Bot down!!

Wow what a far cry from lineage, I saw a bot I decided to kill it I would be sent to hell. In lineage every death was painful. It took hours to grind and grind to level up.

In eve....we write the script. Especially in null security space.

So yogita and I are ratting trying to clear a haven real quick then we were going to chill and watch some tv. While we are ratting what do we see? A navy vexor warps to our anom. This player had been harassing other players in the same system. Basically he warps in even though the other player has engaged the npc ships and is in the process of killing them. Basically the anom is theirs. It is a rule null alliances live by when trying to make some isk.

So the Vexor warps in and well Yogita and I go to town on it. I was in my vargur armed with a battery of 4 1400mm arty cannons (with the vargurs bonus that goes up to 8 guns). I figured I could one shot him. You see botters when they grind for isk, we call it ratting in eve, they ignore other players. Well that is one thing they do. That guy we killed basically broke rules and did not communicate at all...basically like  a robot. We tried private convos to no avail. SO I figured I would try to kill him with my vargur. The problem was we didn't have ewar with us, so no webs (to slow him down so that my guns could track him more easily), or a warp scrambler to keep him from warping away. The basic ratting ishtar set up allows for it to use oversized propulsion modules. Basically a battleship sized afterburner. He was traveling to fast for my large guns to track, and even Yogita's heavy missiles where having little effect. Speed effects missile damage as well.

Well It was time for my carrier. I developed a simple fit that would not only allow drones to race to their target, but have the tracking to hit it hard and take it out. I designed the fit to counter fast moving interceptors. I had to apply the same fit but this time to heavy drones.

The result?

Bot down!!!

Thanks for mods...next time don't bot in system with a large number of vigilant players!!!
