And now my buddy lost his megathron to a lvl4 mission because he never pays attention. I give him good setups and links to the mission reports, but he doesn't even look. Then he bitches about it. I swear........

Yeah I am hovering around the 16 million Skill point mark, way to addicting game. Once you hit a certain mark in skill points the game becomes so much more fun. ISK no longer becomes as much of an issue.
What is wonderful is in a Falcon if you fill your mids with ECM you can pretty much expect a perma jam. But on the other side of things if you fill your mids with ECCM you can still be jammed. That seems flawed to me, if you spend the slots you should be able to make your self pretty much impossible to jam. You are already giving up alot for defense there should be more reward for it.
Yeah lvl 3s are much more efficient in a Battlecrusier. Very much worth the investment in skill points.

ugh, just lost the Rupture @ lunch to a guy my corp's at war with. He did 15k damage to me, he was flying a Jaguar....kept me @ 1km where i couldnt hit him. When he strayed out to 2500m+ i owned him (put his shields down in under 30 secs), but he didn't make that mistake more than once
Damn it. Killboards says I lost 18 mil isk overall. ugh. I hope my corp mates can collect some of the equipment.
Thanks for the input, i'll look at these when I refit tonight !!
Oh and J I fight everyone, that's why I fit so generally, I never know who i'm going to be destroying next. Seems to be more Guristas, drones and angel cartel lately

Hmm...I bet you that guy was armor tanked and you getting his shields down so fast really meant nothing. Most tech 2 assault frigates can easily pop tech 1 cruisers and frigates.

I see your point but you aren't necessarily giving up all of your defense by fitting ECCM on some ships. There are ECCM modules for mid slots and for low slots. So its possible to lose some offense or defense in exchange for ECCM. There are other counters to ECM than ECCM though. You can use remote ECCM and have one or two members dedicated to ECCM, you can bring your own ECM, you can have interceptors go after the falcon as well. Yes falcons can be a major pain in the ass, which is part of the reason I fly one . The other part of the reason is that I was starting to run out of ships to train. Still have skills to train but at 40.6 million skillpoints I've trained most races T2 ships & weapons at this point .

That's typically the rule of thumb. For a while the AFs weren't as good as they are now but they've definitely made a recovery since the Quantum Rise patch.

Hey, regarding construction of ships, equipment, rigs, etc...should I really look at creating an alt to do that, since my current character is spec ops, almost no industry skills whatsoever...? I barely have the skills to use tech 2 mining lasers.
And is it true you can't skill up multiple characters on an account at the same time?

Yes.
Up to you if you want to branch out, or buy a second account to skill up an industry character.

Ahh well. I "reactivated" for the free 5-days... went so far as to installing the Steam client which refused to work. I downloaded the regular client, but never got around to installing it. Oh well, Warhammer is more better funner anyway.
