He has no idea what he is talking about.
A Ferrari is 100x as expensive as a regular car. That does not mean it is 100x safer.
Saying that a Golem is expensive, ergo it should be difficult to gank is a similar argument.
Marauders are kinda sold on their tanking abilities though.
tanking pve, not pvp.
Some might disagree.
It was over in about 3 seconds.
A Raven does them just fine, as does a Gila. You do not need a 2b+ ship to do this extremely easy content and any marauder in high-sec is an obvious gank target and knowing this you should have chosen a ship more suited to the task. There is no ābalance issueā with 30m of cats killing a marauder, you boated into system, warped into site and set up a giant neon sign saying āgank meāā¦Iām not sure what you thought would happenā¦
Your spiel about ārolling the diceā just says to me you have a lot more isk than you do an idea of how to play this game or 30m of cats popping your ostentatious krab ship would be the obvious outcome and not a ābalance issueā.
Gonna share that fit for a Raven then?
You only need to tank 600dps max, it isnāt rocket scienceā¦

Danke.
Oh, and there seems to be politics involved too. As well as 0.8ās being a touchā¦ lively. Interesting day
As Iāve said the salt is in how easy it was. That was quite the shockah. Over in a couple of seconds if that. In a 0.8,
Will give the Raven a whirl.
You can die in a 1.0 in the most expensive marauder you can imagine, also in seconds. This is why people say high-sec is more dangerous than other areas of space, there is nothing you can do to fight back until you are basically already dead and this should be the first thing you think about when building a ship to run high-sec activities, I could run these in a bling fit rattle, but why would I when all of the targets are cruiser and below and a gila is 1/5 or more of the price? Any gain in dps is lost warping between sites, I just canāt fathom why people are doing these in battleships, the raven fit is just an example to show it can be done cheap, but for the love of bob just use a Gila.
For me? Salvaging the site afterwards with Tractors & BLAH. Proper utility slot stuff.
But yes, very disappointing.
Iāll have to skill into a Gila.
I tow 2 low sp alts around in passive shield gnosisā 1 med shield RR, command burst and salvagers in the highs, just assist the drones to the Gila and the rats will shoot him most of the time and the RR will top you off if they get shirty on a gnosis. If you are doing this with 1 account I suspect the salvage isnāt worth the time.
It depends. As Iāve mentioned Iāve run these in a Loki. Not saying the loki is best. I was just exploring around in it when i decided to try them out, so itās what I was flying.
AC fit with 2 salvagers in the utility highs. Iād warp in, drop MTU, orbit MTU.
I would both shoot rats and salvage wrecks as the MTU brought them in range.
Overall i averaged 8.5 minutes per site from landing to warping out. Typically I finished salvaging around the time the next emergent spawned or slightly before.
True, but I canāt think of another ship with 2 or more utility highs that can run the site and I donāt consider overkill, there probably is one, I just donāt care enough to look tbh since I already have a setup (but if like you I just happened to have a Loki I probably would just use that) a Loki can be fairly cheap sure but if I was in a bad mood Iād gank you just to make you lose SP so thereās thatā¦and as far as pve goes itās basically a Gila anyway. shrugs
Well yea the Gila is boss for PVE.
You could try
It was about 60m an hour. Butā¦ Dice-rolls, salvage, & a fun ship. In a 0.8. Content.
In my bhaalgorn it was 100M/h, people in a vindi do 150M/h.
salvage is worthless.
What missiles would you recommend ?
Sounds like they need to move these anomalies to Null. Or something like them.
