EVE Online Tutorial: Complete Frigate PVP Gameplay Guide 

Hmm I don't really have any vids flying support. But this vid is a really great look at PVP as logi (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5y5qmfivFv8.html). But definitely in small gangs etc. logi/ewar support can be super powerful and is really easy to get into SP wise as well which is nice :) At least ewar anyway, logi is a bit more skill intensive.

Awesome that's great man! Sounds like fun :) Hope you can get out there now and get some kills \o/

Awesome thanks heaps man! o7

Awesome :) Tell them to come and visit Ouelletta sometime! :p

james on the internet why Ouelleta?

Oh shit... rip spelling :/

NP man :) Glad you enjoyed it.

Cheers man. VP4Lyf!

furyspitfire cheers man 😀

Rosson311 I'm sorry dude, but you were just bad at PvP.

Rosson311 :( man wacth some tutorials... And in the end fly stealth ships so you can pick fights.

Rosson311 lol . I was wondering if I was the worse PvP pilot untill I saw your comment

Played great pvp in Quake/RT/Neocron, but playing Eve pvp I was hopeless, because Eve is not about reflexes, but about deep Intel on your target. By the time you attack the outcome is known :)

That’s the saddest story I ever heard.

indeeeed

Chance Day the thing is if you fly a cruiser, you're just mostly going to get fights with other cruisers. Everything more or less just scales up/down, but the lager stuff needs more skills and usually more ISK. So to learn to fight you really wanna get a grip on frig PvP first, in and environment like LS where you can control fights with plexes.

thank you for the reply, helped me out a lot :)

Chance Day anytime spacebro !

It's really hard to say what it could be without knowing all the details, but there's a few general tips I can give you. With catching kiters you can try to 'slingshot' them, which is basically just burning away from the kiter so he has to follow you, and then turning into him and using his momentum against him to get close and hopefully land your tackle. It sounds like you weren't quite able to get close enough to whatever you were fighting. Sometimes your UI can tell you you're at 13km range, but in reality your say 13 300m from the target so you web still can't land. You can also maybe look to improve the speed of your fit, although Atron is normally quite quick if fit in the standard way. Other than that just try to maybe pick your fights, not everything can be killed by blaster atron. Tristans will be a pain etc. Hope this helps! :)

Thank you. I tried the burn thing to get within 13km. An overheated web should be 15km? I'm going to try to use hotkeys to be faster. I haven't fought a Tristan yet. I have gotten some key tips, like pre-approaching and using hotkeys. I've also improved my Atron fit a bit, getting out there again soon. Hopefully next time I'll fare better.

Yeah don't get confused with a Pilots Licence Extension and an FW plex/compound. It's a bit confusing for a newbro I know, but same name completely different things :) There's a link in the description of the vid with some FW plex info, but basically a plex is a 'site' where ppl who are in an FW corp can go and earn LP (loyalty points) by just sitting there for a specified period of time (until the plex has been 'captured/secured'). And yeah ppl just afk in the sites sometimes cos apparently you literally don't have to do anything to run a plex/compound other than be inside the site. I dunno to me it seems kinda soulless content, but then again like I said I don't really know a lot about it.

alright thank you for all the help.

np man :) get out there and kill things \o/

Docolin Dan ha ha thanks my dude!

Ha ha yeah the only way to fly! I always used to find so many players were just so overly cautious, and I kinda started getting annoyed at ppl telling me to 'fly safe.' So 'fly dangerous' became my thing 😊😁💥🔥🚀🚀

Yeah...my friend who introduced me to this game was too cautious so I literally did the opposite of what he told me to do

The alpha clone exploration guide is definitely on my to do list. I can't promise when you'll see it exactly, but I will definitely get done at some point in the near(ish) future.

Alright, thanks!!!

Ha ha yeah. I've always so wanted to get into that game... But I always seem to get bored after 20 lvls or so and not come back. I guess I'm just jonsing for KOTOR 3 :)

so sad the death of that game

🚀

No you dont, but your sec status will take a hit as you are engaging neutrals. Lots of non FW pilots in FW space.

But that is key to winning pvp in eve - when to take or not take a fight.

"Knowing is half the battle "- G.I. Joe

I can fly cruisers and battlecruisers now too but afraid to take them out until I can figure out how to make isk to replace them. I would need to kill like 100 frigates that dropped something to replace a battle cruiser? I just dont see that happening especially with my lack of skills. What am i doing wrong?

Yup generally PVP is a costly exercise, not a way to earn money. The only real way to earn money from PVP is to join a FW militia. Then you can start running FW plexes, and missions which can actually make some serious ISK. The way an FW plex works is you need to sit inside the site for a specified time period, and the end of which you get loyalty points. Whilst you're in there, ppl from the other militia's will come and fight you, as well as pirate players like myself :) There's also mechanics around running plexes that have a broader scope, where basically the more plexes you complete, the more it adds to control of that system for your militia. There are also two types of plexing. Defensive plexing (plexing in your militia's conrolled space) or offensive plexing (plexing in enemy controlled space). Offensive plexing works towards your militia gaining control of that system, and defensive plexing works toward defending your controlled space making it less easy to take. But like I kinda mentioned in the video, I don't really know that much about FW as I've never done it :) But yeah these days I've picked up the basics just from living in the space and talking to ppl.

Thats kinda disappointing, I want to be a "space pirate" I have no interest in pve or grinding. I dont even need to get kills I just want to be able to demand cash or goods from a trapped player or something. There seriously no way to do this? because they advertise the game as this being a thing :(

Of course you can do that :) This is just an open world sandbox, where if you're clever about it, you can contrive any situation you can imagine yourself or another player getting caught in. And ppl are scamming, ransoming and destroying each others stuff every day. If you're looking for guidance, I'd say try to join a HS wardec corp like Pirat or Marmite (but these corps tend to have pretty high entry standards) or a ganking corp like CODE.

Ha ha thanks man :) Yeah I've actually thought about re-doing some of these now that I have a better mic. Might be something I get around to at some point :)

That's not what approaching means. He literally looked at his opponents' ship, which means this other ship is now what your screen shows you, not what your ship is doing but what the opponent does.

Yes obviously your not going to notice your approaching the other ship if your not even looking at your own ship. Which was my point...

@@finneas9894 okay, got the comment wrong. Guess he was zoomed in bc He wanted to see his guns and thought He was orbiting him or something.

bester Fan no problem man it happens, maybe it wasnt clear what i was trying yo say

isectoid sorry yeah that's a bit confusing I know... plex in this context is short for 'complex,' a combat zone used by pilots in factional ware fare.

Thanks. So, how hard is FW for new PVPers? are there any FW based corporations?

isectoid PvP in EvE is always challenging for new players I guess. The easiest way to PvP as a newbro is to join a nullsec blob and jump in their big fleets where they'll use you as one of the foot soldiers basically. There's good things about it, you'll get free ships and a green killboard but won't learn a lot really, and definitely won't learn to solo. But yes there's heaps of FW corps, and I think it's really the best place for new players wanting to really learn to PvP capably. I mentioned some of the corps I like here, but the landscape in terms of who's active and has cool ppl playing is always changing. So poke around and see what might work for you.

you can fight in FW space and complexes without actually joining FW militia

Yeah man 👍

Nah man low sec is perfect for alphas. Plexes means you can dictate what size hull you'll be fighting, so you can get fair(er) fights :) But yes solo PVP as an alpha is hard, and you need some PVP experience before you can really solo well as an alpha toon. I'm gonna do some solo PVP vids with one of my alphas characters at some point soon.

Then what about hunting pirates around high sec? I've searched for maps that tell places, I suspected from the longevity of the game and the population these could actually exist, but couldn't find any debutante friendly info on the subject. The other thing is that for some odd reason people don't play together early on, as it is common in other MMO games. I find it very boring to play by myself.

There is such a thing as hi-sec PVP, but that involves you joining a war dec corp and many of them have killboard efficiency requirements for entry. I don't think it's really what your looking for tho... these guys are generally pretty bad and actual PVP and very risk averse. Other than that you can't really PVP in hi-sec because of CONCORD. But there's lots of corps who will happily accept newbro pilots, so you certainly don't have to play alone. I mentioned a few of them in this video, but there's also groups like Brave Newbies, Test, Horde, Karmafleet. These guys do more null sec stuff and larger fleets generally. I dunno have a look around and ask ppl about corps that offer what you're looking for. There's literally a corp for whatever it is you wanna do.

Thank you.

kebman yeah but I gotta put it in terms the normies will understand bruvs :) Once they take the red pill, they'll realize we ain't playing no games! 🚀🔥🔥💥

Sansire Nerevar Got 2 fully trained and plexed toons and never put a penny into the game

You must be made of money or know how to produce ISK.

I mean because there's such a thing as a completely free, GOOD PC game... You can do everything in the game as a free account, just not to the same level as a paying player. CCP is a company, making money is their MO... smh Also it's really easy to pay for your game time with in game currency, provided you resourceful and smart about things. It's a bit grindy at first, but the more you become established, the easier it is to make money. Eventually you won't even think about it, ISK seriously grows on trees in EVE.

I mean. I would have been happier with them just sticking to 15 bucks a month...That's nothing now a days.

sprintonwater league of legends is one of the most successful games of all time, and is completely free to play. leaving only cosmetic items behind a real currency pay wall. Team Fortress 2 World of Tanks and War thunder, while a bit unbalanced are still "good".

Not true my alpha has a full t2 caracal that includes t2 weapons.

good joke lel top kek
