Hello, i would like to raise up this question, why do shuttles needs perma bubble nullification exactly?
This is how we promote high risk high reward gameplay in the supposed to be “dangerous” part of the Eve universe?
So far all i see is just a safe way to travel to and from pick up whatever you want ( in this case missions) and do it with the appropriate ship elsewhere.Being able to avoid all and all interception attempt.
By all means, if CCP’s plan is to turn the Tranquility server into a Chinese botfarm like Serenity was, then throw in the towel and shut it down, its okay but at least be honest about it, because right now, this is the direction most people see who long time players and have knowledge about the history of the game
Take away the role bonus, and give them one single highslot, give bonus to fitting so it could fit only that, without reactivation bonus. Otherwise, take it away completely, we have enough ship that can use module and has its pros and cons.
You are welcome to agree or disagree with me, this is a personal opinion of mine.
this is just a complet ignorable RANT ! and i was ready to type some nice sheet for you about this
but then you came up with this ! you still 100% bubble immune on this site but its not a passive bonus anymore ! like it, would love to see this implementet …
next sentance is RANT again but its good for you i just read these sentance
Shuttles are immune to warp-bubbles because their Kierse retrogrative matrices signature is too small for the bubble to contain. This is pretty basic physics.
Yes, exactly this is their plan and they have begun with it by designing shuttles they way they are! Evil!
More seriously… it’s a goddamn shuttle. Can’t understand why people want to have “ways to intercept” every single ant crawling on the way. If you want to do PvP, there are plenty of options. Just grab yourselfes some cruiser sized ships and go roam somewhere, you will find more opponents than you can chew. Let players at least move manually from A → B without constantly landing in camps of others grinding “victories” with their bubbles+decloakcans+fasttacklers. If you can’t stand even a shuttle escaping you, go smartbomb it. It’s not like they are invulnerable.
I think the true reason for this thread to be made by OP is he tried to catch a shuttle but failed and the pilot just laughed at his sad attempt before leaving system.
I ahve been away a bit but I guess…some NPC 0.0 runners are shuttling in the quest and swapping to the pve ship not in the NPC 0.0 system? Long ago when level 5’s missions where sometime in hi-sec you’d jsut inty out to low sec for the quest. that went away loooong ago though.
The “bots” will jsut blow up shuttles till they clear lol. the ratting/mission ship is still out there. One would want to find that I’d think.
I am doubtings shuttles are carrying high price loot A few smartbombing rokh’s will make that a loss real fast. If I were a NPC 0.0 runner for this stuff…that be moved with a jump capable ship to get to empire a bit faster.
