Tech 2 Ships
Another extortion tactic is to blow up
their jet cans of secure cans that hold their ore. You thought ore thieves were bad stealing a good chunk of your ore, try having someone blow up you can with all your ore in it. Not only is that counter productive, but the person is already in a combat ship, so you have no chance to retaliate. This works by targeting the can, then private messaging the person, and making your demands. Just a million ISK is enough, to start, if the person agrees unlock the can, and watch their can for them to be nice. If they don’t agree, fire 1 shot, and increase your price, they will likely pay it. Repeat until the person pays, or the can is destroyed.
With the release of RMR, almost all ships
have an improved Tech 2 variant, so I am going to elaborate on them, in general terms and how they apply to Caldari, and what they are best used for.
Tech 2 Battle cruisers are command
ships, and are designed as such. They have increased shields, armour, hull, cap and resistances. They are tanks in every sense of the word, but lack much in firepower improvements. They have field command types, and fleet command types. Field command ships are designed to get in to the battle and provide some firepower along with support, micromanaging the battle. They are more heavily armoured and stronger, but can only use 1 gang warfare module. Fleet command ships are designed to stay back and macro manage the situation. They are not as heavily armoured, or pack as much firepower, but can use 3 gang warfare modules to provide extra support where needed.
Remember this very important fact;
pirates also have a reputation to keep, and honour and standards to maintain. If you make a deal with a player, keep it, don’t kill the person after they pay you, there are other pirates with more experience than you that will hunt you down for tarnishing the reputation of pirates everywhere.
Tech 2 Frigates are available as covert
ops, interceptors, and assault ships. Covert ops come in 3 types; recon, attack, and stealth bomber. Recon ships are designed to penetrate undetected to a hostile area and gather information about that area.
