Invasion Chapter 2

Defenders and offenders of New Eden, the second chapter in the EVE Online - Invasion expansion is now live, and free to download for all players!

With Invasion Chapter 2 comes the introduction of a new Triglavian combat experience, one where you will have to choose between siding with the Empires or the Triglavian Collective in engagements, allowing for two paths through the encounters!

The awesome new Triglavian Dreadnought - the Zirnitra - also makes its bow in this new chapter. This new ship will prove a challenging adversary for Capsuleers, but also a desirable prize for those that can pilot it. There will also be new skills required for piloting the Dreadnought, as well as the monstrous new Ultratidal Entropic Disintegrator guns and new ammo for it.

There are updates to the Loyalty Point Store, meaning that you can now get an all new Mimesis Implant set in both mid and low-grade versions, giving a maximum damage multiplier bonus to Triglavian weapons for even more raw firepower from these already formidable weapons. There are also 16 new SKINs in the Firestorm line available!

This new chapter in the Invasion expansion also brings with it other new features too, including Shareable Bookmarks. This new addition allows Capsuleers to share specific locations in New Eden with alliance members and anyone else they choose, with control over access and duration.

Power to the Matari fleet! Good news for fans of the Stabber Fleet Issue Cruiser and Tempest Fleet Issue Battleship, they are getting extra damage bonuses to their rate of fire. Medium Autocannons are also getting an upgrade across the board.

The Typhoon and Bellicose will be enjoying explosion velocity improvements, and the Muninn will be taken down a notch after a long period of fleet domination.

Personal folders cannot be changed to shared but you can create a shared folder and copy bookmarks across by shift dragging.

This increases the shared bookmark limit from 500 to 1500 when only considering online folders (and much more if you include offline folders)

Thanks for the feedback, we’ll discuss these suggestions!

We understand this is a disruption but it was done to make the menu cleaner and more consistent for all options. If you wish to access the locations directly we’ve added a new shortcut that you can assign, called “Open Location Menu” (Esc Menu -> Shortcuts -> Combat -> Open Location Menu).

I hope this helps, thanks again for the feedback!

Well the number of total bookmarks and the number of folders are both very relevant when it comes to server performance. Within each folder however you can have a near infinite number of sub-folders. I’m not sure exactly what your use-case is so I’m unsure if this meets your requirements

I understand. What we are offering now is three times better than what you had 3 hours ago, but sadly due to performance concerns we couldn’t increase the benefits even further. Hopefully one day we’ll be able to beat this!

Good point, thanks for the feedback!

For quick access directly to your saved locations we’ve added a new shortcut that you can assign, called “Open Location Menu” (Esc Menu -> Shortcuts -> Combat -> Open Location Menu). This allows you to go straight to your saved locations on a right click in space.

Thanks for the feedback, we’ll look into this.

Doesn’t seem to be an issue for me, but if it keeps occurring send us a bug report and I’l investigate!

Just so you are aware you can have up to 30 folders (combined personal and shared), but only 3 online at a time. So I don’t think you need those alts my friend

Is it possible that the folder you are trying to save bookmarks in is over the size limit?

Thanks for the feedback. So to clarify (as we’ve been discussing this internally), there are two things going on here:

1. Bookmarks are now all nested under the locations heading
2. Folders with more than 8 base items (sub-folders or bookmarks) now collapse into a sub-heading rather than list all their options)

As the number of sections in the menu has increased to a potential 8 (5 personal and 3 shared up from 1 personal and 1 corp), we need to to some intelligent collapsing of menus to stop the r-click menu from overrunning the whole screen. However, this has definitely led to some situations where you now have to go 2 levels deeper than you did before and we’re not happy with that. We’re talking more internally to see if we can find a better solution, no promises at this time, but apologies for the disruption.

To avoid this issue you can make sure your insta warp bookmarks are in a folder with 8 or less base items and they will show in the first locations submenu as shown below:

8 or less items:

More than 8 items:
