Is there any KoS-list without my name already?

Mine. I really don't care enough about you to put you there...

CVA cares about me, so i think i can move along even without your 6-member-FW-corp-KoS-list-entry.

Not all of them.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.

Hard to believe that four weeks have passed already! How do I feel? Fantastic but a bit unfocused at the moment as I don't feel that I'm pointing in any one direction. I captured two complex in Gallente space yesterday but other than that, I haven't participated in the war at all lately. Mining in Null/Worm space is less of a priority now that I have 950K m3 of ore sitting in my hanger waiting to be processed. My net worth is 500M ISK but that's mostly on paper and I'm still kill-less...

I'm happy where I've gotten but know that this isn't exactly the right path...close but it needs work.

Don't process the ore. Sell it as it is unless you plan on building with it. You'll get more ISK from the raw ore then you will if you process it without the proper skills.

I'm in the process of researching-up blueprints to make my own ships to help myself in FWs. The long term goal is to move to LowSec but I don't want to have to make supply runs so I want to be mostly self sufficient.

Something I've heard of people doing in the past but don't know if it's really viable for ya, buy a cruiser, fly it in to your home station, reprocess it and get the materials from it to build a bunch of hulls. I've never done it but I heard of people doing it. Just a thought.

Neat idea....I'll have to run the numbers (one day).

That takes care of some of the minerals you can't supply via lowsec mining (I would think, not sure you can get zyndrine easily).

Switching from version 7 to 10 so limited flight-time today.

Yesterday was (surprise) filled with grabbing more ore...passed the 1/4 billion mark !

More later today or tomorrow...

Wow! This conversation has been informative and entertaining. As a new capsuleer myself, I've been taking notes Smile . Tell me, is FW really worth all the hassle? Seems like it's been pretty rewarding for you.

I think this has the makings of a good holofilm. Strong character, family pride, moral quandaries, overwhelming odds, and lots of kills. All big sellers planetside I hear. Never let a market go wanting and whatnot.

"Faction Warfare" as many call it is a distraction given to capsuleers by the Great Empires. If we are busy fighting in Low-Sec space, than the Empire's territories never actually get touched. Think of FW not as a great cause, but as a way to prove loyalty to your faction, if you have one. But, you will never actually gain anything. The only place you can stake a claim yourself is Null-Sec.

I will say however, that FW is a quite good training ground for those newly initiated into the capsuleer program.

Some call me insane. If the universe is sane, then I embrace that label.

Cheap Firetails and R.F. rounds.... Aside from that, what Karina said. It's merely war games for when "that day" comes. Whether it's "that day" with an empire or a coalition is rather irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

I think FW is great as it does so many things.

  1. Brakes the stigma/fear of LowSec
  2. Teaches you the basics (quickly) of what to do and not to do if you want to survive down there.
  3. You can earn not bad LP doing defensive complexes
  4. You can earn amazing LP doing offensive complexes
  5. Makes you look around at other regions, plan paths and use resources
  6. You really start to think about ships and skills. How they work together and how to get better faster.


FW showed me very quickly that life in LS is actually really not that bad and way more lucrative/interesting than in HS. You need to fly smarter but the reward is rather nice when you pull something off.

As somebody mentioned here early on, LowSec is all about the fight or flight instinct. That is very true but really, it's not that bad at all.

I hope to move there one day actually as it's nice and quiet down there Lol

If you have any specific questions, the folks here have been great with tips and advice and if that fails, I'll try a stab at it.

Hmm...so basically a way to keep capsuleers on the hook without any of it amounting to much. That's what I call a bureaucracy!

But, as everyone's been saying, you get stuff so that's a plus. And I will have to get down to LS eventually, so I might as well be prepared. Who knows? Maybe I'll eventually find a quiet corner to call my own down there, too.

I wonder what the social scene's like down there? Parties? Gatherings? Get togethers? One can't live by the capsule alone, y'know.

Gather with mates who flew with you some time ago and get drunk. That's the extent of a social gathering you will get in Lowsec, usually.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

Seconded, majority of people in my corp came from Scope Works, and I also occasionally fly with a Hash guy or two and do the same....

Still dealing with the OS7 to OS10 switch so no report today other than to say that in Veld and Plag, the two ores my miner friend seems to like, I'm now pushing well past 400M in ISK value...and the sad thing is now I don't even try to hide my actions and don't care if there are 3 hulks in a field...if there are cans about, I take them.

Oh well....Roll
