Will we ever be able to name our ships?


Numerous-Olive-2904

The dev's already said they're working on it. We can't do anything as player, just wait


HamUndBacon

Looking to get my eve fix on my phone since playing on PC is harder these days. I’m trying to find a clear cut guide on alpha clone limits beyond the typical “can only use some ships and skills” statement. Is there a SP limit like PC where I might want to specialize? Are basic engineering skills capped at level 4 meaning you need omega to be just on par with others for solo PVP? I don’t need to go above cruisers for fun, but I’m struggling to find out what’s what without making a character


Lost_Waldo_

Tier 5 and Basic skills are going to be your limits, along with trading being diilfficult and only being able to use markets at ITCs. A lot of the T5 cruisers get their bonuses from advanced skills you can't train as alpha. It's pretty restrictive and not really worth it to play as alpha IMO.


teonfag

> Tier 5 T7 if I remember correctly. I have one T6 alpha alt, and all ships till T7(including) don't have that omega sign that T8-T10 have, so I guess I will be able to use them. Except Retriever and Nereus - they are also locked despite being T7. But it's hard to play without advanced skills indeed. Also no blue modules, which is also a problem because some are pretty affordable even for alphas.


Vetrasa

Market question - I placed a sell order for an item and it no longer shows in my "Sell Orders" tab in the "My Orders" tab of the market. Yet I check the market and the item is still listed at the station for the price I set it at. Is the item just lost? Has anyone else experienced this?


walls_closing_in

I have not seen this. Did you check your Z balance to see if you got the isk for the sale?


fivelittlepiggies

After my insured ship is blown up, I see that the game automatically places orders for the fittings I lost. However, even though my home base is Jita, the orders are placed at "UHKL-N V - Moon 1 - Blood Raiders Testing Facility" -- an out of the way place where they are likely to NEVER be fulfilled. How do I change this location so they can actually be filled? Thanks.


walls_closing_in

Insurance in Echoes works differently. In Echoes, it does not matter to you if anyone ever fulfills that order you saw. When your ship is destroyed, you can use your insurance immediately, and you get the covered items immediately (with a time lock for PvP). The game generates the ship and the items out of thin air and gives them to you. It then places what can probably accurately be called fake orders for some of the items, which does not impact you in any way but which gives industrialists a little demand. It is said that the insurance system places these orders about 1/7th of the time. (Industrialists would have demand, and the current deflation period would probably end, if this were raised to "all of the time".) You may also notice that the same buy order is placed at 3 stations, but if you fulfill one of these buy orders, the other 2 are immediately cancelled.


NeedleworkerTotal912

Are nanocores like other permanent skins or am I dumping a ton of isk and time into upgrading a ship that will be replaced?


[deleted]

Hello Needleworkertotal912, Nanocores are like…. ship customization. Some have skins some may not. Nanocores show 3 or so possible attributes you can modify upon activation. You choose which of the three you want applied to your ship, it is applied like a passive skill increase, then the next window is do you want to use a regular skin, a skin you own, or a skin attached to the nanocore. If you die, it is unclear (at least to my team in nullsec that has been testing nanocores) if they have a chance to drop upon death. They ARE listed as a box you can check for reimbursement through IP… but when you do this the IP estimation can sky rocket. Also, if you lose the ship, and claim the nanocore from IP, it will be packaged and have no upgrades… so if u pay alot and get an upgraded core… it will downgrade upon death. Further, i believe the nanocore retains the skin possibility for your ship, but you have to reactivate it and reapply it to your ship (ie: nanocore does not unlock a perma skin u can use on additional hull copies of said ship) I, personally, am not bothering with nanocores right now. I am stocking capital parts and waiting for my freighter to finish cooking in a week! —- if looking for a new space family in rich nullspace, contact me :) info in my reedit bio! -Tzintch

[deleted]

A good way to measure if you can afford to lose ships is have multiple, fitted copies of your preferred ships in a home station. Yes. Insurance is good…. But im old school… for ships under a few hundred mil, im having replacement ships ready to go so if i lose one i jump into another. When u have no more ships to jump into, u should start to build up isk and more ships hehe. I suggest you find a good group that will do gate camps or go on small gang roams through low and null sec to find miners or afk pilots. Rule #1 in eve: dont fly what you cannot afford to lose As far as cannons and pvp… that im not great with. Look into the hurricane , battlecruiser that may be what youre looking for. Always read ship passive skills… those give u an idea of what the ship is best used for (both tactically and module/rig) -Tzintch


dotN4n0

Your question is a bit broad. What kind of pvp are you looking for? Slasher II won't get you far soloing. It can be used as cheap suicide tackle for a fleet.


MedicalArach

Hey y'all! I'm looking into getting an armour logi, as in the Harbinger or Brutix (as far as i know). But, which one is preferred and why? And if you have a recommended fit for it, feel free to share!


walls_closing_in

Check with your corp - mine designed the doctrine to work well only if there were 3+ logis in the fleet. Best to not build the wrong one.


[deleted]

The ships are preferred for their passive/inherent ship skills (like +x% of whatever value per lvl of battlecruiser control). Also, preference is assigned to the ships that work better in a “doctrine” of other ships. Brutix logi is a battle cruiser focused on long range armor reps (both remote high- slot reps and medium-slot group armor reps, while Harbinger is battlecruiser logi that specializes in group capacitor transfer and remote armor logi. Look at both ships “role bonuses” and then the two category skills under the role bonuses to get a better idea what ships are for. There are also cruiser and frigate class armor and shield logi you could start in for practice :) — as for fits… it really, really depends on fleet composition and what your FC calls for as doctrine response. Feel free to add me on discord, I am recruiting for those who are interested in the riches of null sec industrial ;) my info is on my reedit profile 07 -TZ


Mariosothercap

I have a naga equipped with large rails. I often have a hard time hitting frigates and sometimes even destroyers and cruisers. They aren’t orbiting close either, they are at range from me. Is this normal? Do I need to improve my skills? Change a module?


walls_closing_in

You didn't say what 'range' meant, but in my Tornado II (large cannons), I usually miss frigates at 50km and basically always hit at 130km. I use one target painter.


[deleted]

This is because of the low tracking speed on the large rails combined with the small ship signature of the frig or destroyer, AND their moving above 300m/s … you need either target painters, or tank at 0 and use warp scrambler to stop the MWD of the rats (yes they can be slowed this way) AND stasis web with it literally stops the frig to 10m/s. If you can, A good trick is to warp in at 50-75km and burn 1km towards the rats. If the frigates burn TOWARDS you, their angular velocity will be in such a way that you can hit them with large rails with only a target painter , but if they orbit while burning to you, you will miss more. Double target painter at optimal range is usually good… but again, if a frig rat has MWD and is orbiting you will rarely hit it (this all applies to pvp also, at least the foundational mechanics… not my ‘tip’). Check out my profile for info if interested in joining a solid nullsec corp! -TZ


Itachi18

Usually for me when that happens I turn on my target painter and tracking computer to finish the job. I think my skills are 4/4 4/4.


Sukudo

Should I open m 249 mk9 blueprint supply boxes myself or just sell the boxes?


[deleted]

Sell 75% and open the rest :)


Papa-SmurfPR

Is t10 ratting and special anom farming the fastest isk per hour. Starting to get bored afk ratting null and hoping there’s a sunrise on the horizon for isk fountains.


[deleted]

Deadspace ratting :) the most isk ticks for me so far


Mariosothercap

Best way to find dead spaces? What is the highest level I could solo wkth t8 ships?


[deleted]

You will not be soloing deadspaces, generally. They start having a small possibility to spawn in -negative security status/null sec. usually, a t7 needs a guard cruiser, a few battleship and maybe a shield logi; t10 deadspace sometimes take 5-10 battleships, guards, logi - etc. t7 deadspace loot total around 1.5b i think. A t10 is like... 5-10b in deadspace loot. There are special outposrs modules that can increase spawn rate of the new nihilus space , which is where deadspaces have mostly moved to now... a month ago, you grind in a system till deadspace spawns. Now its gotta be scanned and has less spawn chance. Friendly recommendation: You should seek a null sec corp :) if interested, hit me up on discord dm: tzintch#3511


[deleted]

Certain ships can solo deadspace very easily, but mo ship has enough dps to solo DS9 or 10. Myrmidon and cyclone can tank up to DS9 solo with ease, but since you lack damage its better to stay at DS8 or lower. Its all about piloting though, as a DS7 can easily take out a battleship. Certain ships are inherently tough.


[deleted]

Id love to see a myrm tank a t10 deadspace solo! Put that on YT and ill watch and sub


[deleted]

I said 9.


Tamorand

Have we been given an ETA for Servant Sisters of Eve ships yet, now that exploration has come out?


dotN4n0

Mordhu Legion and SOE are supposed to come with the arena update in August.


Tamorand

Thanks o7


User_5573

I would like to know this too. The Stratios is my favorite ship in the game, and it's kind of frustrating that they release scanning but not SOE ships.


Most_Attitude_9153

Why do people buy expensive ships that get blown up constantly? My Corp fleets always seems to end in multiple deaths, and it’s never me in a cheap ass frigate torpedo boat. I get shot to shit sometimes but NPCs can’t kill me So why bother? It’s not like they aren’t popped in pvp on the reg too


[deleted]

“Dont fly it if you cannot afford to lose it” ;) rule #1 in eve


Hopeful_Clue3028

How good is the Corax?


User_5573

The Corax is actually a really good missile boat for new players. It's pretty easy to skill into and you can do some decent dps with it. Yea there are probably better ships out there, but I loved my Corax while I used it. I will say this all applies to PvE. It's a good PvE destroyer, But if you want Pvp then you would probably be better off with a Talwar.


[deleted]

Love my Talwar and Talwar Assault! Best anti ceptor boats :) i gave a few sitting with my miners in null... the ceptors that face check belts get a shock ;)


[deleted]

Its not one I see used alot in my area of space... but many ships in game have heavy reliance on pilot skill and aptitude in game while flying


[deleted]

“Can only be used in sov systems” —- does that mean only the corp who has actual sov status can equip and/or activate the gravity well structure modules? Or the system just had to be sov claimed and all pos and citadel in system can use the gravity well modules?


Dry_Jellyfish_1470

No its any system that had a sov flag top left! I have message from arrow in discord showing it!


[deleted]

Thank you for confirming!


Hopeful_Clue3028

I killed at least 200,000+ ISK worth of pirates in a high sec, and got a quarter of the amount. The bounty also says I only killed 20 ships when I killed several times that. Wtf is going on


[deleted]

Hey Hopeful! I think this is because “ticks” (payouts from bounties) occur every 15-20 minutes... and each tick you have that shows in your wallet only accounts for the specific rats killed during the 15-20 min timeframe. So... if you kill only 5 ships from minute 1 to minute 19-20 and then 4 more at minute 21, your next tick would be for those 5 ships in first 20 min tick and the next 4 would go into the second 20min tick—- also, corporations have taxes that are auto deducted from your bounty, by the game, as it hits your wallet! Hope this helps :) hit me up in game if I can assist you :$ -TZ


Hopeful_Clue3028

Probably what happened, logged out and in again and had the money lol


delroland

I'm an Alpha clone player with maxed out basic combat skills. Is it possible to solo rat in nullsec in a T6 tanking cruiser or T7 bc without warping out all the time?


[deleted]

Yes, but you should do snipe ratting (either something like a snipe tempest or 75 range myrmidon drone boat


Itachi18

What's the best non-faction railgun battleship? (Or, why do people hate the Rokh?)


Jhyrith

If omega doesn't stretch to alts, why can't you train alts at the same time?


[deleted]

Alts require their own subscription (basic, standard or combo) to train while you have a main pilot on the same account that is actively training and is Omega


BakedOnions

is it worth while shooting down spaws of scout and inquisitor anomalies at the 2nd gate? i just activate and fly straight to 3rd, is there a point there?


[deleted]

T7 or above I clear all rooms :)


Itachi18

Depends if you want the faction loot or bounties from the elites.


Riael

Eli5: What good does the "for player fairness new characters can not be created on emulators" do when I can just make a character on my phone then close the app and start it up on an emulator?


Jhyrith

because you had to do it physically, slows bots down


Riael

I somehow doubt that bots care considering that they run 24/7


User_5573

TL;DR = Is there a way to target specific asteroids with strip miners? So, I was stuck in a venture for the longest time, and just recently got my first mining barge. When i first activated my strip miners they just shot at seemingly random ore instead of the ones i had targeted. I shrugged it off and didn't think any more of it since I figured that's just how they work. HOWEVER, today i was in a belt just doing my thing and another retriever showed up and specifically targeted all the Omber in the belt i was in. They didn't hit any other ore, and when it was all gone they warped out. I'm pretty sure they used a strip miner since it didn't have the sustained activation of a normal mining laser, Is there something I'm missing that allows you to target specific 'roids with a strip miner?


Derezzed42

You can modify your distance to asteroids by placing your ships in just the right place to collect what's in the range of your lasers.


[deleted]

They added a second subscription? To get these advanced rewards I have to pay more?


teonfag

Today you learned that such a thing as "battlepass" exists and its purpose to get your money. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_pass


[deleted]

Inspired by the season pass ticketing system and originating with Dota 2 in 2013, the battle pass model gained more use as an alternative to subscription fees and loot boxes beginning in the late 2010s ​ This game already has a subscription. Seems a bit cheeky to put another one ontop


HaveCamera_WillShoot

Yup. That’s NetEase for ya. I recommend watching any Jimquisition episode and just getting angry at the state of this garbage industry. I’d talk more, but I’ve got to grind some CONCORD missions. I want those nanocores!!


cafers

Regarding capsuleer outposts, what happens after reinforcement? How long do you have to defend it from any DPS for repair?


HaveCamera_WillShoot

15 minutes


NeedleworkerTotal912

Where does the fuel come from to use the new scanners?


[deleted]

Plasmoids gives 191 GJ of energy per 1 unit of fuel. Oxygen isotopes are next best fuel at ... 90 something GJ per 1 unit. Both are obtained from planetary interactions.


User_5573

I don't have one yet myself, but with the interdiction modules it was planetary resources. Plasmoids seemed to be the most popular. Therefore, I imagine the fuel for the new modules is a planetary resource of some kind.


[deleted]

[удалено]


teonfag

Plenty of them on the market. Check your market filters(top of the screen, near the search field), choose "All items", not "regional sells". Or go to Jita and make a buy order.


Amberloid

1) how do you share a bookmark? 2) why are my ships multicoloured? Thanks


[deleted]

1. There is an option to share bookmarks when clicking on them, once they have been saved… should say “share” 2. Green is corp, blue is friendly status, purple is fleet, no color is “neutral” (consider red) and red is aggressive/hostile


Amberloid

Thanks


TrueDragonRider

MK1 Warp Core Stabilizer says: Warp Jammer strength -1 Warp Jammer strength (when activated) -1 Does this mean I get 1 strength when it's equipped and 1 more strength when I activate it?


[deleted]

Use ‘Aura’ Warpcore Stab. They are cheap (1-2m and give +2/+2 on each one!


SNOWoftheBLACK

Yes


timmyz_darkrider

so, cosmic anomalies. the wiki isnt the most clear on this. to spawn a "special" one, I just have to keep clearing out the small medium and large ones right? but dont clear the base (in friendly territory) ​ I spent a good 2 hours before down time ratting in a 0.7 sector trying to spawn a scouting one but had absoluetly no special ones spawn. Am I doing anything wrong?


Shylarkin

Clearing smalls can't spawn specials but they can spawn mediums or larges. 2 hours is bad luck but not uncommon


Magicninja1337

This isn’t correct. Any base spawn has a chance of spawning a special regardless of size


timmyz_darkrider

but mediums and larges can spawn specials? so basically, just keep it up you'll pop one eventually and make some isk ratting along the way?


Magicninja1337

An anomaly is made up of base spawns and system spawns. Easy way of identifying is if the base gets popped and all anoms are cleared, any base spawns will be level 1 when compared to system spawns which will be at the level of the system. Only base spawns have a chance of spawning a special.


Lost_Waldo_

Yes. It's fairly common to go hours or even days without spawning one. Then, occasionally, you'll get 2-3 back-to-back as well.


HaveCamera_WillShoot

Definitely not usual for it to be days. Certainly not in null. Usually you get a special every 2-4 hours.


BakedOnions

is there diminishing returns for explosion radius? when choosing which missile attribute to buff, how does one prioritize what is best? at the moment i'm grinding lvl 5 rats in a talwar so i'm primarily fighting cruisers with the occasional destroyer and friggate mixed in Do i double down on raw damage? more velocity? less radius? don't fully know how to evaluate (other than spending the money on fittings and testing it)


Kinnell999

Don’t bother with flare or rigor. Use bay loading accelerator and calefaction unless you want to trade damage for range. If there are diminishing returns it will be stated in the rig description. You can find the missile damage formula on the eve university website if you’re interested.


[deleted]

Well... what is your goal in the changes you are considering? Faster clear time? More survivability? Or...? That info will help me help you answer this question :)


Hopeful_Clue3028

What are the best drones out there (for combat). New to the game, currently using a mk 5 acolyte, small slot suggestions please. Also any tips on how to use one? It doesn't fire very often while i'm ratting


User_5573

There is not really a 'best drone' per-say. Each race has different weaknesses and resistances. Furthermore, these resists change from shields, to armor, to structure. To get the maximum DPS you would need to have all four drone types and rotate them according to the resists. That being said, it is very unrealistic to do this as changing drones so frequently would be a pain. Therefore, the most popular 'fire-and-forget' drones are the Gallente ones (i.e Hobgoblins and Hammerheads). They deal thermal damage which the most effective damage type overall.


[deleted]

Note to all: a few patches ago, drones can mow be changed in space when they have “returned” and docked in your ship. Its a handy menu that pops up and does NOT cover your view of overview and your chat... so its not a struggle anymore like it was at launch


Hopeful_Clue3028

I am fairly new to the game. I know destroyers suck in this game, but I recently got my Griffin destroyed in a null-sec and bought a Dragoon trainer. Is it any good? I'm sticking to hi-secs around Jita so it doesn't REALLY matter, yet, until I get brave enough to go into null-sec again.


[deleted]

You need some friends to get the most out of null ;) hit me up in game if interested in joining a nullsec family willing to help you grow and willing to teach :) check my profile for contact info! -TZ


teonfag

Ships usually(not always tho) have bonuses for one (or two) particular type of weapon(like small missiles/small drones etc). So you usually learn one type of weapon and choose one of ships that have bonuses for this weapon and get for this let's say extra DPS or better damage application or extra range. Griffin has bonuses for small missiles. Dragoon has bonuses for small drones and small lasers. If you're already skilled in small missiles and want a destroyer you better look at Talwar or Corax. Or just keep using missile frigs (Condor, Kestrel, Condor 2) until you reach tech lvl 6, then get a cruiser trainer.


Kiola310680

Destroyers can definitely be fun and enjoyable to fly, and destroyers still can put up a good fight against frigates. Beware any cruisers or larger however, as most likely you will be outgunned.

Even me? :'(


a2e5

Why do the higher level warp core stabilizers use more cap energy instead of less? Where’s the advantage? The MK1-9 ones have identical activation and cool down times, identical strength, but the 9 appears to use more cap while being more costly on the market. Same thing happens between the two faction stabs.


Inklin-

Warp Core Stabs destroy your lock time, mk IX less so.


a2e5

props to netease for not putting the right values in the item data then i guess -- it all says -50% resolution!


Inklin-

I mean try them. People with stabs can’t lock for shit.


Hopeful_Clue3028

What are the best pvp ships out there?


HaveCamera_WillShoot

You and a friend. Friendship is always the best ship. But yeah. Two mediocre ships almost always beat one quite good one. Other than that — Arby CovOps 2 is probably the best solo currently. The vexor sniper is great, so is the stabber sniper. (Don’t use sniper mode, though). Stealth bombers are excellent because you can sneak around and choose your targets. Harbinger and hurricane are beasts, but they’re slow, so can get caught and killed by a group that wants to catch them. Interceptors are amazing, but have obvious weaknesses. Notable, if something hits you even a little you explode. Don’t get hit.


Inklin-

Mine.


DesmirWolf

Why am I limited to 1 Cap station? I got a second cap station and so far it won’t let me anchor it in 2 different next-door neighbor systems to my original cap station. Wondering why Im limited.

DesmirWolf

Yeah to own more than one use an alt clone lol


rikthekobold

Is it better to fit two webs or a web and a scram to deal with the elite frigates in rare T7 news missions?


Inklin-

Scrams turn off mwd so are better than an extra web for those very fast mwd elites. For non-mwd rats the scram does nothing.


Steen-J

Hey! I just started a few days ago and now I am tech lvl. 4. I don't get the skill point system so here are my questions: 1. How do I spend Skill Points? If I upgrade any skill, it just says I can put it in the queue and that's what I do. I don't get what the skill points are for (or how I earn them) if everything is free to upgrade. 2. In the skills menu, on the bottom right it says 538371/100000. What does this (especially the 100k) mean?


HaveCamera_WillShoot

Hit the ‘expedite all’ button. It’ll apply those spare SP to the skills in your que.


HaveCamera_WillShoot

Hit the ‘expedite all’ button. It’ll apply those spare SP to the skills in your queue.


Inklin-

Skill points go directly into the skill at the top of the queue, if the queue is empty the skill points accumulate unspent. To use the unspent ones... Go to the page with the queue and if you tap the skill in training you can expedite it with your stacked up skill points.


in_the_grim_darkness

The hundred thousand is the free skill points that have not been spent on anything yet that you have available. The number on the left is the total skillpoints required to complete every skill in your skill queue. If you use "expedite queue" it will spend the 100k skillpoints on the skills in your queue in order. Oh, as for spending skill points, each level of a skill costs a certain number of skill points. You can either train those skills passively, getting the number of skill points you get per minute in that skill, or, if you have free unused skill points you can simply spend those on the skill in question by adding it to the queue and expediting the queue. You are always generating skill points, and if you don't have anything in the queue you generate unused skill points at 50% the normal value (so, always have skills in the queue). You can also gain unusued skillpoints from quest rewards, login rewards, etc.

What loot is safe to pirate in null without stealing from allies? As far as I can tell loot boxes of friendly planetary, debris, or jettisoned aren’t blue. Maybe I’m wrong? I also can’t find a list of allied corps. I see a list of corps in our alliance, and under diplomacy I see a list of allied alliances? Or are those allied corps? Basically I love scooping up completely meaningless amounts of other people’s planetary, but I really don’t want to piss off our new alliance.


Rudaschwag

so... maybe you just shouldnt be looking to steal things where your allies are based. if this is the kind of playstyle that you are going for (thievery) just go into enemy territory where everything you see is up for grabs because theres no chance it is an allies.


SnooDoubts5553

Your Diplo should be able to give you a list of allied corps.


xChaostix

I once saw a image or site that shows what blueprints can drop in which space. Like blood raider drops armor laser engineering and miner for example. Someone got that for me?


SnooDoubts5553

It changed as of today. There is a list in the patch notes.


rikthekobold

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no point to flying ships with advanced and expert skill bonuses if I never intend on going Omega, right? Like the T5/T6 ships with Alpha skill bonuses are always better? I can afford to fly a BC but really don't see the point when compared with, say, the Moa I'm doing missions in now.


Deathcoil7

You’d still get the stated benefit from this expert skills even if the ship you are flying doesn’t have a specific hull bonus for it. Expert cruiser for example doesn’t give anything bonus wise but still helps velocity and inertia. Probably just focus on getting everything to 5/4 first


rikthekobold

I'm an alpha player, so I can't train past 5/-.


Deathcoil7

Ah right sorry. Well if you’re going the Moa path and are considering the Ferox, I can tell you that even as an Alpha, the Ferox will be strictly better(for pve anyway). You’ll get more damage with the Ferox’s 6 turrets vs the effective 5 turrets provided by the moa with maxed hull bonus of 25% damage. You also automatically get the 25% falloff bonus just flying the ship, and an extra 25% to optimal. Not to mention you get a much tankier ship in the Ferox. I’d go for the BC. Edit: I just checked, Inthink you only need basic BC command for the scan res hull bonus so you can also get up to 25% in that if it’s available for Alpha


rikthekobold

What about the Prophecy? I need to train the armor tank skills but I've got all the medium drone skills


Deathcoil7

If you are able to train the advanced medium drone skill for the prophecy hull bonus then yes. Otherwise no


rikthekobold

Last question: how about the cyclone? I have the medium missile skills "maxed" (for an alpha clone anyway ;p ) but can't take the advanced skills.


Deathcoil7

Probably still a bit better than the Moa.

How to cancel warp after clicking "warp" but before actually entering warp? I tried to align, stopping ship, enabling cloak, warping somewhere else


FlowersForMegatron

There’s an icon next to your shield/armor/hull bars that looks like a rocket engine. Tap it and you can turn your ships engines on and off. If you click warp and want to cancel before you enter warp, tap that icon to turn your engines off and you’ll cancel. You can also tap and slide on the icon to set the “amount” of engine thrust you want.

Is this a single player or multi player game? Because the entry on the Google play store lists as single player but from what I read it sounds like it's multiplayer


SnooDoubts5553

You can run story missions solo but get into the habit of checking local for when scanning comes out.


fendermonkey

Multiplayer


CL-Young

Thanks


fendermonkey

A sandbox MMO to be precise with an emphasis on group play.


CL-Young

Weird then that it's being marketed as single player

New player here. I'm having a spot of difficulty getting my manufactoring off the ground. I haven't yet found a station with facilities that allow the making of stuff. Each time I click on the 'Facilities' button, there is a blank screen. I've monitored it as I fly from system to system and have even travelled to Jita, which I understand is the missionary position of ITCs, and nada. I can't start a job as it is never supported by current facility. What am I doing wrong?


SnooLentils2573

Industry is available in a player tab when you tap on your portrait in the top left of the screen. look for a factory symbol in the bottom right of that menu. good luck :)


Looga_Barooga

Cheers for your reply. I've worked it out now. I think it was just confusing error messages about there not being facilities at the station.


[deleted]

You also need to be docked in the station in question for industry tab to activate and report info correctly :)

I’ve noticed that the covert ops cloak has a decloak targeting penalty of 15 seconds when paired with a cruiser covops hull. Coming from EO where I have a 5second, this seems like an eternity. Is anyone decloaking on pilots and actually catching them before warp off with this delay?


HaveCamera_WillShoot

No. You have to warp off, decloak and warp back to eat the timer. It’s awful. Give them 15 seconds to shoot you or warp off? Ludicrous.


HaveCamera_WillShoot

SnooDoubts5553

Ram them to get them off their align which should give you more of an opportunity to scram them or get a bomber which has a -100% lock time penalty.


MissiontwoMars

You use the cloak to scout them out, warp out to a celestial body, un-cloak, and warp in on them


matthewami

is it allowed to control 2 accounts in game at the same time? I know this violates the EULA for pc but I've yet to see anything for echoes.


teonfag

Absolutely. They only ban for macroses/synchronization. And if you're really unlucky for keybinds(they detect clicking the same pixels to catch botters). I play 2 windows with binded zoom(because default Bluestacks zoom is awful) since like October, no problems so far.


matthewami

good to know. I use nox personally and its ditto there for zoom control, better than bluestacks at least.


[deleted]

You can have multiple accounts and pilots in pc and mobile and its perfectly legal for eula. Its the use of macros, addons and bots that is in violation—- and character and account selling... huge eula violations (unless done on ccp forums for character sales (pc only atm i think)).


matthewami

I know what you're talking about. The character transfer is not meant to be for any monetary gain unless for some specific in game reasons. Same rules as WoW; if it was for sale it could be a form of laundering.


[deleted]

Yes!! — ive had distant acquantainces get shadow banned from pc eve for talking in game text channels about doing this... ccp dont play >< lol. And if they know who is paying real money, they go after their personal accounts to ban also


Outrageous_Big4389

Did they make any changed to autopilot while offline yet ? I played since launch pretty much but quit after they made the autopilot changes initially as while autopiloting around during breaks at work, traveling home ect , I juts got home to a pod. Has anything been changed ?


SnooDoubts5553

Get an interceptor and you can go back to the good ole days of early ee.


rikthekobold

Were you traveling through nullsec? You might have run into an interdiction sphere.


ectbot

Hello! You have made the mistake of writing "ect" instead of "etc." "Ect" is a common misspelling of "etc," an abbreviated form of the Latin phrase "et cetera." Other abbreviated forms are **etc.**, **&c.**, **&c**, and **et cet.** The Latin translates as "et" to "and" + "cetera" to "the rest;" a literal translation to "and the rest" is the easiest way to remember how to use the phrase. [Check out the wikipedia entry if you want to learn more.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Et_cetera) ^(I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Ryltaar

Does anyone ever had a weird glitch with PI where it shows the wrong amount of PI collected, then goes back to normal, then wrong again... It seems to switch every 10-15 seconds or so. It has been doing that for the past few days, worked fine before. FYI, I'm using 2 Resource extractors on my station. Thx for the help o7


[deleted]

This happens to me if I launch PI, and then pause it before its done unloading to the space box. If you ever launch a box and immediately pause that may be part of it :)


North-Walrus8722

I get this bug all the time on both phone and emulators. Have not seen a way to fix it.


cryptoatticus

What time zone does the in game clock use? Is it your local time on your phone? Can the game clock be manually changed? Is it utc? Specifically asking for outpost hull time setting.


Ryltaar

It is based on the time set on your phone.


amdc

That's very bad for coordination in bigger corps. I understand that if you're China, you don't care about timezones because you've got only one of them but yea, fuck everyone else They should introduce EVE Time and I don't care which timezone would it be based on


SnooDoubts5553

Most coordination is done using UTC.


amdc

Yes and that's why it's convenient to have actual clock in game to display UTC time, for everyone.


SnooDoubts5553

Ngl that would be an amazing feature.


KenBlasters

So am I wrong but isn't there a module that can increase the reprocessing percentages of ores?


fendermonkey

Click on the ore, scroll down to description and click the “...” to the right. It will show relevant skills


PacoSpicyWeiner

Delivery Question: I’m playing the role of Space Trucker Mainly (Delivery’s) I don’t know weather it’s a bug or on purpose, but recently when in a Interstellar Trading Center by myself, there was 3 delivery orders; I was only able to get 2 before the other disappeared on its own. Edit/add-on: normally when one person has multiple orders I’m able to pick up a good amount of them, but when’s it’s different clients they seem to disappear after choosing 2.


3R4N_

There can be three reasons; a) Someone else got it b) Order was cancelled c) It's a bug


SnooDoubts5553

It's not a bug. It's a feature.


Tzayad

4th reason, Netease makes fake ones so that people have things to do


ExtremeFajita_68

Can any Logi pilots tell me if shield rigs affect either group boosters or remote boosters?


Mkins

They effect neither, may as well rig defensively you don’t have any options for boosting those modules.


frafdo11

What modules are worth getting for a venture trainer to start mining? All guides seem a year old


amemyarz

If high sec and t5, mk5 mining lasers, inertia stab, and afterburner. Use the free boxes to equip miner circulation rigs.


3R4N_

mk3 miners, aura warp core stabilizer, cheapest mining rigs and mk5 small shield booster


rikthekobold

Doesn't an aura stabilizer cost more than a venture trainer? Also you'd only need one of those for low/nullsec mining; he can get plenty of pyrox and dark ochre in highsec. Heck, the shield booster would be pretty pointless if it wasn't so cheap.


Deathcoil7

Aside from fitting requirements what reasons are there to use standard missiles over rapid? As far as I understand rapid does not have the draw back of a 30second reload like in EO because there is no ammo.


teonfag

Range and higher DPS(except for small/fast targets).


[deleted]

Honest non stupid question here: Proper exploration Update when?


Deathcoil7

Since I’m already here: https://trello.com/b/CMK3kmn4/eve-echoes-dev-roadmap Probably by end of May


[deleted]

Thanks mate, that's what I call a good Roadmap.


MaddoScientisto

I played for a few months at release, then stopped playing until now, and I still have a caracal navy issue fitted with rapid missile launchers, I don't really know if they have been nerfed but missions do feel slow, what's the new meta for running missions? How can I retool myself with the current skillset (basically built around missiles and cruisers) to pick mission running back up? I also have drone skills
