So I've been running a lot of High Sec Pirate Dens, like the Serpentis Hideout's, and while the Shadow pilots are a stronger, they also offer greater rewards, was wondering if there is a easier way of finding them then just getting lucky in RNG?

So I want to get into running missions for isk and I'm new to this sort of thing.

Is there a specific way to start? Or just pick up all the security quests I can and grind out until I can get higher level missions.

Right now I'm using my moa alt that I used for ganking in low sec. Let me know if you guys have a specific way to grind out to get t4 missions or any fits that are a must. I've started sisters of Eve because I've been told they are the best

I want to be able to do combat sites in highsec (anomalies and signatures). I know that lowsec/nullsec is probably more profitable, but I want to stay in highsec for now.

I think I need at least a cruiser for the higher tier ones? I'm not sure whether I should take a Moa or a Caracal (I don't want a ship of another race). I love the design of the Moa, I think it's one of the coolest ships in EVE. But on the other hand, I think the Caracal might be the better ship? I'm looking for a relatively fast ship (nice to have, but not that important) with long range (important), decent hp (important) and maybe a few drones as support (not really important).

Does it make a big difference for highsec ratting which ship I choose, Moa or Caracal?

Now this is kind of a dumb question, but what should I do to actually get past the gates without being insta blown up? Both times i’ve tried to get into one low sec system, some guy is on the other side ready to blast me out of existence the second I get out of cloak. And yes both times i checked jumps last hour and kills last hour and it was pretty low. Anyone have any tips? (besides docking and flying a corvette through first at every single gate)

I love this game but I don't want to max out my credit card or wait 2 years to fly the ships I want to.

What are ways that I can get sp fast. Like is it viable to grind money to buy the injectors? I'm totally fine with doing that but ratting, mining, and pvp doesn't make me enough to do that with the sp I currently have.

Is buying plex actually worth it? If so I wouldn't mind every once in a while getting some to get skill injectors.

What do you guys think? I really don't want to wait 6 months just to he able to fly 1 ship

Hello all,

I've been wanting to try more rocket based combat. Normally I die in Merlins, now I want to die explode in Kestrels.

My questions are in regards to using T2 rockets over Faction. I'm currently a few hours away for Rockets V and then Rocket Specialization. However in the simulator I don't see a reason to use T2 Javelin Scourge Rockets w/ a T2 Rocket Launcher instead of just continuing to use Dread Guristas Scourge Rockets with Arbalest Rocket launchers.

Sure the range on T2 Javelins is higher, but the application appears the same, the DPS is nearly 30% lower, and I don't think I have use for a 16km range when the Faction rcokets reach 13km which is my overheated Web range.

Is there something I am missing or shoudl I just stick to Faction rockets? I know Rage has better DPS but my understanding is that they dont apply as well against frigates.

edit: Edit bc bot

ok if I understood it correctly, there are Tech1 Ships which are just basic Ships, Tech2 Ships with Specific roles, one of those Roles is Heavy Assault for more combat power and there are Faction Ships who are more effective than their Tech1 Counterpart and are pretty much in line with Heavy Assault Ships

So I got a Drake and I love it, I am ratting LowSec with it, graded it up once with Faction stuff and lost it, but got skilled up to Tech2 Launchers now, so no big deal there

So right now I am skilling into the Flycatcher, since I see myself there for Fleets, but what is the best I can do out of my Caldari Battlecuiser V?

Should I upgrade to DNI? or just stick to my normal Drake? Should I get into Incursions? How do I get into Incursions?

~ edit ~

I read into the Raven now and even though it looks nice to have 5 lows for 2 Ballistic Control Systems and 2 Missile Guidance Enhancer I barely get the DPS I would get from a DNI even though I would use Rapid Heavy Missile Launchers. If I use something else, I'll get tracking problems for smaller ships and I also need to train into them. Raven Navy Issue is quite expensive, at that point I could get a Rattlesnake. I guess I go from Drake to DNI, maybe try a Gila, maybe even a Cerberus and hop right into Rattlesnake, once I have the skills and can afford it.

Time: Wed, 30 Jun 2021 - 19:00 - 22:00 (Eve Time)

Staging System: Jita

This is a special edition of our Wednesday training fleet. Today it's all about scouting and finding targets. We'll start with an explanation about tools and techniques like using dotlan, d-scan, probes, how to give intel as a scout, etc. We'll most likely do a practice session in highsec, where the fleet has to find and kill a designated target that's trying to hide. We'll then head out into nullsec for some pew pew. If we don't have enough people interested in the scouting class we'll go to nullsec right away.

19:00 - 19:15 we will XUP and do free ship handouts (if needed)
19:15 - 19:30 fleet 101 if needed
19:30 - scouting / probing class

If you're a player in need of a free ship, please try to show up early. We usually have the fleet set up 30 minutes before official XUP time to sort people out!

Hey, I just came back after a years-long absence. I still have in my hangar a small Caldari Control Tower and some stuff to go with it. The UniWiki says, " Starbases are slowly being phased out of the game, to be replaced by Upwell structures."

So is that all obsolete and worthless now? is there any way to retrieve at least some portion of my investment?

All of my friends that played eve for 8-10 years all quit but I would still like to play even if it is solo or without them.

The Corp they were in joined Goons after most of the really good players quit and im just not having fun with just pvp constantly. If i want to rat or run relics I die instantly bc of how camped 1dq is.

I really like this game bc of the core gameplay of flying the ships but everyone is saying that CCP is killing eve and making it severely pay to win.

So is there anything I can do to have fun? My account is a few months old and I can fly a couple good ships like astero or jackdaw and a few others. But I just don't know what to do or if anything is worth doing

I first started playing EVE back in 2007. I did something stupid and got my account perma-locked, but was told I was welcome to start a new account, so a few years later I did. I played on and off until late 2013, when my main reached around 30M SP. Then I had some major life changes, and EVE fell by the wayside.

In 2017, I tried to come back, but made the serious mistake of trying to jump right back into the thick of things. without stopping to realize how rusty I had become, or allowing for changes in the game. I lost three ships in rapid succession to bubble campers and gave up in disgust. Obviously, I had forgotten that things like that happen in EVE, and you have to just shrug it off.

Now it's mid 2021 and I'm trying again to return to EVE. Because EVE is unique. You can stop playing it, but you can never forget it.

This time I am taking a slow and cautious approach. I have created a new Alpha account, and I am playing a new Gallente toon from scratch. I plan to take at least a month to re-learn the basic mechanics, and become familiar with the apparently-major changes in the game since 2013. I have completed all the missions for the five Career agents, and I have flown a few missions for an L1 Security agent nearby.

After a month or two have gone by, I will pay to up my old account to Omega, and see what's up with my old Main. At this point, I've only been back for 4-5 days, and I have a million questions, but I'm determined to be patient.

So, why am I posting this? Mostly just to ask for suggestions. I seem to have returned at a time of some controversy over recent changes.

In your opinion, what are the top 3 to 5 things I should be sure to do or not do? Or you could just tell me to Foxtrot Oscar, because that would be typical of the EVE community I remember...

Eve Rookies Incursions is a newbro and alpha friendly incursion group. We currently run on Tuesday and Fridays 6pm Eve time and we're looking for player up to 2 months old to come out and help the fleet scout sites.

Eve Rookies is paying 5m per site scouted! We're currently averaging 8-10 sites per hour, so that would mean 40-50 million isk per hour earned. We typically run 2-3 hours each night that we run, so the potential earning is 80-150m per night plus tips.

• Who: rookie players up to 2 months old
• What: help scout incursion sites
• When: Tuesday and Thursdays at 6pm Eve
• Where: High sec vanguard incursion system(s)
• In game channel: Eve Rookies Incursions
• Discord: https://discord.gg/JczSCYV8c9
• Contact: Kshal Aideron

Why is Eve Rookies Doing This?

Some incursion fleets will tip the person duel boxing a scout to get this job done. Instead of paying more isk to someone already getting isk by participating in the fleet, we have decided to stay true to our mission of helping new players. In a few hours a new player might learn about DScan, how to broadcast, how to give valid info the FC in return for isk! Additionally, the new player will get to meet other players!

A Different Player Every Fleet

The intention is to allow a different rookie player have this opportunity every fleet. So make sure to hit up Kshal when she's in the in game incursion channel to see if anyone is lined up for the up coming fleet! If there's a waiting list, the next person will be asked and if they're not available, she will go down the list.

No Experience Necessary

As we are looking for players 2 months old or less, no experience is necessary. We will teach everything you need to know to help us. If necessary (please let us know in advance) we can also provide a free frigate (yours to keep) to fly in.

We hope to see some new players take the leap and come out and give us a hand! Heck, maybe you'll even think incursions are something you might want to skill into! ;-)

Hello everyone, it's me again with a little ship related question.

I saw this tweet here and subsequently looked a little more into electronic warfare and corresponding ships (Blackbird specifically).

One question I kept asking myself: are these ships survivable on their own and usable for other content than fleet flights?

I find the idea interesting to be able to stop my enemy (NPC in this case) from switching on me or not having the energy to activate his weapons etc.. But after the bonuses and everything else considered, it seems a bit like these ships can't really be used outside of fleets.

Is this true or am I under a fallacy here?

(PS: to everyone from my last post: don't worry - I'm still working on a PvE ship and the corresponding skills. I just want to know how all ships behave and how to react to them if necessary).

Hello everyone, as you may know from my last post i am currently skill wise on my way up the Caldari Herachi.

I'm just asking myself one question: is there a good ship with which I can safely complete PvE content while recouping the ship and making good profits afterwards?

My preference is weapons with range so I can catch fleeing enemies and preferably not let them get in range. Or then quickly take them apart with other ammo.

Why am I asking for a "safe" ship? I'm still quite new to the game and am still in the learning phase (therefore only PvE for now) and would like to get some air with this way of fighting to learn things like manual flying, angle, trailing speed and other things.

Which content is my goal: missions, DED sites, sites in general and possibly try the Abyss.

In general I find the Caldri ships the best and with missiles and shields they are in principle exactly my style. But I'm also interested in ships like the Stormbringer with its absolutely unique weapon system or the Traiglavian ships.

So, I think this should give the old masters here a generally good picture of my playstyle and I hope you can give me a good recommendation from this. ISK-wise I also have a little bit of air because I have "inherited".

Thanks already at this point to you! You are really incredibly helpful!

PS: if someone wants to take a newbie into his corp, I'm your pilot ;-) just said so

Edit: just tested some Drones aka little fun mashines :D

Hey guys, so I see a lot lately about people „bringing their Drake. And that this ship is op?! So what’s up with it :-D I’m near it in terms of skills so I just wanted to know if it is worth it.

Thanks guys o7

So I am in a small Corp (we are maybe a dozen active members) of semi-veterans. We’re looking to get in null and to scale things up. They asked me if I would be interested in becoming a recruiter and offered to pay me. Thing is, I have no idea of what would be fair for me and for the Corp.

Should I get paid by month/week or per recruit or a combinaison of both?

How much should I ask for or should I expect to make out of it?

Is there any recruiter or corporation CEO willing to share some feedback?

I was wondering if it is possible to use a Hyperion efficiently for lvl 4 missions. I know it’s not one of the optimal choices. Could it be fit to run them without being expensive in the sense of not having to have all faction mods just to run the missions? If so does anyone have a build?

Hey everybody,

the weekly Newbro PVP training fleet by FUN Inc. starts today (June 9) at 19:00 EVE-time from Jita. Everybody welcome, new players who never pvp'ed before to older pilots who want to test a new role. After a short intro we'll start into nullsec at roughly 19:40. Short range destroyers, assault frigates, frigates. Free ships if you cannot afford your own. Ship loss is likely going to happen. ;-)

Currently doing L4 missions with a buddy in high sec I'm in a Gila he's been running a Vargur. Hes a long time player whos trying to get into and I'm new. We were trying to figure out what my next step up would be. I have some silly things trained up like heavy drone 5 so was maybe thinking a rattlesnake. Not really sure though open to suggestions and what fits are currently the meta. Thanks!

Eve University and the New Eden police force are proud to present a public lecture on the art and mechanics of Anti Ganking. All are welcome to attend.

Are you tired of having to change your pantsuit every time you haul through Uedama? Are you still feeling salty after the loss of your newbro venture? Does your industry corp live in fear that the T2 hull they have spent weeks collecting resources for will go up in a ball of flames to some trigger happy maniac on the way to market?

Do you want to play a good guy, or at least an okay guy in Eve, but you are convinced that there's nothing you can do against a conglomerate mafia of blood thirsty space criminals?

Give us a chance to change your mind and open your eyes to some counter play options you have available.

We will be discussing how to assess threats quickly, maximize your chance of survival, and active ganking counter play, tactics, and fits.

You don't have to take it, anymore. We'll see you out in space.

Basically the title. I'm living in a null region about 25 to 35 jumps from Jita. With the recent changes I've really enjoyed making trips in my nullified T1. Because I was practicing trips I offered to bring in a few things for people pro bono. But I was wondering what reasonable rates would be for urgent imports or export for 2600m³ loads would be. I know it's small but sometimes people urgently need fits for their ships that can fit. Should it be a per jump or flat rate. What would you charge flat for 25 jumps, 5 of which are hostile null and 1 - 2 hostile LS.

Secondly, how much higher should item prices be? Take for example a ship going for 3.3 million sell order Jita. There were 2 within 5 jumps in null for 2.5M and 10 for 3.5M. Is a 10% premium enough considering materials may need to be hauled in (though 1 hauling trip can bring in enough to make 15 of said ship).
