  1. Lost badges D:

    It's the same Teamspeak server from five years ago, therefore you are in the system. However, nearly all the badges mean different stuff now, so you'll probably have to re-earn 'em Going to show up at new spawn, Optivus?
  2. IT's The Great Giggity, Talidar!

    uhhh... time? date?
  3. back...maybe

    One or two, yeah. And yes, things have chaaaaanged.
  4. Drug Use Inquiry

    Synth only on the drop because standard has a side effect of -20% shield capacity, which is kind of an issue In a shield fleet. IIRC the only drug we allow the standard grade is mindflood on logi, because we don't care if the tracking on your Scimitar gets messed up.
  5. Trade Hubs and HQ Incursion Systems

    MDD's chart is a good guide for this. There are some places where it's easier to cross the nominal border than to get there from the "main" part of the space... use your Gallente ships in Girani-Fa, pretend Todeko is Ammatar, stuff like that.. but I ended up with one bowhead and jumpclone pair in each of those areas, purely because that is what worked best.
  6. In Tidacha. Fleet should be pretty much done with any left over sites by then. I'll be talking some about the basics, but this is mostly the advanced logi school I've been working on for the last few months. Logi is a team sport, if you want to get good you've got to think about team things. We'll also be doing a few exercises. The whole thing takes just about an hour, and then people ask me questions for a while. The BEST thing for this, is to bring an actual logi ship. A regular cruiser with an afterburner and a couple of reps fit is nearly as good. Or you can just listen on comms. I hope enough logi show up that we can do the horrible thing with the Scimitar Topics I've got written down are threads: delay, teamwork the three-and-a-half minute speech, or, this really is what there is Steady state Verbal Commands and Timing Landing, and the landing checklist The Steak Thing Switches, and the switch checklist The sawtooth function, or, why we decycle That fourth link Cap broadcasts Outunis, and neuts in general "Elite" fits Overheating Finding the Sandbag Exercises - Orbit distances - Burning your reps - What does a rep look like?, battleship edition - What does a rep look like?, fun edition
  7. Ricarde's Modified Guide to Abyssal Damage Modules

    THANK you. This, right here, is the thing 90% of our pilots need to hear. Once you feel like dropping ten or twenty billion on a set of mag stabs, go ahead and ignore this; until then, listen to Ricarde.
  8. Another new pilot with a bunch of questions

    I recommend looking up the character "Dragon Hemah"... his bio has most of the common incursion overviews embedded in it. Try a couple, see what you like. Personally I use a version of the "Canyon Red/Gold" with additional tabs for FC stuff.
  9. FUN FLEET - TambiƩn se permiten dragones

    Remember to fit some rapid lights to your Claymore, Talidar.
  10. Optimal Scimi 5 Ideas

    TBH the fourth link isn't useful EITHER, the way we train Scimi pilots nowadays. If we still had 'em drop extras onto HHH/VVV, a range links adds 100-200ish dps on those guys, but a fourth on DDD has no real effect. This is why I occasionally mention the DDA+Ogre Scimi; it is the most worthwhile thing to do with that fourth low.
  11. Newb questions about incursions

    We are *very* unlikely to run more than one fleet, these days, not enough people x-ing up for it. Which is actually a good thing, because we had four-hour wait times for a while!
  12. In Tidacha, our current dockup. There won't be a new spawn up yet, Tidacha is pretty central for incursions so it's a good place to wait between spawns anyway. This is essentially the same advanced logi school I did a couple of weeks ago, a bit more developed. A lot of this turns out to be about *delay*; we've got enough reps on field, why does it take as long as it does to get them on people? How do we get that to happen faster? Also, I've got things set up for the exercises I couldn't do last time; they should be at least a little bit of fun. You'll see what your reps actually *do*. Topics I've got written down are threads: delay, teamwork Steady state Verbal Commands and Timing Landing, and the landing checklist The Steak Thing Switches, and the switch checklist The sawtooth function, or, why we decycle That fourth link Cap broadcasts Outunis, and neuts in general "Elite" fits Overheating Finding the Sandbag Exercises - Orbit distances - Burning your reps - What does a rep look like?, battleship edition - What does a rep look like?, fun edition You can show up without a logi ship; if you can find an afterburner cruiser with at least one large rep that would be a good step, but it's mostly just talkin'.
  13. The usual "Logi School" for WTM is basically a longer version of the newbro speech logi get, with some obsolete detail about the cap chain for basilisks. I've said what I have to say about that in (1). I'd been flying the basilisk for three or four years when I wrote that, which may tell you something about me and logistics ships. This is going to be something different. I've talked about most of this stuff in fleet at one time or another, but never gathered it up into one place before. The main topics in my notes are threads: time, cap, teamwork, the opposite of teamwork Steady state Verbal Commands and Timing The Steak Thing Switches The sawtooth function, or, why we decycle That fourth link Cap broadcasts Outunis, and neuts in general "Elite" fits Overheating Finding the Sandbag Exercises - Orbit distances - Burning your reps - What does a rep look like?, battleship edition - What does a rep look like?, fun edition This will start at 1630 EVE time on October 31, just about twelve hours after the spawn probably dies. It'll take about seventy minutes including the exercises. In the unlikely event that a spawn shows up during the thing, we can do the in-ship bits and then I'll keep babbling while everybody packs up and moves. If you don't have a logistics ship, you can do the in-ship stuff with any cruiser fitted with a couple of shield reps and an afterburner; Scythe or Osprey are pretty obvious candidates, and Dodixie's right over there. 1)
  14. Marauder Initiative

    I built Vargurs for a year or two. If what you need is characters with production skills, I think the main ones aren't doing much these days-- been busy these past few years, and then the recent changes made all the money go to whoever owns the reactor for the carbon fiber things so I stopped doing freighters. You could in-game mail me or something and we could talk about details.
  15. Elite Basi Fits

    That is a no. Since we do not check implants, we cannot allow line pilots to fly any fit that would require implants.
