got podded in a t1 fit ruppy by a legion in eifer, was going from endrulf to emol. jumped into eifer, saw legion on grid, calmly tried to warp away to emol outgate, but for some reason i didn't warp. i don't think it was a point because that would've been stupidly quick but maybe it was. anyways i died real quick, tried spamming warp as i hit structure but once again (lag I'm guessing) got the best of me and (i shit you not) within 3 seconds of my ship blowing up, before my pod graphics were even loaded i was waking up in a station.

i guess i should've checked before hand but it was late and whatever. i was going to rfap to dock for the night and i died 1j away. fml.

I very much liked the positioning in that fight. Our fleet was like 50km away from me, directly between me and the enemy fleet, which was about 100km most of the time. So i was out of range of the jamming rook, out of range of any tackle and could rep whoever i wanted, even though it wasnt enough when they all focused nou. Only like 10 ecmdrones were permantly attacking me, but failing to jam. I wish pangell had t2 drones and i wish i have had drone shortcuts so i could actually kill them anyway.

i dunno, this might be a novel idea for you but MAKE some drone shortcuts? takes like 10 seconds even in the heat of the battle to assign the Drones Engage Target shortcut

The macro key to turn on your USB coffee maker, perhaps?

Just to clear it up, the BB never warped out as far as I know, the person who almost died on the sun was me (litharis) in the rupture. I panic warped to the align point at 0 i.e. the sun, Due to hitting 50% armor, which was pretty dumb on my part, but the guy who jumped me had a long point so I overheated my mwd and got out.

Drone shortcuts are pretty neato. But a USB coffee maker is even better.

Kind of makes me think I missed most of the game, when I played EvE. And that is probably pretty much true

. I find myself reading this thread a lot these days, so maybe I'll give it another shot, after my exams are over.

At least I didn't get blown up by WTs =P
Besides, nobody gets to start out with 180k skill points, and a 1bn dollar ship.

But what do you do with all those items you looted tofu? It's a common query, for example.

[20:49:05] Vale Strum so what should the lowest % under average regional price should I still sell an item?
[20:49:28] Wrathful Penguins exactly 12
[20:49:30] Wrathful Penguins no more, no less
[20:49:35] Vale Strum k

I take them to Rens and then sell the valuable ones and reprocess the rest so long as the minerals I get are worth more than the item's highest buy order
