Warfare & Tactics

So, this is an alt that have been sitting for a while to just work as a contractor when it was used.

She was made Caldari but I want to join Gallente for FW, does this matter?
I do know I can skill and fly whatever, but does it matter what faction she was created as?


I am aiming for gallente, my main is a gallente drone-boat user and I feel home within gallente ships.
I have never tried hybrid turrets more then just basic skills and basic fitting,
Curious what the other ships bring to a fight, besides the vexor/myrm/dominix combo.
I have only flied a few selected ships so far and thats why I want to try out others at this character.
My main is out in null and wont leave alliance/corp or location.

Interested in trying out FW (not for the cash but for the experience)

Should I aim for frigates and skill them up, aim for cruisiers/destroyers or so?
it dont matter what I fly, as long as I get decent ammount of action.
I have no idea where to start and this character got the basic skills so far, I can train whatever.

So to keep it simple, train gallente frigates (heard droners are not to good thou)
Join FW of my choice, pew pew?
Question, frigats and destroyers, can they fight in the same system?
I do know there is frigates -> cruisers -> somethingsomehing -> all around if I remember correctly.

Guess I can start with novice plexes until I can fly a t2 frigate. ;)
Will be interesting to actually fight in the frigates, have not done that since the first days, and even then I only used them to mine.

Considering the nature of pirates I am not sure if I want to jump directly into that as a soloer.
Might also need my other character to bring whatever ships and equipment to low from high for that.
Going frigates and slowly working up to cruisers, might be going pirate once I get some decent cruisers and skills to survive and do damage.
Problem is still thou, all the turrets around lowsec, not even sure if a cruiser can handle that or have no info on how it works.

Thanks for that information! As soon as I can sit and gun in my frigate im off to oblivion!

Should I just jump the NPC FWcorp to get started and search for a FW corp along the road or avoid the NPC corps all along?
People seems to have different oppinions about that.

if I just want pvp with an alt due to the position of the 2 characters?
Not having 2 accounts but alt-training enabled

Not sure if anyone will see this post here due to it covering a different thing.
Should probably make a new topic. but hey., cant spam.

Having bought all skillbooks I think I need its at least 70m isk and some training to do, but should go rather fast.
This is the build I have so far, not sure what to fit on the rest or switch, guns are really hard to fit. The build is thight right now, but that's because I have a few level 1 skills in training and it will be sorted out really soon. ;)

I bought the armor compensation skills but are curious if its even worth/will work with the current setup i have, or if I should skip training them altogether.

Please put me on a stake and tell me everything I done wrong!
I was curious why people went scrambler even with the shorter range, but is it because the warp dist cost ore energy/heavier on the cpu/powergrid/cap?

Why train all the skills again when you could join with your main?

Main is focusing on droneboats and various indy things, sitting in null and would be a huge hassle to get him back every now and then, also the standing-hits would make a huge impact on that character.

This way this character can focus on a different line of ships entirely, without the need to train other stuff on the side to work. :)
Also, having 2 characters with different playstyle makes it easier to set them up different without taking to much time to jump between whatever I want to do.

confirming, solid blaster fit, not as mighty as either the rail cursus or dual rep though in many situations.
