Dreadnaughts have become very powerful in the current state so it doesn't take enormous fleets to kill a lone Titan if you use dreads. Also 25% of the damage as well as the killing blow was provided by a Titan DD, which does a poo poo ton of damage on its own.

I like the random rorqual on the kill mail.

Vily posted his AAR on reddit already and According to his own report

- Prepped his own ships (This is a freebie - Of course he should do this himself)
- readied a recon cache
- Pushed more dreads into a readiness state
- Spent 2 hours making unified bookmarks
- Made Fleet MOTD's and layouts

Now. I'm not an alliance leader. But that seems like more than what one person should do

I like how he said he prepped his ships for final combat. Yah ok dude.

How much time you can dedicate weekly on eve ? How much of it is in a single long play block. This is why structures in current form are broken.

FWST fight showed us that a defended keepstar timer can take easily 8hours of time.
Each online keepstar have 3 timers, assuming that all of them are defended you can simply get into a conclusion that in order to kill each keepstar you need on average 3 x ~8h blocks of undisturbed gamplay.

Unless someone will decide simply to not defend a structure, there is no way to shorten this time, the moment we hit TIDI 10%.

Timers on the structures are also happening in a specific hours and in defined period one after another.

We are having bit shorter timers for other structures due to less forces required on attacker side to hit the damage cap.

The problem still persist that in order to win a single timer you need to spend multiple hours on grid with multiple days one after another.

This leads to a situation that if both sides are showing up you can kill 1 keepstar per week and spend in the process **24h of your free time** on this task.

In a year you have around 52 weeks, so if you decide to invest all your free time during a week in a 8h long blocks for **a loving year** you can win 156 timers and kill all those 52 keepstars.

But it will cost you all your free time in a year.

Why it is important ?
Because goons have more than 52 keepstars in delve.
On top of that sotyios, fortizars and thousands of smaller structures.
Not even mentioning the fact about sov timers.

This war will lead to situation were many players will quit EVE just because **how boring it will be** when in order to kill a structures in a single region you need to dedicate yourself for over a year.

Over a year of every day timers and every week keepstar timers that will consume ALL OF YOUR WEEKNED TIME.
This will affect both attackers and defenders.

WTF CCP.
There is no Delve Fortress all things can be killed, and goons proved how.
But to kill stuff that is now in a single region people need to deny all free time for a YEAR.

**TL;DR:**
Remove artificial damage cap and this is what i can say.

we bit off more than we can chew :qq:

We somehow caught this keepstar in its initial 15 minute anchoring period, if I'm understanding this right. It's paused right now. If we fail, then we get another chance in 24 hours.

This is accurate. It is hard to catch the anchoring phase. Always get a make up chance 24 hours later.

I don't mind the changes. I have an `A` name and am usually out pretty quick, so I just need to make sure SRP covers the cost of the ship completely. I just Plex sometimes if I need cash, gently caress ratting.

This is the weirdest part, if they really wanted to root us out, they should be round the clock entosis trolling to fill up our timer board.

It's almost like they don't know how to do a war for sov. Just content keep stars, content shooting cyno jammers, content dropping structures in 1DQ.

OVERALL PAPI COALITION OBJECTIVE

Removal of the Imperium from Delve.

IMPLIED GOALS (in no particular order)

Glass Fountain
Glass Querious
Wreck Imperium industrial capacity wherever it may be
Make ratting and mining in Imperium space as annoying as possible
Destroy entire Imperium capital fleet

Bleed Imperium isk and resource wallets

And because you all seem to have a hardon for Vily. His impossible to achieve goal: remove goons from the game.

I had fun last night. Raven fleet isn�t for me as I think most people in the alliance are morons and battleship fleets tend to attract a significant number of morons.

I joined bomberwaffe after welping my first raven and had fun dropping 8 bombs.

I'm excited to see what happens now that they have their beach head. No salt here on that strategy. I am glad CCP decided to clarify game rules so we can figure out how to own there.

Edit: on a funny note someone from KarmaFleet in our bomber fleet almost destroyed the entire fleet while we were heading home. Luckily he only killed 2 ships and send dozens of others into hull.

Not sure what's going on but boy people are being a bit salty in fleets and local the last couple of days on our side.

This is the most fun I've had in Eve for a while so not sure why they aren't enjoying it.

I�ve been in some fun loving fleets the past few days and haven�t experienced any salt. 🤔

Finally getting Jackdaws trained has added to more ways for me to inevitably land on grid and get primaried as an A-name-haver.

Up next, Munnin training, or maybe a slippery Pete.

And I got a medal for returning to the game. Thanks Goonfleet :3:

yeah, like i explicitly noped out of supers because of time restraints like that

then 2020 happened and i wfh and suddenly i can sit in a battleship and click a button every hour or so and actively contribute and its not so bad

Yah. I can spin in station while working and take a quick fleet here or there during the work day if I have time.

When we are in a war on our doorstep, it means I don�t have to travel for 30 loving minutes to fight. It is typically <5 jumps after getting a bridge.

Means my fleet participation is way up.
