Title: Group Ratting evening (Tues or Wed)
Post by: Mangala on May 04, 2009, 07:28:26 AM: Anyone interested in group ratting Z3 and surrounding systems - we'd need to be fit for a little emergency pvp should it happen to us (web/scram or some ewar) plus need a salvage or loot boat with us (that can be ready to run and hide if necessary).

I think it would be fun, and we can maybe camp a gate or two and try a little fishing during the evening?

Either day os ok for me, from around 5ish server time.

tuesday best for me, wednesday i cant be on before 7 ET

-> I have a fast salvage ship, but only 400 m3 hold. IMHO the best combo would be fast salvager and an industrial. These wouldnt have to be 'online' all the time though. So we could rat for an hour or so and then whip these ships out for a round of salvage (while others continue ratting), then continue the ratting, rinse & repeat.
Maybe 3rd ship to hold aggro for any rats that come around...

Post by: Warcold on May 04, 2009, 05:41:12 PM: well, blame mang for clotting the line with 32528 ships ::)
transition of many ppl took some time i guess and Rub being out of the running atm does not help

Post by: Mangala on May 05, 2009, 05:45:56 PM: Eagle died :(

Helping an Sons guy in a expedition, i took aggro got scrammed (No icon to say I was) and then died - had 7 or 8 bs on me plus frigs, towers and the like :(
Title: Re: Group Ratting evening (Tues or Wed)
Post by: Mangala on May 05, 2009, 06:19:14 PM: Continuing this tomorrow guys - as per my recent corp mail.

Ive taken temporary custody of another Eagle (Lots of my ships still in reds care for transport down), and once its refit it will be ready for a few hours of rattage.
Title: Re: Group Ratting evening (Tues or Wed)
Post by: peo on May 06, 2009, 04:49:58 AM: Seems that the expedition thing needs a rather large fleet with at least one tanking bs which can survive the initial onslaught.
Will refit the cane (last modules again :( ) and hopefully join.

Title: Re: Group Ratting evening (Tues or Wed)
Post by: Warcold on May 06, 2009, 12:37:27 PM: what im puzzled about though: general consensus is to shoot Therm and Kinetic at these guys, but the percentages given are highest ???
so is there something odd about these numbers that makes high resist percentages give low resists?
or is everyone wrong and shoot we lob explosive dam at these guys??

[edit]tested to make sure: explo sucks against these guys[/edit]
