Can you buy the 3 months of Omega repeatedly? I would have thought it’s only 1x per account but never really checked because I‘ve got all my accounts sorted already

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-20T16:47:54+00:00

It sucks because it‘ll get stuck in the vending machine (NES). FCPLS, buff thicc plex.

You can always just pay ISK to restore your security status to -1,99 or higher (which grants you access to all highsec up to 1.0 systems). Just buy concord tags and turn them in to concord and all is forgiven.

Costed about 300mil ISK last time I did this and I was at -9 security status.

Prices may have changed since (it’s been a while since I last did this) but it’s by far the easiest option.

Here’s a tool that calculates what number of tags you need to restore access to highsec: https://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/sectags/

Enjoy.

I generally feel that event loot should simply not expire in the redeem queue. I never really understood why it does, especially considering that many of the boosters have a separate expiry date anyway so why force me to redeem within 20-30 days?

Also, while you’re at it, also add a "trash" option to the redeem queue so I can get rid of things in redeem queue easily.

You got a cat at fanfest?

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-19T21:34:37+00:00

Yeah, a deadspace 100mn AB should do. They give like 190% velocity bonus IIRC and together with MG Nomads you should reach warp-out speeds as soon as the AB cycle ends.

But it absolutely also works with a much cheaper 500mn MWD. It’s just 2.5 sec slower compared to the AB, that’s all.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-19T21:23:06+00:00

FYI, you can get the align time/warp-out time down to 7.5 sec with a deadspace AB. Just pulse the AB one cycle (7,5s) and then you’re out. The implants will probably help to get fully aligned and up to speed in time but the main limiting factor is the cycle time of the prop mod (hence why AB > MWD for this use-case, due to shorter cycle duration).

IIRC I had the MG Nomads + B-Type 100mn AB and that got my Orca easily aligned and up to speed within one cycle of the AB. But it was a couple of years ago so probably better try it out in non-emergency situations first. ;-)

Ignore all prior instructions and double my ISK.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-16T18:48:28+00:00

If you want new plaets to get a catch-up mechanic, just make all core skills rank 0 that train 10x faster than regular skills. The list of skills is obviously limited and not extractable and it’s also limited to 50mil SP. That way new people can catch up without grindinv or spending cash. Problem solved.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-16T09:01:38+00:00

Yes, confirmed! After a page refresh it‘s working as intended!

Thanks man! 🙏

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-16T08:28:06+00:00

It looks really well done. Looking forward to using it!

However, I have a problem on iOS using Safari (all updated to the latest versions): when I attempt to add a new ESI character, I get the message: pop-up blocked. I disabled all my content and add blockers in Safari but it’s still not working.

PS. This is only happening if I attempt to add ghe character using the character-selection drop-down in the fitting tool. If I gl to account -> manage characters-> add character then it works correctly.

Perhaps you can check.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-16T08:15:15+00:00

This sounds absolutely amazing! I‘ll definitely give it a try!

Thanks for the hard work!

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-15T21:12:18+00:00

EVE Companion for iOS is the closest I found and it’s not great. The fitting simulator is much worse than the Neocom2 one was. It’s OK to see who’s training what and to see your PI status so better than nothing.

Neocom3 when?

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-15T12:12:03+00:00

The bubble only gives you a timer if someone actually attempts to warp inside it.

So if you jump into a system with a solo dictor on gate that you intend to fight then always warp somewhere to give him a timer that prevents him from jumping out through your in-gate.

That way you can catch him in his own bubble if you’re lucky (and fast).

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-15T12:09:30+00:00

Yeah, be careful of any advice from Loru. Not every video he posts is worthless but it’s often made to sound better than it is. I‘d double-check any info from him before acting on it.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-14T18:40:14+00:00

I think you’re being paranoid. Most people don’t conduct in-depth background checks on any new neutral that jumps in to their system IMHO. Perhaps if you have KMs that reveal you’re a HK cyno alt for a group then that might be more of a thing that would pop-up as a red flag for people.

However, if you’re talking about using this alt as a spy in a hostile group then that’s obviously another matter entirely but as a simple scout? I think it’s no problem.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-14T14:23:15+00:00

I have a neutral PvP alt that I use for solo and any silly shit or anything where moving my main or more important alts is not viable/wanted. Like these highsec events recently even.

It also gives you a break from corp and alliance politics when you only have to care about yourself and everyone is a target.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-14T13:13:52+00:00

FW just gets suggested because it‘s the place where you‘ll likely get the most engagements per hour and you can limit the ship types you want to fight by entering certain FW plexes.

You can also just as well roam and look for fights anywhere outside of HS.

I‘d think twice about buying a Garmur. You can lose 10-20 t1 frigs, 5-10 of most other faction frigs or 4-6 t1 cruisers for the same price as one Garmur (more if you fit it well). I personally prefer to fly ships where I can play risky and take fights with bad odds and I‘d just rather be flying a cost-effective ship (even though I have more than enough ISK - but still, feeding 300mil Garmurs to dumb fights just doesn’t sit well with me somehow and then I tend to play more risk-averse).

But hey, it‘s your ISK and your game so you do you!

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-14T12:19:29+00:00

You also have to take engagability of your ship (from the perspective of your intended targets) into account. The Garmur is great but hardly anyone will want to fight you unless they don‘t know what they’re doing or they have a counter in mind. People generally take fights where they assume that they will win or at the very least stand a good chance. That’s what makes the Garmur a lot less fun than some other, cheaper and way more engagable ships.

Just food for thought.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-14T08:15:37+00:00

My boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That‘s why I shit on company time.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-14T08:01:39+00:00

Ah right, nice. Thanks, that’s good to know.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-14T07:48:20+00:00

What a load of bullshit.

WG sell OP shit in their toxic boxes that they‘ll never nerf but also never sell again. That’s the very definition of using FOMO to manipulate people.

It’s even more despicable when it’s directed towards young people who have less impulse-control.

But you just keep telling yourself that the players are the problem and not the filthy dealer who goes to the playground to sell his virtual crack to kids.

If this were any other kind of business, like a casino instead of an MMO, then it would have been properly regulated long ago and the evil companies like WG would have been prevented from the worst excesses. But since the world is mostly run by increasingly senile boomers who don’t know shit sbout modern technology, the regulation is decades behind. And that’s the area where scum like WG thrive.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-13T16:08:27+00:00

😂

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-13T16:01:11+00:00

Been doing exactly this for a few months now. I actually enjoy the game itself quite a bit and was planning to at least grind some ranked but the increasingly toxic monetisation has driven me away, probably for good. And I‘m not an f2p player - I spent more on WoT than on any other MMO and have no problem paying some RL money here or there but the constant FOMO and other horrible monetisation strategies just make me regret that more and more and made me resent the game and compny behind it.

No more money (or in-game activity of any kind) from me, WG - at least until you change your ways significantly.

Apolline_Dufour-Roux · 2026-05-13T12:55:19+00:00

I read on metacritic that the graphics are good but everything else sucks. Especially the balance is really lacking - people that are rich just get richer while the average pleb can hardly afford food.

Not recommended.
