Conscious Interruption Problem

Communications Center General Discussion
182

If you really want to miff the Drifter site runners off, leave an MTU behind and then leave the site after about 50 wrecks when a Cruiser farmer shows up.

Warp out right after they warp in. The site despawns leaving them with a field of wrecks.

Since you are the controller of the site it is in the best interest of the Cruiser Farmers to help the Frigate Farmer farm the site for around ten minutes and then abandon the wrecks to the Frigate Farmer as a pass key to taking out the Cruiser, whenever the Frigate farmer decides that they have enough wrecks from the site of course.

It’s A Bonus With Hay.

I found my Sunesis BPC and I’ll try to stop bitching now :smiley:

Have you run a HS site since DT? At least in HS, the site lifetime has been nerfed. I can get 5-10 frigates with Gila before they all bail out.

Patch notes: “PvE: Fixed the site timer in Operation: Conscious Interruption to prevent infinite NPC spawns.”

Yeah, and no mention of the other sites that spawn in low and null sec space.

:thinking:

By the way, do all the sites spawn in w-space?

Personally I enjoyed being able to farm the frigs and kill the cruiser at my leisure. I don’t like the “fix” CCP applied…if you can call it a “fix.” The cruiser leaves to quickly IMO. I had no problems with the event before the patch using 2 Orthrus with rapid launchers, fury missiles, np.

Now the event is lame and I have lost interest…GG CCP!

I was previously able to kill the Drifter with two Gilas. Now it warps off before I can even get it into hull.

Now it’s impossible to do.
I’ll try some other fits, but it is ultra hard, even with all to level 5, i can’t kill it.

Fly a med web blaster vigilant. Go straight for it when you land, web the cruiser, blast it and loot. Worked fine for me since the beginning of the event. Don’t even have all 5 skills.

When SP fails, use your brain (or the forums… My fit has been posted since the beginning of the event…)

Does it work for battleship?

Ah! Well sorry, I thought you meant cruiser.

No idea on the battleship. Haven’t tried yet. It doesn’t have a high for a scanner so that would not be the greatest fit either way. And you might get in trouble while rushing the battleship with the mwd on. I’ll play around with the signature tomorrow. From what I read, it needs pretty insane dps to break though. Beyond what most single ships can deliver.

Few more minutes before warpout would be cool indeed.

Only 50? Some people were doing two to three times that (well I was).

Oh hai Sharcy,

I was going to try with my Rattlesnake at some point but not any more. Sharcy knows snakes people. If he says is problematic it probably is.

Ghe, thanks. Has anyone tried a Rapier or a Huginn on the cruiser, given their massive web bonus?

A hint for those people who find the drifter (cruiser or battle ship) warping out on them.

How do you stop a player warping in PvP?

I do the battleship with a machariel (MWD, 2 overdrives, tech2 heavy grappler) and an alt in a VNI just to provide extra dps. , takes about 3 minutes or so now. I don’t kill anything else in the battleship site.

this, definitely.

Did the escalation in vindi+bhaal.
Too slow. The BS orbit at ± 60 km, 1700m/s, while the cruisers neut you 40 GJ after cap battery.

You can’t fleet warp (or I didnt find how), had to made first toon go then warp to fleet member on second. So I made first toon (t1) align top, while second toon was align bottom in bhaal , to catch one BS. T2 caught BS when T1 was ~130 km from them, so I tried to warp to him after getting to 150 … “you cannot warp there, as a naturel phe…” ■■■■ you CCP !

THEN my vindi approaches the now double-webbed BS. and then the site despawns …
good thing my bhaal has a point, though the tank does not hold vs full room DPS+neutra, so I wait for my vindi with mwd off (meaning the BS gets slowly away… remember 24km out and my point fails)

finally after two eternities and a half, my vindi reaches the BS, after killing the cr that was neuting him.

and now the grind starts …
I used 1 - 1.5 clip of mega neutron blaster (between 80 and 120 shots : between 320 and 480 s : betwen 5:20 and 8 minutes) with a 1300 DPS vindi + 740dps bhaal (including drones) on an almost complete still target at 1000m.
that’s just to kill ONE BS (the other one was long gone)
for one sunesis BP, one apotheosis BP, and one basic accelerator.

Use a Vigilant and catch it at 5k. You can be cap stable with a T2 fit. 1 web 1 point.

No idea why people are overcompensating with battleships and other insanity.

Probably because most fly battleships for PvE.
