My EVE

How many times have you pvp'ed in 0.0? How long have you lived in 0.0?
Are you just assuming these things?

Indeed. So, 2 points following this

1) What do you do when a Rapier decloaks near you?

2) It's interesting how you say that, because as we all know it takes quite a bit of skill to stay out of scram range of more than one opponent. In fact, it is nigh on impossible if there's more than about 3 scrams on the field.

So I ask: - given "nanofaggots" have to do a lot of work to minimize risk to their ship (and it remains high regardless) what skills do you need, pilot skills, to sit stationary and shoot other stationary targets?

What inputs as a player do you do that makes your victory or survival more likely? What are some common mistakes?

In the vids you have shown I could sit my 5 year old niece at the computer and relay instructions on what to do quite easily.

I think the skills displayed in this vid would translate really well to mission running and I don't think it would be too much of a step up that you couldn't make it.

i'm trying to help you. You could make like 60mil an hour.

c'mon man, I know it's scary but some missions even have a station in so you won't feel too out of your comfort zone.

It's not, since your logic doesn't translate. If the fight isn't going your way and you're scrammed there is no means of escape.

Just a few situations that can go wrong trying to kite:

- Slingshot landing on you
- Rapier (even if it only webs you for 5 seconds, that will be long enough to get scrammed)
- Other people landing with good warpins, and scrams
- A 2 day old hero Rifter, landing a scram and web (by the time you lock him back, the guy you were kiting got into his scram range)
- A tiny bit of lag making your range to target inaccurate
- The other guy jumping a link alt into the system and suddenly he's catching you

Things that can feasibly stop you docking at 4-4 in the videos seen:
- The enemy fleet suddenly getting 3x larger, and you having no warning on watchlists
- An orca undocks and you use it's fitting service to remove your plates before trying to ride out the aggro timer.

There is almost no risk at all doing this (and more importantly, that risk can be controlled as third parties can't get involved in damaging your ship, you can always perform a risk assessment).

You can de-aggro a Vindy with 3 guardians + LG slaves on it whilst being shot by 6-8k DPS ..there's no realistic risk.

You can keep telling me how you can avoid losses in lowsec, but the point is it takes actual skill to pull off, whereas sitting perfectly still takes no skill whatsoever.

Sad you had to be ex-Triumvirate :( we gone down a few notches..........

i lold irl

Mmmm, thanks for the free bumps.

Have my movie been on page 2 at all since i made this topic lol?

Of course it ******* does.

One requires you to interpret vectors in 3D space such that relative ranges will always stay above a certain margin, looking out all the time for factors that can change that balance, and the other requires NO INPUT AT ALL.

How can you possibly say sitting still and having no input at all is in any way difficult? You either have enough lolfagneutral Guardians, or you don't.

You know who your wartargets are, you know exactly what they are in and where they are. If you engage within a docking radius and lose ships you are flat out bad at the game.

The "risk" of >0.4 space is that any other person in any ship can become a factor and there's few ways of anticipating it.

Tell me what is so special about forever sitting stationary in a docking radius that makes it in any way risky? Also, tell me how it isn't less risky than outside of highsec.

There's little "special" about highsec PVP other than a very long list of special protections that you get there that you don't elsewhere.

You saying there are no more risks in low null is patently stupid because as you step down you add more unknown factors whilst always carrying over the risks of the previous space with you.
