In the last day of eve Federation mega will fight Imperial apoc at the Jita undock. They will fight for hours until suicide squad arrives, but in their hubris they destroy both of Glorious Battleships simultaneously and explosion will be so great, that it wipe out all the servers and ccp bank accounts.

Hey /eog/,

I started this game about a week ago, I joined a noobie corp (pandemic horde) and I am having a blast. Lots of fleet fights where I pretty much just tackle something then get blaped by the thing I am tackling (usually vexors/ ishtars/ dessys, caracals). Which I am totally fine with, I get i it, you hold them down and your fleetmates kill them hopefully before they kill you.

Yesterday I started trying to do solo pvp and man do I suck fat donkey dick at that. I have tried every single fit that I have found at least 5 or 6 times and just been absolutely destroyed every time. I think the furthest I have gotten someone is into half armor. I am not using my own fit, these are things I found on zkillboard from "good" pilots, I just tech them down.

Kite tristan? Blap
Brawl Tristan? Blap
Kestral? Blap
Atron? blap
Tormentor? blap

Should I just stick with one ship? Surely I shouldn't be sucking this hard just to start? Have you all been lying to me in that it really is too late to start playing eve because only hardcore people with 100m sp are the ones doing anything?

>>150095206
I should stick with one ship to feel a dick in yo... to feel your engagement profile.

>eve
>solo pvp

>>150095206
What are you even fighting? You do know pirate frigates have better bonuses, right? And that older players have more bonuses through skills too and can use T2 guns and ammo?

what is this about DX11 I just heard?

>>150095206

Focus on one ship for training and learn to pick your fights also. If your only a week old then there are very few fights you can win on your own since most of what you will come up against will have a month or more training and skill over you (check there charecter sheets in local before warping to them to get a feel of what your going up against).

>>150095206
Link killboard

>>150095718
>a month
More like 5 years.

>>150095363
don't tease me senpai

>>150095528
Pretty much the same ships, daredevils, I fought a thorax and lived, I don't think he had a point.

So.... it is too late? I wont get enough isk to sustain buying pirate ships for a while. I have been cloak caping sites in FW for isk and it's not that great of money. I get like 100 mil then buy some ships. Yes I know that T2 guns and ammo are better.

>>150095206
it's not entirely sp. you can get to within 90% effectiveness on small ships like frigates in a couple of weeks.

learning your engagement profile in a given ship is super important, because it's like rock paper scissors what you can kill and what can kill you (I'm not saying it's easy - it's hard because it requires learning sort of how everything is fit and what it can do, but it's needed).

Also it's quite likely that your mechanical execution isn't as good as it could be. Presumably you've been watching the Suitonia Eve Is Easy vids, and if you haven't, you should do that.

also in lowsec, you are likely to find a lot of people expensive as fuck implants (because it's hard for a player who knows what he's doing to lose pods in lowsec) and link alts (because lowsec is small, there are a lot of stations for your links to dock at, and moving them around with you isn't too hard) and drugs because why not. If you try your luck in null, it will be harder to get up and going when you get inevitably wrecked, but you'll find a lot more people with empty pods and no links. Also there are a lot of retards in null because giant alliances don't incentivize personal skill as much as the smaller pirate groups that live in lowsec, for a number of reasons.

consider getting the program Pirate's Little Helper to help you interpret some of the information about the people you are fighting.

>>150095870
You dont need pirate ships for a while. all of them, except maybe worm are actually hard to fly.

>>150095667
i dunno but hopefully it fixes the .massive frame drop issues

>>150095870
he wasn't saying you should buy pirate ships, just that you should recognize pirate ship names when you see them and know that for now, they are a bit over your abilities to successfully engage.

this >>150095842 is totally wrong, though I would have said more like three months for a nice fat engagement profile. You can and should be out losing frigs and dessies even at a week old in order to learn what you can do with weak tools, though. do NOT fall into the trap of "i need to fly interceptors to do well" "i need to fly a svipul to do well" "i need to fly a recon cruiser to do well". You can kick ass in any ship against the right target, and fortunately plenty of dumb targets exist if you're smart about looking for them and recognizing them when you see them.

>>150095206
>Should I just stick with one ship?

Up to you, but it's easier to learn one than learn them all. It's also better to focus your skills into t2 equipment for one type of ship.

Ship choice doesn't matter that much. Every ship can die and every ship can kill under proper conditions. You just have to learn what those are.

>Surely I shouldn't be sucking this hard just to start?

Imagine you were trying to play football, but having never learned to walk. This is what you're doing. Of couse you''l suck.

> Have you all been lying to me in that it really is too late to start playing eve because only hardcore people with 100m sp are the ones doing anything?

In frig fights, only 2-5m of those 100m sp can actually count.

>>150095895
So a kiting ship gets beat by a brawling ship that lands on it? stuff like that?

I will watch those vids.

>>150096246
so avoid pirate ships.


>>150096438
So lets say I should just learn one engagement profile, what should I start with that is relatively easy?

>>150097216
>what should I start with that is relatively easy?

Brawl Kestrel (overrated but it can get the job done). Watch Suitonia's vids for Kestrel memes. Also watch this if you think skills are limiting

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgy17ji1RKI

Any kitey fit is also a good start (because all kitey shit is flown the same, and once you know one, you know them all). The trick is just to know the speed you need to go to outrange other ships. Basically you just have to learn what's faster than your ship, and ignore those.

My advice would be to train for a dessie and play with that. It's slower than a frig and dies more easily, but you are stronger than in a frig.

>>150097216
yeah kestrels are popular
to the point that the most recent zkill guide video references suitonia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdPi67dDydg

I'm just saying most people willing to solo PvP will have 5 years of SP and ISK on him.
That's mostly true. Nearly everyone gives up on solo pvp until they reach that point where they can just casually replace pirate frigs with T2/cheap faction/cheap officer fit. Because, you know, everyone else soloing will have that kind of stuff.

First and biggest problem right there. Choose one race, skill the fuck into them, get solid skills, and then branch out.

Tristans are easymode, get some t2 drones, keep everyone at range, and you'd have to be literally braindamaged to not win those engagements.

For Rocket kestrel you don't have to. Tech Ii rage rockets apply just fine vs frigates especially if you have a web on you. The DPS gain you get from them is much better than the faction ammo

maybe learn how things work instead of parroting the same bullshit your FCs tell you because "that's the way it's always been done"

proud of what you're trying to do anon, actually playing eve instead of carebearing doing boring as fuck l3 or l4 mission spam.

>>150152998

WoW's colorful, has a character that I could max out in about a week instead of 3 years whatever bullshit, has arenas and a whole demographic trying to play them (so finding actual dudes to Skype and play with is simple), and plausibly interesting raiding.

500k sp is 7.7 days worth of training at 2700sp/hr.
Doesn't look remotely worth it to me.
But then i am in an odd position as my chars have 50m sp, but i never played very actively, and so never had much ISK.
Exctractors on the other had...

you got two gold from the silver? that sounds wrong

Some guy must have figured out the ideal role distribution for 2 accounts, right?
Account 1 - character x:
PVP
Hauling
Ships

Accoint 2 - chacater y:
mining
trade
PVE

I'm sitting here trying to decide which character should do what, so that i avoid overlap.
I'm guessing the rest of the character slots in each account should be filled with cyno alts, yes?

>Xe fell for the multiboxing meme

Enjoy your burn out in a few weeks. It's like CCP wants players to do everything for them to burn out and unsub

>>150163253
I mean for example, PVE and trade naturally synergise because of standings
Production has to be spread out over several characters to be worth it, right? Not something i intend to get into...

I guess Capitals are best left to an entirely separate character? Fuck capitals...

>>150163253
account 1: pvp (pve skills are the same)
cyno alt

account 2: cap pilot
I would say links alt but thats getting nerfed soon.

>>150163969
that doesnt mean alts couldnt still do links, it just means you have to make them be on grid, so more management

This

Your main can already do like 60% of the skills required for a cap and the last 3 months of training are the capital skills. Don't waste effort training another character for something your main is already proficient at. Unless its a super or titan and your character is locked to it you don't need to make a dedicated dread or carrier alt

is any of those content packs worth it?

>>150190916
yea they sometimes are, don't get the miner or exploration one since you get all that stuff from the in game tutorial anyway.

thanks is there a way to see if my PLEX is on my acc already so ican use the 4 hour time to activate a PLEX thingy? kinda scared i use it and my PLEX isnt there yet

>>150191162
you might be able to activate your plex from the account page, if the plex is in the redeeming system you can use it from the account page to activate game time

sorry to hear that ramirez, but if you were at war they would've fucked you up regardless of your internet going out

>>150194201
PVE's all about using the best DPS+damage projection you can find. Tank bonuses don't help that much.

Domi's better if you're gallente, Rattlesnake, Vindicator and Machariel if you wanna mix.

>>150194262
Yeah, I didn't notice that they were at war. It's bullshit though, because I almost guarantee they weren't there for me, they're a merc corp that got hired to do a small job on my corp, which is in the process of disbanding. If my internet hadn't gone out, my ship wouldn't have stayed in space, and I would have been able to instajump.

>>150194468

You're welcome senpai. Mail Satori Sartori in-game if you need more directions some other time. It's a hard game to get into.

>>150191162
tangentially related but anyone with an active account is able to activate one of their plex on another character, thereby donating game time to them (the recipient doesn't have to be subbed at the time).

So for instance, you could get one of your friends to resub you and pay them back in a longer form than the 4 hours CCP requires. Or you could run a buddy trial and get a plex with some elbow grease and then apply it to your main.

>>150194135
petition it, say your internet went out. you might get the stuff back, but the attackers will keep the killmail.

>>150196153
something like the f12 menu ingame to submit a ticket. describe the situation briefly but mention the key details (internet dropped, instawarp ship) and ask nicely if you are eligible for reimbursement.

>>150195590

2003 player here, returning to the game today after a couple of years away.

Alliance is gone.
Corp is gone.
Half my shit is gone.

I left because I was burned out but this is a nice fresh start, i'm actually excited to get in.

I've noticed there's a few new ships and skills etc, as well as a huge overhaul to how I remember most things looking/working, particularly probe scanning, is it really as simple as it appears now?

I like the look of these tactical destroyers, grabbed a gallente one and it's a good bit of fun.

However, i'm utterly perplexed about this research minigame thing, why am I doing it? What am I gaining? Why does it seem bullshit sometimes and are there skills relevant to it?

>>150200567
The new destroyers are really good basically overpowered, particularly the minmatar one, don't let that dissuade you though.

Reasearch mini-game isn't super important, don't worry about it.
