FW lowsec fails means what exactly? If your implying FW has bad pilots, sure we (I am amarr militia) have some but there are bads everywhere. FW has some of the best individual/small gang pilots in game. Also has some of the best and most creative FCs there are. All the haters have clearly never lived in FW for a lengthy time to experience it.

The OP wants to be able to login and get fights straight away, whilst FW is lowsec mostly (there is a highsec side to it) it is the best PvP for jump in and get quick fights in eve nothing else compares.
Highsec - lack of targets and lack of good fights
Non FW lowsec - can spend hours looking for a viable fight only to get baited and blobbed
Wormholes - proper WH pvp revolves around intel which is time consuming
Sov Null - blobs farmers renters
NPC Nullsec - only comparable area to FW with people actually there for fights
Pirating FW areas - probably most targets you can get in the game, as long as you don't blue tons f the militias, aka suddenly + winmatar

Hey there, might want to try this:

When your corp is formed; go to the corp menu, wars -> all wars and check the only assistance request thingy (At work, so don't know how it's called exactly).

Than go ahead and offer your assistance to all wardecced corps/alliances for free (<- important, many corps just scam this to get some easy isk, so if you charge you won't get many targets)

Fly in small, cheap fleets with friends or friends to be and you'll do just fine.

Station games, offgrid boosting, alt reps and the whole shebang isn't required at all.
In fact, it just slows you down and detracts from the fun. Also if you win a fight due to those extra tools, you still won't have the 100% satisfaction a real fight brings Cool

In any case, remember it's a game and you are trying to have fun. ( I hope)

If you are looking for fights, wardec some merc corps. Best option for hisec.

Break-a-Wish, Pendulum of Doom, MAD, Marmite... they will all fight.... and give you a run for your money.


You left us out, we'll fight all day if that's what you want, the never ending engagement is what we strive for.

Baw, doom and mad will fight but marmite will show numbers to kill a solo person and then run from a fleet engagement, options must be weighted and looked at proper when picking up a war. History of the target and the targets goals as a corp/alliance are key factors in the quality of PvP you'll get from them.

MERC WITH A MOUTH, Send me DPS and my fleet will double it back! Special offer!

So marmite just has to get involved in every forum war I have now? Are you serious with following me around with every post I make with Sol nub epoch's forum alt miko jin? Since when do I answer to marmite for any of my corps wars? If your a client your separated from the marmite crap, but if your gonna be marmite all the type and attempt to police my posts all the damn time, the Rubicon deal will be off.Whatever your choice..


What are you rambling about now, Saeger? Shocked

Try to give advice to this fellow or just don't come here boasting crap, please.
And don't tell me a client paid you to come stroke your ego in this thread, it wouldn't make sense.
Also, to expose your blatant lies; http://p0wnd.nl/kb/?a=home has some nice fleetfights everywhere in space.
If you are so sure of your lies, let's test it out huh?
I'll hire you to wardec Marmites instead Twisted

Oh know scary marmite. 50 million isk mmm big spender.

See you can get fights by posting the truth up to people who won't see the light. Forsaken asylum gives great fights as well and they were left out.

Thank you very much for this idea... I didn't know we could just assist like that.
I was trying to justify the costs for Wardec's and how to fund it, that would fix all of that.

1. Content - FCs + Fleets for your members
2. SRP - Ship Replacement Program, even if it's just t1 frigs, any corp can provide even the most basic of SRPs
3. Delagate - CEOs cannot do everything, they think they can, they make others believe they can, but they need lieutenants.
4. Incentives - encourage members to PvP.

Get together a merry band and join FW. I'd suggest Gal or Caldari Militias. Dont believe all the propoganda doled out by the trolls. You'll get fights, develop synergy, test tactics, etc.

Plus - in FW you tend to use smaller hulls. Really comes down to getting a reliable crew and actually flying together - especially if you want to be effective in the small gang arena.

I'd also suggest you commit to living in low sec and not be a scare bear. Committing will test ur steel and allow you to get to know an areas habits and haunters.

Above all else - have fun.
