Shows how observant I am Roll

Matari Exodus? When the hell did that happen?

Oh and yeah everyone starting out in PvP should read the guide, even if you've been in PvP a while there's probably tips in there that you've forgotten/never knew.

Good day:

This is excellent reading material no matter what pvp ship you want to learn how to fly.

Plus the Rifter Drifter blog is an excellent source to help increase your kill rate.

For example, I never thought of loading Null S on my Taranis until I read about the success rate for Wensley's Ishkur.

Since then, I've solo'd more ships with less damage and greater success than before I knew that little tidbit.

Thank you.

The fundamentals and philosophies introduced and discussed rather thoroughly can actually be applied to all races/types of ships.

A MUST READ!! as well as a must bookmark for reference.

Lol I had a go in a Merlin recently, found a willing Enyo that barely could scratch me since he forgot his Null. Was p funny.

I never ever ever fly Rifters but I know what they can do and as others have said, regardless of what you fly, this is a great guide to the basics of pew pew and gets you perfectly equipped to start on the solo pew path ♥

I'm sure I posted in the old thread but I will here to.

This guide was invaluable to my start and continuing journey into the world of PVP. I salute Wensley and his RIFTAH POWAH.

I heard Wensley solo'd a Nyx in a rifter after writing this guide. True story.

Recently and inquiry raised the topic of the single best published guide.
Despite the wealth of excellent material from E-UNI, Goonswarm and others, the consensus was that this document and Skira Ranos' piracy guide were the two paramount documents.

Wensley, thank you for giving back to the community.

shameless bump to make the devs notice and give it sticky-wicky!

Thanks for writing this guide. I really enjoy Frigate PVP, but that may be more of an ISK issue.... Anyhow I went ahead and added a link to this thread in the Warfare and Tactics resources page on the EVElopedia.
