Originally by: Nightwings First off let me say I have nothing against piracy. Love it being a part of the game. I understand when you go into low-sec space be prepared to lose your ship.
BUT, I don't like the pvp part of this game, so I don't do much of it. I Do like the mission running. I do lots of it. I run them out of a 0.5 sec area, with some missions taking me into a 0.4 area 1 jump away. I always went prepared with stabs. Since the patch, my 3 stabs raise my targeting time to 2 and 3 minutes for lock-on. So, I took them off knowing that I would only have to worry about gatecamping. But now with the new scanning equipment, pirates can find you while you are on a mission. And yes, I got jumped in the middle of Tech Secret3, killed and podded.
This is the end of just about Anyone running missions solo in low-sec space. Me included. Unless I can a bunch of sensor upgrades on top of everything else in my ship I don't see how it can be done solo.
So you want a place in EVE that would be safe from PvP for running missions by yourself? What you have just described isn't EVE.
Also the way you mention the sec status of the systems your operating out of gives me the impression you assume that high security systems somehow mean your safe. You're not.
All you people who keep thinking you should be safe somewhere and how the pirates aren't fair because they can do A, B and C to get to me are wearing thin on me. Stop thinking about things as a game. "I should be safe somewhere in this game because I"m on a mission..." and start thinking about your ships, as ships. Your modules are equipment on your ship that perform a function irregardless of the fact that you're out on a mission. Start thinking about what's happening in EVE as if it were real and it will click inside your minds. Why would modules have selelctive functionality. (Scan probes that don't find people on missions, NOS that leaves you just enough cap to warp away etc. etc. etc.) I'm sick of hearing it. ________________________________________________________________________________ "My once immaculate white pants are now stained from the weak and innocent.
