The null sec cartel RMT machines can't control wh's and high sec directly, so they launched a meta war (high sec has been attacked for last 3 years), and are achieving results.Vince Snettertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00645892172885793532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068894994922552535.post-53669912933016416002015-10-29T10:48:08.928+11:002015-10-29T10:48:08.928+11:00I too am looking into wormholes, but I think the a...I too am looking into wormholes, but I think the assumption that cap escalations will stay the same post capital changes is flawed. <br /><br />Also confirmed in Sugar Kyle's blog (http://www.lowseclifestyle.com/2015/10/eve-vegas-2015-pve-round-table.html) regarding a round table in Vegas concerning PVE:<br /><br />Q: Cap escalations will be even harder?<br />A: We will have a dev blog about capital escalations.<br /><br />That of itself and in itself is neither here nor there - just a reminder that the best laid plans of mice and capsuleers are all subject to the plans of CCP.<br /><br />This of course not to say that you (or I) should do nothing in the mean time - just by way of a heads up!Absence of Substancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15123170586817254667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068894994922552535.post-41667895857831666472015-10-29T10:37:07.027+11:002015-10-29T10:37:07.027+11:00"We want to get the number of sleepers down b..."We want to get the number of sleepers down before the logi runs out of capacitor"<br />One improvement to Jack's method is to add a medium and some small energy vampires to the Loki. Have the Loki drain from the Archon and then the Archon only uses one cap transfer. If the Archon only uses what he needs to keep people up, he should never run out of cap. If you need a Archon pilot, let me know.<br /><br />As for the post cap rebalance, they mentioned 3 types of fighters, light, support, and heavy. If carriers get heavy, them maybe the Loki still has a purpose and these heavy fighters will be able to hit webbed BSs.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08546634564617610168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068894994922552535.post-77526642960427569112015-10-29T00:02:00.389+11:002015-10-29T00:02:00.389+11:00It will certainly change but I dont see them going...It will certainly change but I dont see them going away. I know,a far from max skill thanny pilot that would solo escalate successfully. The new drobe boatvis likely as capeable as the old. Add in a remote rep ball of subcaps or logi plus high tank ships and even if all the dreads do is activate the waves it can still get done. Time to complete will andcsone silly dual box games will stop but that is not terrible. The bigger change imo is when offgrid warfare links go away. Also they said something about increasing targeting range, if so there are l8hely some 350km solutions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068894994922552535.post-42909602281804206232015-10-28T22:59:20.620+11:002015-10-28T22:59:20.620+11:00You are correct, the now proposed high angle weapo...You are correct, the now proposed high angle weapon platform is useless.<br />It will not be used in pve or pvp.<br />Unless you change it that it still does 10 k dps but with the limit of 2k dps per ship.<br />So that way you could attack 5 targets at once with 2k dps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
