I’m not looking for anyones coveted secret fittings/configurations. I’m just more curious about what people mostly use to PVP solo or fleet and if you change out the ship type if you’re killing in Empire or low sectors. I’m going to assume that most solo PVP is frigate based, but I am a new player and I’m probably wrong.

I prefer Amarrian Cruisers and Battlecruisers for General PVP.

Thanks for everyones replies. I like the look of the Harbinger but I started Gallente, so I guess I should at least train to a point where I'm using those ships. I don't want to cross train too early.

I don't always PVP, but when I do, I prefer Thrashers.

Also, hurricanes and arbitrators because I am poor and terribly cross-trained.

During fleet ops; Scimi/Guardian mostly, sometimes I have to fly pew ships too, but I try to avoid it since I think repping is more fun and challenging than F1 primary. Really wish I could bring an onerios since it looks neat imo, but I'd rather have ship reimbursement than troll my fc.

Solo and on roams; Talos, whatever is hanging around my hangar that needs to explode. I have a very low probability of coming back from these roams alive anyway.

I fly solo alot.

So depending on the targets I pick to go after will determine what I fly.

Right now though, I am loosing a few Thorax cruisers to see what I can kill with it.

Anything with a Thorax Hull and I'm falling in love with the Talos. Also the proteus, if I ever get a stable income to constantly field one.

I'll fly Gallente still, through any death through any nerf until EVE dies. Long live blasters and woe onto those who get within web range.

Oh and hurray drones.

Solo I like Vagabond/Dramiel or another fast ship.


Duo or Trio I like to run battlecruisers or HACs.


In fleets I like 2-3 logi with Battlecruisers/Battleships.

I tend to fly the ones with the huge targets painted on the side :(

If you see minmatar or Amarr BC's with a target on it please wave instead of shooting !!
