The beautiful part of this is when you scroll down to see what he was carrying in his Ship Hangar and Cargo Bays. This gorgeous killmail is from only a week ago.
While all us ground-pounders grind Public Contracts for ISK, the Capsuleers continue to horribly fit incredibly expensive ships and then lose them to Black Ops fleets.

I mean, that is literally the worst fit I have ever seen on a super-capital ship. Ever.
To try and put this further in perspective, a 500MN MicroWarpdrive is designed to accelerate a ship in the mass range of a Battleship. That Super-Carrier is 4 times the size of a Battleship. That MWD would give him barely enough acceleration to be noticeable.

Was that literally everything he owned packed onto one ship?
Surely he now can't do anything but grind for, months, years?
No idea how much ISK that actually is in terms of what EVE players have and what they earn.
A friend of mine is sitting on a combined worth across all his accounts of several tens of trillions of ISK.
If you've got the time and determination, you can grind up enough to buy a whole solar system. I mean, if that were possible.
Most of us use PvE or Industry to make a few hundred million a week at least.

Only Titans on Singularity.

And that is why you shouldn't talk about things you know nothing about.
Wow, you wanna back off the superior tone a little there? That's not exactly a mainline tactic. I've flown support for capitals before during the 2 years I flew with the CFC and not seen that particular tactic used.
If you want to inform people, more power to you, but taking that kind of tone just makes you look like an *******.

Yes prop mods on caps and supers is a mainline tactic. It has been for years. Literally years. I was talking down to you because I thought you were a newbro spouting garbage. That you flew with the biggest alliance for that long and didn't learn anything about caps is hilarious. Did you never wonder how those supers and caps were getting into warp in less than 25 seconds when the base time to warp is in the 90s range? If you had asked around in corp, I am an *******. I don't care if I look that way.
I've always seen people use webs for that. I've never been around capitals that weren't being used along with one of our Alpha Fleets of Maelstroms and Scorpions with supporting Hurricanes.

Except you can't web supers.
Yeah, that's true. I've only really operated with Carriers.
How effective is the MWD if your enemy knows what you're doing? Does it rely entirely on the enemy fleet not properly following target calls?

Does it rely entirely on the enemy fleet not properly following target calls? An MWD will get a super into warp in 2 cycles(20 seconds) If the super pilot has a nomad set, that drops to a single cycle(might need a single i-stab, not 100% on that one). Plus its a super, so it can't be scrammed. I haven't flown a titan, but I would imagine a driveby involves, landing, locking, propmod align, DD, warp to safe. I can't say how effective it is for getting out of getting caught, as that hasn't happened yet, but for general movement, it is a massive time saver. Truthfully, it isn't for use in combat, but for travel, and the avoidance of being caught. In an actual super fight, you would rather have either an extra utility mod(Armor) or more tank(Shield). In the post jump fatigue world, supers do actually take gates now, and knocking a half minute off of each align time will keep your subcaps from losing their minds.
I forgot to check if it was your post or someone else's, but I was referring to the post stating usig boosted sig radius to ensure the Super gets picked onto first and thus picks up more damage instead of your smaller ships.
