  1. The reason heavy drones were chosen over mediums was because of surviability. Medium drones can die in TCRCs, and drone dps is so lame and insignificant given how poorly drones apply relative to the main guns dps, that we chose to take the dps penalty for more surviability. Adittionally, the rest of our non marauder optimal fits use heavy drones, and so cross training would be less of an issue. Although marauders are such a high skilled ship anyway that high sp pilots probably also have medium drone operation 5 as well, so this is kinda not as big of an issue.

    Thats strange. Im pretty sure that back in the days we managed to win a few contests with Blob and his swarm of snakes warping in, doing damage then warping off before the payout. Or do i remember wrong , @Blobert ?

    PS: But yeah, either way im pretty sure its a bad idea on the long run for various reasons.

    you do not remember wrong, sweetcheeks :x

  3. As outlined in this CCP devblog, with the upcoming structure changes on May 26 unfueled structures will lose their defensive times and will not have asset safety if destroyed. As a result, we will be removing most of our dormant structures in anticipation of the patch. Please take this time to remove all assets from Warp To Structures structures before May 24th. Any ships, modules, etc left in structures at that time will be placed in asset safety and require a fee and wait time to recover. Any pods left in structures at that time will unfortunately be automatically destroyed.

    When the system warrants it, we will endeavor to online a Warp To Structures structure in the current focus. When online and listed in the WTM Incursions' MOTD, this can be treated as a normal player station with all the same associated risks. After the focus is finished, you will have 72 hours from the time the new focus spawns to remove your assets from the structure before it is taken down. As mentioned above, once deanchored after the 72h grace period, the structure will place ships, modules, etc in asset safety and destroy any remaining pods.

    We are happy to provide our citadel service free of charge, however we cannot take responsibility for any assets that are forgotten or lost. Warp to Structures is owned and operated with the full endorsement of WTM Incursions. Please feel free to contact Officers or Leadership with any concerns.

  5. Warp To Me Upgrade Policy

     

    What is the policy?

    WTM Incursions welcomes new pilots to come try out incursions with us, and we have provided several affordable options for entry-level battleships that let you get into fleet without breaking the bank. However, over time we ask that you invest in making yourself and the fleet more effective, which includes getting set up in a ship that is well-suited for incursion running and then upgrading it over time.

     

    Step 1 │ Intermediate or Optimal Hull & Optimal Logi │ 20 in-fleet hours

    Shooty Ships: The Intermediate and Optimal Ships are listed as such on the fitting website. If you aren’t flying one of these hulls yet, then we ask that you upgrade to one with a proper fit (which can be found on our fitting website). Based on average fleet earnings, this should give you more than enough income to fit up a ship as well as helping towards covering your monthly Plex costs. 

    Logi: One of the biggest improvements you can make for logi is to complete the Logistics Cruiser 5 skill. This allows you to bring more utility with the Scimitar and fly the Basilisk. We ask that you complete this training and upgrade to our Optimal Fit for the respective T2 logi. 

    Step 2 │ T2 Guns, MWD, Faction Damage Mods │ 65 in-fleet hours

    Shooty Ships: After upgrading into an intermediate or optimal hull, we ask that you begin training into Tech 2 Guns for your preferred ship type, as well as purchasing a few upgrades, specifically Optimal Microwarpdrives and Faction equivalent Damage Modules. Based on average fleet earnings this should give you enough time to train the skills naturally or earn enough to purchase skill injectors. 

    Step 3 │ Optimal Fits on either an Intermediate or Optimal Hull │ 80 in-fleet hours

    Shooty Ships: Now it is time to finish out that fit. By now, you are expected to be in one of the optimal doctrine fits of either an intermediate or optimal hull. So start planning your upgrades now! If you still haven't fully upgraded, you may be skipped over for boxes from those who have, so don't wait too long to finish upgrading, and keep your assets safe! Travel Safely!

    Step 4 │ Optimal fit on an Optimal Hulls │ 250 in-fleet hours

    Shooty Ships: Still coming back for more? Great! You are finally expected to be upgraded into one of the Optimal Battleships, the Intermediate hulls are designed to be your stepping stone into one of the Optimal Hulls, so choose your path wisely. If you haven't completed this upgrade path, you may be skipped over for other pilots and boxes who are meeting their upgrade policy. 

    If you are already flying an optimal fit, thank you! We recommend that you continue to upgrade your ship with implants, skills and abyssal modules. Feel free to ask questions in WTM Incursions on how to become better!

    Why?

    We want to run incursion fleets the best we can and in order to that requires investment from you! Many veterans have already invested in themselves and in fleet without this policy, however, some pilots have decided that sandbagging is okay. It’s not! For this reason upgrading is a requirement. 

    This all sounds great but I have been busy and haven't upgraded yet, can I still join fleet?

    Yes! You can still x-up with any ship that meets our fitting requirements. However, out of fairness, the FC may skip over you if there is limited space in fleet and others waiting in line who are following the policy. We understand that life can take some crazy and unexpected turns so please speak to a member of Command Core if you feel that you have exceptional circumstances.

     

    Thanks for improving yourself, improving fleet, and for flying with us!

    See you in fleet!

  6. Starting in Milu, structures will be put up in every subsequent focus for people to dock, and repair in. They will also have a cloning facility that will be online until 24 hours after the focus goes down.

  7. Just a little bit of advice for ya Knight: if you want change (which it seems you do), the best way to do this is not to be abrasive to the people who possibly CAN make change. Even if it is not your intent, the way your wrote your post makes it seem this way. 

    You said that you would not apply as an R badge because you could not fly your 4 link scimi. Some of us are saying that if you apply and get accepted, you might be able to fly your 4 link scimi in the future. Becoming an LM is pretty much our version of advanced-super-awesome-and-amazing logi pilot. Especially as Juan said, we can see that there has been some thought gone into this idea so if you joined the Command Core you might be able to bring more people in on your idea.

  8. 4 link scimi: 7.6 shield ehp

    t2 invuln + dc2: 7.55 shield ehp

    pith c invuln: 7.79 shield ehp

    So unless i'm just reading the completely wrong numbers, I did take into account shield vs total ehp. And I even acknowledged that what you said about scimis are correct. However, as Knightandday said, this scimi fit would only be for people who actually know what they're doing. So on time broadcasts as well as possibly manual piloting. If your argument is "well my reps don't rep as much because that scimi doesn't have as high resists" then I would just point you in the direction of the LSE scimi. Despite not allowing it in WTM and some people having very strong opinions on it, that scimi fit does work and can tank a site just fine. The main issue with the 4 link is that if it gets super webbed or capped out and basically stops moving then its probably gonna die, just like most of the other scimis. And again, because this fit would be designed for knowledgeable pilots, they shouldn't be getting initial aggro in a tcrc anyway, all the other spawns they should be too far away to get instantly alpha'd or webbed.  I am not advocating that this be allowed as a standard fit for us (at least not right now), just saying that this guy has some validity to his ideas.

  9. Okay so I just did some fitting things in PYFA. It seems that the main concern with the LSE scimi is that it blooms the sig too much compared to the invuln scimi, and the issue with the 4 link scimi is that its not tanky enough. With genos and a 6 percent 8 slot implant, I made a 3 rep stable 4 link scimi that matches the tank of a scimi that we allow in fleet. It is slightly less tanky than our optimal scimi. Honestly, the only reason I would say that this fit doesn't work in our fleets is becuase staggering reps on this scimi is KEY to its survival. Any other form of repping is going to end up like Imelda said. 

    Also, if you are super confident in your logi skills, I would recommend applying for resident. The application is here. There are some perks to being an LM ya know....
