EVE General Discussion

Hello. 3 years ago i felt tired of pirating and wanted a new lease on EVE- but I found that ratting managed to push me to boredom and I quit the game because of it.

Now, I've recently started again due to Dust514 and friends taking interest in EVE. The problem is that I'm now on a -7.5 pirate, trapped in lowsec with no real semblance of how to play. I feel i can't even undock and setup my overview settings. I don't have my alts or a corporation to bring me goods, and I am very unsure in my ability to ninja rat.

I feel trapped and I don't even undock from my lowsec prison. What am I supposed to do? What can I do? I feel like quitting EVE again and I haven't even been playing more than a week.

Can someone please help me? I don't need isk or anything.. I don't know

Yeah, you're right the goods thing I should be able to fix. My third account has a prowler or whatever the cloaking haulers are called. MWD has a thanatos as well so I should be able to move stuff to a nearby area and clone jump and jump my thanatos..

There's tags I can buy to fix sec status?

you can take a pod, shuttle or fast frigate into hisec in relative safety.

Using tags can be expensive, use this to help you estimate the cost. https://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/sectags/ Keep in mind that through normal ratting, moving from -7.5 to -5.0 is slightly easier than going from -5.0 to -2.5.

Before spending hundreds of mil on tags, I would get a stealth bomber with torps, or failing that some cheap high dps cruiser or a cloaky t3, and try to get sec up the regular way. The standard method is to blow up one rat battleship per system (preferablay high value), then move to the next system, and continue for awhile, and watch your sec status go up. You can do this in lowsec, but you might have better results in nullsec. You should have empire access in no time.

If you have isk, you can probably just fly to molden heath or fw zones in a shuttle, and not worry about sec status at all.

Section "Organizing Your Screen Layout", step 2 details on how you can set up your overview without having to undock. There are plenty of guides out there on how to set-up your overview correctly.

Alternatively you can undock, create a few safe spots somewhere in space and then set up your overview. Have d-scan open and check for combat probes. If you see combat probes out just warp from safe to safe and you should be fine.

Hope this helps.

Clueless as usual and too stupid to look it up.
