It seems you dont quite understand what MWD & Cloak trick is for. It is not to move in cloak but to warp away in 10 sec no matter your align time while you are cloaked during that 10 sec align time (MWD cycle).

No wonder why I avoid the forum’s. You dont even know what ships do what. A blockade runner can warp cloaked. A DST cannot. Active a MWD then cloak, not the other way around, your ship cloaks. You lose 75% velocity. Before the mwd cycle finishes your dst never even got to full speed. Literally moved it 1000 max. And now its cloaked… so everone burns to your location to uncloak you.

Now, if they dont find you, you wait it out. If you align then uncloak. You still have to get to speed before warp. If you uncloak, then mwd, then warp they will still tackle since your sig is battleship size. If you think you can just mjd. That aint going to happen. Theyre most likely in scram range.

Thus me asking if you even undock

The why did you claim above to use MWD/Cloak trick with a Blockade Runner?

That is a pretty dumb use of MWD/Cloak trick and suggests a significant lack of knowledge of mechanics and/or experience.

Not trying to defend him, but can’t he just confused DSTs with BRs? I never remember which is which and I can fly both. When I’m subbed, at least. I’m not really following this anymore.

You can’t cloak if someone is targeting you.

So you’d rather prove your incompetence once again than learn how and why cloak and mwd trick works…
Ok.
Last try:

No, you.

It is a well known fact that this kind of tactics is a suicide, as very few people will be willing to pay more than they were before inside your client base. Meanwhile, a part of it will go upset and leave.

It’s possible to put an “abusive” price on something at the very beginning, if you manage to convince clients with whatever method. However, rising up price afterwards almost always fail.

Those “pencil pushers” might only think about the money, yes, but this is actually the reason why your reasonning is strange. People who are interested by money do not risk themself in maneuver that are very well known to mostly backfire without actual financial gain.

They might be trying to manipulate the game in a certain purpose, but that’s certainly not “selling more PLEX”. As others already pointed-out in the thread, if this was the goal, they had a tons of much better methods at their disposal.

LOL. You have no idea how Cloak+MWD works. Please do yourself a favour and learn how this stuff works instead of wasting your and everybody else’s time making a fool of yourself:

As others have pointed out, you are doing it backwards. Maybe that’s why you don’t have much success.

Agree

Not necessarily true, if there’s content to spend that wealth.

Wrong, every activity has its role in the game balance and all are tied up.

If the game had no pve activity then what? No industry? no player driven economy? how to buy a ship? where to get isk to buy a ship? the game would turn into a PvP arena? think it would be a shitty game compared with what eve is now (. Even with all the bad stuff we still have in game.)

Kill anything… the mwd + cloak trick is about poor gatecamps, for the good ones you have to sacrifice your scout. But that’s theory only, i’ve never undocked.

Interceptor can point you in 1s.
you need 8s to activate mjd?

Good luck with mjd

you do know you can MJD while pointed right?

Disruptors yes. Warp scrams no.

It comes down to fits and luck. Given DST’s start at +2 Warp strength, its not hard to get it to 4, so even the best +3 Scrams won’t stop it.

Understandable.

But PLEX isn’t going up in price. Drum roll.

I will try to put this in simple terms for you.

If your ship costs 100 isk today and 100 PLEX costs 100 units of real outside the game money and equals 100 isk.

To replace your ship it will cost 100 units of real outside the game money and CCP gets that money.

If the price of your ship increases to 200 isk and 100 PLEX decreases in value to 50 isk and still costs 100 units of real outside the game money.

To replace your ship it will cost 400 units of real outside the game money and CCP gets that money.
