Introduction

In order to learn how to fight back, the student of PVP needs to realize that Eve Online combat is incredibly rich and diverse. It requires, not only character skill points, but also a good amount of player skills. The difference between a ship loss and a ship kill is more often the player skills than the character skills.

The goal of PVP-BASIC is to provide you with the basic skills and confidence required to fly as part of a successful PVP gang, as well as being an introduction to combat in 0.0 space. The lessons taught in PVP-BASIC are fundamental to Eve combat and are a starting point for the study of tactics, strategy and dynamics of Eve PVP. These skills are applicable to all kinds of Eve combat, regardless of whether you're defending your mining fleet from Pirate attacks, or stalking lawless space in search of targets of your own.


This class is aimed at players who are new to PVP, or have limited PVP experience.


The core topics this class will be covering are:

  • Basic Fleet Maneuvering
  • Basic PVP Mechanics
  • Communication and Recon


Format

PVP-BASIC is split into two sections:

  • The "Class Portion" will be a mixture of theory and practical, generally taught in highsec and lowsec.
  • "The Roam" where we head into 0.0 and put what you have learned to use in many hostile situations.


The class portion lasts around 2 hours. The roam lasts at least 2 hours, quite often more, but you are free to leave the roam at any time.


Prerequisites

The skill requirements for the BASIC fits are listed below. These are the minimum skills you need to be able to fit and fly the class ships with basic T1 fittings. For a completely new character, this training should take around 4 days at the most.
