So on my other account i got my very first pvp kill last night!! I am having issues finding fights i prob spent about 2hours roaming low sec then ended up in null and got my first kill. Is there a place better for solo pvp, so im not roaming for hours looking for something to shoot. Some times ill go 7 jumps without seeing anyone in local.

Caldari/Gallente FW space is pretty good for soloing in.

Area around Sahtogas is better.

If you ever find yourself in Verge Vendor, specifically Hevrice, Jovainnon, Melmaniel, Muetralle, Costolle and going back towards Essence - Aeschee, Adirain, Onne, Hulmate, Vifrevaert, OMS, Heyd - that neck of the woods you'll almost always find some Tuskers and we'll give you some solo ~gudfites~.

Go into faction warefare space. Go into a small or novice plex, preferably in a system with many people in local and just wait a few minutes... sooner or later someone will pay you a visit.

Coming from the guy who shoots harpies with phased plasma and who never ever flies solo...

He just wants you to give his fleet free killmails. You will not get solo fights in plexes.

Zero zero space.

Im playing with the idea of sticking a few cloakies in upgraded systems out in null and just etting them sit idle cloaked and every once in a random while getting a quick gank on a ratter or missioner.

Null is good for roaming though once you get past their camps but you need a fast mobile ship that hits hard and fast. T3 is best. Kill, move to another region fast, kill. . . The downside is bubble camps, their blobs, and the anti-pvp early warning system - local chat.

I would say beware systems with loads in local!
Too big a chance of OGB alts.
Instead find a patch of quieter, no station FW systems or a chain of pipe FW systems, and start plexing!
That way you will have time to access the ship and pilot when they show up on scan.
By the time they show up at the gate of the plex, you have time to decide whether it's a fight you should take or not.
But don't be too cautious. Take as many as you can. You'll be making enough to cover your losses, and you'd be surprised how many you thought you'd lose and actually win.
And even if you lose, close low structure fights are always the best - even if you lose!
And finlly, always 'GF' in local (Win or Lose) and see if they wanna chat about the fight and fits.
Best way to learn!
Fly it like you stole it!

Roam around Metro. If you avoid the stacked systems (Hado, Eszur, etc.) there's a good chance you'll find the odd pilot looking for the same thing as you.

OP, Gallente/Caldari Faction Warfare zones are perfect for solo pvp. Lots of pilots out and about in frigates and Dessie's. Albeit many of the frigates will be stabbed plexing ships, but there are still those looking for pvp too. Something that is also very crucial to getting a solo fight is being in a ship that your opponents think they can beat. Make them confident. This means no pirate frigates, no T2 Frigs sitting in a plex, or Griffins. All those will warrant a blob. My suggestion is to fly an Atron or Incursus. Both are very strong brawlers and are often underestimated.

Good luck Pirate

Delve is pretty good right now, your chances of getting blobbed to **** are pretty much the same as they are anywhere else (LOL FW Space).
