Wish I had found you before I got my thanny. Have learned most of these tricks over time but could have saved me some lost fighters lol. See you in fleets as we are in the same alliance :)
Yep cant wait to get my carriers rocking again, been away a few years just getting back. I haven't yet finished vid but you didnt have auto lock mod running ;)
This is not 220m ISK/hour, not even close. Landed on grid/locking up rats @5:00 minutes, killed final ship at 18:00 minutes. That's 13m/site @ a site value of apromately 25 million. At 4.61 sites per hour you're looking at 115m/hour, not 220. No one is hitting 220m/hour in a carrier, years ago when I was doing it in a max skilled/blinged Nidhogger I was averaging 160m/hour, that's where carrier top out. A good super carrier pilot can hit 300m/hour. Also folks, you do not need 3 accounts to do this, you can easily just use one if your alliance has a good umbrella.
Few questions: 1. Can you launch fighters fefore they finished "refuiling"? 2. What is the benefit of carrier ratting compared to marauder ratting? I want to try carrier ratting, but as far as i know, isk/h is the +- same with marauder. So i find it hard to motivate myself to undock this expensive beast. I guess you are safer in a way, right?
As far as i know, no the launch all button is greyed out, if one wing is done before the others you can launch that. I think it is more fun and takes more work in a carrier compared to say Ishtar drones that keeps on going, fighters stop after they killed something, and they die quite easily if you forget to send to on the next target or orbit something. Some marauders are almost as expensive as a carrier these days and not sure on safer, carriers are a juicy target being a capital, and fair bit slower, but then you can jump out if you have a cyno in another system. I have a Golem and 2 carriers myself and not used them much if at all, Myrmidon is fine for now :)
Good questions. 1. You cannot relaunch a fighter squadron until it is done refueling. 2. Anecdotally speaking, I earn about 20-30% more ISK/hr carrier ratting than if I used my Vargur. And if you are pre aligned like I show in my video then carrier ratting is much safer because you can simply instawarp out and then tether, dock, or cyno out
Carriers don’t get locked on grid and can’t be trapped in system by gate camps. But they are easy to scan down. Lately in Delve, marauders have been getting dropped more than carriers so maybe carrier ratting will make a comeback.
a lot to manage and not worth the risk and hussle. this guy says he have 4 accounts running just to do ratting with this thanatos. what i would recommend instead are just getting all accounts into a praxis each, send them to each combat site, and make significant more isk for practically no risk. he could been making like 400 mill an hour in 4x 400 mill ships, and it takes a alot to loose them all same time
Depends on what ship you are flying and how they are fit. Frigates are fairly safe from a carrier as long as you keep out of smart bomb and neut range.
You’re killing rats twice as fast as an Ishtar but you’re using 3 accounts, need more time to pick up loot and risk billions. Why not just multibox Ishtars at fraction of the risk?
Why would you be so close to the site? You could be hundreds of Kms away from it and still be able to use fighers..... this seems a quick way to get dunked
You now need 3 accounts today where 4 years ago you could get away with almost one account to do the same thing. All this because some crybaby complained that his frigate got dropped on by a super. You know null sec people using the ships they took the time to build.
Just finding your channel but really enjoying myself so far, i appreciate the informative explanations of everything.
bring back carrier ratting
yes please

This is very different from the day of launching 10+ fighters from my Chim and just watching everything melt....
I really like the micro management of the fighters. :D
I have set toggle between fighters/carrier to num 0 and num 1 is select all fighters, works quite well for me at least.
Make Carriers Great Again!
Man I’d really love to go back to null with my paladin

With Salvage and loot its totaly possible to hit 220m+ /hr
he mentioned in the previous video that the 220m isk/hr figure is including salvage and looted modules.
Yes, do tell everyone they need less accounts and scouting or self-sufficiency 😏 makes my life as a hunter much easier ;)
You dont need to recall a fighter just from taking a shot. If you keep them moving they will not die to a haven

@@BerraLJ ishtar alt 1 jump out for intel and afk isk, have your carrier be the active isk. making dank ticks on both accounts.

GJ
carriers take a lot of work to manage when ratting.
I think the difficulty it's good bc keeps your attention up, sometimes I fall sleep with other activities lol

@goldeneagle256 but then your not flying carrier
@@Darth0308 well, if you dont care about risk or reward, and just wanna fly a carrier for the sake of flying a carrier, then go nuts
Greetings, what is the survival chance if you meet carrier?

Dude, are you a sociopath? Camerak shake? For real?
must be pretty uncomfortable to be ratting with a capital in Fountain where something is dying every 5 minutes or less, pretty hot region.
i wish i had the sense of security this dude has to be able to fly around that much isk.

my god this is boring.
Actually I go yo bed right after vid
