| - | NOTE: THIS SECTION IS OBSOLETE WITH THE RECENT CYNO CHANGES See: [[https://forums.eveonline.com/t/chaos-era-continues-cyno-update/182197|https://forums.eveonline.com/t/chaos-era-continues-cyno-update/182197]] for details. | ||

| - | This is a rank 5 skill under the Electronics category. Training to level 3 allows you to light a cyno in cheap frigates like the [[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Magnate|Amarr Magnate]], [[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Heron|Caldari Heron]] (or [[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Kestrel|Caldari Kestrel]]), [[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Imicus|Gallente Imicus]], and the [[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Probe|Minmatar Probe]]. These frigates have large cargo bays for their size to carry [[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Liquid_ozone|Liquid Ozone]], which is consumed when lighting a cyno for jump-capable ships to jump to. | ||

| ====Combat Resupply==== | ====Combat Resupply==== | ||
| - | Combat Resupply is one of the more exciting and rare jobs for a Logistics pilot. At minimum you need a Blockade Runner, though during the Siege of 6vdt, Logistics was jumping supplies via Rorqual and Jump Freighter. There were also regular Jita runs with neutral alts to supply the lowsec jumpout points. TEST needed more of everything, and the availablity of Logistics pilots to respond on demand was critical. | + | Combat Resupply is one of the more exciting and rare jobs for a Logistics pilot.

| - | ====Tower Deployment==== | + | |
| - | Tower Deployment can be many things, from setting up forward staging posts in military campaigns to setting up the jump bridge and cyno beacon network for our new home. This is most easily accomplished with the jump-capable Rorqual, but can be done from Transport Ships and Blockade runners as well with a few trips. If don't have a Rorqual, you can ask nicely and perhaps provide a cyno, other members of logistics might be happy to jump in everything you need and leave the setup part for you. For this type of work, you need the Anchoring skill at at least level III. | + | |
| - | + | ||

| - | + | ||
| - | ====Tower Teardown==== | + | |
| - | Occasionally it happens that we'll need towers taken down. This can be a hazardous job as you'll need a ship outside the POS shield to scoop up the mods. As such, having a T1 industrial or a Blockade Runner is generally more suited for the actual taking down part. The tower and mods usually go directly back to the nearest logistics staging station, but can be delivered to any nearby station for later extraction by Rorqual if you don't have one yourself. | + | |

| - | Deploying sov structures needs to be updated for Fozzie (Aegis) sov. The gist is you launch the structure into space, than wand it with your Harry Potter (Entosis) wand until it gets claimed ownership by our benevolent Overlords in Upvote. | + | |

| - | ====Deploy TCUs==== | + | |
| - | After successfully removing the sovereignty-holding entity from a given system, the Territorial Claim Unit must be launched then onlined. Blockade Runners are typically employed for this task. This is also the module that can be deployed in deep enemy space, into an unclaimed system, for lols (Troll SOV). Additionally, you'll have to take down SBUs at this point. | + | |

| ====Deploy IHUBs==== | ====Deploy IHUBs==== | ||
| Closely related is the Infrastructure Hub or IHUB, a sov unit with multiple functions. Chiefly it is another structure that the enemy must destroy to take a system, which gives TEST more time to organize defenses. It's secondary function is to 'Upgrade' a held system, typically used to cause Combat Sites and Gravimetric (Mining) Sites to spawn. IHUBs must be deployed from a freighter (not a jump freighter!), so the deployment tends to be more OpSec-y than other logistics things. | Closely related is the Infrastructure Hub or IHUB, a sov unit with multiple functions.

| - | ====POS Fueling==== | ||
| - | POS Fueling - For this duty, Logistics requires that you are able to fly and own a Blockade Runner or Transport Ship, however using a Rorqual is the easiest way to do this. If you do fuel a POS in a BR, please do more than one run (please). Fueling POS can be boring, with the occasional bout of abject terror. TEST has a few tools that help track POS fuel levels, including our web-based POS Tracker and homegrown Jabber Logibot (formerly known as PosBot). Below is an example of a typical day for Logibot: | ||
| - | |||
| - | ^ ''>PosBot: The following pos are low:\\ | ||
| - | >Poop Factory II; Location: OWXT-5 II - Moon 3; Time Remaining: ( redacted )\\ | ||
| - | >6VDT Staging; Location: 6VDT-H VIII - Moon 2; Time Remaining: ( redacted )\\ | ||
| - | >\\ | ||
| - | >This message will repeat every 2 hours until POS are fueled.\\ | ||
| - | >Tez: !pos\\ | ||
| - | >PosBot: Shut up Tez\\ | ||
| - | >Tez: :(''| | ||
| - | |||
| - | ^ ''(1:45:13 PM) Celestarias[Work]: It's like skynet....\\ | ||
| - | (1:45:32 PM) Merisee [B0RT]: All in favor of killing LogiBot?\\ | ||
| - | (1:45:51 PM) Merisee [B0RT]: ...just me?\\ | ||
| - | (1:45:52 PM) Rahimateh: NO\\ | ||
| - | (1:47:37 PM) Celestarias[Work]: d\\ | ||
| - | (1:49:44 PM) LogiBot: Whew I was getting worried''| | ||

| Liquid ozone will typically be available in the corporate hangars of our logistics hub stations. Ask in Jabber chat if you're unsure of where to get some. | Liquid ozone will typically be available in the corporate hangars of our logistics hub stations.

| - | ====Using Logibot==== | ||
| - | While you are in the logistics Jabber room, Logibot will automatically interrupt your important conversations to keep you updated with the latest notifications and POS fuel status. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Some important commands: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * !f | ||
| - | * The single most important command. Try to run it at least once per day. | ||
| - | * !jbs | ||
| - | * This command will tell you what jump bridges are low on fuel. | ||
| - | * !attacks 24 | ||
| - | * Lists any attack notifications in the last 24 hours. | ||
| - | * !status | ||
| - | * This command will tell you which towers are low on fuel (<5 days). | ||
| - | * !update | ||
| - | * This command will tell Logibot to update its POS fuel status. Note: the status is pulled from the POS Tracker, and not directly from the API. | ||
| - | * <del>!notifications</del> | ||
| - | * <del>Shows the last notifications about sovereignty and structures (SBUs, structures under attack, etc.),</del> | ||
| - | * <del>!weather</del> | ||
| - | * <del>Logibot is helpful and will tell you why not to go outside and fuel POS instead.</del> | ||
| - | * The weather no longer works because Google broke their weather API. Either that or Logibot became as bitter as the rest of us and no longer cares to go outside. | ||
