All I'm saying is that Ill omens' kdr is three times ours. Its right there in the leaderboards. And I know that its easy to inflate it etc but these guys are the real deal. We need more ringers come Thursday. And I was in that delta force battle.

Can't you like, toss the battle continuously with redline AFK/ing/poo poo and never lose enough clones to lose the district? Or can you lose simply by losing enough MCC's?

I've started verbally assaulting Ill Omens guys about the upcoming fight, and as I'm incapable of being effective on the battlefield I surely will never back up my words with actions. So far I've received 0 likes in the Dust forums, so perhaps I'm incapable of trolling, too. I need to up my game.

tl:dr is that the leader of Eon (the alliance that Ill Omens is in) and a mutual friend don't want us brawling for "reals" (we have no grudges against Eon; we also have a common dislike for another alliance). We might brawl for reals, we both might skip the fight, or we might do some newbie loving around.

You can hijack empty FW matches pretty easily if you coordinate with other groups, which is what some other people want us to do since PC is a wallet killer. Regardless if we brawl with Eon, people will come after us anyway. You don't have to worry about us not wanting to fight, we're not cowards like the previous CEO

They decreased some vehicle upgrade costs. I've got just as many SP as before sunk into vehicle upgrades, but my total SP earned was changed, they added the now overflow to my disposable sum of SP. I guess that method works? They decreased the SP costs going into HAVs and special LAVs, which is very welcome, at least the repair-aura LAV part of it.

In other news, after the respec, I'm considering moving from minmatar logi to gallente logi. PG/CPU seems more useful more of the time than hacking speed and armor tanking seems alright with 5HP/s passive repair without any modules. I know Moronic runs gallente logi. Anyone have any thoughts about the relative merits of the two?

So CCP have just posted how to get your free respec, if you want it in their latest dev blogCCP posted:Mercs of New Eden! Changes are coming to the DUST 514® skill system as we work to incorporate player requests and feedback. To make sure you can adapt to the altered systems, we’ll be offering the chance to request an optional, one-time skill respec via our support system.

I run Gallente logi, too and it's the way to go if you want to make the most of your PG/CPU. The bonus reduction in equipment is huge considering how equipment is the whole draw to running logi in the first place. The class will get even better with the introduction of more armor modules. Just be aware that you will feel like heavy-level slow so don't expect to get places quickly. Also, you're armor tanked meaning stay away from mass drivers mostly and you should be fine on the battlefield; you can almost shrug off scrambler rifles. That said, I do think the hacking speed for the Minmatar is very valuable. Xaerael was talking about how he was running complex codebreakers last build and had probably a 2 second hack which would get even better with the Minmatar racial bonus. But if you're focusing on supporting the team directly I'd say you'd be better off with one of the other racial suits.

I've been heavily considering the skill respec, especially since I was pushing towards an Amarr Logi and am stuck at Amarr suits IV. I've seen a lot of posts on the forums stating that Amarr Logi suits are horrible and are lacking three equipment slots to accommodate use of a sidearm. Opinions? I'm starting to get used to not being a Logi anymore and have actually had rounds that ended in a positive K/DR (mindboggling for me, no doubt). e: went ahead and submitted for a respec nippythefish fucked around with this message at 14:38 on May 22, 2013 |

After you've successfully hacked something inside of the enemy redline, it's very hard to stop.

Reminalt posted:Too bad nobody is allowed to participate in the fight. Okay, Here is the deal. EoN is a friend of our friends. They jumped the gun in attacking us. Our mutual friends were worried that fighting too much in system and weakening defenders clone counts would leave districts vulnerable to invasion by people none of us like. So no one is going to join the battle Thursday, and they're going to take a loss on the clones they committed. We are in talks about them attacking on the next window when we're not worried about clone counts dipping to low so we can have a friendly sparring match. We've also discussed arranging friendly matches with them in the future. I'm sorry our politics got in the way of your William Travis cosplay, but we'll find you a real enemy to fight I swear.

The previous corp battle mechanic is now essentially the merc tab/faction warfare now. The bonus to this change is that it doesn't require a director to start it anymore. If your able to coordinate 15 other goons / or 31 if you wanted to scrimmage one another you can qsync into the same match.

Only time I have seen them, they are virtually indestructible bricks that zoom around and run people over. They can take a massive beating and then zip off to repair. They are pretty great. As for whether they can actually rep others? Not a clue.
