You elitists should be ashamed of yourselves! You should be helping this poor guy in his time of need, not mocking him!

To the OP, firstly, missiles are only good against NPCs. What you want are projectile weapons. The bigger the better. Yes, I know, that large artillery cannon might be a little tough to fit, but trust me, that nasty overpowered Rifter would never know what hit him. Oh, and while you're using artillery cannons, you might be tempted to stay at long range, but that's only going to hurt your accuracy. You want to be as close to that rifter as possible.

I'd recommend you use civilian modules, but I see you've already done that. Good job! The less skill points spent on support skills, the more you can spend on your new large projectile turrets instead. Or turret. Don't worry, just one will do.

Make sure you fit a cloaking device too. You know those silly little stealth bombers? Try flying a huge stealth battlecruiser! That rifter will probably surrender just from seeing you decloak 2km away from him with your artillery cannon aimed vaguely in his general direction.

Don't forget your cargohold expanders. Every pirate I've talked to has regretted not having enough cargo space to pick up the precious loot left behind by their victims. With your artillery fitted stealth battlecruiser, you do not want to repeat their mistake!

...and while you seek revenge against that evil rifter, and anyone that dared to mock you in this thread, perhaps you could try hauling some PLEX to lowsec for massive profits?

With that kind of fit, it's a surprise the Drake didn't die sooner. Drakes aren't meant for Civ Shield Boosters. In fact, they're not designed for Active Shield Tanking of any kind. He'd be better off with more Large Shield Extenders and Shield Rechargers than any kind of Civ-module. Miura Bull (the guy who killed the Drake) actually did the poor ship a favour.

If you can't fit a Drake properly, you're not ready to exact revenge at all. Go train some skills to actually improve your tank before you try again.

This thread still make me smile. The chat logs were sexy. The drake loss action was HOT.

"Ooooh baby I've got something to put in you. Take the heat!"
"No! Not in my drake!"

3x civvie shield booster? Dude, a rifter should have never done damage to you.. you just need a little bit smarter of a fit!


a little bit?? Op needs a hella lot smarter fit.

To op, did you even search or look around fits for drake? Your fit is very poor either for pve or pvp. I'd suggest trying pvp in a smaller/less expensive ships, but if u like drakes then so be it. But do check fits in battle clinic next time. You don't have to follow them, but it gives a nice framework for you to work with.

And the pirates you heard about are not the same as what you were killing in low sec.


I seriously, seriously suggest you do the following:

1> Put an app in for Eve Uni (or other training corps) -- Do that today
2> Ditch the higher tier ships for frigates. Not only is that cheaper, but also quicker to train up to fly well.
3> As already suggested.. check battleclinic for fittings advice for your chosen frigate.
4> Specialise in flying frigates before moving on.
5>If you want revenge... follow the steps above and dont't give up.

Lastly... being a noob isn't shameful... it's the inability to learn that is shameful.

Oh dear, oh dear. At first I thought you was bait. Then I thought you was a troll. Now I am of the belief you are a just a bit angry and lost in this game.

He's a new player... leave him alone now.

Anyone can get on the bandwagon and laugh at the fit and the fact that his Drake lost against a Rifter.
Easy to do.

At least he had the guts to 1, get into low, and 2, ask for help and advice in the forums despite his loss. Give him that much credit.

MOST players wont even get into low but instead be mining or trading in high.

OP,just take five and move on. You will be much better equipped to deal with this game now that you know what Eve's all about. And the guy who killed you well,lets just say he knows what he's doing.

I love you btw Miura Bull.... I'm really more angry at the OP for never being able to understand how much of a honor it is to be solo killed by you.



Its like the 16th chapel janitor being mad at micheal angelo for taggin up his church.

I can't help but feel people are making fun of me in here. As for pasting chatlogs, that just stinks. Talk about kicking a man when he is down. I am sure if you was in my position and had lost their ship that they just spent an afternoon prepping and making sure it was good to go stolen from you like that you would have been agnry too. I cant hold sway of all I said in the chat let us just say emotions were high to record what I said is evil though.

*le sigh*


You're just getting that we are making fun of you? Could that be because you never did enough research to understand that using a warp scrambler/disruptor to keep you from warping isn't a hack or a cheat?

I'm willing to cut you a little slack since you're a new player and all, but there are regions of space with varying levels of security for a reason. Also, you are consenting to getting your ship blown up when you click "Undock". Doesn't matter if it's in highsec, lowsec, or null. If someone wants to destroy your ship, they will...one way or another.

This is a game bro. It's also not Hello Kitty online. You will get your ships blown up and your stuff stolen via scams if your dumb enough. Sometimes it'll be for a reason, and sometimes there'll be no reason at all. EVE is considered one of the most hardcore MMO's out on the market for a reason. It's shady, it's seedy, and when your stuff is gone it's really gone. CCP isn't giving it back unless there is a damn good reason. My advice to you is to harden the f*** up, take your loss as a learning experience, join a good player corp, and have fun.

It's an important point to you've made there... that should be emphasized... NO ONE IS SAFE IN EVE... even in high Sec... too many times i've seen miners feel safe in a high sec system, and yet not do the basics that could 'help' protect themselves (like checking local and overview, aligning out, etc).

Treat eve like real life... don't drop your guard...

Thank you OP. Reading all this took hours away from work! Please feel free to shed your tears on this forum in the near future:)

Seriously though,

I am new to Eve, been playing a couple weeks. I decided to try Eve because i heard it was the best MMO for PVP. And it is! But thats the thing, I'm not sure this is for you. This entire game is PVP-centered. Personally, I have undocked and flown many a punisher into lowsec with the intention of getting blown up and learning a thing or two. Eve is all about losing ships, so I really don't think you should be playing this game... unless you realize that you will eventually blow someone else up, which is what its all about, for me anyways.

i can't understand what is so bad here. If i see a solo Drake ratting in low, i'd definitely engage him. What's wrong with this?Pirate
