It's less than 10b to inject into a carrier, to cyno my rattle around. Is there any skills I need, that are not on the carrier requirements, to be cyno'd around?

unless you know exactly where you're jumping to/from forever and know jdc5 doesn't make your life easier, no it is not enough

Thanks all. I'll def get JDC4, as it's only 1 more injector. I'll probably slow train 5, and maybe inject it if it seems like I am missing out on a lot.

You will end up hating yourself with only jdc4. There are already a ton of chokepoints created by phoebe for JDC5 caps, JDC4 caps have it even worse. If you want to use it purely for logistics within one region, you can probably maybe get away with 4, but for any sort of combat use 5 or gtfo.

also cant you still use carriers to facefuck your way through level 5s? might as well inject combat skills into that fucker and make real money

If he's relying on other people for cynos, expect fleets to leave your stupid rear end behind. This is why we say 'JDC V or get out'. You could get away with less before they nerfed jump ranges, but at this point ranges are so miserable that I wouldn't bother trying to get away with less.

In the north you could get by with JDC 4. With a 5 cyno trip at jdc 5 ,it's gonna be painful

It's literally just gonna be a bus for my rattle to get from DED to DED with a cyno from my alt. I am far too terrible at this game to actually fly a carrier. I mean, eventually I'll have skills to use it, but that's a future problem. For now, I would be surprised if it is ever on grid with anything other than a station/cit. Also, I have no idea what lvl 5s are (or 4 or anything for that matter). Side story: Yesterday a Tengu hotdropper caught me on the gate to enter a site. I was in the site before, saw probes on dscan, docked up. He bookmarked the gate and left system. I waited 10-15 minutes and undocked and headed back. He popped back into system and warped to gate and scrammed me before I could get aligned. I said my good bye to my 1b+ ship. and just deployed drones to fight him in the mean time. After 3-4 minutes of him orbitting me, he took off. He was only at 50% shields. I assume his friends were either afk or just out of range, because he ended up dropping someone 2 jumps away about 10 minutes after. Lucky me.

Smart money's on forgetting the Liquid Ozone to light the Cyno if he was orbiting you.

I know some guys that run these on a regular basis.

Well, there's nothing stopping them from probing you out, leaving system, cynoing their fleet back on the gate to your system, and then jumping back and tackling you for their fleet

Right, but then there would be more than 1 red and I would just warp off. Thats good to know.

I mean, the tengu would have to probe me down, come bm site, then either leave system or jump away and cyno, then come back.

That's not how they'd get you. Dscan immune recons would be initial tackle, the rest would jump into system right after. Unrelated - This makes me feel like the edgy 15 year old cool guy and it's great. I thought it'd be long dead by now, turns out it's a really capable ship.

I just finished reading Empires of Eve, and had a question about Executive Outcomes (EXE). They were originally allied with BoB, and then later joined Mercenary Coalition in the Tortuga coalition. I remember them years later in Cloud Ring during the CFC's civil war, and they sided with the nothern part of the CFC against TEST and the Honey Badger Coalition. Why was EXE invited to join the CFC in the first place if they had been allies with BoB? I'm hoping time makes this appropriate for the chill thread, but if not I'll move it to the thread of D posters.

They switched leadership and their new leader was an SA goon that had not previously been associated with goonfleet, but it made it easier to have them side with us.

PSA for people moving caps using a citadel chain: There's an exploit out there that allows someone to give you a PvP timer (or refresh your existing one) while you're tethered on a citadel. It doesn't break the tether, but it does prevent you from safe-logging, giving them the time they need to bump you off the citadel. I've reproduced it and reported it; until the exploit is fixed, you probably shouldn't use a citadel cyno to move capitals if there's any hostiles in local.

Mo was in charge even when they were fighting us. So no. The better answer is if we refused anyone with past BoB/pet history our coalition would probably shrink by half (again lol) overnight. Because you know RIP Amok. We're more likely to blacklist a goon who hosed us over than an old enemy, because an enemy is just that, a dude to shoot/be shot by.

I fell out of the moveop fleets after the first seven hours and moved myself on stations. Once I was out of black rise I didn't even have to replace my cyno ship.
