing CCP's work every day!

    Bonus

    A bonus meme video my friend made about our first carrier caught almost 2 years ago.

    P.S. ISK donations to the Koz' "anti-totally legit players who enjoy perfect reactions and impeccable intel but for some reason fall for the same traps over and over again" fund are always welcome.

    A mild annoyance

    Posted: 02 Feb 2021 12:31 AM PST

    So when I launch the game the game launcher window opens at a random size. Sometimes it's way bigger than my screen and I have to drag it in-between screens to make it smaller. Does this happen to anyone else?

    Triglavians - What do you figure they're grooming us for?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2021 03:03 PM PST

    Are we their frontline against sleepers and drifters? Are we an ally who also happens to be the middle ground between them and the drifters? Are we earning the right to be lifted from one stage of advancement to the next? Is paying us to kill their enemies just more efficient than dealing with us themselves?

    Resource for overall strategy?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2021 06:46 PM PST

    Is there a good resource for learning about the dimensions of the snake pit when it comes to strategic questions of corps/alliances/holding & taking territory? I see many things that look like traditional strategy (aka chokepoints) and game mechanics that prevent counters (the mechanics utterly prohibit Hannibal taking elephants through the Alps).

    I'd like to really understand how Eve game mechanics and traditional military strategy interface.

    How come some player structures allow you to repair for free?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2021 04:54 PM PST

    I don't get it. Some player structures you have to pay for repairs but then others it's free. I suppose it's prob cause it's like free income so the station owner can choose to be nice and not make people pay them.

    Wanting to get into/back into Eve looking for advice or help

    Posted: 01 Feb 2021 03:29 PM PST

    Hey everyone,

    I am for all intents and purposes still classified as a new bro. I have jumped into Eve on and off over the years but never really got that much into the game. I know there is so much to offer, see, and do in this game. I would love to learn more about what there is to offer.

    The last time I played I believe I had joined some low-sec/null-sec moon mining corp and I have no idea what happens with my character or my items that I had stored at the space station. If anyone could help me understand what happens to all that stuff I would appreciate it.

    Thanks for any and all replies and looking forward to maybe running into someone o7
