@everyone

Currently it is possible to avoid being attacked after leaving Abyssal Deadspace
In all areas of space!

Here are the steps for you to reproduce:

  1. Run Abyssal Deadspace and make sure to have one spare Filament with you
  2. After exiting the final room and returning to normal space: DON’T DO ANYTHING
  3. You have a 60s Invulnerability timer as long as you don’t move/activate modules etc.
  4. Open your cargohold, double click the spare Filament
  5. After 30-45 seconds the Abyssal Trace will despawn
  6. Look your wannabe attackers in the Eye, while you wait out the 60s timer
  7. Mouse over the Filament window. “Activate” is greyed out
  8. The second your Invul timer is over, you immediately click “Activate”

One has to be no genius to realize that this will break any attempt to catch people outside these sites. With a Tier1 Filament, they can simply keep on running, until attackers leave in frustration.

I’m publishing this so people will abuse it, unless CCP fixes this before launch.

THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THIS IS BROKEN!

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Edit: bubbles may possibly stop this, so maybe only Lowsec is fked
