Idiots guide to new probing system please
« on: March 10, 2009, 09:53:55 PM »
Would love a link to one, or one posted here. Im probably going to fit a launcher on a shooty ship rather than something dedicated (a buzzard setup would be great too!), but I';d like to be able to find my way out of a Wspace area that isnt asking Red :D

you need to be uncloaked to launch probes but can cloak once they are all up and further than2.5km away from your ship

Found my first WH on my own.  Got a regular launcher fit on a harpy, took 30mins to narrow it down, but awesome when I did get it :D

as your skills improve you will speed up, at times ,if im lucky, i can launch 4 deep space probes and get a straight 100% with them at max range, so thats 4 seconds to launch the 4 a few seconds to drag and drop on solar map then 7 seconds to scan, easily less than 30 secs start to finish ;) a lot less painless than the previous system.

Aye - got Pinpointing and Triang to III, Astro to IV (V eventually for the Deep Space probes I think), with the 1st 2 going up to IV after a detour to t2 lasers.

Astro V helps a lot.
With a rigged covops and the PPH2 - you can get warpables with 4 DS @ 8AU and 1 DS in the center at 2AU.
