Seriously you need to look at your math, or is it just dumb logic.
Having a second Astra doesn’t give any extra time it just means you have 2 structures to evac in 48 hours.
EG; I go to a WH, find 2 astra’s belonging to the same group, I’m going to shoot both at the same time, with the right fleet comp the timers are 30 mins apart.
Who with half a brain would shoot one one day and go back the next day to shoot the other…
NB; If your idea is to anchor a second after the first is RF’d - What would you think the chances of getting it online would be?
RF 1st Astra, logoff in system to wait out the 48 hour timer. Login to check activity, you might catch someone trying to evac, instead you see a second Astra anchoring. Gee, I’ll be real nice and let them get it online. Nah, fuk that I’m going to ping my guys to kill it as it comes online…
The guys who own the first Astra are really screwed now, they just threw away a second Astra and now have only 24 hours to evac the initial RF’d one.
In the Sov changes of yesteryear, when we traded SBUs for Sov Wands, which empire suffered the most “loss”? It was Legion of xXDeathXx. They felt that the new mechanics meant that they would have to defend far too much, and that it would be untenable to maintain such a vast number of systems with the new mechanic.
I mention this, because it illustrates the problems with broad empires, which is important because, while you seem to have been evicted once, we face almost monthly eviction attempts. People evict for holes, for the most part, not for grudges. Which means that people with multiple holes stand to lose the most in these changes, and have to put in far more effort.
You’re complaining about needing to haul in fuel, in a DST, once every three months. You speak of not wanting a second job. Congrats. What the actual ■■■■ are you doing in those three months? If one haul every three months is too much, you need to go play WoW or something. Get a new “not job”.
As it’s stated, you can choose a final date for your last timer in a WH (much like the current Vuln window + 3 days). If someone is an imbecile, they could essentially get a 7 day wait for the second timer. Since it can be scanned and found, only the biggest morons will do that.
What he’s saying is you could set one to die on Monday, and the other to die on Thursday, however neither help the guy who logs in every 3 days since an upwell can be melted in UNDER one day given shitty circumstances.
The reason I don’t think you should have to log in every day is that as said earlier, API lets you get structure notifications via email.
I do think that if you’re going to live in a WH it can be expected that if someone decides to bash your stuff you be able to log in some time during those 48 to 216 hours to extract your assets. If you can’t make 1-2 hours of time over the course of 48-216 hours WH space really just isn’t for you.
What do you need the extra 24 hours for if not making WH space nicer for carebearing?
@Sgt_Ocker Go actually read the blog before posting.
You can set an exact day of the week and time of day for your final timer. Thus, you can set your two astras to exactly opposite each other in the week. This gives 5 days minimum.
If you don’t read the changes, don’t comment on the changes.
If you’re otherwise engaged, the email will just let you know in advance that you’re screwed. It’s not a solution. Not everyone is available to be “on call” for a video game. #adulting
I have feeling those changes favour big alliances too much. For smaller entities attackers will have too much advantages in new system, as defenders dont have coverage in all time zones.
Attackers can simply reinforce everything at 3 am and destroy what have good times for them.
In addition assets are no longer safe in asset safety.
If you dont withdraw most valuable assets back into empire till 8th Feb you may be surprised paying billions in addition to lost citadels…
I dont really understand - CCP wants players to move back to high sec or join one of power blocks?
I think players in small and medium corps are main player base. CCP wants them to withdraw from subscribing game?
If you time it properly, it’s less than 48 hours since it looks to the day +/- 0.5 days. Clearly your bias is pandering to the idea someone will attack a structure without scanning it first. I doubt even you would be so daft.
Again, comprehension. If you’re “low power” your able to destroy an Upwell in LESS THAN A DAY (granted it’ll be a long day).
You hit the shields 13 hours before the vuln window for 20 minutes, it skips armor and goes to the next structure timer +/- 0.5 days with +/- 2 hour variance (I assume it’ll go high in this case), providing a complete destruction in 16 hours or less.
Loney
Nullsec - Drops 75% of assets (25% goes to asset safety)
All my assets would be moved to NPC stations. The only thing kept in any player owned structure would be what I absolutely need.
IE; a few doctrine ships, ammo and spare mods.
Reverse it; 25% drops, 75% to asset safety - Maybe… I don’t want to lose 75% of my stuff because some blob we can’t possibly win against decides to kill a structure I live out of.
Your inability to grasp the issue I’ve pointed out (multiple times) is absolutely mind boggling. Your imagination is running wild. “Carebearing” isn’t a concern and only mentioned by you. I suggest you learn to read prior to attempting a logical conversation.
Your lack of logic is outstanding. You’ve suggested a method to prevent an eviction from a system, but NOTHING to help a casual player from needing to subject themselves playing Eve daily without suffering personal losses. 3 days was short enough, and it’s cut by 1/3.
I’m done. This is obviously a case of “This helps me so I see nothing wrong with it” or possibly “I don’t understand what you’re saying so I’m just going to accuse you of being a carebear.” Either way, you’ve wasted more than enough of my time. Good day.
You have 2 Astra’s in a WH.
One is set to be vulnerable on a Tuesday, the other Friday (3 days apart)
Presuming both have an active module so are in normal power mode… 1st Astra gets RF’d on Tuesday, you have 48 hours to clear it out or lose everything. So you move everything to the second Astra which gets RF’d on the Friday.
You now have 48 hours to move everything somewhere else or lose it all.
All you’ve really done is waste 2 days (and a second Astra). If you can be online to move it to a second structure, you can certainly be online to move it somewhere safe (out of the WH) rather than wasting time moving it somewhere in the same system only to have to move it again…
Reading the blog has little to do with common sense - You’re logic is flawed, no matter which direction you look at it from…
Unfortunately, making asset safety drop items in k-space would not act as a motivator for attackers at all. The truth of the matter is that, right now, Engineering Complexes and reactor-fit Refineries already have partial loot drops, yet no one bothers attacking them. The primary reactor in 1DQ1-A, alone, has tens of trillions of ISK available to be looted, right now.
Also, you don’t have to log in daily. As pointed out several times, you can get emails to tell you when you’re being shot at. If you cannot meet the very low bar of logging in when someone threatens your stuff, you should not be in a WH.
What you’re doing in the WH is irrelevant.
It doesn’t help me, because my corp doesn’t evict for profit. Most of the time just the threat of us coming in gets people to sell us their structures. When we do have to evict we only do hole control if we want to block reinforcements. It’s basically impossible to prevent asset extraction.
Is this reading comprehension thing still a massive projection from you? You have FIVE DAYS. It’s not a method to prevent eviction. It’s a method to get your assets out. You’ve already said very clearly that you have no plans to fight against evictions. 3 day vs 2 day timers has nothing to do with your ability to defend an eviction.
