| - | This is EVE, so there will be maths. Mercifully this is some relatively simple maths (at least compared to things like the tracking formula). | + | **[[training:game_mechanics:signature_radius]]** is how EVE measures the 'size' of your ship. |

| - | Lock time = ( 10000 / scanRes ) / ( asinh ( sigRad ) ) | + | |
| - | </WRAP> | + | |
| - | scanRes is the scan resolution of **your** ship, sigRad is the signature radius of the <wrap em>enemy</wrap> ship, asinh is a trig function, you don't really need to know the theory behind it. Beyond that it works on diminishing returns, as you add more and more the amount of change gets less and less. | ||

| - | As a quick example: A [[eve:ships:battleships:megathron|Megathron]] locking a [[eve:ships:frigates:punisher|Punisher]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | Lock time = (10000/95)/(asinh(38)) | ||
| - | = 105.26 / 4.33 | ||
| - | = 24.31 | ||
| - | |||
| - | So that's approximately 24 second lock time. | ||

| - | ==== Changing Signature Radius ==== | ||
| - | There are a lot of things that can increase sig radius, though interestingly not very many that lower it, all of which are fairly niche. | ||
| - | * [[eve:ship_modules:propulsion_mid_module:microwarpdrives]] apply a massive multiplier to your sig radius when active (a T1 microwarpdrive gives a 500% increase) | ||
| - | * [[eve:ship_modules:shield_mid_modules#shield_extenders|Shield Extenders]] will bump up your sig radius by a flat amount, which is applied before percentage modifiers | ||
| - | * Fitting [[eve:ship_modules:propulsion_low_modules#inertial_stabilizers|inertial stabilizers]] or [[eve:ship_modifications:rigs#shield|shield rigs]] give a moderate percentage increase (both give a 10% increase at T1) | ||
| - | * Being hit by someone else's target painter will give a 25-30% increase to sig radius each, more for faction variants. These are subject to stacking penalties. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * [[eve:ships:frigates:assault_ships|Assault frigate]] role bonuses half the amount of sig bloom created by a microwarpdrive | ||
| - | * Halo implant sets give a percentage reduction to sig radius | ||
| - | * A [[training:fleet_booster:start|fleet booster]] running the evasive maneuvers warfare link will reduce the sig radius of fleet members | ||
| - | * A [[eve:ships:capitals:ragnarok|Ragnarok]] in a command slot gives fleet members under them a percentage reduction to sig radius. | ||
