Love it but I honestly don't think that the B2 -> B2 should be possible perhaps a 2 B1 -> a B2 like in yours Hokk should reach maybe all 3 kent, Nova and Bale make the B1 be the stepping stones to get to B2 not that I can just run a circuit of B2.

This would work if there were a lot of TP's from A2 to B1 or B1 to B2. Where it wouldn't work is if there were only 2 or 3 TP's.
Meaning you could put a squad on all of B1 TP's and by extension protect B2. Or Squads on B1 side of B2 TP's to prevent access to the Island.

True but as is 5 TPs on a B1 and only 4 on a B2. B2 can be locked down fairly easy, even more most of the islands have an internal very close to the extrnal having a combat alt on the internal is a good deterant to anyone looking to come roam you after they pushed off the scouted external they meet resistance very fast.

A in-terminal-radar would be already a nice addition and possible SAP point upgrade big_smile

This is all that is needed give it a lightbot detection and have it running beside a landmark overlay in the background of the outpost....

Only problem i see is that I think the outposts are on a different server than the islands.

+1 as turning on your detector on Dom Hokk or Hoop in the NPC congested areas will give you a client side 1 sec lag spike as your landmark and radar must populate 30-40+ Npcs.

If you are not convinced just ask yourself how would you go about countering a shield tanked, neutralising tyranos.  If the answer is:
A) a massive blob (it would be interesting to work out exactly how big)
B) a dedicated, shield tanked vagabond
or
C) a shield tanked, neutralising tyranos

then you know its not well balanced.

if the answer is:
D) a cool new fit/combo

please share it with us...

The counter to all specialized bots is another specialized bot an great ictus pilot is brought to his knees by any great zenith pilot, great zenith pilot is counted by a great vaga or even 2 great cam pilots, The tyranos can be countered with a few coordinated skilled pilots, now the question falls back to is that a blob when you bring 5 guys vs 2 sheilded tyrans? (but thats another topic) Is sheild tanking broke on greens? probably is armor tanking broke on all other bots.... Yes but in the opposite extreme you can't even use a RR bot to keep your heavy standing agains 3 mechs.
Oh and a counter was found but its just to lol and unpratical for any other application.

A T4 ERP does give you 3 types or energy from damage convergance not sure how much better a universal would be.
-1 Erps are fine possibly buff them back up a touch or buff back the armor rep tunings that said it would be looked at as knee jerk

I thought this was planned RPGs? Grenade launchers... Most RPGs are LOS so I would put a +1 on this I also like Syrissa Idea on makeing missiles a non-bonus Item

+1 random ore spawn
Make Titan Alpha 1 island only ,swap the Teleporters so that you must travel threw a Beta 1 to get to a beta 2, Make each faction island Alphas only have one of the big 3 Sterm/imment/Liquiz Betas will have all - titan

Numiqol islands get liquiz
Thelodical get imment
Pellistal get sterm
A1 Tp system stays the same - the beta access
A2 TPs get TP from 2 A1 and 2 B1 islands
B1 get a B1 ring TPs and the A2 TP and 2-3 TPs to the adjoining B2
B2 only access from B1

               B2
               B1
               A2
B2 B1 A2 A1s A2 B1 B2

All the bitter EVE people remember stuff like snowball launchers and police frigates.

OH WELL SURE.
That extra 75 Armor amount will surely make all the difference.
Still a fail bonus on a Heavy that needed something else.  Or just remove it all together.

OMG Cry lately? Seriously this is a niche robot its not gonna tank the spawn with you like your lithus can its a freighter.... Have you ever seen what happens to 18 wheelers when they flip a trailer? No, ok well cargo goes every where and the trailer is turned in to a couple of axels and maybe a mudflap. This bot isn't ment to tank crap its a paper thin transport, take it or leave it but stop crying until your sitting in it. Not many people like all the bonuses on all the bots would you rather it have the resists like the other indy bots? In fact truely I don't want to know what bonuses you want it to have. It has what it has! TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT

Working as intended (again the peanut gallery wants to change things they have not touched yet roll ). This bot as the devs said is move slope capable than other haulers but it lacks in other areas. If you bring one to beta better have some guards. To me it looks more like a TP hauler. We lithus just the stuff from beta to the Alpha TP scarab takes the 3 lithus loads and heads for alpha terminal the lithus' head back to beta terminal. Sure it seems like your not making it easier for most people but a corp builder using this to push titan to the beta crews and pull epi back to alpha makes perfect sence to me.

Wife will be at work..... wonder where I will be

Dev's WTF with Zenith?
Demobilization throu out the mountains? It's so kind of joke?

Pls, fix this damn situaton,  thx


To answer your question it takes 2-3 accounts to "demob threw moutain"

A: Zenith with 2 demobs and all range extenders
B: RSA(remote sensor amp)
C: Ewar nexus preferably a T4 with atleast lvl 6

Now bot B and C can be the same but it will take atleast 2 bots to Demob you threw a moutain.

Working as intended as this is a min/max trade.

Just a guess 62nd is red? To bad I really wanted to dock up and repair those Ecms I battle looted.

mission ammo? where has it gone?

What missions now give small ammo, Please tell me mission name/outpost/Corp giving mission and ammo reward. I have a feeling that mission ammo is not easily accessable any more.

What I would love to see is the internal corp markets moving data. "with prices excluded since they will vary widely from corp to corp.

Example, T2 Ldemob. It has no moving on open market and the prices vary widely, so its impossible to tell if there is demand for this item. If i want to make and sell them on open market i have no idea how long or at what price I should sell them for.

I see where you are going and I agree with both suggestions in OP and with alexs idea of forced internal/external priceing.

However your Example could be Jaded as L-demobs were an expansion item (doesn't drop from mobs) that came out shortly after a few corps "completed" tech (most PVP corps are communist no internal data from them)... Also D-mobs are a funny choice for market study as PVE AFAIK won't use one (possibly if trying them) and PVP will fit the best they can on an item such as a D-mob (Unless im in suicide mode I know i fit t3/t4 d-mobs). That being said recheck your data with items that get wide use or are common in drops T4 LWF, t2-t4 Light weapons, T1-T4 Accu rechargers, T1-t4 Accu expanders and Industiral tunings. The market isn't dead people still use it. But most PVP active corps have taken on Communistic ways where ore gets given to builders and products get handed out, PVE corps may use the market more freely but they don't "need to replace" buy as often.

Edited: grammer police I'm sure I misspelled some more

While were on the topic of blue.....

Will test this when i get home but a fully fitted arb and bapho with identical fits go the same speed? I'm fairy certain this is true. If it is true then the arby is due a 1-2 kph buff?

Sorry kanogi not to de-rail your thread.... I like the idea of demob resistance but thats a movement/armor bonus vs the other bots dps bonus.

precision firing Bonus, No way Mesmers already oneshot E-wars if all slugs hit let alone one crits.

my Artemis has a total useless bonus - Laser damage, since i cannot benefit from the passive resist bonus while using Lasers... i go out with Firearms. oh, see, firearms got a huge falloff *hint* *hint*

Your suggesting he trade a pan... for a heavy pot?

w/ Firearms fitted your doing the same base damage (kinetic)type have ruffly the hit dispersion are heavier and get no damage bonus.

So now he can have a great fall off, do crap damage, have the same miss ratio and not run away cause hes to heavy. Perfect suggestion... Fire arms for Artimis make sense as its a swap in base damage type and gets a great bonus of crit from bot.

Swap the falloff to optimal range bonus?

Think of it this way as an analogy.

Tiles are like small reservoirs of water with a pipe connecting each adjacent tile and your mining laser is a hose pumping water out, as you empty the 'reservoir' adjacent tiles will start filling up the that space until there is no more water to fill it up from nearby reservoirs (tiles).


Analogy I heard as a young spark on Nia....

Poor a glass of water on the counter now hold a paper towel and only dip the corner in..... the water will pull in to the papertowel but if your not centered on the pool you might not pull it all in to the towel....

That being said I have seen line pools of Liquiz that pulled from one corner to the other but with 100+% scan you see that one side is a deeper red than the rest of the line.
