[QUOTE=abigserve;15975455]Do I understand containers right in that usually you take a big hauler ship with high cargo capacity, put the containers in it, send it out to anchor the containers near ore, dock it, take your mining ship, fill the containers with ore then go back with the cargo ship and take all the ore back to your station?[/QUOTE]
That's what I do. It's hella useful if you don't have an alt/mine solo. Just scoop up the cans when there's no asteroids around them.
Happened to me twice. Fucking macro miners. :argh:
I think I'm gonna start mining in an Industrial. I saw a guy mining with an Iteron 3, and thought it was rather smart if you're like me and don't want to fucking alt-tab every minute into EVE to drag and drop the ore in your cargo bay into a can.
Can't wait till I get a Retriever. Then maybe when I mine I can actually get some worthy income out of a few cycles.
Also, have any of you seen [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=As8cmHb-aKU]Clear Skies?[/url]
It's fucking epic. :v:
I have on request of all of you, Ive already asked haloguy before,
But since I dont have the game, I intend to get the trial soon, I would find it very kind of you to hunt down a few small mining ships, sap their energy, and make them play a quiz show for their lives.
If they get an answer wrong shoot them, if they get it correct shoot the the other ships, last one alive gets to leave freely (:
Just started level 4s yesterday, started out my day with about 5 mill, ended it with 85 :)
[QUOTE=dryer-lint;15973498]No, I need the isk to buy stealth bombers so I can kill goons in T1 frigates, which is about 80% of them.[/QUOTE]
I have plans on buying myself a Stealth Bomber, any good PvP tips on how to be a good stealth bomber pilot?
Ah, I love this game so much more than World of Warcraft. I mean, WoW seems like a grind, this seems like.. well, flying a motherfucking spaceship.
This game IS like a grind when you are in high sec.
[QUOTE=luishi5000;15970827]Anyway, what do I do now? Just go from station to station looking for missions?[/QUOTE]
No. You get the missions from the same guy each time. Otherwise you don't build up loyalty points or discounts or anything. Also probably the reason you weren't doing much damage to that guy is some rats have ridiculous resists. Find out what faction he is, then find out what their damage-type weaknesses are for future reference.
[QUOTE=PajamaSam;15970708]Personally, Goons and Pandemic Legion are my favorite alliances in the game. What are the bad things you've heard about them? Don't say disbanding BoB, spying, or something like that because it's a part of the game.[/QUOTE]
BoB were helped by mods.
Goons send noobs out to suicide gank in hisec.
[QUOTE=abigserve;15975455]Containers[/QUOTE]
Well maybe in a frigate..using secure cans you don't get as much space. What I (and many, if not most other people) do is just jettison it and use the jet-can in the same way. Drag the stuff into the can as soon as it appears in your cargo, then bring your indy back and scoop it all up. You gotta be quick though cos can-flippers are rife.
What kind of fuck-all for brains picks a 'favorite' alliance? Goons have pretty much demonstrated a recruitment strategy that's one step short of conscription and an appreciation for their corp members akin to the appreciation a WWI field marshal felt for their troops.
[QUOTE=Steff;15977941]This game IS like a grind when you are in high sec.[/QUOTE]
Ding ding. You got it. I think that's what really gets people who live in 0.0 or alliances going about 'carebears'. Calling people carebears just because they avoid pvp always seemed unfair. Calling people stupid for paying money every month to punish themselves doesn't.
I love my Caracal + 5 Heavy Missile Launchers loaded with Widowmakers.
Shot 24 pirates to hell with ease.

Goons once got 2 dreadnaughts (6 billion worth) by doing this.

What's the difference? They are EoM Fiends and Incubus. NPCs.

Pirates = Players

I have Caracal also and i killed 47 Frigs and 3 Cruisers in a mission, all at once.

No, It's Goon politic.

K, i got a ingame mail similar to that, some guy told i got into a big corp (cant remember wich)
and told me to give all my stuff so he can transport it to corp HQ.
Obviously i never asked to join nor did corp leader know anything about that.
Also the guy got booted from the corp for that, he now tries to kill me all the time when sees me, once he got killed by concorde and got even more anrgyer.
[QUOTE=TheForeigner;15981103]Is that a scam?[/QUOTE]
Yes
Alright, so I got the stuff. Well, most of it. And I found it would not fit in my ship. The CPU power it would need is not great enough, it only misses it by a little (after I upgrade my electronics skill). So, what can I do about this?

HAM's are pvp missiles, don't use them
[editline]01:55PM[/editline]
And use the kinetic missiles you get bonus's
[editline]01:55PM[/editline]
and use drones
[editline]01:56PM[/editline]
And name your ship
[QUOTE=Wingedwizard;15981904]HAM's are pvp missiles, don't use them[/QUOTE]
He isn't?
[editline]07:15PM[/editline]
Wait he is on the left but not in EFT.
[editline]07:16PM[/editline]
Also load your skills into EFT so you can check it fits before you buy it.
[editline]07:17PM[/editline]
Also if you look up the rat damage type you can switch the invul fields for specific hardeners.
My corp owns a 0.4 solar system :smug:
[QUOTE=Denzo;15982693]My corp owns a 0.4 solar system :smug:[/QUOTE]
Which one? :smug:
Luishi, don't use Invul Fields. They're horrible IMO. You're better off fitting rat specific hardeners.
Or, do what I did. Get Energy Grid Upgrades to Level 4 or Level 5. And then get Gunnery to Level 5. It helps, A LOT.
Then fit some T2 Cap Relays. If it's still not cap stable/overload on CPU/powergrid, work on shield related skills.
And also, get rid of those HAMs, and fit Scourge Heavy Missiles. The Caracal has a damage bonus for them.
[QUOTE=Kalinium;15983072]Which one? :smug:[/QUOTE]
It's called Toon, which is an hilarious name if you ask me :smug:
[QUOTE=Denzo;15983124]It's called Toon, which is an hilarious name if you ask me :smug:[/QUOTE]
Your corp is going to lose Toon Soon :smug:
[QUOTE=Denzo;15983124]It's called Toon, which is an hilarious name if you ask me :smug:[/QUOTE]
What's your corp called, and how can you own 0.4 :smug:
Woot, mining right now. Three Hulks, one Orca, and an Osprey.
Yeah, I'm in the Osprey. T.T
But the fact it brings in [B]more[/B] ore than my Ferox with 7 T2 Mining Lasers has taught me a lesson.
[B]If I want to go mining, buy a ship with mining bonuses.[/B]
[QUOTE=haloguy234;15983108]And then get Gunnery to Level 5. It helps, A LOT.[/QUOTE]
Not on a missile ship it doesn't.
