LiamHaith Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 Could go for capital indy ships/Jump freighter
CAM Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 So are you guys mostly going down the route of mining?
Arreks Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 ^ Jump Freighter would be quite useful in the long run.. I had my indy commit suicide inside a wormhole so I'll be fitting him back out and bringing him over tonight.
LiamHaith Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 @CAM No, not at all. But as it currently stands, especially for lower SP Pilots, they can't always rat in low/null or have the ability to haul 50+ million ISK P/H so we've all got some form of mining proficiency if only to keep stocked up on crafting materials/add a buffer of semi-afk cashflow with little risk (especially for where we live at the moment) Ideally, my entire income will come from ratting/mission running. But until I get the fits I need to do L4-L5 missions (and the standing too, mind) I need some form of generator, mining fills the needs. @Garacesh mines because his main can basically only fly Frigates and ghetto fit Battlecruisers (so he's in the same boat as me) and @halbaradkenafin has a miner because they're useful alts to have.
halbaradkenafin Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 @halbaradkenafin has a miner because they're useful alts to have. And because battleship mining fills up too quickly, plus I had a freighter alt sitting on a spare account and figured I'd put it to some use.
LiamHaith Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 Plus, @CAM don't forget that the mining characters are just alts. So they're a filler for whilst our mains are doing other stuff. If I'm doing a mission where I know I don't need to concentrate, I can mine at the same time. It's not much but even 1mil p/h mining is an extra 1 mil that I wouldn't have had.
Arreks Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 I'm a fabulous gentleman now. Also yeah, my indy was originally my main but then I switched to mission running and then pvp so the indy is now just for isk.
Arreks Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Ooooh. Next expansion is Citadels.. player owned stations confirmed?
Garacesh Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) Ooh I'll have to give that a watch at lunch. FYI. Guize. 9:00pm (ish) tonight (8pm EVE time). Fleet time. Ghetto-fit whatever (Rule #1). Bring booze if you like. Let's go a-huntin' Edited September 18, 2015 by Garacesh
halbaradkenafin Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 FYI. Guize. 9:00pm (ish) tonight. Fleet time. Ghetto-fit whatever (Rule #1). Bring booze if you like. Let's go a-huntin' Real 9 pm or Server 9 pm? I'll figure out what I want to fly later, might go for a destroyer of some sort to keep it small and fast (probably not a T3 destroyer though). I guess I could go with a dictor to give us the option of catching things on gates.
Garacesh Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Touché. Our 9pm. 8pm EVE Time. I've ghettofit my Stabber and will be taking that with me. Gonna try and drag the newer guys with us too. They were on TS when we discussed it last night.
halbaradkenafin Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I'll do some research on the changes to dictors since I last used them, I'll probably bring a Sabre as I recall they were pretty good and not likely to have been nerfed too much.
LiamHaith Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 If you're going Dictor, then I'll probably not bring my 'ceptor (which was my original plan) since we'll already have a tackle and we're going to need someone doing damage (we both know @Garacesh doesn't hit hard). Terrex is bringing a Caracal with RLM2s I believe which should be a nice boost to DPS. I might bring an amarr ship since I doubt we're going to have any Logistics anyway so repping won't be given.

I wouldn't bother with a logi unless it's a logi frig in this size fleet, even then we'd much rather have the dps than a bit more repping as people can easily fit a reasonable local tank (even a SAR or MSB/MASB should keep people going). No harm in having a bit extra tackle, if I bring a Sabre then I should have some dps (haven't looked at numbers for a while but I'd guess ~300dps or more)
LiamHaith Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I doubt you'd be quite that high in a Sabre. They're only Hictors and that damage is very similar to a T3D level of DPS. My Harbinger isn't much higher than 300 But yeah, I'm planning on either tackling or fetching DPS. Depends how well your sabre is fitted for tackling or if you're DPS focus I guess. We'll figure it out before 9pm anyway. For anyone who doesn't know, we don't start the fleet at 9pm, we're sitting on the undock making our first jump towards Null at 9pm. (GMT) Everyone in Corp should come along, if only in frigates to explore the PvP universe.
Garacesh Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 (we both know @Garacesh doesn't hit hard). Because I'm a tackler, usually xP Bugger off lol
LiamHaith Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Even tonight, in your stabber, you're just going to be useless
Garacesh Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Fine, I'll kit out The Friend Ship and bring that, then. How's that?
LiamHaith Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Don't. You. Dare. NEVER take the Friend Ship from it's sacred shrine. If we lose it, the corp disbands.
Garacesh Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 A useless item that I got as part of my n00b starter pack. It's a 3m3 item called 'The Friend Ship'. The description is something like 'The best ship in New Eden'. It's not flyable. It's not an actual ship. But I put it in the Corp's ships hangar for the luls. Eve Market link
Arreks Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I'm going out for dinner tonight but when I get back from that I'll join, may be late to the party though
halbaradkenafin Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I'm going out for dinner tonight but when I get back from that I'll join, may be late to the party though I'm sure we can always go out again and see how many ships we can lose.
LiamH Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Just remember that dictors cant bubble in low sec so you might still want a inty to tackle there and snag people burning out of bubbles with webs. Depending on when you last played a dictor they have changed the bubble rules. They now don't give agro timers, so you can bubble one side of the gate and if they burn back you can jump through and bubble the other side assuming you haven't fired at them. I think you can get ~250 dps out of a sabre with EMP and a dmg mod last i checked, less if you drop a gun for a cloak. Maybe some day i will get a Alt in to fly with you guys, busy house moving at the moment though.
Garacesh Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Maybe some day i will get a Alt in to fly with you guys, busy house moving at the moment though. Not good enough. New house + Old house = 2 internet connections available to you
