Patch notes For EVE Online: Rubicon 1.0

Released on Tuesday, November 19th 2013

Patch Size: 1.21GB (Approximately)

Features

Mobile Structures

Four new types of personal deployable structures have been developed - Mobile Depot, Mobile Tractor Unit, Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor and Mobile Siphon Unit. See //community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/better-living-through-mobile-structures/ for more details.

The maximum penalty for attacking a Mobile Structure in any area of space is a Crimewatch suspect flag.

All Mobile Structures appear on directional scans and can be found using combat scanner probes.

Siphon Unit Blueprints for a new mobile structure called the Small Mobile Siphon Unit can now be purchased from any of the four main Empire faction markets at a price of 100,000,000 ISK. Small Mobile Siphon Units can only be deployed outside starbases (POSes). Once deployed, it cannot be scooped up again. The name of the player that deployed a Small Mobile Siphon Unit is visible in the Show Info for the structure. Small Mobile Siphon Units will decay in 30 days. The Small Mobile Siphon Unit has Effective Hit Points of 80.000 . POS guns do not automatically shoot at the Siphon Unit. The Small Mobile Siphon Unit can steal raw material (moongoo) from active Moon Harvester Arrays and simple reactions from active Simple Reactor Arrays. It cannot steal alchemy output. Siphon Units steal 60 units of raw materials or 30 units of processed material. Siphon Units can only steal from the end of a production chain and the Small Mobile Siphon Unit prioritizes raw material over processed material. The unit steals at the same time the starbase produces, so once per hour. 10% of what is stolen is wasted, i.e. destroyed. The rest is stored in the Small Mobile Siphon Unit. It can store 900m³. If it is full, it stops stealing. Anybody can access the storage of the Siphon Unit and remove materials.

Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor Blueprints for a new mobile structure called the Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor can now be purchased from various stations, mostly in 0.0 at a price of 150,000,000 ISK.

The Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor cannot be deployed within 200km of another Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor. The Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor cannot be deployed within 75km of a station or a stargate. The Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor cannot be deployed within 40km of a control tower.

Mobile Tractor Unit Blueprints for a new mobile structure called the Mobile Tractor Unit can now be purchased from any of the four main Empire faction markets at a price of 30,000,000 ISK. An active Mobile Tractor Unit can be retrieved by the owner after having been deployed. The Mobile Tractor Unit has a 10 second activation time after launching. The name of the player that deployed a Mobile Tractor Unit is visible in the Show Info for the structure. Mobile Tractor Unit will decay in 2 days after launching. Mobile Tractor Unit has Effective Hit Points of 50,000 (10,000 Shield, 10,000 Armor, and 30,000 Structure). The Mobile Tractor Unit will tractor beam friendly and neutral wrecks and cargo containers from up to 125km away The Tractor Beam has a 5 sec cycle time. The Mobile Tractor Unit has a 27,000m3 cargo capacity. The Mobile Tractor Unit tractors one wreck at a time. The Mobile Tractor Unit cannot be deployed within 5,000m of another Mobile Tractor Unit. The Mobile Tractor Unit cannot be deployed within 50km of a station or a stargate. The Mobile Tractor Unit cannot be deployed within 40km of a control tower.

The Mobile Depot will exit reinforcement with 0% shields. The Mobile Depot has a 3,000m3 cargo capacity. The Mobile Depot has a 2500m access range. The Mobile Depot cannot be deployed within 6,000m of another The Mobile Depot. The Mobile Depot cannot be deployed within 50km of a station or a stargate. The Mobile Depot cannot be deployed within 40km of a control tower.



Ghost Sites

New Anomalies called ‘Ghost Sites’ added to High Sec, Low Sec, Null Sec and WH space – one for every pirate faction in each area. See this blog for more information

Each Ghost Site will feature 4 hacking containers that can be accessed with relic or data analyzers

Ghost Site hacking containers will only have 1 chance at success or failure

If you fail in hacking a Ghost Site container, it will detonate, causing Explosive damage to anyone nearby

Ghost Sites feature invisible timers. If the timer expires while you are still in the Ghost Site, the remaining hacking containers will detonate, causing area-of-effect Explosive damage. Waves of NPCs will spawn shortly after

New NPCs added for Ghost Sites – 4 cruisers for each pirate faction

Ghost Site loot tables added including BPCs for new Ascendancy Implant sets

High-Sec Player Owned Customs Offices

All Concord operated Customs Offices in Hi-Sec are now controlled by InterBus. Interbus stations have a tax rate of 17%.

InterBus Customs Offices can be attacked by anyone.

Players can build a Customs Office orbiting a planet that has no Customs Office. This is true for all security bands, but existing planet restrictions for Custom Offices (like those in Jita) will remain.

Player Owned Customs Offices in Hi-Sec will have an NPC tax rate of 10% for export, 5% for import.

New Skill: Customs Code Expertise reduces the NPC tax rate by 10% per level.

The tax base value for Planetary commodities are being reduced by between 11% and 20%, based on tier.

Attacking POCOs in Hi-Sec will bring Concord response, unless the attacking player is in a corporation that is at war with the owner of the POCO.

New Certificate and Mastery Systems

The Certificate System has been completely overhauled to be more intuitive to use. For more information, please refer to this Dev Blog for more details on the changes. Each Certificate now has 5 progression levels and do not have nested requirements from other Certificates. Certificate icons have been revamped; it is now easier to notice they are different based on the 5 progression levels mentioned above. Certificates have been removed from their specific tab in the Character Sheet window and are now available in the Skill tab. There, Certificates are sorted by the same categories used to filter various skill groups. Right-clicking an Individual Certificate will open more information about it, including its description, the various progression levels and the various ships it is recommended for. The Certificate Planner has been removed. It is no longer necessary to manually claim Certificates when meeting requirements. Certificates can no longer set as public. The Certificate tutorial has been updated to match the changes, under EVE Help (F12), in the tutorial tab and by looking inside the “General” group Skills also have received new icons to match the Certificate changes.

Certificates are now coupled with the concept of “Mastery” when assigned to specific ship hulls. A particular ship Mastery level is the collection of all Certificates of the same level assigned to that hull. This can be viewed by looking at any ship show-info, then going into the “Mastery” tab. Each Mastery has 5 levels (each matching one of the 5 Certificate levels) A green checker indicates the Certificate requirements has been met, an orange circle means some of the requirements are trained but not met while a red cross means some skills are missing. Individual skills may be seen by clicking each Certificate group to expand or collapse it.

The ship requirement tab has been updated to match changes to the Mastery tab Primary, secondary, tertiary requirements and so have been removed to avoid unnecessary confusion. Instead, all mandatory skills to fly a particular ship are highlighted in green or red depending if skill requirements are met or not. The training timer should now be more accurate, and avoid counting nested skill requirements if the user can already fly the ship (like losing some prerequisites for some reason)

Ship show info header has been updated as well The ship show info header now displays the user current skill requirement and Mastery levels for quick reference. Clicking each of those icon will open their respective tabs and details, as mentioned above.



Interbus Ship Identification System

A visualization tool has been added to represent progression and clear identification of all the non-unique ships in-game. This ship tree, named the “Interbus Ship Identification System”, may be accessed by clicking the new button available in your NeoCom, by pressing ALT+& or by clicking the “Show in ISIS” button in the ship show-info. For more information, please refer to that Dev Blog

Ships are sorted by the various in-game factions they come from. They are the four main Empire (Amarr Empire, Caldari State, Gallente Federation, Minmatar Republic), plus the various pirate faction and miscellaneous groups like O.R.E., Sansha’s Nation, Blood Raider Covenant, Angel Cartel, Serpentis and Servant Sisters of EVE. The user may select the desired faction by clicking on one of the upper-left faction icons. Mouse hovering one of the icons will update the pop-up menu with relevant information to that particular faction. The icons in the pop-up window may be themselves hovered with the mouse for further details on their respective meaning. Clicking on each faction will open up the respective tree.

ISIS Ship groups Ship groups are sorted by size (smaller hulls are displayed on the left, larger hulls on the right) and by Tech level (Tech II and III hulls are located above the Tech I hulls they are based upon). Each ship group has an individual icon for quick recognition and lists all the relevant hulls in its midst (example: the Frigate group in the Amarr Empire faction lists the Executioner, Inquisitor, Tormentor, Punisher, Crucifier and Magnate) Groups that have been unlocked by meeting skill requirements are light up. To view exact skill requirements on unlocked groups, hover the mouse on the group icon. Hovering the ship group icon will indicate its role and display relevant skills. Hovering over the role icons will display more information about them. When the group has not been unlocked yet, this displayed skills will be high-level requirements needed to achieve it. When unlocked, the group will display Spaceship Command skills that give bonuses to the whole group.

ISIS ship types Hovering the mouse over each particular ship type displays the ship role and bonuses. As usual, hovering the role icons will display more information about them. Clicking the white text in the ship bonuses will open relevant item show-info (either skills or modules depending on the context). Left-clicking on each ship will open the show-info for that particular hull. Right-clicking will allow the user to view the ship in the market or contracts as well. Below each ship silhouette is the Mastery level icon, which indicates how well the user can fly the hull. It ranks from I to V, and details may be accessed through a left-click, then going into the “mastery” tab in the ship show-info. Ships that have been fully mastered (Mastery at V) will show as golden in the ISIS.

Synergy with the Compare tool The Compare Tool (available by clicking the “E” icon at the top of the NeoCom, then selecting “Compare Tool” in the drop-down list) can be used to quickly weight various ship attributes from the ISIS For this, simply drag and drop ship types from the ISIS into the compare tool window, then select specific attributes to be compared from the left scroll-down tab. Ships may also be dragged and dropped from the show info ship model or Market windows.



Ships

All ships have had their warp speeds rebalanced. Additionally, a ship's maximum warp speed affects how quickly it reaches that speed. (Ships with a higher warp speed will reach that speed in a shorter time). Previously all ships took the same time to accelerate up to their maximum warp speed. Deceleration rates have been similarly tweaked. See this blog for details.

The two new SoE hulls, the Astero and Stratious, may be obtained through the Sister of EVE (high, low and null-sec) or Sanctuary Corporations (null-sec only). For more information please refer to this Dev blog.

Modules

A new Bastion Module has been introduced to complement the new Marauder role. Its blueprint is available for 50m ISK in the Market, under the Blueprints > Ship Equipment > Turrets & Bays > Weapon Upgrades category. Module details are available below.

Bastion Module Increases shield and armor repair amount by 100%. Boosts all shields, armor and hull resistances by 30%. Extends all large turret falloff and optimal by 25% (is stacking penalized with other items boosting the same attributes). Increases all large missile max velocity by 25%. Has a cycle time of 60 seconds. When in bastion mode, Marauder is immune to EW but cannot be remote assisted in any way. When in bastion mode, Marauder speed is set to 0 m/s and cannot warp (mass is unchanged). Also receives a weapons timer that prevents station docking or gate jumping. Weapon time doesn't require the user to drop weapon safeties in high-security space. Only one may be fitted per Marauder, cannot be deactivated before cycle ends. Uses 10 CPU and 100 powergrid to fit. Uses no specific fuel or capacitor. Skill requirements: Advanced Weapon Upgrades 5 and Energy Grid Upgrades 5

Rapid Heavy Missile Launchers Entirely new missile launcher group with 20 different meta variations Battleship sized launcher that uses heavy missiles as charges New launcher mechanic with very high damage output in a burst followed by 40 second reload time. For details and discussion on Rapid Heavy Launchers look in this thread

Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher I Fitting: 960 PG, 50 CPU Rate of fire: 6.5s Charge capacity: 21 Reload time: 40s

Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher II Fitting: 1210 PG, 59 CPU Rate of fire: 5.2s Charge capacity: 23 Reload time: 40s



Fleets

The ability to store fleet setups has been added. This includes the number of wings and their squads along with their names. Additionally, Message of the Day and Free-Move and Voice settings can be stored in the fleet setup. These fleet setups are stored server side per character.

The ability to mass-invite to fleets and mass-move fleet members has been added. This is can be done by dragging pilots from various pilots lists (such as chat, Addressbook, Fleet Window, etc), and dropping them in there Fleet Window where they should be added. Mass-invite/mass-move will never make any of the pilots a commander.

It's now possible to add/move pilots to specific wings by dropping them onto the Wing Commander position (while holding down Shift if a single pilot is being dropped).

When pilots join a fleet, they will now enter the first available squad that has both Wing Commander and a Squad Commander. If one is is not available, then the first available squad that has a Wing Commander, then first availble squad that has a Squad Commander, and then the last option is the first available commanderless squad.

It's now possible to add multiple pilots at once to the fleet Watchlist by dropping them in the Watchlist window.

See this devblog for more details.

Graphics and FX

EVE Client supports rendering with DirectX 11 (though there is no graphical difference right now between DirectX 11 and DirectX 9). It is enabled by default if your GPU and OS support it, and DX11/DX9 can be toggled in the EVE Launcher settings.

The death sequence has been updated to include a destroyed capsule and new corpse variations.

The jumpgate activation distinguishes between incoming and outgoing activations.

All ships now have level of detail for their textures which improves the client memory useage.

The warp disruption bubble effects have been modernized to include distortion and color variations for each type. (Warp Disrupt Probe = Blue, Warp Disruption Field Generator I = Red and Mobile Small Warp Disruptor I = Green).

Changes

Tech III Ships

You can now fit subsystems in space. If modules need to be removed because of slot changes they will be placed in the cargo hold of your ship. Note that switching subsystems may temporarily reduce the CPU output and power output to zero which will result in all modules being set offline.

Ship Balancing

Rubicon brings our next step in our ship balancing initiative. This release affects 22 ships total, mainly focusing on Tech 2 hulls (Interceptors, Electronic Attack Frigates, Interceptors and Interdictors).

Electronic Attack Frigates have had the range bonus from Electronic Attack Frigate skill increased significantly, with their cap recharge increased, lock range increased, base speed increased, signature radius reduced and base hitpoints increased. The above changes, along with individual ship adjustments, will make Electronic Attack Frigates a much more potent electronic warfare option.

The Interceptor and Interdictor ship classes have been rebalanced. See detailed stats below, with change from previous values in brackets.

Marauders now use a specialty module named “Bastion Module”, please refer to the “modules” section above for more details about it. They use a combination of Micro Jump Drives and Bastion mode to move around the battlefield and enter a reinforcement mode with hardened defenses when necessary.

Full ship-by-ship rebalance detailed below. The number in parenthesis (+/-) reflects changes next to previous Tranquility attributes for quick comparison.

Modules

All Tech 2 turrets have had their skill requirements cut. They will now not require smaller turret requirements to be trained. Please refer to this Dev Blog for more details.

The Interdiction Sphere Launcher has had its reactivation delay removed, and can now load three Warp Disruption Probes at a time. In exchange its reload time has been increased to one minute. In addition, the Interdiction Sphere Launcher is now limited to one per ship.

Rebalancing Rapid Light Missile Launchers Rapid Light Missile launchers will now also feature the burst fire and long reload mechanic introduced with Rapid Heavy Missile Launchers PG requirements for fitting Rapid Light Missile Launchers have been increased For details and discussion see this thread. Rapid Light Missile Launcher I Fitting: 72 PG, 35 CPU Rate of fire: 7.8s Charge capacity: 16 Reload time: 40s Rapid Light Missile Launcher II Fitting: 76 PG, 39 CPU Rate of fire: 6.2s Charge capacity: 18 Reload time: 40s



Science and Industry

The base tech one blueprint required for inventing the Absolution, Nighthawk, Sleipnir and Eos Command Ships have been updated to reflect their new hulls.

The Absolution is now invented from a Harbinger blueprint.

The Eos is now invented from Myrmidon blueprint.

The Nighthawk is now invented from Drake blueprint.

The Sleipnir is now invented from Hurricane blueprint.

Exploration & Deadspace

Level 1 to 3 DED sites and high-sec Anomaly sites have been added to the low-sec distribution tables. (The high-sec tables are unaffected). This is aimed at increasing income opportunities for newer players in low-sec space.

Player Owned Structures, Outposts and Stations

Ship Maintenance Arrays and XL Ship Maintenance Arrays will now drop wrecks containing some of their ships. Each ship has the same 50/50 survived/destroyed chance as regular loot. Ships can be individually launched from the (XL)SMA wreck in to space, where they can be boarded like any other un-piloted ship. Once the wreck is emptied, it can be salvaged like any other . SMAs will generate killmails showing what ships were dropped and what were destroyed (including items in/on those ships). See blog for details.

Only one ship at a time can now be launched from a Ship Maintenance Array
