Hey there,

I'm also a new player getting into Fw solo pvp.
I have injected 27 million SP into relevant frig pvp skills, specifically into missikes/rockets. I've been following a modified version of Suitonias kestrel build: it's basically extended shield, ballistic, override, single Web etc etc.. all tech2. .. however I've lost about 20 kestrels and earning only 2 kills. I'm absolutely gutted and becoming discouraged. As far as my piloting skills go, I'm OK, managing to stay out of brawler range when appropriate, or staying close during beam or rail gun fights... I always lose.

Keeping in mind all my SP in missiles/rockets.... what's an alternative frigate that I could use for faction warfare solo pvp that will be successful? I've seen the condor fit above and will look into this, but are there any other options also? Hook bill maybe?

Or should I persevere with the Kestrel and work through my mistakes?

Thanks!



I have highlighted your mistakes.
In spite of all the crying on the forums EVE still is not pay to win. Player skill tops injected SP. You seem eager to learn. So acquire knowledge in the way most appropriate to you. Watch some videos, read some blogs, buy some ships and try different fittings. But don't make this experience unnecessary expensive in using the "best" stuff. T1 hulls and equipment are sufficient to learn how to avoid mistakes.

Maybe your definition of "relevant" skills is also a little off. The mastery stuff is just a rough guideline as to what might be needed.
