Share your favourite third-party tool for $5

It's a general intel tool, you can get tons of great information about any person or entity in New Eden. My focus right here will be on my favorite thing on evewho, the DELTAS.

"What is Delta?Delta is the theoretical estimate of how much an option's value may change given a $1 move UP or DOWN in the underlying security. The Delta values range from -1 to +1, with 0 representing an option where the premium barely moves relative to price changes in the underlying stock."

The deltas have a wider range here, but they tell an interesting story for Coalition and Alliance leaders looking to size up organizational growth of friends and foes. Enjoy. :D

Pyfa - The Better Ship Simulator

(at least better than the ingame one)

Ever wondered how you can defeat that one big bully ship that has been killing you every single time you fought against it? Ever asked yourself the question:**"Man, that ship looks great, but how will it do once I CAN sit in it?"**Ever wondered how a ship would look once you skilled into it properly, not just the base requirements to sit in it? Or wondered if that extra Powergrid skill will really make your fit work or if it is just entirely impossible?

Well, you can, actually.

Pyfa is a third party ship simulator that allows you to fit together different fits - like the one ingame - but apply skills to it. Either maximum skills, the ones of your character, or any skills you throw together as you want!

Pyfa allows you to simulate about anything:

How much damage will my ship do to an interceptor that is orbiting me perfectly? (spoilers you won't)

Want to know what happens if you apply a Webifier to that Interceptor? You can simulate that. Incoming remote repairs and Fleet Command Boosts? Yes. Being webified yourself? Yes. Energy Neutralized? Yes. Damage fall off? Yes, yes, yes.

It has a long feature list, and if there is a tool that makes or breaks a fleet this one is it. How else would you know that Rapid Light Missiles work really well against any frigate?

**Upsides:

1. It allows for anyone to build a Fleet Composition without needing to have the skills, ships and fits ready to try it out to see how they synergize with each other.

2. You can see how a Ship will turn out before even investing your skillpoints into it.

3. It allows you to analyze why you lost a fight after it is done by comparing how your fleet did compared to the enemy fleet if you simulate it properly.

4. Saying "I go pyfa this fit" makes you sound like a professional (instant promotion to Supreme Skymarshal)**

Probably the one I se the most as a hunter is zkillboard. Allows me to check fittings form protential opponents before I take a fightm track targets and my own statisticst. It also alows you to share you kills and loses with other players outside of the game with an itemized list of the modules and other things the ship carried at teh moment of it's destruction.

My favorite tool is: EVE Cookbook In the EVE universe, it is common to narrate the great battles and their colossal cost in ISK. However, a fundamental part for these events to take place is industry. I could write a complete thesis on why this game mechanic is a vital part of the development of other roles, but in this case, we are going to analyze the best tool (in my opinion) to streamline the manufacturing process in EVE.

EVE Cookbook contains all the recipes to cook chaos and destruction in the galaxy. Do you want to build a fleet to annihilate your enemies? Well, with this tool, you can calculate all the materials you will need, in what quantity, and their cost, all by simply selecting your blueprint, assigning the enhancement values, specifying the system and station where it will be manufactured, the tax (if you pay taxes in EVE too), if there is any additional value in ISK, and of course, the quantity of items you want to manufacture. Once we have all the parameters, a list will be generated with all the items we will need, the quantities, the cost in Jita, the manufacturing time, and if all this were not enough, it gives us an estimate of what we are going to earn (or lose) based on Jita prices.

But wait, there's more! If our dish involves reactions, we can also calculate it. This is very useful if you want to manufacture absolutely everything. Additionally, we can see detailed steps so as not to forget anything. And as if all this were not enough, you can invite its efficient bot to your Discord server, with which you can make your queries without using your browser.

Easy, fast, and very intuitive, the perfect cookbook to keep your companions and allies well supplied at the lowest possible cost and earning ISK in the process.
