- | ===== Questions ===== | ||
- | * **"When you light a cyno everyone in the system can see it, right?"** | ||
- | * Yes. This is why you never use a jump freighter at a POS, even in low-security space. The guns won't save you, what will happen is your shit will be raped silly and they will lose one or two battleships, if anything. | ||
- | * **"Having two alts is so you can light 2 cynos in a system to halve the chance someone will find you?"** | ||
- | * No, they are in a chain. One alt is at low-sec friendly citadel that connect to high-sec. The other alt is at the 0.0 point. If there is a mid-point needed then you add another alt to make it easier. In order to make things really effortless you want as many accounts as you need cyno points. Otherwise you are relogging clients and shit. | ||
- | |||
- | * **"Am I grossly overestimating the number of cynos you'd need to light?"** | ||
- | * For a VFK-based Deklein service, you would need at most 3 cynos up at the same time, plus the jump freighter character. | ||
- | |||
- | * **"Which jump freighter is best?"** | ||
- | * The [[eve:ships:capitals:rhea]]. Period. Case closed. | ||
- | * Actually, this guy is a liar. The Nomad and the Ark are the most cost effective when you compare the Isotopes:cargo ratio. It depends on your volume, though. The Nomad uses the least amount of fuel by a fairly wide margin. The Rhea uses a lot more in comparison but doesn't hold a lot more. | ||
- | |||
- | * **"Really?"** | ||
- | * The [[eve:ships:capitals:nomad]] is the most cost effective because it uses the cheapest kind of jump fuel and because it can align faster than the others (especially useful in high-sec), but in general capacity is the most desirable attribute for a jump freighter in order to best minimize effort. Fuel is usually easier to come by than effort. That means you want the Rhea. | ||
- | * The Nomad doesn't use the cheapest fuel, it uses the LEAST amount of fuel per jump. Important difference to notice. And yes, it does align and warp all mega-speed like. Nomads and Arks are incredibly cost-effective to run since they also don't use Isotopes that are often interdicted and/or manipulated(Gallente and Caldari) | ||
- | |||
- | * **"What about the Anshar?"** | ||
- | * Okay, I can get behind the [[eve:ships:capitals:anshar]] because having Gallente Industrials trained to 5 is amazing. It's also the second best freighter by capacity. It's more that the Anshar is solid, and the [[eve:ships:industrials:iteron_mark_v| Iteron V]] is by far the best industrial. The [[eve:ships:industrials:viator|Viator]] is pretty good as far as blockade runners go, too. |
