Skill Discussions

so... i'd like to try FCing for Rvb.

what skills will i need? i'm planning to double-train so if it could be within 30 days could be fantastic.

let's stick to frigs, if i manage to do it well, will think about plexing another 30 days for cruisers.

this is the first draft, but i think i miss lot of skills and is probably inefficient.

can plug +3s but i'd hate to remap to save an hour or two.

Warrior I x1

what are your opinion? i think i miss lot of support skills and gunnery, but i'm not sure how to prioritize... maybe ditch the racial frigs 4?

i'd love to hear any input.

aaaand nevermind, i'll use this http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Recommended_skills_for_new_players as a starting base. much better than what i've came up with.

it is 19 days, i'll add leadership5 and maybe a wing command or two.

what else will i need?

yes, that i undestrand.

and it will take some practice. and what better than Rvb to die and learn?

but rolling a new alt for the pourpouse, what shuld it be trained with to better accomplish this goal? i guess leadership 5 is a starter, but then?

To FC for RvB all you need is to know how to form a fleet ingame and the basic fleet commands.


That said, you could also just participate in a couple of RvB fleets which would likely answer all your questions a lot better than this thread ever will.

Or you could just do a quick search on the RvB homepage and read the threads in this subsection!
