I reversed the conversation, so read from the top down wrote:

Only just noticed your rank... Why the heck were you on my BT? xD

6 mins ago From: Bauhomut
some times i see guys 300 ranks above me on my BT. Better luck next time. Happy hunting.

Thats less than 50 percent of your rank though. Youre not a huge jump away from double my rank.

not sure, what is really confusing is you should have not been able to see me at all with so few scaners on your ship. look at how much cloak i have!

Ive got 1186 scanning. Whats your cloak?

Less than a minute ago From: Bauhomut
I have 5428 cloak

Bauhomut attacked you and set off your Hallows Bane Trick!


I'm rank 416; this was my interraction with a rank 740 who showed up on my BT. For the second one, I suggested he may have accidentally hit me and that he should change his password.

He's a much higher rank than me; over 1.75 times my rank. I'm not sure how the BT works with showing people above you in rank, though everybody else I've seen today has been below my rank.

The second box happened as I was typing this out; how does scanning work against cloak on the BT in regards to seeing enemy ships? His cloak is almost 5 times higher than my scan.

There is no upper rank limit... when i was rank 700 i was able to see the then rank 2k PhoenixRev or whatever his ign was at that time on my bt.


As for how scan vs cloak works on the bt... the higher your cloak, the more difficult you are to find, there is no way to actually hide, regardless of how high your cloak is... just means you won't show as often.

did they have a firewall trap on them? or been clouded?

every now and again you see much higher ranked players. it happens


what really concerns me is that bahamut, spelled his IGN wrong.
