Wartime Operations in EVE University: Difference between revisions

Line 43:

The best thing you can do as a newer player (or even a veteran who is not PvP oriented) is to leave behind the idea that some portions of space should be (100%) safe. The various security definitions of Empire Space are not meant to refer to safety, but rather the risk and challenge a potential aggressor may face. Declaring war is a valid mechanic to mitigate those risks and challenges.

Another myth is that our losses fund and even perpetually fund any given war or series of wars ongoing against the Uni. Aggressors earn their ISK just like everyone else.

Again, highsec isn't safe. It just has more challenges for an attacker to deal with, and one of the ways a corp or alliance can do this is by declaring war. In highsec you can be attacked by anyone at any time regardless.

Another myth is that our losses fund and even perpetually fund any given war or series of wars ongoing against the Uni. These losses do add to the aggressors' wallets, but this isn't necessarily the way they solely pay for their wardec. Aggressors earn their ISK just like everyone else, and some may be mercenary organizations hired to wage war against Ivy.
