Eve Online: Apocalypse Sniper takedown by my Hyperion

Eve Online: Apocalypse Sniper takedown by my hyperion

The Apocalypse, an Amarr Battleship

I caught myself a sniper.

As you can see as i warp in he attempts to line up and warp out but its to late
I've already got him warp disrupted, and webbed.

As he's setup for sniping he lacks a tank and his ship begins to melt.
He realizes this and he actually abandons ship.
Moments before the Apoc pops

What does that graphical effect stand for that apoca was emitting?

[rfry]

The expanding circles = Sensor booster ... A sensor booster raises how far you are able to target someone.

[nero91]

nobb question: what kind of difference does it make if you abandon your ship before it pops?

never understood that..

[rfry]

If you know your ship is going to die, u do not have to sit there and watch it happen... instead you can spend that time heading over to get your replacement ship.

This is why you align to warp.

-.-

Nice to see people uploading gameplay videos without their music over everything for once kudos!

[imiptat]

should have stole it

[galey94]

if i was this guy in the apaocalypes then 1st i would align to warp out as soon as i can and how did the hyperion get to the apocolypse so fast, but second i would be pointing my guns at the hyperion and also i would have 3 heavy drones on the hyperion awel, is this guy 30 days old seriously,

btw i would say nice kill but i could have took that thing out in a frigate because looking at that he didn't tank at all but i'm assuming you used blaster though to kill him in 5 hits

@nero91 also if you bail out at an unexpected momnet your foe wont be ready to gank your pod.

[rostyloco1]

he clearly was not using active thermal and kinetic tanking

@rfry Does that nullify insurance?

@ZivWar You do it like a fool. The real way to piss them off is to hop into a scorpion set specifically to jam them then nos/neut them and web them so that they just can't do anything. Then just hold them there for as long as you like. You don't lose a ship, they don't get a kill, And you annoy the fuck out of them for a much longer period of time.

[ZivWar]

@kurisu925 Oh I see. Well I'm not part of a corporation. So I'm afforded some luxury of pissing them off :D So I do it with gusto and as much of a cavalier attitude as possible.

[kurisu925]

@ZivWar I am not over estimating anything. Even if they only extend their war dec by one more week that is another week of having to be on the look out in highsec. They are an inconvenient thing to have around. Popping your own ships to piss them off is really a step backwards. You are still losing a ship and it will not bring an end to your war any faster. The idea is to survive the war with as little financial loss as possible. Besides it pisses them off more if you kill them.

[ZivWar]

@kurisu925 You're over estimating them. They aren't people to be afraid of. What are they going to do? Wait around for the next year or so of their lives just for the one chance to destroy your pixel ship? In which case, you just self destruct and do it all over again. :) Can't lose, except your ship of course. I myself relish any chance to piss off pirates/griefers and make them look even more pathetic.
