So
after creating this new corporation of my, Tenebrous Effect, for those
of you that may be interested in joining in on the ground floor of a
scrub corp like this (or not), I decided to do a bit of hi-sec diving.
Odyssey has just recently been released after all and there would be
plenty of poor nubs eager to learn their first lessons in w-space.
It
didn't take long to find an incoming K162 from a class 2 wormhole. I
jumped in and saw that someone was already scanning. In the process of
creating a safespot I noticed a lone Caracal on dscan toward the outer
planet. Naturally, I abandoned the prudent course of action in favor of a
more aggressive tactic.
The
Caracal was sitting about 100 kilometers off of the customs office and
with his probes still out I figured there was little chance of him
keeping an eye on the directional scanner so I decloaked and engaged.
First kill of the evening: http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=18135021
Once
dispatched I sent him the obligatory "gf" and went on about my
business: setting up a safe and observation point near the local POS. It
looked like they ran sites fairly regularly and I wouldn't turn down an
easy kill.
It
didn't take long for the next new explorer to roll in from hi-sec. He
was sporting a brand new Caldari faction Heron and like his predecessor
figured that no one would see him at the outer planet even if he was
uncloaked.
I found this poor soul chilling out at a site near the outer planet. A bump gave me all the time I needed.
Second kill:
I
was somewhat disappointed with the loot drops so far, but to be honest I
wasn't expecting all that much. These were simple nubs after all. But
still, how is it that everyone else always finds those morons who carry
PLEX?
I
had left both of these wrecks untouched. I'm still not sure if that's
such a great move or not. It does act as a bit of bait, but I'm thinking
it might give away more information than it's worth. In hindsight, now
that I think about it, leaving the wrecks was probably a stupid move.
People can look up the kill on killboards and figure out what I'm
flying.
Yep. Definitely stupid.
After
this I went back to observing the locals. There was one or two logged
in, but as far as I could tell they were perma-afk. I kept an eagle on
them though. You never know when someone's going to do something
incredibly stupid.
After
a few more minutes of watching the locals though there was another
newcomer from hi-sec. A Moa this time. That was good. I was getting
tired of blowing up pitiably defenseless frigates.
Amazingly
I found the Moa at the outer planet. Whether he was attracted there by
the wrecks or by ignorance of the threats lurking in Anoikis I can't
say. Yet there he was at that same site I'd made my last kill.
I
have to give him credit though. He was aligned, but nothing that a
simple bump couldn't take care of. Once engaged this guy quickly turned
to the offense and opened up, but he just didn't have the firepower to
break through my Proteus's elite shield buffer? What?
Third and fourth kills from that chap:
