Agony Unleashed is a PVP corp, specialising in small gang combat. We are currently deployed to Thera.

Agony was formed in 2006 and is a single-Corp Alliance with a strong cultural identity, focused on PVP self-improvement, both for the pilots in Agony as well as thousands of students that have been trained via the PVP University that Agony runs as a side project.

Agony has lived in almost every NPC Nullsec region from Venal to Great Wildlands, has briefly dabbled at Sov-holding in Providence (while it was a Fight Club back in 2010), tried a bit of Faction Warfare. More recently we have lived in Catch as part of the Hero Coalition, which gave us access to some large fights in addition to our staple small-gang combat.

We currently live in one of the four NPC stations in Thera. Due to the constantly changing exits Thera provides, we have the ability to raid a new area of space every day (usually Nullsec). This provides us with huge variety of targets; from large bloc fleets to highly skilled small gangs and from solo roamers to gate camps. As usual, we're running frequent small gang roams through whatever region takes our fancy on a given day. There are no mandatory ops to attend but there's almost always something going on!

The Agony Philosophy

- PvP is fun, enjoy it and don't be a jerk.
- PvP is a challenge, pay attention and fly smart.
- Honour your word - you stand to gain more by keeping it than you do by breaking it.
- There are no enemies, only opponents.
- If you're going to do something, aim to do it well.
- Knowledge should be shared, not hoarded - smarter opponents will force you to up your game.
- SP and Isk don't make you a better PVPer, they make you a better target.
- Winning through superior tactics is more satisfying than winning through superior numbers.

What does Agony offer?

Agony offers a strong social environment for like-minded pilots that like to pew spaceships. From solo, duo and decentralized fleets in cheap frigates and cruiser to 20+ person fleets with more advanced doctrines from HACs to Attack BCs or multi-timezone capital supported BS gangs. In our currently deployment we naturally focus on lighter, more agile ships in order to engage greater numbers and move quickly through regions but we've used all kinds of different doctrines in 2015 and will no doubt do the same in future.

Agony also offers active forums where fleet ideas, ship fittings and tactics are discussed and an extensive Wiki providing a repository of knowledge about many of Eve's game mechanics.

We have logistical services for our members to keep hangars full of ships and modules. This is particularly important as Agony has historically had a semi-nomadic culture of regularly basing from new areas in order to keep both the targets and the gameplay fresh.

Agony regularly competes in the Alliance Tournament with varying success, with our participating pilots always having a great time while doing so.

What is Agony looking for?

Agony looks for pilots that aim to excel in PVP and constantly improve their skills. We try to accept people that will fit into our corp culture but we have no real SP requirement, instead focusing on attitude, desire to PVP and willingness to improve. Agony pilots should be PVP focused, pro-active and willing to try new things.

Agony has a Trial period so that both parties can test out the waters and determine if the corp is a good fit for the individual. In this period we ensure that the Trial fits in with the corp socially and has, or is developing, passable PVP skills. We aren't looking for elite PVPers but some basic skill should be developed during the Trial by even the greenest of recruits. Conversely, the Trial period is for the individual to see whether Agony’s playstyle and culture are right for them.

In terms of activity levels, we are not a hardcore gaming corp and understand that real life is more important than EVE. That said, we do expect pilots to play with us regularly, particularly during the Trial so we can get to know them!
