He went completely crazy from losing a few pixels in a video game. He needs psychological help and take a break from EVE. Possibly a permanent one. ---

9 Purifiers =360Mil = 9K DPS (64km range) 1 can also mount a couple of EM bombs, to kill the cap of any Active tanking ship. Time to total destruction for a 200kEHP ship… with 1000HP rep… 25 seconds. 350k EHP - 45 secs. Now, a poorly fitted T2 Marauder drop can be 700mil… or 3Bil in my case… If these ships were nerfed like it has been for the Marauder tanks, they should go back doing 300DPS… Now they would need 30 ships to do the same damage, it would cost them 1Bil for each fleet, and 700nil drop would mean they would lose money. IT’s an easy Nerf to think about if you want to equilibrate Eve. Hit the gankers preferred ships DPS if you don’t want to give any Marauders their deserved tank. 1000DPS is insane for a bomber ship worth 30 mil. The choice should be easy. ![Screenshot 2026-08-02 at 04.02.01](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/0/6/8/0688d7f3e41a4542cb6b2f964583d4c11e001aa0.jpeg) ---

They can only do that to large targets (which you made yourself larger with your fit) and are very easy to kill with drones or small ships. > [@Queotzcatl](#): > > Time to total destruction for a 200kEHP ship… with 1000HP rep… > 25 seconds. > 350k EHP - 45 secs. And giving marauders back the T1 battleship bonus would not give you that much extra EHP with your fit, especially since they were targeting your massive EM hole. ---

1 - All bombs, including void bombs, cant be used on highsec, even on lowsec 2- Ure basing ur calculations in Ehp, a parameter that means nothing if the atacker can choose his damage type, 3 - If bombers were nerfed … we would use polarized coercers that with max skills, drugs and implants can do 800-900 Dps … LETS NERF COERCERS TOO!!! … nah m8, better lets put in every marauder a button that gives u 10 sec invulnerability like hacs have .. and a box of donas for concord, that u can jettison, so they can arrive faster. 4- At least u did ur maths well with the cost of a bomber squad, that means anything suitable to drop 600-700m in loot, its a bet most gankers are willing to take. BUT as i told u before, a 1,4b module, justifies itself alone a gank. The pics of the ganked marauders u posted several post up to this one, were all in the potential profit range, so they were selectd as a suitable ganking target I keep thinking the same … skill issue. 07 ---

He could simply use a passive-buffer Rattlesnake or ScorpNavy with a HG Nirvana Clone (protected by a brick-tanked Harpy-Assaultfrig with ADC) and farm in peace all day long. ---

Yeah, but what’s the point in trying covering the EM hole, when the total EHP is still under 200K EHP, with everything OH. Or invest 600Mil in invuln modules to bring it up to 300k EHP? It’s still nothing. There in no scenario where you have a minimum chance of survival, other than fit a ECM BURST and MJD, to try get out of the mess and escape. 70% EM is not a Big hole… I have passive EM modules that brings it up to 92%, but mission wise, it’s useless. And the Total EHP, won’t let you survive the 60s Bastion cycle, unless really lucky, that you see them landing, press stop and it stops in 2 secs, and you can try MJD out or just try warp… Marauders don’t have even built in Warp core stabilization… Anyway, have a good day, Light bringer! ---

Here comes the question, when will factions allow BPC sell of those modules? Their value was 800Mil, even 750. The Breach control? I sold it for 1B and peace. But who’s gonna provide 1 run BPC of these modules? So market can normalize it’s price over time and they are not “juicy juicy” anymore than a normal CN Ballistic control… I made my CN Raven with LP store points and it costed me more then 1B. If I bought it, I would have spent 500Mil. Szygium thinks there too much LP points in game, but look at the physical stores where to convert those LP in “something”… It’s all mainly 1 run BPC now, and you lose iskies in the process. This is where we are at with the faction Bastions: an enormous liability for the Marauder runner. But I posted all other ganks by the same small team of Purifier, and none had Faction Bastions on. They just hit the Jackpot with me. The next CSM ways to try bring the faction modules cost significantly down, should be discussed. It’s still scarcity at its peak, make no mistake!! Have a good day, Molea. ---

You could have had that LSE be an EM hardener (T2) and it would provide more defense. (OR just don’t mission next to Jita!) ---

Jita isn’t the problem… High-sec isn’t the problem… Even Caldari space isn’t the problem. The problem isn’t even a semi-blingy Marauder. **The problem is having 118k EHP in a 0.6 system**. Do you know how many bombers they needed to pull off this gank? **8**. If CONCORD was diverted they could’ve gotten away with **6**. And that’s non-heated, non-drug, non-implant fits, so if they’d really been ambitious they might’ve gotten away with **5**. Even had the 50% shield extender bonus been applicable - the gankers **still** could’ve pulled it off with the bombers they brought. This particular gank ran around (±) 700m ISK. So they needed loot at least double or triple that to make it worthwhile. And an active-tanked target. ---

A lot of small null sec, wh corps, had a small frame to expand a little, having 5 marauder buffed fleet gave them small opportunities never seen before. At each nerf they lost all of those protective piowers. My reasons are personal, and that is my guilt. So we are all a bit guilty here, its human nature.. Lotts of people have lost their capacity or will to ggo against what many accepted as manifest destiny. Sitting Bull miight teach us some ways to live in this chaos. ---

I knew i overkilled it, in fact it blapped when i was finishing alt-tabbing with the last bomber, but the target was so juicy i decided not to risk something to go wrong and lose the kill. There are a lot of factors u dont know, if the pilot is implanted, and the full fit of the target. Does he have extenders? a second multi hardener? maybe specific em hardener?, would one or more of ur bomber get stuck on the gate? will the pilot fight back and oneshot some of ur guys? In these cases, and with a target so blingy, u dont usually risk it, and unleash all your damage. ---

Marauder class battleships should be near impervious to anything under a cruiser. I can see 20 cruisers taking out a Marauder when fit properly to break through the Marauder’s defenses after scanning the Marauder. But even a fleet of 15 ganking Catalysts fit with TII and the pilots all having the best Implants should never be able to gank a Marauder. They might come close, but never.
