Nerf Ganking Megathread

Those fessies have crazy tracking, I use beams on them too, they work very well even against small targets at close range. The fessie and the jack :sparkling_heart: I’d say those are the first significant goals any omega rookie should set for pewpewing

Also, ganking doesn’t need a nerf, because it’s part of the game and the experience.

Doubt.

You were hitting it pretty hard earlier being passive aggressive and trying to get me upset.

The whole creativity thing and now competent players don’t use zkill.

Bro, you’ve been having a tantrum all day.

Well snipe fits trade damage for range, hence why you need a fleet of them.

Feroxes/rokhs are good in fleets for long range defense. You can actually fit Rokhs and hit pretty far out with blasters and null too.

Oh I know. I do like the proph. I can fly almost any empire ship up to BS at least. Just amarr has never tickled my fancy. Was using those free BPCs to try stuff out LOL.

Cool bruv :smiley: But if you don’t gotta say you aren’t angry…

I use jackdaws for anoms, pretty good ship.

I know and it is delicious.

I wonder if he knows what’s actually happening here ROFL.

Also ganking doesn’t need a nerf :smiley:

I spend a lot of time just sneaking around Eve in a shuttle. All over the place. Just gathering info. Its amazing how every system has a different signature. Systems even become predictable after a while. I know pretty much exactly what will likely happen in Litiura, or in Isanamo, etc, etc. I know Eba is completely empty 99% of the time ( surprising for a 0.9 system ). I know the safest route back from Amarr to Oipo is to go via Sarum Prime first. Hundreds of little nuggets of info that you only get by actually going to places. Its also how one avoids gankers.

did you ever get ganked, doing the sneaking ?

Not once. Macgybo says shuttles are not that hard to gank, and indeed I have seen a few shuttle ganks on killboard ( sorry to mention something Lucas says is irrelevant ), but I’ve been literally all over Eve ( I even plan to visit the famous Eve Gate ) without even being targeted let alone ganked. I guess most gankers just dont see a shuttle as a worthwhile kill.

Then why am I so good solo?

:rofl: Keep thinking that.

Yes. That is why I advocate always going to the actual systems. When I came back, I jumped in a frig and just went wandering. Getting the lay of the land.

This is probably the truest statement he has ever made ROFL.

Its too much of a crap shoot. Unless you actually run past a scanner but those are more for bigger targets.

The zKillboard doesn’t matter, it never did. It’s just a sidenote.

Indeed. Without even logging in I could tell you there’s probably about 24 people in Vittenyn right now. Other systems such as Litiura vary a lot. There’s probably some Orca being bumped in Torinnos ( a lot of that lately )…yada yada. Killboard is great for intel, but you can’t beat actually regularly going to places and getting the ‘feel’ of them…and it is different for every system.

The last thing the game tells the new player is about a killboard. Don’t know why your

is about.

On a sidenote, you and jj’s RP’ing in the forums is more interesting then RP’ing game!

Killboard is irrelevant…which is why it gets quoted here so often :slight_smile:

False advertising.

The killboard is “not important” because it “misses” the data to make certain claims here look more credible. :rofl:

You can get depends at your local store. Just go to the water closet before you make the trip if you have that much bladder problems.
