I recently gotten on to Factional Warfare and believe me it's a lot different from my old days of mining, mission running, indy stuff. Course today I had a massive headache from losing ships left and right yesterday (Sunday) and by the time the dust and smoke cleared I was near broke LOL!! But, my corp is teaching me, they are showing me the ropes on how to pvp, they are showing me the little things I haven't used or noticed before such as scanning complexes, how to narrow it down so I can find somebody on a gate and else where.

This to me is part of why I came back, not only to be a pirate or mercenary, but to learn about other areas of Eveonline and all of it's wonders.

Yes well, you're Caldari, so you are bound to get blown up...Blink

Congrats on expanding your horizons. PvP is much more fun and adrenelin pumping than other pursuits in the game and if you are anywhere between Ladistier, OMS, Heydieles and up through Deven/Abune towards Tama at the moment, then you have lots of opportunity to kill and be killed.

Good job on finding yourself in a rather tasty part of the game.

You can pull solo, small gang, and so on. And don't let the haters hate...Caldari is where it's at, bro.

I have blown a billion in frigs across three accounts in a week's time. But don't give up hope.

Keeping fitting, keep dying, fit some more, and then one day you will be able to bittervet and snark post like everyone else.

Happy hunting, and congrats on breaking the PVE/PVP barrier.

Once you realize what a joke everything is, being the comedian is the only thing that makes sense.

welcome to PvP .


3 tips I would say is

1. learn the ships most ships are set up the similar and stone are squasher when withers some have higher dps some will kite.

sounds like a lot but thou will pick it up really quick.

2. try different ships and tactics. what is good for one person doesn't mean it's good for you it all depends in play style.

3. Don't be afraid of some ships like the dramial for instance. they seem to scare people on my FW alt I destroyed one that jumped me in a plex and I was in an atron. refer to tip one now the ship's
