Capping Teladi Albatross EASY FAST AND WITHOUT REPERCUSSION

Post by dragosstudio2007 » Fri, 4. Mar 11, 13:44

If you need a transport ship like Albatross the easy way is to go to Grand Exchange and look for (civilian ship) Arena, Casino or Hospital Ship.

Why it is easy ? because in this sector is guaranty that you will find at least one of this ships and because they have no defense system, so your marines will not be shot down in the air.

I uploaded a video with the capturing of Teladi Arena:

Enjoy !

PS. I continue to fire at the ship because it was among my firsts capping and I thought that the shield must stay below 2% - 3% for the entire capping period.

With that sort of ship, I don't even bother to fire on them. I just keep
the shields down with the old "friendly nudge"

I guess that you lost some Teladi goodwill though. There is always a price to pay, however small or easily recovered.

Next time, I'd recommend boarding one without HPD.

Fah, HPD's are culling devices. Any marine that can't get through one minor obstacle gets blasted out of space.

Nice going...

10pt. for performance&video

-1pt. for target (no challenge at all)

-2pt. for style (you damaged the hull!)

overall rating 7pt. out of 10pt. ;-)

Next time use PBE for the last remnants of shielding. Makes a better profit@shipyard. Good luck.

Why did you keep firing (and damaging the hull) to the very end? Once the marines are inside the ship you can fly away and wait. Do you keep shields low to the very end of all boarding operations? It means that you are also taking fire from the target ship when it's not necessarily.
