    Everything is Shield HAC Meta, Muninn/Eagle/Cerberus Fleets get boring...

    Posted: 12 Feb 2021 10:46 PM PST

    So for a while we were fighting Goons who were flying MWD Armored Sacrilege HAC fleets, and PH was using the epic ABing Bean Bricks, but it seems that MWD shield HACs just have an awesome advantage, so much that I almost never see Armor HACs, or even armor sub capitals (BC down some BS fleets are armored still). In HACs online, it hurts me that we only see Muninns, Eagles, and Cerbs. I understand that Vagabonds and Deimos are bonused better for small gang, rather than big fleets, but even the Ishtar fleets have become few and far between. Sacrilege and Zealot fleets are non-existent. I think one issue of this is that the MWD meta changed when the took away the -25% shield HP penalty from it. MWDs were supposed to make armor ships fast enough to keep up in combat with lighter and more agile shield ships. Would adding the -25% shield penalty to MWDs fix the issue or would it just remove the shield ships from the meta entirely?

    I'm FEDUP Part 2: "Delve Is Our Future"

    Posted: 12 Feb 2021 06:51 AM PST

    Whew. I didn't realize my first thread would blow up so much. I was unaware that so many people cared about the plight of a small nullsec alliance. It didn't take long until our Discord was very abuzz with activity.

    Before long, both main leadership figures, Silver and Kontra put out statements trying to debase me as a Hooligans/GSF psyop. They are as follows, interpret them as you will.

    Kontra

    Silver

    I would like to dive into a few of the key points of these statements, namely Kontra's. He says "If some spy wants to bo hoo about how feduops [sic] is a single azbel I can't help but laugh." Let me be clear. We have given up our home with no more than a few shots fired and hardly a fleet pinged. Moons, Azbels, Fortizars, IHubs, our T2 refine tatara, all gone. Billions in alliance assets have died, and now individual corps are losing industrial parks and other structures completely uncontested. This is all done "in the name of Delve." Silver has noted several times, in ping after ping that Delve is the win condition for FEDUP, and all the pain at home is worth it because there is systems waiting for us, if we just push a little harder in the war.

    But recent events have led me to believe that much like we have yet to find Real Delve, Legacy command has yet to find space for FEDUP either. What initially started as maybe a few fun EU fleets, as noted on this ping from January 26th has turned into daily pings to go rat and mine in the few systems we have sieged in Fountain as we try to secure a new home (notably, not in Delve). It almost feels like a fun "deployment" to drum up enthusiasm, but there is nothing fun about fighting a pan-TZ war while everything we've left behind continues to burn daily. Additionally, pings from leadership say that Fountain is the primary mission, but it feels like every day we get pinged to belay Fountain activities to fold into Voltron instead. This wishy-washy communication leaves me wondering whether or not we are truly useful to Legacy beyond grinding a region they don't want to.

    It's my understanding that Warped Intentions bailed from Immensea shortly after we did, (leaving R-R alone to die), but it seems they were given preferential treatment over us all throughout the course of the Immensea conflict. Legacy formed several fleets to defend their infrastructure, and have been as recently as 2 days ago, yet FEDUP was left out to dry. It's also my understanding that Warped Intentions was moved to a safe and secure pocket where they are guarded by TEST in Period Basis. Yet, we've been left alone to die in Fountain, having to maintain everything ourselves, while also showing up to coalition fleets on the warfront and in Catch (to defend Warped Intentions assets, no less).

    I'll admit, the initial Brave leaks invigorated me to share my experience, as I feared being shouted down by the PAPI downvote blob. But after seeing Brave also falling on the proverbial sword for TEST, I understand that I am not alone.

    PSA: You only need to do 2.22 Event Data Sites in order to get all of the Event Rewards.

    Posted: 12 Feb 2021 02:43 PM PST

    It says right there in the event description "repeatable" so I'm sure most of you already know this, but I didn't notice until I got spooked out of a site and came back so I thought I'd post.

    Each site is worth 90 points.

    Warp in to the site, claim your points.
    Hack one can, claim your points.
    Warp out of the site.
    Warp back into the site, claim your points.
    Hack one more can, claim your points.
    Warp out of the site.
    Rinse and repeat.

    2 sites gets you the Cynabal Skin, if you want the Machariel skin - just do one can on your third site then warp out and warp back in and you're done.

    Which is good because the loot in the sites are absolute trash.

    How EVE Online is built - CCP Technical Director of Infrastructure

    papi gets spanked (again) despite outnumbering (again).

    Posted: 12 Feb 2021 05:36 AM PST

    https://br.evetools.org/br/602681fe06fbf5001b4a2127

    AAR : papi was refing a jammer I believe in 5BTK, first reflex as we warp in is to warp out because not ounumbering 3 to 1. Fight erupts as papi gets trapped along side 3 systems and end up betting memed despite having 3 FCs vs 1 Dave Archer.

    Was a fun fight, so much for not massively outnumbering us and 1DQ by Christmas.

    EDIT : Keep downvoting papi, at least that's one thing you have enough numbers for and are good at :)

    Hard Truths for Small-time Legacy Line Members

    Posted: 12 Feb 2021 09:42 AM PST

    Small-time Legacy line members:

    As a VNI-ratting, small-time Goon line member, I want to share some hard truths.

    Background:

    After the BRAVE leaks and FedUp rants of the last couple of days, I've finally come to understand something that has puzzled me about EVE Reddit for the last several weeks. Why is the PAPI brigade so hyped over Delve iHubs that the Imperium is quite obviously not contesting? Why are they so exultant in breaching Helm's Deep when we so obviously let them do so? Why do they seem to care so much when we so obviously don't? What's more, why do so many outsiders seem convinced that the Imperium is nearing some kind of breaking point when internally it's obvious that we're so clearly not?

    NOW I understand.

    There's hundreds and hundreds of small-time line members busting their ass for this war who are watching their own holdings go to shit. They've been told--and have believed--that if they just Trust the Plan, that they'll reach the promised land. And when the Imperium blasted PAPI in the ass in M2, and as their own space has burned barely contested, they've become fairly desperate for some validation that their sacrifice will all have been worth it. And so they cling to these stories they tell themselves.

    I get it now. And man, I feel bad for you guys.

    So let me tell you some hard truths.

    1) Delve is not Close to Falling.

    Sov wars are like chess. It doesn't matter whose piece sits on a particular square. What matters is who has the resources in place to take that square NEXT turn. And the turn after that. And the turn after that. And the fact of the matter is, the Imperium has concentrated in Delve--in 1DQ and supporting systems--the greatest concentration of supers and structures in the history of EVE. We're still here! As the war has progressed, we have contracted and contracted, but we have sacrificed very little of our actual strength--particularly our supercapital supremacy. The result is a super-concentrated bastion of might against which whole alliances would have to break themselves before it could ever fall. And if it doesn't fall--if you don't crush 1DQ and destroy our ability to project supercapital force in Delve--the minute you release the pressure, we have all the resources in place to retake every chess square you've taken without the slightest trouble.

    2) The Imperium is not Suffering.

    You look at DOTLAN, and you see all the space the Imperium has lost since the war began, and you think, "We're hurting them. We're getting there." The sad reality is this; this entire time--like every smart defender in the history of war--we have methodically, strategically, intentionally traded space for time. We've simply tightened our lines of defense and supply, making you work harder every day and making every day easier for us. Your attention is split all over the map. Your burning homes, endless fleets in Delve, move ops, ops to occupy new sov. Us? Our lives are easy. We kick back in the M2 hellcamp, or take the odd fleet in Delve, or go on a roam somewhere, or blap Ventures and Velators in YOUR home systems. Point is, we're not suffering. For years we dominated the MERs. Our stockpiles are deeper than yours. Our SRP is better than yours. And our day-to-day burden is easier than yours. We can do this all day.

    3) The Imperium is not Wavering

    I cannot underscore enough how confident Imperium line members are right now. How good we feel. How sure we are of ultimate victory. You have to understand how we see ourselves and this situation. We lived through SARANEN. We've already once before had all of EVE come take everything from us. We've lost everything and been hellcamped into a single, low-sec station. It doesn't get worse than that for a nullsec alliance! And yet we survived! We even thrived! Two years later we glassed the North in sweet revenge! You must understand what that history--what that journey we've lived through together--does to our mindset. We're a hardened, happy bunch of veteran motherfuckers. We are SO ready for this fight. We've been prepping for it for four years. And honestly, for us, this war has barely even started. All the sov bullshit of the last half year has just been the preliminaries. The real fighting starts when the supercap brawls start in the core systems (fights like M2), and we're extremely confident that we will continue to destroy your ass in those fights--like we did at M2. We have the home turf advantage. We have the overwhelming winning record in those fights. And we're fighting for our space. Literally, we'll fight to the last man and push it ALL THE WAY IN. Will you? Literally, will YOU sacrifice everything you have to beat us? Because that's what it's going to take.

    4) Our Leadership is Definitely, 100% Better than Yours.

    I've gotta tell you, those BRAVE leaks were an eye opener. Like, what in the actual fuck is this? How in the world can a 13,000-member alliance operate in this fashion? No definite objective. No clear plan to achieve it. No plan for how to provide the necessary resources. Uncoordinated. Disjointed. Chaotic. Holy shit. Believe me when I say, the Imperium is nothing--like, NOTHING--like this. The Imperium is better organized and better lead than billion-dollar COMPANIES and government agencies I've worked for in the real world. EVERYTHING is coordinated. Everything is strategically planned. Everything is provided for. The financing. The logistics. The training. The intelligence. The doctrines. The communication. The relationships. And it always comes back to us, the line members--making sure WE have everything we need to be successful. "CCP fucked up ratting? Here's what you should do instead. And here's the fit. And here's the fleet." Nothing is wasted. Nothing is selfish. Nothing is random. We don't have to "Trust the Plan." We simply execute our plans.

    Ask yourselves these questions:

    Why didn't the Imperium contest Helm's Deep?
    What do they know that you don't?
    How is it that SB-SQ showed up in Querious in the exact systems it would hurt BRAVE the most?
    How is it that right after that happened, BRAVE command comms got leaked?
    Have Imperium leaders know about BRAVE finances this whole time?
    Did they execute the SB-SQ deal and put them on BRAVE in Querious because they knew it would put BRAVE in an impossible situation?

    What else does the Imperium know that you don't? Who else in your leadership is betraying you?

    I can tell you, there will be losers in this war, and it won't be the wealthy leaders rolling in ISK. It will be the line members who burn themselves out and end up with nothing to show for it.

    I can't tell you what to do, but I will say this, whatever you do, put yourself and your own interests first.

    And remember, if it looks like shit and smells like shit, it's shit.
    Stop pretending it's not. Better to accept it and move on.

    Nullsec horrible income

    Posted: 12 Feb 2021 02:23 AM PST

    Hello just came back to the game and after doing some experimenting I've noticed I can make way more isk in highsec than I can in null. With ratting income at 40% of what it was and it not being worth it to rorqual mine. What's the point? To me it seems like your fighting for space that has little to no value. Y'all keep saying there going to improve it but it's been a year since they started all this and all they have done is nerf more income sources. Oh and I'm talking to the people who still need to make isk. Not the dudes with 100bil in the wallet who has 4 titans.

    2nd newest Imperium alliance seems to be in trouble...

    Posted: 13 Feb 2021 01:03 AM PST

    Bring back something that was removed a while ago...

    Posted: 13 Feb 2021 12:44 AM PST

    ... Which is the old Abyssal Arena you used to get at the end of abyssal pve sites.

    People enjoyed that content, some more, some less. Then CCP removed it and replaced it with those weird proving filaments. I am ok with having the proving ground filaments and the events, as these are easier accessible for newer players, but I have a problem with the fact that the old arena was removed.

    I know, not many players did the old arena, but for me that is not a vaild reason to remove it. I know, meta was stale, but that is the case in many other parts of the game. Check out Abyss tracker, you see there that like 70% of all PVE Abyssal sites are done by only one ship, the Gila. There, CCP does nothing and leaves everything as it is, which is fine. No removeal of the Abyss, no drastic changes, nothing.

    That arena was probably one of the best PVP content the game had. That got removed for no good reason at all. I mean, what speaks against having both variants of the arena? I.e. having the events and the arena at the end of PVE sites. That arena was dominated by Ikitursas and a few very good pilots and thus players avoided it. But now you could argue: " Hey, if you don't wanna get wrecked by a 5B Ikitursa, then do the events!"

    With the few people that did the old arena, it could be called a niche content, but other parts of the game fall in that category too, for example Level 5 Missions or Forward bases.

    I personally never really engaged in that arena, but I feel with those that are sad about that it is gone. I enjoyed watching Torvalds and Corrupteds stream about the old arena. I even remember Torvalds Tournament, which was great and significantly increased activity in the old arena.

    So CCPlz bring it back! Bring back the epic AT ship killmails, bring back the epic moments this arena had! I really do not understand what was really the reason to remove it. Also, who is on the CSM actually? I wanna bring it up to them.

    By the way, the red dot thing is also something that needs a look at.

    Fix Camera Bug!

    Posted: 12 Feb 2021 10:32 AM PST

    CCP every time something cool is happening in space the camera jams up and I have to spend 30 seconds fighting with it to regain control. Of course, by then it's usually over and it's all wasted effort. What's the point of having a great art department if you can't reliably *look at things*? I swear you guys fix 20 things every patch and somehow never get it working right. FIX YOUR GAME.
