They are called "Combat" Recons for a reason right?

The latest patch made them very viable in a combat fit. Nicely bonused weapons and a very high resist profile allow for some crazy fits

Recorded a few fights in a combat Rook in Faction Warfare lowsec. Footage is too long to cut and use up for the next movie, so I decided to go with a commentary version

First time recording commentary so there are some kinks to work out. A proper studio microphone is on the shopping list for future videos

Hope you enjoy anyway!

As always, comments and feedback is very much appriciated

I enjoyed it. I seriously thought you was done for in that second fight, was pain staking to watch that garmur orbiting at 6000 m/s.

The second fight shows great decision making and cool head under pressure.

I thought it was pretty good considering you were in a 10mn AB cruiser.

I really didn't like your ASB management in the first fight. You never run the ASB on cap if you can run the other cap-free. Running ASBs on cap is exclusively for when you are waiting on the other one to finish its reload. This mistake completely cost you the entire fight and you don't point it out so that viewers don't make the same mistake.

Yea good point. I had no doubts in my mind that I wasn't going to make the reload anyway, and I have had bad experiences with saving it for the 2nd booster. (mainly due to not having the available cap due to neutralizers)

However looking back on it it might have actually saved me there

This is one of my favorite EVE videos. Ive watched it a few times.

You were unlucky with those Garmur's. They can really pin stuff down.

You music is very fitting and great. Top stuff

You commentary is also very good. It really helps explain the fight out.

Nothing I hate more than EVE music videos of gameplay with just music over the top. Commentary is much better. Esp when its good commentary. Btw your mic sounds fine.

I will be watching for your future videos. Smile

Enjoyed. Commentary instead of music is always a plus.
