I've got Logi 5, most relevant support skills 5, and a shiny new Scimitar. I noticed TVP has some sort of Logi school, but it appears to run during USTZ business hours. I popped into Lv6 a few times but have so far not gotten an invite. Anyone else do shield Logi training these days?

Hey, my mate have been talking about incursions alot, so I figured I throw a few questions in here and hear if you can help with some enlightenment.

I am training toward a Mach atm, but it's too late to switch around for a better boat, if needed be.

How much do a average setup cost, module wise ?

And how often do incursion groups switch flteet fittings ?

Hi. Basic incursion fit (T2 guns, C-type invul + faction gyros + TEs + T2 rigs) will cost you close to 3 bil. (ship included).
Recomended setup (T2 gunz + A-type invul + Shadow Serpentis TCs + Shadow Serpentis SEBOs + faction gyros and TEs + deadspace MWD + T2 rigs) will cost you up to 6,5 bil.
As a mach pilot you will be using 1400s 90% of times.
You will be switching fits mostly when upgrading from VGs to HQs (that includes switching one SEBO for MWD and in some communities 1 TC for Shield Extender)

Probably in this place someone has to explain/remind to new players - those 3-8bil fits aren't requirement to join most incursion fleets and often T2 guns and tank with T1 rigs are fine (just not too convenient in terms or capacitor use / speed / tank).

LipBite is correct there are many ways to fit up a Mach cheaply but I would say this is the minimum you need to get into a fleet safely.

[Machariel, Minimums]
7x 1400mm Howitzer Artillery II (Republic Fleet EMP L)
Large Shield Transporter II

2x Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
Sensor Booster II (Scan Resolution Script)

Tracking Computer II (Tracking Speed Script)

Damage Control II
4x Gyrostabilizer II
2x Tracking Enhancer II

Large Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer II
2x Large Core Defense Field Extender I

5x Warrior II
4x Garde II

[Statistics - Goldiiee]

[Implants]

Additional changes might be recommended from the FC for your safety, or for the benefit of the fleet.

Things that keep me up at night;  Why do we use a voice communication device to send telegraphs? Moore's Law should state, Once you have paid off the last PC upgrade you will need another.

I should have mentioned 800s work just as well but go through a lot more ammo, and you don't need the PG implant.

Being a dedicated solo player, I do have a question for the community.

I have done all of the SCOUT sites in my Hurricane, most of them, there were other guys around, but 6 or 8 of them I did alone (piece of cake).

Given, that for those sites a fleet of 3 to 5 ships are reccomended, I was thinking of fitting my Maelstrom with 425mm Auto Cannons II (tracking 0.1) and taking on the Nation Commander Outpost mission solo (only frigates as per EVE-survival), for which 5 to 10 ship fleets are reccomended (BC, HAC and so on)

I can get my Mael to 73k EHP, 76/64/73/77 resist (shield) and 510 DPH without drones (currently Warrior Is, but tomorrow it´ll be warrior IIs)

Now the question: Do I have a chance to make it or will I get my ass handed to me 90%+ of the time?


PS: I am willing to risk my BB if there is a good chance to make it, but if the consensus around here is that there is no way in hell, I´d rather not try it, given there will be a crapton of scrambling frigates around Blink

You will die 99.999999% of the time solo - NCO's need fleets. Scout sites are a joke IMHO and should be ignored

Join one of the channels in the OP, talk to the people there, fit your ship as needed and join a fleet. Can be a pain to get there but worth it.

Thanks for the tip, but no.

As I said, I´m a dedicated solo player. I just won´t join a fleet.

Yes, I know, it is not the way EVE is supposed to be played, but it is the way I get fun out of EVE, and so it is the way I play Big smile.

I answered this in a previous post,
But to save you time there's the link. I was using an NMC as an example there but all the VG sites apply similar damage and will reduce any ship without fleet support to a pod in a matter of seconds.

Oh boy, I expected it to be dangerous, "extrapolating" form the scout sites.

Obviously, I was - waaaaaaaay off, LOL.


Thanks for the heads up.
