Hello! I am relatively new to EvE, and I started down the Amarr line. After a couple of turns, I found out that I really love driving the Augoror, and logistics cruisers in general.

I was wondering if there is someone out there who operates in mostly high-sec, that would like to do some missions together. I've done some duo missions with other people a little, but I am looking for someone that I could have a fun time with, and hopefully get batter at piloting my Logi cruisers!

((Sorry if I posted in wrong section, as I stated above, I am relatively new))

-- Thanks, JaFar

Hello JaFar and welcome to Eve,

Since this is the sub-forum 'Missions & Complexes', this is indeed the right place to post your thread.

Logistics is definitely an essential part of all types of Fleet action. Course as it is with most everything, specializing on being highly skilled in that career path will make you a valuable asset. Gaining some experience by doing missions with other players is a good way to start but I suggest you also do a Google search for info pertaining to operating Logistic ships in Eve. That should give you lot's of insight on piloting tactics, ship fitting and various 'Tricks Of The Trade' to help you quickly become very efficient in Logistics.

Hopefully there's some players in your NPC Corp to run some missions with, doesn't hurt to ask in Corp chat. Also I'm sure there's plenty of player Corporations in the sub-forum Alliance & Corporation Recruitment Center that would gladly welcome a Logistics player. I caution you to take your time and do some research on various corps first before joining one. Check out the Corp history, type of content they engage, their location, plans for the future, days and time they are most active, etc. Spend some time flying and talking with them to get better acquainted.

One of the big ISK making careers in Eve is running Sansha Incursions and Logistic ships play a large role in it. Sansha Incursions is Fleet based PvE content against NPC's. There are also various Corps that do PvP Gang Roams in Low Sec and of course there's the large scale Alliance battles in Null Sec.

So yeah, definitely do some research and check out all the various opportunities available for a Logistics career here in Eve.

Good luck to you. May you have a long and rewarding career.

Welcome to EVE!

I would just like to add a note of caution: be careful of who you choose to do your missions with. Some people will pretend to be kind to you just to lure you into a situation where their friends came come help destroy your ship and you won't be able to escape. Don't fly in anything too expensive with a complete stranger :)

You might look into one of the new player friendly incursion groups if you like flying log. Such as Warp To Me.

Don't be afraid to fleet with someone. They can't legally attack you if you do.

Just make sure you have 'safety' on green in case they try to trick you into aggressing them first. For example, if they ask you to web them into warp and you get a warning msg -- you just learned what kind of player they are. :)


Edit: Noticed Michael posted the incursion suggestion above.
