This weekend was awesome.
First I went back to empire on Friday and decided, what the hell I’ll do a mission. I wanted some rig parts and well it’s one of the best places for it. So I got “Worlds Collide” level 4. If you didn’t know this already this is the hardest mission in the game. Many like myself always skip this one as it’s just too damn hard. Not me!
I’m in the process in finishing off making this video at x8 speed complete clear duel-boxing it, I cleared every single room. Also got an overseer spawn that dropped a Slave implant worth144m isk.
On Saturday back in 0.0 I decided to do some exploration. A few more skills finished and I thought perhaps it would be enough to find one. So I started dropping Multipecs around a few systems and got a unknown hit. Setup my quest probes and book marks. Hour past and my probes expired. Setup the probes differently and new book marks and tried again (thank go I can do other things on the other accounts). 4th scan I got a result!
Fast forward I found 4 results and finally found a Gate. Gurista Military base. I read in the Plex database this plex required 10 battle ships and was extremely hard.
So I called in some friends on short notice and there were 6 of us I was the tank and I had my alt in a Osprey taking care of the logistic part. Who ever said you needed 10 Battle ships was full of it. You could duo it with a logistic ship in tow. First room about 30 battle ships, 15 cruisers and 10 frigates (at once), at first I was on the line with my tank, it was extremely close to breaking, but after the frigs quickly popped it was doable. I did however ate up all my Cap boosters like candy to make it happen, but no warp outs.
2nd room omfg. Another large spawn, after it was cleared we had to destroy a station, this station does 6k EM damage (none of us fit EM as the npcs we were fighting didn’t use em) this station does that amount of damage every 30 seconds. In one volley I lost my alt Osprey, another volley later I had friends warping out. Three of us left we get it to structure and it finally stops (this thing has a ton of HP!) Down one Osprey every comes back, we blow up the structure (no Escalation) another group spawn with a 10.5 bounty dread spawn! All said in done our luck was not with us. No faction loot, just named crap, lost 2 Ospreys. But after the bounty and salvage still made out pretty good.
I stopped all my alts in their tracks training, to switch to Osprey training. With 4 Ospreys in tow I can tank 1600DPS and that’s just t1 fitted, and without the Raven running the shield booster. Should be finished on Tuesday and I can 5 box most 10/10 plexs.
The following day I find another site, but it noted it wasn’t really worth wild. I decided to go ahead and give it a try. I jumped in to the system and started making my way to the site with my Ferox first (Its salvagers destroy ships don’t last more then 1 second in a belt). As I begin to warp local filled up as I was now the victim of a logon trap. Knowing I had no chance in hell I figured I’d try to pull the same thing and logoff skid myself. When I logged back in he was in station at the cloning facility, live in learn that doesn’t work XD
But on a good note I always scout with the cheaper of the ships first so I was able to turn the battle ship around, get help and have my revenge AND got most of my loot back and enough to pay for another ferox lol.
Rest of the weekend was spent doing pvp, I think I got 22 kills this weekend which isn’t too bad. Decided to to try a ECM boat, and thus far I think I’m going to stick to using it for a while, I feel it brings more to the fleet.
A crow fully fitted costs 18M and has shlt dps (but it’s not designed to be a damage dealer).
A Blackbird fully fitted is 5m and I can jam 3 ships at once. Crap dps for a cruiser of course but its better then a crow. So I flew this extremely cheap shit all weekend and it wouldn’t die! I haven’t lost it in fleet vs. fleet yet. I had to warp out a few times being primary but over all I experienced the effects it has in a group environment and I like it. Pretty soon I’ll be training for Heavy Interdictor, which really isn’t all that long 20d to learn the ship and the warp bubble. The bubble is what takes all the time.
