Has it solely been per week since the transfer from Delve to Tenerifis and different factors east was introduced and kicked off? How are we not there already? It’s not like we’re transferring all the things we personal… wait… that’s precisely what we’re doing.
From Delve to the east
Anyway, I’ve spent per week fretting and attempting to prepare, however my impatience to be executed is already exhibiting. Stuff is happening… it simply hasn’t made its approach all the way down to me but.
Motion in Delve and Past
The obvious factor is that Delve has been very lively. The MER for October will seemingly present a noticeable enhance in losses as PanFam,Fraternity, and others have put in effort to seize the careless transferring their stuff across the area… or worse, these attempting to YOLO all the way in which to UALX-3 on their very own. Sizzling spots on the path are usually across the regional gate between 49-U6U in Querious and 4-07MU in Catch. There’s a ping virtually each day detailing the place anyone determined to gate their capital between these two methods and bought caught by hostiles.
And there’s a ping virtually every single day the place anyone accepts a fleet invite from Sven Bauer or anyone like them, is warped off tether through fleet warp, and ganked in some far nook of the system. It has been one thing of a blood tub at occasions.
Additionally, all bounce beacons have been turned off as a result of we’re so dangerous we will’t cease leaping to them although they’re all named “loss mail generator” and the bads camp them and look ahead to us to leap to them.
On the flip facet of that, if you’d like some straightforward to achieve fight, house protection fleets have been popping up typically to drive the rascals out of our house.
Harpies undock for Residence Protection
(Additionally, as an apart, that crimson patch on the entrance of that Harpy SKIN may very simply be was a shark’s mouth… the CCP artwork group ought to get on that.)
I bought into a couple of fleets in a single afternoon and bought in on a few kills on every. It may be irritating at occasions as a result of the bads are there to gank and to not combat, so you need to catch as much as them and pin them down… however that’s the reason now we have interdiction bubbles in null sec. The fitting bubble means a sudden toe to toe brawl.
Typically, when vital issues are happening, we chase the bads into the NPC stations in Delve then bubble them in till some bounce freighters or different ops have made it to their vacation spot.

There may be only a lot happening in Delve proper now.
Progress so Far
Within the “make myself really feel a little bit bit higher” column, I’ve achieved a couple of issues.
I’ve managed to get all my stuff in Delve consolidated within the Keepstar in 1DQ1-A. Go me.
I repackages a bunch of ships, repackaged the modules, and set 4 transport contracts to get them despatched both to Jita… for ships now not in doctrine… or UALX-3.
In any other case, as of this writing I’ve precisely three ships thus far in our new stager… and two have been moved there in a fleet op on the primary day of the announcement. The third is an Astero that I flew in on an alt whereas trying to find Crimson Harvest websites. He bought within the neighborhood and I figured why not simply stick with it.
Market Crash
As a result of we’re leaving a variety of issues have was a fireplace sale. I’ve pulled my newest batch of PI off the market and haven’t bothered to restart any of my PI farms. Costs on cumbersome commodities like which have all taken an enormous dip and are unlikely to get higher any time quickly. Everyone is eager to clear their inventory and the consumers understand it. Promote orders are chasing purchase orders down and down.
I nonetheless need to exit and acquire the final bits of PI sitting on my planets, then shut all these down. I’m not going to maintain PI getting into Delve if we’re dwelling in Tenerifis.
However my revenue for the month goes to be fairly minimal. The PI was sustaining my modest life-style and now that will probably be disrupted for fairly a stretch.
Avoidance
I wandered into Amarr excessive sec whereas doing a number of the Crimson Harvest websites… extra on that in one other publish… and ended up going via all of the crap I’ve within the Area area and placing it up available on the market at hearth sale costs to simply get that off of my belongings checklist.
Received’t anyone purchase my Vivid Hemorphite
So that’s off my checklist of issues I used to be by no means going to do however all of a sudden discovered inspiration for. This was all a part of me studying that region-wide purchase orders are a nasty thought. The sunshine missiles for five ISK every all went fairly quick… I believe I had 1 ISK purchase orders in mission hubs again within the day… which makes me marvel how costly mild missiles are lately. 5 ISK used to really feel a bit grasping. I don’t know.
Frustrations
The most important downside for me is that I’m break up between not realizing how I’m going to maneuver the stuff I’ve and being impatient to get going. I simply need to begin getting stuff to the brand new place, however all of the transfer ops this previous week have been centered on getting issues to 1DQ.
Properly, all of the transfer ops for line members, anyway. I’ve been out to cowl dozens of bounce freighters touchdown in UALX.
Freight touchdown at our new staging
And I do know there’s an order to issues. GSOL and different teams need to get there first and get issues prepared. However I have a look at all of the ships I’ve sitting round which can be a bit too useful simply to trash or reprocess… and I get a bit overwhelmed.
Whoever put this view into the UI clearly needed to make me anxious
Going via these hulls assembles a historical past of my time in Delve… in my mind at the very least. There are left over ECM burst interceptors (as soon as wonderful for padding ones kill board and used closely within the early levels of World Struggle Bee), a Stratios from that point we cloaky camped CO2 in Impass, the Prospect from once I thought I’ve the time/persistence for gasoline harvesting (I’ve neither and by no means discovered a single gasoline website), the Sin from the primary iteration of Silly Fool Fleet, a Scythe Fleet Subject that was undocked precisely as soon as to attempt to go rob house banks with Asher again when that was first a factor. Oh, and the boosting Damnation I flew at the primary battle of M2-XFE.
My Damnation within the orange of one other explosion at M2-XFE
To hell with Marie Kondo, this all manages to deliver my pleasure and nervousness on the identical time! I’ve this identical downside when I attempt to filter out my bookshelf or closet. I develop into hung up within the historical past of the issues there fairly than any present or future utility or worth.
Additionally, I clearly don’t lose sufficient ships.
As famous above I concluded fairly rapidly that I used to be going to want to simply repackage a bunch of this ships and simply purchase new rigs on the far finish, so I began attempting to make use of our transport providers… nevertheless they’re slammed with requests in order that three out of the 4 contracts appear like they may expire unfulfilled. You place in a 7 day timer for the service to select up your contract and one expired already and two extra are a couple of hours from it. Too many individuals attempting to ship stuff.
I can at all times attempt once more. The stuff isn’t going anyplace. It was prompt that we not ship stuff to Jita as a result of too many people are going that. However I don’t want a half dozen Megathron hulls in UALX. That doctrine isn’t coming again any time quickly.
In fact, a number of the nervousness about that is constructed upon my early experiences with null sec transfer ops, the place I rapidly realized I wanted to be within the first transfer op or I used to be alone. The coalition is so much higher about that now, however whilst lately because the final GEF deployment, once I was away for per week I got here again to search out myself having to YOLO some ships again from hostile house as I had missed one stage of the transfer op.
Which means each time I miss a transfer op, I begin questioning if that would be the final. I moved my two Delve capitals ahead, accrued a bunch of bounce fatigue, then noticed a ping to maneuver costly pods to the brand new staging and needed to cross as a result of my timers would have both held all people up or discovered me left behind. Will there be one other such op? I don’t know.
I’ve two capitals moved from Delve to Querious and ready to gate into catch to hold on, and one capital sitting in Catch, solely now there’s an incursion in the midst of the route which shuts down all cyno visitors… I can’t even get on the path of tears. It has been delayed till that has been taken care of.
So it goes. It’s exhausting to take a seat on my fingers and wait.
