Honestly, I don't think many other pilots do as well. A couple of weeks back I watched a old <a href="http://www.eve-search.com/thread/1217630/page/1">video</a> by <a href="http://eve-kill.net/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=41464">Endless Subversion</a>, a very good Genos pilot. In the video he fly's the cyclone a lot, with some success. Being a cheap ship, that I have the skills to pilot decently, I decided to give it a shot.<br /><br />I checked out a few fittings on SHC and a few of his loss mails, threw a fitting together I am currently happy with. <br /><br />[Cyclone]<br />Gyrostabilizer II<br />Gyrostabilizer II<br />Damage Control II<br />Gyrostabilizer II<br /><br />Domination Large Shield Booster<br />Medium Capacitor Booster II, Cap Booster 800<br />Invulnerability Field II<br />Y-T8 Overcharged Hydrocarbon I Microwarpdrive<br />Warp Scrambler II<br /><br />220mm Vulcan AutoCannon II, Republic Fleet EMP M<br />220mm Vulcan AutoCannon II, Republic Fleet EMP M<br />220mm Vulcan AutoCannon II, Republic Fleet EMP M<br />220mm Vulcan AutoCannon II, Republic Fleet EMP M<br />220mm Vulcan AutoCannon II, Republic Fleet EMP M<br />'Arbalest' Heavy Assault Missile Launcher I, Caldari Navy Torrent Assault Missile<br />'Arbalest' Heavy Assault Missile Launcher I, Caldari Navy Torrent Assault Missile<br />'Arbalest' Heavy Assault Missile Launcher I, Caldari Navy Torrent Assault Missile<br /><br />Medium Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I<br />Medium Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I<br />Medium Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I<br /><br /><br />Valkyrie II x3<br />Warrior II x2<br /><br /><br />You may ask, "Why the faction shield booster?" Well, it helps with cap usage ALOT and it also has a faster cycle time, plus they are fairly cheap. There are tons for sale in jita for about 10-12m, so no big loss. My missile skills are ok, but I changed fitting to all lvl 5, with t2 guns and it went up 10 dps =/. Missiles suck!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Test Time</span><br /><br />My first test was merely a tank test, there was a carebear corp in my mission hub can baiting with a couple of cruisers and a bs, so I took there can and let them pound on me. It did well until I ran out of cap boosters, which was a pretty good while, I could have killed there 2 cruisers in that time and gotten away.<br /><br />A couple of days later we organize a little low sec roam consisting of me in my cyclone, <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=195916">Glokta</a> in a myrm, and <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=39434">PB</a> in a vexor. After spending a while in gallente low sec finding nothing I recommend heading over to the isho area to see if the TBR guys are around. They usually provide some good fights. On the way we find a blinky hurricane hugging a station, so we engage and he docks(not surprised). We go about our merry way, while me and PB jump ahead, glokta is sitting on the other side of the gate waiting for our cov ops scout, that blinky hurricane has followed him to the gate. He immediately engages and pushes him through to us, he jumps and I move in to point, cane primary's me and starts neuting me(ohshit), I start taking damage and lose my scram due to being capped out, I am popping cap boosters as fast as I can, and since he was outta range I decided to pop some drugs because he was neuting and hurting.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www1.eveinfo.com/img/icons/64_64/icon62_06.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 64px; height: 64px;" src="http://www1.eveinfo.com/img/icons/64_64/icon62_06.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />My vexor co-pilot was plated and not catching him(damn shield nano canes =P) and our myrm was just jumping in, I finally recharged my cap and started chasing, but unfortunately he decided to run. We docked in a neighboring station to repair and refill on cap boosters, when I hear our scout on comms report that he is back with a friend in a non blinky hurricane. Yummy..<br />We undock and send our myrm to the gate to see if they will engage, and finally, they were looking for a fight, they jumped right in and engaged Glokta. We jumped in and warped to him, primary was called as the same guy as before, but he was not trying to get range, and his shields were melting? Wait. He has reshipped, they are both in plated/trimarked canes. Damn, wait, Oh these fuckers are primary me, and neuting me. YOU GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKERS! And the next thing I remember is a lot of armor damage, a lot of gun damage, and them bitching in local. I was shocked I survived the <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=7162526">fight</a> to be honest.<br />They apparently had reshipped to kill me, 2 neuting armor tanked canes are tough beasts, they deal out serious dps and are hard to break. But I think my good buddy Glokta fitted some ECM drones that got a jam or 2 off that was a life saver.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Conclusions</span><br /><br />Man this ship is hard to fly! It takes ALOT of micromanaging! The shield booster, point, MWD, cap booster, if you are overheating. You also have to watch your cap and keep range. But it is fun and not real expensive, the hull was 14m, the shield booster was 11m, and I had the modules. If I had to guess it is around the 50m mark, not too bad for a fun and challenging battlecruiser. <br />I have been doing alot of carebearing as of late to repair my wallet, so its fun practice! And don't under estimate this ship, it tanks well and deals a decent amount of DPS, I am getting around 600dps. Fun stuff!f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-89796966090877780422010-06-23T10:00:00.005-05:002010-06-23T10:48:41.964-05:00EVE= Skill Training Online?<span style="font-weight:bold;">EVE</span><br />With every new patch, CCP releases new content that is usually worthless or nerf's a fun part of the game. There are SO many broken game mechanics that need serious attention, lag issues, and plain pve content. Yet they choose to add planetary interaction or new sov mechanics. When people want fixes for FW, fixes for RR aggression in both High/Low Sec, LAG, among MANY other things. <br /><br />I saw a good future for this game when Apocrypha hit, it brought T3 ships, wormholes, small-medium rigs, training queue, and other minor additions. All EXCELLENT additions to the game. <br /><br />Dominion was kinda bleh with sov. changes and the added lag. <br /><br />Tryagains was a total disaster, they broke contacts to all hell, lag is even worse, PI is a waist of time, the calendar is OK, 1 new ship model? seriously?<br /><br />During all of these patches they have nerfed a lot of ships/items/things(d-scanner, deep safes), and boosted most notably faction ships and projectile weapons(was needed). <br /><br />So I ask, what is CCP doing for the veteran players? Not what we are asking for, we want the game fixed, they want silly new features for marketing. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Final Thoughts</span><br /><br />Honestly, this game is a time sink. And not a particularly fun one at that!<br />You can spend hours looking for a fight in this game and find nothing, something, crap, or rarely, fun. I usually log on and look at the clock, do some roaming, look at the clock to see I just spent 2 hours and have done absolutely nothing. No more..<br /><br />So I think since I just bought a gtc, I will play skill training online. I chose not to renew my alt's account when the last patch hit and shit was so broken, so when fosters account runs dry I will not add time to it. I see ALOT of people doing the same on SHC, because they are hoping the game gets fixed one day, and they have the isk to keep buying time cards. I don't have the isk to keep buying them, but I will keep the account and toon incase they do fix the game. <br />o/<br />fosterf0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-36256843266801268892010-06-11T09:04:00.002-05:002010-06-11T09:15:51.866-05:00Babe of the week!I know I have been slacking..

It might sound kinda silly? BUT I have had the SAME <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=invtype&id=11999">vagabond</a>, yes the exact same vaga since I have been able to fly them, in fact it still has large rigs on it. Well just the other day I was telling some of my corp mates about that, and some were shocked that a PVP ship has lasted that long since the patch. They told me to store it, I decided it deserved to be retired!<br /><br />But not only has this ship lasted that long, it is has accumulated 100 kills! Yes <a href="http://i50.tinypic.com/2ytzpfb.jpg">100 kills</a> with the same ship(Number 101, was the new vaga =P)! I think that is a pretty good service record for a PVP ship so I decided to retire her in Jita 4-4.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i48.tinypic.com/1zoi7ap.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 1024px; height: 640px;" src="http://i48.tinypic.com/1zoi7ap.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />We have been in many close calls, good fights and long roams. Its final kill was grumpy Russian <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=6675436">raven</a> war target that we caught on a gate. So from this day forward, this ship shall not be used in any further combat actions and shall only be removed from station to be cleaned, space mites killed, WD-40 applied, and excess rust removed.<br /><br />In rust we trust.<br />fosterf0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-28631699009070545132010-03-31T09:26:00.001-05:002010-03-31T10:17:41.531-05:00Killrights<span style="font-weight:bold;">Long Story short!</span><br /><br />In the past week I have gotten my sec status up, enough to travel anywhere in high security space! Before this I was a pirate, shooting anything I could and when possible, podding. The results of these actions has given a lot people kill rights on myself, while some have expired, a few still have a couple of weeks left.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">You think I'm a moron?</span><br /><br />First thing I did was set everyone who had kill rights on me red and added them to my address book. Dur! So I would know who and if they are online. No really much of a issue so far, I have learned to watch local like I was in 0.0 or low sec.<br />Yesterday while sitting semi-afk in station, doing some catchup on work, I get a convo.<br />From a <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=6063468">person</a> who has kill rights on me of all people. I will just post the chat logs and let you read them. <br /><br />---------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br /> Channel ID: -9144331<br /> Channel Name: Private Chat (WLuciferW)<br /> Listener: Bfoster<br /> Session started: 2010.03.31 02:53:51<br />---------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />[ 2010.03.31 02:53:58 ] WLuciferW > 07<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:54:31 ] Bfoster > hi<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:54:48 ] WLuciferW > was wondering if your corp is recruiting <span style="font-weight:bold;">(WTF?)</span><br />[ 2010.03.31 02:55:05 ] Bfoster > yup<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:55:09 ] WLuciferW > cool<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:55:12 ] Bfoster > lemme give ya a link<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:55:16 ] WLuciferW > you guys do low sec roaming?<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:55:45 ] Bfoster > http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1283862<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:55:49 ] Bfoster > 0.0 and low sec<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:56:32 ] Bfoster > im not the recruiter.. contact Disastro or Kazang<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:56:39 ] Bfoster > they can get ya fixed up<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:56:49 ] WLuciferW > cool<br />[ 2010.03.31 02:58:46 ] WLuciferW > you guys got any ops going out tonight? <span style="font-weight:bold;">(LOL..

He scrammed me the instant he could lock me, and being scrammed in a vaga usually means death, thus I docked right back up. I was switching out to get my ruppy to fight him since he has aggro on me, when my alt noticed him undocking in a myrmidon. I quickly changed out to a hurricane and undocked. He immediately engaged, and so did I. We had a decent fight going, when he hit about 50% armor, he deagressed and docked in structure. AHHHHH<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://srforums.prosoundweb.com/index.php/fa/25260/0/"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 366px;" src="http://srforums.prosoundweb.com/index.php/fa/25260/0/" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />So after my aggression timer was up, I docked and repaired my burnt modules, and waited to see if he would undock again. He did not and I logged. <br />Honestly I think most people don't realize they have kill rights on someone, but apparently this dude did and wants revenge. <br />I invite him to try again, with less noob luring attempts next time I would imagine.f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-5474419977664985482010-02-26T13:39:00.000-06:002010-02-26T13:43:45.161-06:00Babe of the Week!There back!

For what? So the damn sentry's can shoot me, I'm already blinky. Its not like the fight is worth the 15min timer nowadays, the way this game is now, you get blobbed or blob, thus the engagement last about 1 min tops!<br />Turn this shit off for players with a -5 sec status in low sec please.<br /><br />-<span style="font-weight:bold;">Self destruct=No Insurance!</span> Easy fix, too many dumb ass pilots self destruct there ship when they are getting beat by a inferior force, because they won't have any evidence of there fail. They know by SD, they get insurance and the attackers get nothing, no loot and no killmail. Spend 15mins killing a carrier, then he decides to Self Destruct, more time wasting in EVE due to poor game mechanics.<br /><br />-<span style="font-weight:bold;">Fix Minmatar recons!</span> The web nerf sucked ass IMHO. But you also nerfed a 150m+ T2 ship. Give the recons a web strength bonus please. <br /><br />-<span style="font-weight:bold;">TRASH FW!</span> FW was possibly the worst idea in eve history. None of these faggots even give a shit about FW plex's, missions, or WT's. They blob/bait pirates and run from the other faction. If they are not doing that, they are farming the missions for the ships & standings, and never fight the other faction. <br /><br />-<span style="font-weight:bold;">Session timers are gay!</span> I totally understand aggro timers, I have no beef with them. But what pisses me off is when I dock in station, wait 30 seconds to switch ships, switch to my new ship, wait 30 more seconds, then undock. I don't ever expect this to be changed, but its another stupid game mechanic wasting time.<br /><br />That is all I can think of now and if you don't like my list, then fuck off.<br />Thank You!f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-10416419547640886812009-12-16T16:22:00.000-06:002009-12-16T16:30:42.505-06:00Babe of the Week!Merry Christmas! <br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbxZ1m2IPNNeLbcDc1W5kKPo6evjq_h_GiScE-9qxuEj5OSejKygZMl2HqOhiMoasG99cZrv-b8HSvLJNYYuxMjaQeioM8lf69DJvbOfnEayx4gd_3Pdy0QpFTOrIVAerQCbFKIY73Vis/s1600-h/christmas_mo.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbxZ1m2IPNNeLbcDc1W5kKPo6evjq_h_GiScE-9qxuEj5OSejKygZMl2HqOhiMoasG99cZrv-b8HSvLJNYYuxMjaQeioM8lf69DJvbOfnEayx4gd_3Pdy0QpFTOrIVAerQCbFKIY73Vis/s400/christmas_mo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415965011823841778" /></a>f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-80370505429734288302009-12-14T13:05:00.000-06:002009-12-14T14:39:05.254-06:00Change Of PaceMoving into a new system has a new set of challenges, of course! We don't like to stay in just one system for a extended period of time, moving around seems to keep things a little more interesting. As you know we moved to yvangier, a system shared with the blood money cartel. We'll just a few jumps over bases a very large corp, <a href="http://invicta-eve.com/kb/?a=home">Invicta</a>. They house a large capital fleet, among a 100+ player base.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Invicta</span><br />These guys have been around the block! I have lived in this area before, and they have been in FW, cry havoc, 0.0, and now they are back in FW. I don't know much about these guys, but they like playing station/cyno games. <br />They send a neutral young player in a cyno ship of some type, usually a BC. Get pirates to engage it on a station while there blob is sitting in muerthand on station waiting. What happens? Cyno gets lit!<br />1) Well if you engage it in anything less than a capital, they will jump Black Ops through and then use they jump portal to send a fleet of bombers/recon ships through to gank you.<br />2) If you engage in a carrier or other capital ship they jump a blob of dreads through to gank you.<br /> So basically they have a blob sitting on station while they send there cyno alts around baiting, hoping for a capital, but willing to jump almost anything. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af197/magikfx/faildrop.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 560px; height: 697px;" src="http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af197/magikfx/faildrop.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Skira Ranos</span><br />Not much to say here. But this dude has serious issues with this game. We didn't say much to him or his corp when we moved in, moved into a different station. But he convo'd <a href="http://evenewb.blogspot.com">Spec</a> and asked us to move or else basically so we kinda started a little war with him. No biggie, its just a game. We are both pirate corps! He has admitted(well he said it was "his members", yet he was the only one in the system) he has called invicta to come attack us, chicken shit. But that's not so bad, just being a pussy.<br /> <a href="http://kokuryupirate.blogspot.com/2009/12/python-cartel.html">THIS</a> is the real kicker, I don't give a rats ass what he calls me in game, I'm a griefer in game sure, whatever, but he is a fucking pirate whining about being griefed? Pussy! But him calling me a griefer out of game? What in the fuck dude? You are whining about the attention yet you are asking for it! I would like to know why you think we are griefers out of the game? As far as I'm concerned that is 100% carebear tears!<br /><br />Oh and Skira, fyi. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griefer">Griefer</a><br />Would appear to mainly exist just in a virtual/online world. And if it concerns you so much, I am married, 30 years old, have 2 young kids, work as a systems engineer for a computer company full time. I work all day, come home, feed the kids, spend some time with the family, and play eve online among other things(none of which are "griefing"). <br />I don't know about my corpmates, but since you know so much about our real life(and it must matter to you), you already know this about me! Oh and btw, I'm a Saints fan!

So yesterday I finally got all the stuff I was going to move from egg to yvan, moved, moved! It turns out the <a href="http://www.bloodmoneycartel.net/forum/">Blood Money Cartel</a> lives in the same system and are a little larger corp/alliance than us, but would appear to bring some good fights. Unlike <a href="http://ikillu.eve-kill.net/?a=home">DT</a>. So far they don't just smack in local with their numbers and from my experience in EVE, I have no bad feelings towards BMC. In fact I think there CEO has done some good things for newer players as far as getting them started in piracy & PVP. So I look forward to some good fights with them and possible working with them to bust some FW losers! <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Roam<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span><br /><a href="http://evenewb.blogspot.com">Spec</a> decided on BC roam with a rapier scout.<br />It was overall empty until we got into Dantumi, we found a couple a caracals jumping a myrmidon, so we decided to crash there <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=5081988">party</a>. Next we sent Necio the rapier pilot into Auro, the original stomping grounds of Python. The second he jumped in he said he had a carrier on scan's and no POS's. Then he said, "this fucking carrier is in a belt, i'm warping in". The next thing I remember is he had a point and we were warping to him. TBH, we didn't think about what we were doing and after we started killing all his fighters, we realized we didn't have enough DPS to break his tank, or if we did, we would run out of ammo. So we started calling for backup. <a href="http://pcmk2.griefwatch.net/?p=pilot&pilot=IEATCRAYONS">IEATCRAYONS</a> was able to reach former PC member, Lady Thanatos. LT brought his corp and friends with assorted BS's & BC's. Finally we had the DPS to bring the carrier down. <br />Unfortunately once the carrier hit deep armor the pilot decided to activate his self destruct! We had 2 minutes to kill him! I personally thought we were screwed out of another carrier kill! But I know within the last 10 seconds or so, he went <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=5082057">BOOM</a>! Spec tried to talk him out of self destructing, but he would not budge. We were very lucky, one ship less and we may have missed out. Big thanks to LT and friends for there help. Only 14 ships to kill a carrier!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://eve-online.itemdrop.net/eveimg/trinity/dx8/256/23915.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 256px; height: 256px;" src="http://eve-online.itemdrop.net/eveimg/trinity/dx8/256/23915.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">2 carriers 1 system<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span><br />But you said 2 carriers!

Me being a noob to piracy, I said, yup. Well a few minutes later, I had my cherry popped with a carrier <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=885656">kill</a>.<br /><br />So, yup, I LOVE AUROHUNEN!! 2 carriers 1 system!f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-70092836071167612332009-11-24T09:22:00.000-06:002009-11-24T10:12:07.336-06:00Im Back!!Well, technically Ive been back for a couple of weeks. =P<br />What am I talking about? Well I took a break from the lame and boring(still is) game EVE online, for a couple of months.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Why?<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span><br /><br />Well for one, the game was getting boring. It supports blob tactics, and the area we live in has to be the worst for it. Minmatar FW and Amarr FW have to be the worst FW groups in the game. I use to live in Gallente & Caldari FW space, and very rarely would you find them blobed up. Oh not in this area, these guys won't leave the station without holding hands.. Pathetic. So anyways, I needed a break, I wanted to spend more time with my wife and kids anyways. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Back!<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span><br /><br />So I sold a alt and bought a couple of GTC's to try out dominion. I know its not here yet, but I wanted to get a feel for the game before it was released. I come back to a pretty inactive corp! Everyone has started playing L4D2, Borderlands, and Dragon Age. I have considered getting L4D2 or Borderlands, but money is tight with 2 kids and the usual bills, so $50+ video games are a EXTREME luxury! <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Other Shit<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span><br /><br />Anyways it kinda sucks logging in and seeing 1 or 2 people in corp, and topping that off we had a huge fail pirate alliance move into egghelende, <a href="http://ikillu.eve-kill.net">Dead Terrorists</a>. You gotta love them, we have about 40 people in corp, only 1 or 2 online at a time, yet they will smack us to fight there 20+ in local. I usually undock and look for probes, and if I see they are probing a missioner. I make some comment in local "attention missioners, bad guys are probing you out!", they get really pissed and call me a fail pirate. But hey, if I can't have they kill neither can they! =P Plus I get some pirate tears out of it too, because these dudes have some serious e-peen issues!! See this locked forum post for more proof of there epeen issues, it really is a sad sad thing~~> <a href="http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1202397&page=2#41"> Post</a>. <br /><br />No I'm not whining, these dudes have not been a problem for me <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=cc_detail&ctr_id=2831">(My Kills Against Them)</a>, I don't hug egghelende, personally I hate being stuck to one system. And since its so bad with FW around here, I can't take my cruiser out(this game really sucks!), I have been roaming in my jag ALOT lately!! A ship I NEVER, EVER, EVER, flew until we moved to egghelende! But its a fun ship, tough, and fairly cheap for the damage/toughness combo! <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=96912&view=ships_weapons">My Ships/Weapons</a> Only 13 kills with a Jag.. =(<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">CSM<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span><br /><br />Since <a href="http://evenewb.blogspot.com">Spec</a> is not running for CSM anymore, I have thrown my 2 votes to <a href="http://podlogs.com/declarationsofwar/">Alekseyev Karrde</a>, I believe he the is best choice for low sec, and if anyone else did throw any support for low sec, I think they would not carry it out. I know Alek has fought in small gang PVP, from my merc days, and he is a good guy. My old buddys in Duty. always had alot of respect for Alek and Noir, and that has some weight on my decision. Good Luck Alek!f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-73151585957795724322009-09-04T09:09:00.000-05:002009-09-04T11:30:25.990-05:00Its a TARP!!!!Since we moved into egghelende, I have noticed more "traps". Probably because it is a busier system, but it has seemed to pick up as of late. Personally I think they are targeting us, the lemmings, <a href="http://www.thepythoncartel.com/">The Python Cartel</a>!! Awww shucks.<br />Well, we kinda asked for it I guess, with all of the posts on the eve-o forums and the blogs, but whatever..<br />So why am I writing this you ask? Because I just happen to have a little experience with TARPS, I spent a few months in high sec wars/Merc work after I left The Tuskers. And that is pretty much how it works out there, WT's won't fight unless they know they will win, so you have to bait/trap/catch them!!!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxn4pfe-nt-_1tm3hc_TCyRxq7YoGW2mpnaPNiOAk4FOQ57jLdQNOJltijurnPhclZS901uXV0hzubP4eWMkv2DueihF6CT-9fqgEihH_8l-J1h_ptvXNVSoB_B5YPfl8724FiK2zeRKA/s1600-h/trap.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 154px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxn4pfe-nt-_1tm3hc_TCyRxq7YoGW2mpnaPNiOAk4FOQ57jLdQNOJltijurnPhclZS901uXV0hzubP4eWMkv2DueihF6CT-9fqgEihH_8l-J1h_ptvXNVSoB_B5YPfl8724FiK2zeRKA/s200/trap.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377618872886647570" border="0" /></a><br />So here is my little guide to busting there TARP(for pirates mainly)!!!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Foster's Basic Trap Survival Guide</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">#1<span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span><br />Use common sense, if you think it's a trap it more than likely is a trap. This is your best defense!!!<br /><br />#2<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span><br />The top belt is not your friend!! IE: Drakes, Omens, Caracal, etc. just sitting in the top belt of a <span style="font-style: italic;">POPULAR</span> system is something to be suspicious of, even if they are in a noob corp. Anti-pirates, Russians, FW, LOVE this tactic!! Those are the commonly used ships for bait, and this is a hard call. Just always be cautious of the top belt in Amamake, Old Man Star, Tama, and Mara to name a few.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">#3</span><br />The Station Check! I just have to explain this one, lol. IE: If your sitting in station, pretty much alone or with a few corp m8's, you see a new red or neutral in local, he hangs out for a little while, next thing you know he docks in your station, then immediately undocks, that is a red flag, he is looking for you or trouble. Personally I love this lame ass tactic, it is so old and only the weak fall for it. OK here is the scenario, if he is sitting on the undock, he is the bait/scout, and will engage anyone who undocks, why? because he has a blob sitting on the other side of a gate somewhere close. <br />The best way to bust his plan is have a corp mate undock in a battleship or hic, something with a strong tank. Check the station, if he is there and aggresses, just have him redock. You jump into a fast HAC, a vaga is perfect, both you and your m8 undock at the same time, another corp m8 makes this even better(confuses him). But yall must undock togather! Have all of your m8's ONLY LOCK HIM!! When you undock, ONLY YOU blast your MWD, get out of his point range, and AGRESS HIM!! Nobody else!! He will then think he is under attack and call in his blob, have your gang dock and you warp off to a short range safe. Check your scans to see what his blob consists of, because you have just foiled his little trap. They will call you pussys, fail, etc. in local because you have sprung there trap and gotten away. But you and your corp mates can lulz at <span style="font-style:italic;">there</span> fail for calling in the gang, because he had nothing!!!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">#4</span><br />The WTF?! Yea, the WTF.. When you are sitting on station in a battlecruiser with 5+ corp mates in local and 3 y/o player in a cruiser warps to the station and aggress you. <br />Yes he could be a complete moron and want to lose his ship, but the chances are he has a gang somewhere close and they want to gank the fuck out of you, and that little cruiser you think you can gank, is a TARP!!! <br />Personally I would not engage a equal aged hurricane in my ruppy, I know it would rip my ruppy a new asshole. This kinda goes back to #1, common sense. I have seen these situations where just a logistics show up, but I have too often seen a blob. Use your head.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">#5</span><br />Named Ships. Be careful with named ships. Just because you see LittleBilSmith's Caracal in 4-2 with one Hobgob I and some rat wrecks, don't assume its a noob. FW love doing this to bait with. A) Check and see if there is even a littlebilsmith in local, if there is not, 100% bait, if he is in local, check the toon. If its a FW player, its more than likely a trap. If it really is a caldari toon, and is old enough to fly a caracal, I would go kill him.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">#6</span><br />Known Blobbers! This should probably be up the list higher, but it also is more along the common sense line. DUH.. You know these assholes blob! I really love when they say they are alone too.<br />Example: Before we moved into egg, we passed thru amamake to go to egg. Apparently we had been spooted by wanna be pirates in amamake, heretics. They sent some bait into egg, he immediately went to a belt and started smacking in local that he was alone and we were pussy's, etc. We knew better, he wouldn't fight 5 of us by himself in a bc, so we sent a scout in a ceptor to seiside, sure enough they had another ship sitting on the gate with another 8 or so in local. <br /><br />This is guide is just to give you some common bait/trap tactics used, there are many more used. Common sense is best tool, and experienng is also nice.ce. You cannot avoid them all, but if you get caught try to minimize your losses and know your enemy is weak, and will not fight without superior numbers.<br />Sometimes you will find bait ships to simply get a fight, but it is rare these days.<br />I hope it could be of some help and may get you out of a bad situation.f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-36979652399661138852009-08-31T14:13:00.001-05:002009-08-31T15:20:48.521-05:00Whats up?Well I was going to post about the Kenny assassination, but since <a href="http://evenewb.blogspot.com">Spec</a> and the rest of my corp mates summed it up pretty well, I will leave it alone. Actually, I had started writing about it and just didn't have the time to finish.<br /><br />But anyways, Egghelende, so we have moved into egg. Since we set a campaign on our KB, EP has done the same. So, I have also done the same on <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=cc_detail&ctr_id=2023">mine</a>. AND we have drastically affected there kills in Egg, and boosted ours. LOL!<br />Egg is a funny place, pretty much everyday when I log on, there is some kinda smack in local between somebody, mostly <a href="http://thepythoncartel.com">us</a> and EP. I think it's funny as hell how some corps have strick rules on letting there corp members even talk in local, much less smack. Python is pretty lax on this, why? BECAUSE ITS A FUCKING VIDEO GAME!!! JESUS!! Really, some corps want people to act professional, serious, honest.. Really? Is that fun? Nope. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyA1OSHRQcsRfBx_ITYGh5d2gIFPq9OXV1mQfXboY9s27NGCvJ1v7ivZZOIaGZ_XdZf3ktYVKZxuS0nc9MT0MpNjBZ9ID17pOWQGSbc5dTaHTvVi3YUdj8PRpg8ME8fbUMYZEETGuCO6w/s1600-h/serious+bizness.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 128px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyA1OSHRQcsRfBx_ITYGh5d2gIFPq9OXV1mQfXboY9s27NGCvJ1v7ivZZOIaGZ_XdZf3ktYVKZxuS0nc9MT0MpNjBZ9ID17pOWQGSbc5dTaHTvVi3YUdj8PRpg8ME8fbUMYZEETGuCO6w/s200/serious+bizness.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376215622330432546" /></a><br /><br />But Python is a pretty layed back have fun bunch. Personally I don't know much about Ken Plante, I have heard him on our vent a few times in the past and have talked with some of his past/current members. He does seem like a dick in game, tells people what skills to train, ships to fly, how to fit them, etc. I guess that is how some people get there virtual power trip. I dunno, don't care. <br />I think he has standing corp orders not to engage us unless he is online to FC. We(me, felix, and skye) busted big mouth Mash and JR while they were fighting a little gang in a Safe Spot yesterday. The little gang ran, so I chased Mash in his cane until he ran out of cap, then he ran. Even though I was pulled away from my gang, I still wanted to catch his ass. Mostly because I saw he was in a nano shield cane, and if I would have caught that fail fit piece of shit, I would have ripped it apart in my armor cane. Oh well, we got some tears in local for busting up there party.<br />Other than capital docking games, this is about all the action we have gotten out of EP. I'm sure that will change, they are not stupid, they pick there fights well and are just waiting till they are 100% sure they will win. <br />But not the Lemmings.. We fight because we think we can and we are LEMMINGS!!!!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDnh6GIplciy6M_12nDymruchtgY8VWuvVShNj-R6ajBMH68AEzCyfAL4Rdpek0DddjerrcS7cdc9FqtcfyeWKQih60bV4cLdZJDabBMmPAMWnu3W6qQqMX2k6_gFkRj4yszUcjRE9-Xs/s1600-h/Lemming.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 248px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDnh6GIplciy6M_12nDymruchtgY8VWuvVShNj-R6ajBMH68AEzCyfAL4Rdpek0DddjerrcS7cdc9FqtcfyeWKQih60bV4cLdZJDabBMmPAMWnu3W6qQqMX2k6_gFkRj4yszUcjRE9-Xs/s320/Lemming.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376224371423210274" /></a>f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-51639561009574682932009-08-17T11:06:00.000-05:002009-08-17T11:37:52.428-05:00Why do I have a Broadsword?So Why? I have a story first..<br />Just the other day in gulm I undocked my broadsword, usual procedure when I plan to gank some noob who docks in my station without the proper authorization, he must pay the penalty. I gank them all, whether its a <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=4007527">noobship</a> or a <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=4001848">hauler</a>. They all have the possiblity for hate mail, or anything. <br />[19:07:18] Luc Don > I'm actually hunting Bfoster. He just killed my Mammoth.<br /><br />Back to the subject, why have a broadsword asks a corp mate? This is not 0.0, you can't pop a bubble. True I said..<br /><br />Well, I will point you first to this post in C&P on the EVE-O forums. <a href="http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1151596">Post</a><br />This carebear thinks you need +2 warp stabs in low sec/0.0. And just the other day me, Felix, and Lach were hunting in Amamake. Not once but twice we missed targets because they were stabbed. Thus making the broadsword a valuable asset.<br /><br />Second, the tank..<br /><br />Third, Wormholes.. 0.0 access in empire, with carebears. Enough said.<br /><br />Now I will point you to my killboard, <a href="http://foster.killmail.org/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=96912&view=ships_weapons">Ships & Weapons Used</a> , almost 80 kills with the broads, and only lost one(knock on wood). Loss was a tarp in a wh, but was fun as hell. <br />All high/low sec/wh kills. 80-1 for a ship that has had its use questioned! Not too bad..<br /><br />I have caught a many stabbed ships with it, many of them bragging they are stabbed. The extended point range is also a huge bonus. So, how could a pirate NOT love a ship with a extended infinite point, and a super tank? <br /><a href="http://eve-online.itemdrop.net/eveimg/trinity/dx9/256/12013.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 256px; height: 256px;" src="http://eve-online.itemdrop.net/eveimg/trinity/dx9/256/12013.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a href="http://i.peperonity.com/c/D2CFB2/9505/ssc3/home/086/ariverslife/i_love_you_heart_animated.gif_320_320_256_9223372036854775000_0_1_0.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://i.peperonity.com/c/D2CFB2/9505/ssc3/home/086/ariverslife/i_love_you_heart_animated.gif_320_320_256_9223372036854775000_0_1_0.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Note: This post was simply to publicity show my love for my broadsword, I love you baby.

Rant warning..It was a few days ago I logged into the station in gulm as usual. Gulm is a fairly quite system, which I like. Around it is not! <br />Amamake is blob land, mostly non-blinkys that don't know the meaning of solo pvp live in there and think they are hot shit. They stick a bait ship in a belt hoping a pirate(who is usually alone or has very little backup)will attack him so they can gank him, ultimately boosting there e-peen. <br />Most of the time it is FW players, because I have learned Minmatar/Amarr FW don't plex?, so I ask why? There usual answer, "we were waiting for a fw gang, you showed up at the wrong time"(Just be honest and say we are dumb fucks who don't know shit, but yes fc, orbit, f1, f2, f3, etc). <br />Whatever, FW fights do not usually occur in belts, they occur on gates and in fw plex's(but they don't plex). I spent alot time in Caldari/Gallente FW space, and those guys actually plexed, and I very rarely found ANY of them "baiting" in a belt, with a blob on standby. I did find large gangs on gates often, but I never found them baiting in a belt. This not only happens in Amamake, but the surrounding systems, which sucks! Because you see a ship in a belt, a reasonable amount of people in local, and you want to move in for the kill. BOOM, local spike, is it just the random fw gang passing by or is it bait? Its bait, shit.. GTFO.. Too late.. Pod time.. Lame..<br /><br />Another occurrence, which was too obvious, me and a couple of corp m8's were sitting in station when a hostile pilot from a neighboring system came into local and docked with us. He immediately undocked, knowing this guy is not a hauler, I smelled something "fishy". I had also noticed a few unfriendly pilots quickly pass through local just a few minutes earlier, also indicating trouble. Lilly said that he was going to undock his domi to check it out and I promptly told him not to return fire if fired upon, that this smelled of a trap. <br />Sure enough he was sitting outside station in a mega waiting for us, he promptly locked Lilly and opened fire, Lilly docked right up as I told him too. I have seen this too many times in high sec wars. So I undocked my vaga, Lilly undocked right behind me. I smashed my microwarp drive the instant I undocked and locked him when I hit 50km, and engaged! <br />My 220mm Vulcan Autocannons rained fire on him for 0 damage! <br />Nope, he was not blinky and nope Lilly did not engage, I was under sentrys but this is exactly what I wanted. Being the poor bait that he was, he called in his troops, I laughed, why? Because I was 50km away in a vagabond and Lilly was safe on the station and had not engaged. He had NOTHING!! What a moron! Sure enough multiple battleships/battlecruisers arrived to find Lilly docking and me leaving safely. Smack commenced in local after I lol'd @ them. We killed nothing but I got much satisfaction knowing that I had pissed on the hornets nest and didn't get stung. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1PaMqXSuIVLezgqFNzNzGTb9U919pwsoku89M9K3JSV7k_Mj0SKk_IMOVz0MZvJ_pFTBTk4LbtGJkDe8rnDz2fo-VYFDT5yEJxx9jKrK_ef-zLwm6yAw-Ch3GZNQh_kxQ-U3zAAcZ_6A/s1600-h/baiters.gif"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 256px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1PaMqXSuIVLezgqFNzNzGTb9U919pwsoku89M9K3JSV7k_Mj0SKk_IMOVz0MZvJ_pFTBTk4LbtGJkDe8rnDz2fo-VYFDT5yEJxx9jKrK_ef-zLwm6yAw-Ch3GZNQh_kxQ-U3zAAcZ_6A/s400/baiters.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366894677616496210" /></a><br /><br /><br />Why do I bring this up? This seems to be the constant in eve now, bait with a noob corp player, or sit solo in a belt alone, bring in the blob to gank... But its like fishing, if the bait is tasty enough, you will get a bite.. So is it win? Does everyone really think need to bait to get a fight? Or is it just the area?

Dunno. No biggie.. Saw a couple of neutrals in system and a 1 month old dock in station just as I logged on, I said humm, these dudes usually are running indys im gonna undock my broadsword and gank his ass. I hope in my broads and undock. Do my usual 360 scan and see a cyclone on scan with 3 hammerhead 1's. Humm. Narrowed him down to a mission and relayed it to my corp m8's, they said he has been in and outta gulm all day doing missions. I say to myself, ya'll have permitted this carebear shit to go on, well not on my watch!<br /><br /> I dock the Hictor up and grab my buzzard and get to probing , I spread my probes and scan. After a few min's probing I get a hit and warp my fleet to the target. Why? I'm in a buzzard? We'll I have lost targets by a matter of minutes before, so I'll just km whore the fucker(Buzzard has a point) and let the guys kill him. I warp Lilly and Gamble to the hit and I'll be a SOB, it's a open mission with a becon, we land 100km off of him, and he warps away.. <span style="font-weight:bold;">FUCK</span>!!!<br /><br />We are sure he is coming back to finish his mission and if he does, I've decided ill take my rapier in to sneak up on his ass this time. Sure enough he is back in local, and talking like a dumbass. Ill have to get the chat log off my other PC, but it was something of the sort, the pirates are still here, ill see if they are still in my mission. So I grabbed my rapier and warped to his mission, ALLAH he is there, 50km off and has brought a rifter for backup!! OH SHIT!!! LOL!! <br />But he was burning towards his last NPC rat and faster than me, which was almost 100km off the warp in! Oh well, he did not know I was there, force recons ftw baby!! <br />I finally get into point range, decloak, lock, point, and dual web his ass. Call in the troops. They land 100km away as I fear =(. So I am alone with a 07 mission cyclone & rifter till help arrives. But wait, me and the rat are raping his fucking ass, LMAO!! I tell the guys hurry this dude is melting! And I can't stop shooting him because he is shooting me and I'm in a recon ship, not exactly a tank. Lilly gets in range just as he goes <a href="http://pcmk2.griefwatch.net/?p=details&kill=3733">POP</a>. Poor gamble didn't make it, but I grabbed the pod. And we tried to ransom it, but he said he only had 20 mil.. Have some good chats for that I will post later. <br /><br />His bio simply says, Carebear for life.. And he is in FW? <br /><br />Fan Mail..<br />2009.07.30 00:54<br />lol the toon was started in 07 on a trial account. didn't like the game so never went paid. picked it back up a month ago. Tongue btw, thanks for whover popped that bs, finished the mish for me.<br /><br />--------------------<br />2009.07.30 00:52<br />for the loot? And the corpse..

I was selling GTC's and that was doing ok, but hurt the wallet. So I decided to get my sec status up and do some high sec PVP. After a one week stench in providence ratting, I joined <a href="http://www.shootfighter.se/duty/killboard/">Duty.</a>, a well known and highly skilled merc corp. Another top notch corp that I have nothing bad to say about, but the merc business was too much like work and I joined at a busy time. <br /><br />So I said to hell with this and had a out of the blue offer to join a griefer corp close by full of highly skilled pilots, <a href="http://wshot.griefwatch.net">Wrecking Shots</a>. TBH, I was a little skeptical of them, but they turned out to a awesome group and I had alot of fun flying with them. But out of all of this I was failing to make any isk, my alt was making a little, but not much. So I joined a 100% carebear corp, OMFG, what a fucking mistake, I won't go any further about this.. Stopping here..<br /><br />FINALLY!!!! Now my alt is trading, building, and mining.. And making money!!! So now I can kill shit, and in eve there is no better way to log on and kill shit than PIRATING!!!! And since Python holds a dear spot in my heart, I called up Spec and begged him to let me in... After many hours on my knees I am back!!!!! <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ-QtFMslwYqZ5KcR9HZ8CNK8pVeBB2-ChMKSRxy5dDY2m22aDua4_lnHN8f_XVOrA3CG-_klQOjtxcnzo8I3F88kdChjlFXo_TmWtA_LS07yYefXsT5q85YGticThD-U6xbUNH_ztpdc/s1600-h/funny+edited.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 295px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ-QtFMslwYqZ5KcR9HZ8CNK8pVeBB2-ChMKSRxy5dDY2m22aDua4_lnHN8f_XVOrA3CG-_klQOjtxcnzo8I3F88kdChjlFXo_TmWtA_LS07yYefXsT5q85YGticThD-U6xbUNH_ztpdc/s320/funny+edited.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360640733240010674" /></a>f0st3rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16296678210589227939noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366798130965277.post-45762955829199935262009-07-20T15:01:00.000-05:002009-07-20T15:03:49.329-05:00So I started blogging again...No shit Sherlock.
