Another fun filled week of mission running, Null Sec pew and a lot of time watching YouTube, mainly Rooks and Kings. The complexity of this game and the magnificent tactics and stratagems that are used at all levels continues to inspire me, so much so that once again my carefully laid out skill plan has been thrown into turmoil.
I should start by saying that my plan for this character was always to be a sub capital pilot with an ability to, eventually, utilise all frigate to battlecruiser hulls with battleships as a long term goal. Sadly my path to doing so has been fraught with many changes in direction as well as some tough decisions around when to train BC and Destroyer to 5 even though I use neither with any frequency at the moment.
I'm sure most EVE pilots will come to a point where their original goal has been surpassed, mine being to fly Interceptors with T2 guns, as the once grand goal is relatively easily achieved. I say this as a character which is exactly 7 months old and still with many areas to explore, both in a spacial term and in an in game experience sense. For me I've come to the conclusion that my next short term goal will involve Covert Ops craft and more specifically Stealth Bombers.
The idea was first seeded as I read through E-Uni's Work Fair section of the forums and noticed the number of Corps who ask potential recruits to be able to fly a Covert Ops ship, either a Stealth Bomber or a more traditional Covert Ops Frigate for scanning. This was then compounded by my various YouTube searches following some discussion into Stealth Bombers and a fantastic Blog post by CSM memeber Ripard Teg.
So here I am, 7 months in and still as clueless about so many things and learning new things every day, I'd like to think I've got a handle on quite a few things however as I delve further into the tactics and fighting styles of some of the longstanding Corps and Alliances of EVE I find that I have but scratched the surface.
There we have it, full speed ahead for some Stealth Bombing goodness in my future I think, until next time, fly dangerous o7

Making a move
So its been a while and since my last post Fanfest has taken place, details of Odyssey have been released and I've taken the leap from E-Uni's Low Sec campus (LSC) to Null Sec campus (NSC).So many changes both for the game and myself.
Many capsuleers within E-Uni often find the move from Aldrat to Dudreda a massive leap however to any Uni member who is considering the move I would say go for it, I've found many of the LSC guys to be very helpful and insightful, this must be tempered with the understanding that you have to create your own content. By that I mean you need to go out and explore, organise fleets or even just fit out some ships and go seek out 1v1 fights in Factional Warfare space, if you're not willing to do that then you'll be very bored from all the station spinning.
For me the LSC was, and still is, nice but there was something of a mini exodus with a number of pilots I know moving to the NSC I decided why not give it a try, the logistics of moving was surprisingly simple with a number of exciting fights in such a short space of time. Granted the danger element is certainly higher than Low Sec as any random neutral could open fire with no adverse consequence to them, it certainly keeps you on your toes and I've found it reinvigorating especially with new enemies many of which bring gangs to our own backyard.
As for my alts, the month has been quiet, PI sales are currently going okay however the recent spike in prices appears to be bursting, thankfully my small scale mining ops (solo or dual boxing) have allowed me to use some Battleship BPC's to build 4 ships which I plan to stash away until after the Odyssey patch, granted it may take some time to see the market costs to rise however I am prepared to be patient. Well that or fit them out and get them killed in some glorious Uni related fireball no doubt.
That's me for now, promise to make the posts a bit more regular and hopefully I can regale you with tales of my Null Sec PvP adventures :)
Until next time, fly safe o7
