EVE Online - Raitaru under attack

[@delonewolf]

so the armor timers are done and we're back in the green. thank you all for the support. About the no scram in the fit, they did have 3 neutral logis on the field, i would not have killed anything on my own anyway and i'd rather cost them more time with 2 ECM, i didn't think the cap would be this weak though.

[@Nodjia]

I know it has been a while, but I am curious what sort of defensive fit you think is more effective these days? I know they have since removed the "bombs" from medium stations. My corpmate is going to be dropping a raitaru soon and we want to be prepared to fit it with proper defenses as soon as it's up. Recommendations from someone experienced would be most welcome.

[@theLifeSentence-oz4jy]

Nodjia the fit of the structure really doesn't matter the standard missile launcher neuts scram and tp is fine but the only way to repel an attack is to have decent dps sniper battleships on station I use 4 186km 1300 dps battleships

[@Fractal227]

Give information of when the next timer is for armor and lets setup a fleet to defend the structure.

[@ScriptedSloth]

It's crazy that such a large structure can be taken down by just a handful of ships.

[@gamingwithegoon]

considering ints a civilian building i dont think its that strange.

[@timh35]

If a handful of ships battleships (which are massive btw) are sitting there shooting rockets and blasters at a space station i think its going to get critically damaged pretty easily.

[@mmoarchives2542]

@@timh35 only if they use torps with damage mods

[@uncletimo6059]

Warp scrambler is a must in a structure like this - lesson learned. I feel sorry for you.

[@DoddyIshamel]

Wouldn't make any difference here, if the vindis were any danger the guardians would just rep.

[@Mcjayc]

If the guardians rep the vindicators they become suspect and can be shot by any party not just those involved in the war

[@TurikoYemontoshi]

@Ville, 99% of the time that won't matter, though. Neutral reps are a thing and go without serious risk mostly because it relies on someone neutral and pvp fit to be there for it to be even a risk. And that's assuming that neutral (actual neutral) party will then actually engage.

[@DoddyIshamel]

Yes, which is why they were being careful and not repping. But the third party would need to be able to break the guardian reps so unless a passing gang happens to notice its not a problem.

[@terryfuldsgaming7995]

Um... Warp scrams have a very short range, what would possibly make you think the ship wouldn't just out range the scram and warp anyway? Derp. And seven thumbs up? Lol, lots of derpsters here.

[@Kiddoomer]

At which hour (eve online time) will the timer ends ? I could make a little sooner than planned a corp for myself to be able to join for the wardec, I have logi and ecm ships 1-2 jumps away from Dital.

[@wandererfux]

love when you showed how the attack looks, those that watch and know or care jack shit about eve like me care about the visuals a lot.

[@zinoonomiwo]

Depending on when it is, I can come to help out?

[@delonewolf]

everyone is welcome to come take a look, it will be what it'll be.

[@crashtestdummy9985]

Ironically, having Red Glowing Dust playing in the background, while it shouldn't fit the mood, actually does pretty well in this case. Fit's your calm "not going to let it bother me" attitude nicely in fact. Anyways, GL, mate.

[@ryanbthiesant2307]

I didn't see the icon above your Cap meater to show you being neuted. Maybe the ECM is draining cap?

[@Demagoguez28]

i thought they fixed the neutral reaping exploit. is that still a thing? the 3 neutral repping them at 250km is bull

[@gfox9295]

they weren't repping them. they were there in case they had to rep. Guardians can't rep from 250km. Presumably, if warping off the Vindis that got deep into armor to rep and come back had been affecting their DPS too adversly, they would have considered having the Guardians warp down closer (or possibly they would have just warped up to the Guardians, either way). Or maybe they were just a trump card against a defense fleet showing up (which didn't for that timer, at least).

[@SMSGTREUSTER]

The Capacitor is so weak, that's almost broken

[@crashtestdummy9985]

It's the ECM. They eat through cap like a fat kid in a candy store.

[@theshi3152]

also dont burn it past 30 odd % or you recharge it slower. there is a point of no return if you will. unless you leave it alone.

[@jetblackstar]

if I'm reading eve time on your recording right 14:32 at the start of the video. so everyone asking when the timer is, 24 hours after that (sat 14:30 ish eve time gmt ). what are the latest agro rules if we're in Fleet with delonewolf? can we agrees the war deccers?

[@DoddyIshamel]

Nope you need to be at war as well. But if their neutral logi rep someone at war they go suspect and anyone can shoot them so even as a neutral it is worth being around in these situations. One neutral Rook for example can neutralise 2 or 3 neutral logis if set up right. The armour timer passed safely anyway, i went and had a look and the Raitaru are both back on normal timers so the war deccers need to attack shield again if they want to do anything. The probably just did it for exposure, killing citadels is not that alliances normal style.

[@DoddyIshamel]

Also Raitaru has terrible cap, even with max skills. 2 ECM is very cap hungry. Your Structure timer will be next Friday if it happens, not Sunday.

[@TheGentlemanGamerGG]

If you get a support fleet to help, I think you can hold it!

[@gamingwithegoon]

it will take to long to get my main in my other corp, but i can try and come with some of my alts. when is the timer?

[@fridaddy9463]

I am looking to set up a Rairaru. Is there a skill requirement for fitting a standup ASML Missle Launcher on a Raitaru?

[@delonewolf]

i don't think to fit them but there is a skill for them.

[@tdwolf1017]

How to repair the appointment?

[@leesteam]

Is it ok to send you a list of questions in evemail? Thank you for all the videos, i dont get to watch them, but i listen to them during my 1 hour commute each day. Wonderful knowledge you are sharing.

[@DennisDinges]

What would have happened if the group had bring 5 Nestor, remote repping each in a chain and remote repping 25 Garde II sentries?

[@mmoarchives2542]

and drone modded to use sentry drones 325km away

[@gfox9295]

a bit late for this advice, but.... good advice in general: find a way on your screen to have your local window much taller than it is in this video. mine, for instance, shows 42-43 names at once and is almost as high as my monitor resolution allows (I have it start right under the system info/route). You mentioned early on in the video that you saw a bunch of reds in local but I'm not sure how. the entire time you can only see the top 8 or so people in local and none of the people attacking you are in that list... and you don't scroll down. I have another window with chat channels + my d-scan and my probe scanner all blocking my view of the chat portion of my tall local window, with the list of pilots in system visible to the right side of all those other things. Local is a valuable source of intel, don't restrict it by making it so tiny!

[@xmanii]

Can you show a screen shot plz?

[@orkunsevengil336]

Why no damage application.Whats the dps.

[@squaldown]

cant you fit a warp scram in the raitaru? Hope all ends well

[@DoddyIshamel]

He could have and should have.

[@squaldown]

Yeah with one i think he could get 1 or 2 vindis out of that reinforce

[@DoddyIshamel]

Nah, the guardians would have repped. But for the next two cycles if you have a scram you can hold a target for a support fleet.

[@Dodge0359A]

He needs to equip a warp scram on his structures. Even if the Guardians had repped the other ships, they would have become suspect and could have been held down and shot at by the structure, in addition to anyone else that might have wandered by.

[@Hottube581]

Point web only last 30sec.. still won't help much.

[@thsaintful]

what form of "neutral" support can we set up to help?

[@rake483]

Oh noes, delonewulf is under attack! Unfortunately i have little time for EVE during the holidays, so i cant help.

[@mixalisvatraxopoulos8203]

is the astrahus harder to kill than raitaru?

[@crashtestdummy9985]

Yes, the Citadels were meant to be much tougher to bring down than the Engineering Complexes.

[@DoddyIshamel]

yes, though either is very vulnerable without protection.

[@tjlambaes]

When you said you had the war deck I was a little worried! I will help you in any way I can.

[@TheZliP]

Stealthed outside =3 3 hours 25 mins left.. Wonder if they'll show up x_X

[@jokerash]

my former alliance did this for daily job: find targets in hisec with structures, wardec them, destroy structures and enjoy loot and salvage. you need to have a defense fleet at all times. you were lucky that they didn't come like 15-20 ppl like we did.

[@TeamBitTalent]

Where is Concord?

[@rolandrayar9336]

what if I'm factoring in your facilities and they are destroyed ? Will I be compensated for the loss ?

[@delonewolf]

no, you will lose the materials for jobs in progress, the rest including the blueprints goes to asset safety.

[@rolandrayar9336]

what is asset safety ? how can I recover it ?

[@delonewolf]

its automatic, if a structure is destroyed the stuff in it goes through asset safety and can be recovered from the nearest npc station in the same type of space (hs, ls, 00)

[@aliahmadov624]

Hi, delonewolf, who were the guys attacking though?

[@gwab5834]

Can you give logi support to a Raitaru?

[@mellender0]

what name do I warp too

[@TheZliP]

tragic to lose a base to wardeccers... if theyre so good.. why are they not in wh/null-space?

[@Unrealpb]

You can clearly kill a vindi, why don't you have any scrams/disrupters on the structure?

[@jeffreyroe8939]

That's why they had neutral logi. If he would have pointed one logi jumps in and point means nothing.

[@Hottube581]

Still no work. point web last only 30sec..

[@jonnoMoto]

I wanted to help but the route was almost 50 jumps away

[@Capt_Schwartz]

You need a fleet of Rattlesnakes for protection and retribution.

[@AHuerta25]

Hope all goes well, got some jobs in that place myself I need to check on.

[@TheBienator]

you can't neut a structure. you had no cap because the ECM module is extremely cap hungry.

[@mmoarchives2542]

you can actually, and the modules he was using wasn't ECMs they were cap boosters

[@Parobro]

Delonewolf, when is the next timer? i will come to defend it ^^

[@delonewolf]

around 16:00 EVE Time

[@Parobro]

delonewolf any doctrine aviable?

[@Parobro]

delonewolf ok it's almost 16 eve, I think you will not come online to tell me the wardecked corp etc so sorry, can't help you

[@rocker617]

I know one of those chaps sue abbott up to his old tricks

[@arist84]

If a nutreal player starts repping yor Raitaru does that count as aggression against the attackers?

[@DoddyIshamel]

They can't be repped, if they could it would be broken since damage is capped. If you do rep someone/something in a war you get a suspect timer and anyone can shoot you.

[@Muphet]

can you remote cap boost citadel?

[@TheBienator]

no. you also can't neut it

[@Muphet]

well then gotta wait for capital repair ships now lol

[@egoon97]

eh what do you think a carrier is? :p

[@DoddyIshamel]

not a repair ship since force auxilliarys are a thing....

[@Sir_Loin_Of_Beef]

You should drop the missiles next time, neuts and ECM are generaly great force multipliers for defense fleets but neither citadels nor indu plexes can defend themselves effectively. Poke me if you want, I'll bring some nasties to help out on the second timer if it's not in the middle of the night :)

[@D4rkS4v4nt]

who were the Guardians? thats a bit naughty that they are using neutral guardians so that you cannot attack their logi until they start repping

[@reznorms81]

Im not that far from Dital, I may try convince some friend to wardec those guys and be around for the next round.

[@mellender0]

is that your eve name

[@VexWerewolf]

They need to let you cram a lot more weapons on these things.

[@Neonshards]

Its almost like its an engineering complex or some such, maybe if we had access something designed for combat/defence. I reckon they'd call them citadels or something.

[@VexWerewolf]

Man, it's almost as if it would make more sense to be allowed to equip more weapons to these industrially and economically significant targets, rather than the citadels which are basically just space shanty towns that have no economic value and only serve the tactical purpose of providing a staging point.

[@spd-cw2sd]

Ok well I used your link to start eve so I was just wondering if you got your PLEX from the referral . I joined a neighbor corp did not even know they where a neighbor till watching this video and recognizing the name DITAL . Since people can leave a ship and a clone in this station why not just have a bunch of friends leave ships here and leave there Skype number so you can call in the cavalry when needed . And the structure is still there so they did not succeed in killing it . I understand your name is delonewolf is that your in game name as well ? . And in a game such as eve I think its always good to have friends that can watch your back .

[@NepoznatYuspeedy]

Can you make a 1 man corp and transfer the ownership of the raitaru to that newly created corp ?

[@egoon97]

i dont think so. dident work that way with a pos so i guess nether with this.

[@DoddyIshamel]

nope, you can only transfer to a corp in the alliance which therefore would have the same war dec.

[@BaronVonSparklefarts]

sue abbot long time my friend, long time

[@alkainhighwind2181]

You should have a web/point in the mids for hs forcing them to use logi becasue with low skills in structure stuff your cap will die to fast to be effective, but thats just my 2-cents

[@ArchFline]

I wish this wasn't in high sec I would bring my carrier fleet :/, well depending on what time the next fight starts I'll see about bringing some Domies to fight them.

[@TheZliP]

well... get there and pick them off one by one ;D cant wait :3

[@mostlypeaceful5621]

put one ecm each on two of the guardians, and put dps and scram on the third to breaks their logi chain and stop them repping each other. you have to get logi off the field first

Tell everyone they're at war with where they'll be; might be what they're hoping for but it should be interesting either way. If you could get scram you'd have had a chance of costing them at least.

I have not played for a long long time. And I must say that EVE gone mad. Structure (!) have problems with capacitor (!). "Docking permission requested. Not enough energy to open docking bay, pls, wait for a while". The concept of structure that have 24 hour shield for reinforce but is uncapable of non stop supplying ECM is ridiculos.

[@MarkTarsis]

So take away from this, a POS is far better for idie guys that need a research platform. Or if you want flexibility. Or if you get attacked. Or if you want a structure that can actually kill things.

[@egoon97]

they will fase out a pos, so at some point you wont even have the option any more

[@MarkTarsis]

I know POSes aren't going away until after drilling platforms. So hopefully they'll do something there or some other "small tower in the middle of nowhere" type structure indies can use. I think if they tried to phase POSes out without a decent replacement it'd rock the markets.

[@AlekseyevK]

POS are cheaper, that's the only advantage. Easier to kill, smaller bonuses, weaker defenses.

[@MarkTarsis]

I've since moved from my POS to a Azbel because there's one 2 jumps from me and it's easier to manage jobs. The POS bonuses in every single manufacturing category were better.

[@gfox9295]

Yeah... about that. POSes are getting neutered bit by bit starting this summer. They want everyone into the new structures ASAP. Outposts can't be put up as of December, they'll be converted to Fortizars later... POSes will be defunct in a matter of months. Citadels, Engineering Complexes, and (soon) Refineries are the only way to structure it up soon.
