Getting to know your ship

Let’s just face it. Eve is a game with boatloads of community generated literature. The game is vast and deep and new (or potential) players need all the help they can get in order to get themselves rolling as quickly as possible. For me this  has been most apparent coming from a radio station that even though caters to EVE Online on occasion is not solely dedicated to the game, as a lot of non-eve players who express interest about the game ask more and more questions.

And as such I decided to write an introductory guide for all the new players out there (hey we love the newbies) regarding their first steps in spaceship mayhem.

Free Skill Injection – Part 2

A Guide for New Players

Recently we had a few new members join our ranks. Now there are many nice guides for new players out there, but quite a few months ago I took the time to write down some points for leveling up during your first few weeks that turned into a bigger guide in time, and then it grew even bigger and bigger… so I thought I’d refine it and share it with the community. So here it is.

Here is a link to Part 1

This is Part 2. Part 3 will follow soon ™.

Free Skill Injection – Part 1

A Guide for New Players

Recently we had a few new members join our ranks. Now there are many nice guides for new players out there, but quite a few months ago I took the time to write down some points for leveling up during your first few weeks that turned into a bigger guide in time, and then it grew even bigger and bigger… so I thought I’d refine it and share it with the community. So here it is. Parts 2 & 3 will follow soon ™.

EvE Universe Rule(s):

1. Never fly what you cannot afford to lose
2. NEVER fly whey you CANNOT afford to lose
3. NEVER FLY A SHIP YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE
4. Never …
5. …you get my point

Please leave a comment if you liked the guide and suggestions / improvements are always welcome.

Thoughts on using plates… or not! – Take 2

Luminus said to me yesterday: “Oh my – what a fail post did you do?! So much wrong info you go in there it makes me want to eat Fedos for breakfast just to get my stomach straightened”

Granted, the first post had some bad information and calculations – but the theory is there, the practice shows us that this is the way to go vs Sleepers, so I had to dig deeper and actually learned quite a few on how Resistances / Tanking works ;-)

So sometimes you post, or sometimes you post, you get feedback, you edit, you get more feedback, admit you are a total newb, cry for hours and then repost…

Major thanks goes out to gsputi from battleclinic.com forums and our very own Vessper (/bow) and Luminus for their feedback and comments.

Battleclinic.com threads:

Proteus Class 5-6 Utility Ship

Armor Tanked RR Wormhole Fleet Raven

If you are looking into ways to maximize your fleet effectives vs Sleepers, I hope you find this post useful. If you do, please do post a comment :-)

——- Updated Post follows:

The question we need to answer is:

Effective HPs by adding Buffer tank? – or by increasing your Resistances?
Which is best for Sleeper PVE engagements?

EvEHQ Prism – Blueprint Manager 101

We wanted to have a clear understanding of how much T3 Strategic Cruisers actually costs us to manufacture, what is our profit margin, raw material cost etc so we could set some prices for our corpmembers to gain access to T3 Strategic Cruisers.

It all came down to getting the information you need, and EvEHQ was there to automate the process. I decided to post a quick guide since many of you might need to use it for a similar situation. This is the first guide – of what we hope to be more in the future – send us your feedback on what you’d like to see!
