What about cloacked ships? Are they now visible on d-scan? How you can protect?

Oh really? Placing ONE bubble on each gate in a constellation is a full day job now, bots can probably manage that, humans - no. That’s removed.

And where are my gravimetric SIGNATURES (hint, stupid ■■■■■, SINGATURES) are?

That’s why you wait to see who de-cloaks after jumping the gate or have someone on the opposite side to see them before they jump. Also, are you kidding me? Why in bobs name would you think I meant warp away from every single gate flash… **HENCE THE SCOUT SITTING ON GRID TO SEE WHO DE-CLOAKS**!!!:parrotsleep::parrotsleep:

Before we had two layers of miner defense. Local and bubbles. After that patch, only local could protect a barge. And we won’t put one, we’d put 7. But now, managing 7 is like a real job in terms of time consumed and danger involved.

No, the nullsec should be dangerous.  
And right now, every aspect of danger has been removed from the ganktard.  
Nullsec should not be safe for ganktards.

You are talking to an obvious idiot who has never done pvp. His whole eve experience is mine and dock up whenever the automated bot warning system ringed ALARM because of a neutral 5 jumps out.

so you wanna tell me it’s a “pita” to find me when you just have to sit in your cloaked bomber and chain-jump the belts? i think not…

Yeah, mayb the prices will adapt so i can replace 3 orcas in a week … or gankers will kill the economy of smaller corps entirely, just because they can.

Its always risk / reward, but they added a TON of risk to null without adapting the rewards because they hope the market will fix this issue - but im concerned that the super-corps will get rich beyond imagination and concentrating that much power to a (relative) small group never leads to a “balanced” outcome.

We will see…

What risk do the cloak campers have? They get to chose only fights with PVE targets with no counter play.

Imagine the fun of that, 6 hours of sitting on grid with no right to miss a single second within a minute past gate flash. We have 4 jumps a minute from passing light blues, meaning it requires 100% attention and matching every gate flash with a decloaker.

You know, you should try before you speak. And if you miss one, you pay 800mil for that Orca he hotdrops. For each one you miss. Deal?

I hear you can fly Orcas in high sec. Why not give that a try if you’re risk adverse?

You neither. Ganking people who can’t fight back due to being in a pve ship nerfed from any fighting capacity is not pvp.

My whole latest pvp experience is booty calls to save dumb rorquals 3 times a week because we don’t have supercap umbrella to deal with every trash kikimora gang.

or you can have someone on the other side of the gate that will tell who exactly jumped in and whether you need to decloak them or not.
