PvPers and EC farmers

My 2nd day in N'Vak, what is supposed to be the PvP warzone of the more PvP oriented faction, right?

[Tell] G'dnarw@klausherbert: what? we are kdf and we do coop here, we scan 8x and than we switch, so everyone can earn 10-20mil ec per hour, you are only a stupid child

And this was actually more polite than the guy yesterday. In the other space MMO I play farmers in a warzone get hunted down mercilessly. How come STO PvPers allow this outrage to continue? :confused:

    Places like N'Vak and Ker'rat are PvPvE zones, so if a farmer is stupid enough to turn up it is completely acceptable to shoot them on sight.

    Oh, and come to Ker'rat in Eta Eridani, it has far more Feds.

    Having said that if there is a rat infestation in Nvak with Dbag traders... perhaps its time for an invasion. Never apologize for spawning a farmer.

    Here are some fun tips for dealing with the rats in Nvak. (kerrat you get jumped more by multiple feds. still fun tips anyway)

    Don't kill them... they just slip you and go about PvE. Instead of killing them do one of the following things;
    1) Run an Enhanced battle cloak ship... and follow them with a gravity well and Harpang torp. Don't kill just make sure they always have a dot on and can't scan nothing. (bouns points for loading an Aceton and dropping them at scanning nodes)
    2) Take the most tank heavy ship you can and equip a tractor beam... then follow them with out shooting... just keep tractoring them over and over and over.
    3) follow them with a fireworks device while your cloaked in any ship... only declock when they start to scan... plink until you can recloak or... make sure you have that tractor beam handy.

    If they want to farm, let them!

    However, no one say we can't shoot at them.

    Or blow them up.

    Long past time N'Vak was cleared out. Farming is one of the reasons the Exchange prices are so ridiculous and the EC economy is out of whack.

    Besides, whoever heard of a Klingon who wanted to be a farmer? :rolleyes:

    So PvE gets 50 to 100 times the content and attention over PvP and people are using the zone to farm???????

    Oh I've neglected N'Vak for far too long. Time to pay a visit and take no prisoners!

    Anytime someone say something simply respond, "This is a PvP zone! If you're incapable of shooting back perhaps you shouldn't farm in the middle of a War Zone!"

    The image just came to mind of a bunch of farmers working in the middle of a crossfire between armies, complete with artillery explosions, bomb blasts and tracer bullets.

    And one yelling, "STOP THAT! CAN'T YOU SEE WE'RE BUSY FARMING HERE??!!"

    This reminds me of this conversation in OPVP.

    I dont enjoy killing farmers, ruins their fun and its boring for me. But if they are dumb enough to farm into a warzone then they are clearly in need of a life lesson.

    When I farm N'Vak, I tend to go prepared because there is also some idiot PvPer who wants attention--especially KDF Rommies. If you mess with me while I farm, I might come after you, or I might just leave. It all depends how quickly the hull drops. If it takes longer than 2 minutes, I am out. So if you PvPers are looking for action, go to Ker'rat.

    By the way, some people do use N'Valk to test out their ship builds against the Borg in addition to farming.

    If you want to PvP at N'Vak, ask and fight away from the farm. It's the honorable thing to do. ;)

    before the roms came, the kdf were just a different breed of players. we didn't fight one another much. we preferred to punish the feds, which is why n'vak was\is always empty.

    the few that went there at that time, had an unspoken policy not to shoot a fellow kdf, and that the zone was for farming. not many people even knew of the zone then. further adding to it's emptiness. lol [adding\empty... oh well]

    anyway, it's a new era. a new breed has arisen. the ques are mixed. feds have no quams playing a kdf aligned toon now, as long as it's rom. lol plus i think the new content may have brought in a few as well. more people have learned of n'vak.

    i guess what i'm trying to say is 'get over it farmers. i'ts a pvp\pve zone just like kerrat and people gotta get their kill kdf dailies. [that is still a daily isn't it?]

    you're KDF!!! die with honour!!

    post script; i've never had a problem killing farmers in n'vak, as most are fed alts just trying to farm without the gank in kerrat :D
    Don't know why it says i'm an ARC user. i will never use that TRIBBLE Cryptic!

    There's nothing wrong with farming in PvPvE zones, I seldom do it in Ker'rat. You need to be ready to a possible fight :)

    If your a Fed, hang out just outside of Ker'rat, sometimes a KDF player going in there will pay you 5 to 10 mil to come into Ker'rat with no shields, and stay for 1/2 to an hour as fodder for them to shoot at.

    Who cares about the effect on the economy? Kill farmers because it's a PvP zone, and because it's fun.

    Cheers.
