So usually I drop myself in a belt somewhere and use my alt's Orca to ferry things back and forth as I need. I was previously in a contracting corp that just sold parts and ores to other corps. I made a shitload of cash in that corp. So it's totally overkill for me to be mining solo with a hulk/orca...but I'm the only one really doing any mining for our POS ventures...so hopefully we expand soon and all my fleet bonuses and everything get put to use... I've gotten sniped by Angels of...Action? I think? I can't remember the corp name for the life of me all of a sudden. That and some random Legion guy hit me last night. Grrr. | ||

Hey yea I shouldn't even bother getting Hyey into a carrier now, it's hardly needed at this point if the whole NPC 0.0 stays in effect. That being said what on earth do I do with drone interfacing 5 now? Well, you could always pvp in a drone boat, last I heard the myrm is pretty good. Ishtar if you're a wealthy man(which I'm guessing you are considering you're training for a carrier). I've been pvping on sisi(testserver) these days and it's AMAZING. FD-MLJ has beacons for ffa's and consensual duels setup. Everything costs 100isk but the real bonus is actually getting into a ship and trying out it's capabilites first hand not just theorycrafting. Eve isn't really a micro intensive game, skill comes from decision making and I think the best idea for getting that feeling is flying ships. Question like, when do I heat which mods, do I orbit or aproach or keep at range, which ships can I take on and what not. I've flown Vaga: pretty amazing 0.0 ship tbh, just because of the speed and things that come with it. Cane: words cannot descripe how good this ship actually is. I mean seriously - looks good on paper but is in fact AWESOME once you fly it. LOKI: this ship doesn't have any good fits tbh, it's not as fast as a vaga, not as dps heavy as a cane. Only thing I've found out is that you can fit it like a drake++ as in 450 dps and 120k ehp shield tank. Same thing can be done for armor tank but that's about it. I guess it's a good utility ship for ganglinks, the web range and possibly probing. | ||

I could self fund two MoM's if I wanted and that's only in pure isk and not counting the absurd amount of expensive modules I have in my possession. Playing since 03/04 has its advantages. | ||

Even outside of POS warfare, carriers are handy in WHs escalations, transporting high value goods, Docking games in low/npc space (it takes a blob to kill a carrier that deaggress to dock) hotdrops and the most uber plex boat there is. (if you can get into the gate and someone don't pvp you) ....All that in a insurable package that makes it cost as much as a well fit faction battleship if you lose it. I'd think carriers are a nice addition to any low or nullsec corp that ever does anything, really. From pve to hauling to POS to gangs to blobs, it can find a role to fit in. | ||

Revo would be so proud to hear that we're going back to roaming 23/7 with pretty much everyone KoS is the way Eve should be played. Edit: Atlas is doing GC the favor of resetting us so Insmother = killlzone *fist pump*. REVO WRU yay! Roaming in lowsec was so awesome. | ||

I mean really, there is only so much things you can do with subcaps, while jump drives and caps opens up completely different set of options.

Just because I've played so long doesn't mean I know everything. I have one cap capable character that's flown a supercarrier before... That being said I generally flew carriers in a remote rep format. Sure I know there are other uses but they aren't the easiest of ships to use without logisitical support. Just having a carebear boat has no appeal to me...so unless I use it in a pvp capacity I'd ratjer kep Hyey a subcap pilot. There is one area in the game I have no experience with. Gallente ships. I have flown a Nyx and that is seriously it. I've never been a fan of Gallente ships so I've only ever really used anything drone like in a carrier fighter capacity. That means I really have no clue how to fly a subcap drone boat unless we talk about capital ships. | ||
