Did Oxygen's Tengufleet even achieve anything (besides shooting Pooki), or did it just turn around like all the other ones? After a 45+ minutes formup I just left.

The reasons oxygen gave for me not going were it wouldn't fit through the WH which was a lie and he didn't want my lossmail sullying his battlereport. So he killed me then went back to ya0

Yeah, I don't doubt his skill and resistance to burnout (just as important), but I kinda stopped going on his fleets because the handful of times I did go he was kind of the stereotypical thin-skinned primadonna FC (plus racial slurs, which is a pet peeve of mine). I'd rather rat up some cash to save for a triage chimera or go scanning for wormholes.

On the topic of better uses of time, what are some fun solo things to do for someone who doesn't know how the game works and doesn't have a lot of ships?

We wasted a lot of Spike M and Navy Irridium failing to get a tower to reinforce so Reavers could allegedly "finish it off" later. To be fair, the fact the like a third of the fleet was intercetors and T1 frigates kind of hurt. It was a flashback to BRAVE. Karmafleet was mostly not even there so I dont know why no one could fly a Tengu. There was one dude in a Tengu with meta 4 guns.

Zephyrine posted:I agree. There might have been a lot of moaning but him as the FC still brought the Nightmare along. He can't just call foul later on and blow it up without accepting responsibility. To my understanding he did kick it from fleet and the guy rejoined and then he asked permssion to commissar it. I wasnt privy to the conversation though.

I'd just join fleets and learn how to tackle and about fleet mechanics. If you really want to solo, you could shoot some red boxes in high sec or find yourself in low sec.

Drythe posted:Fleets are scary. I dunno how to do things We sat docked waiting for numbers for 45 minutes. Pookie asked and was told "No" you cannot bring a loving nightmare. Pookie did so anyway. Pookie was told it might get blown up if he didn't bring something useful. Pookie came anyway. I don't really feel too bad. I did feel a bit worse when my sabre bubbled his rear end. I was dual boxing a scimi and a sabre so to offset my karma, I kept shield repping. Then, and here's the part I regret, I asked "what's the story on his pod?" and I got back "I don't care." Hence: Nightmare: https://zkillboard.com/kill/46723172/ Pod: https://zkillboard.com/kill/46723177/ Edit: Crap, I forgot to contract him the poo poo that dropped. I didn't pull the trigger quickly enough on the AB, but the t2 stuff I grabbed. Cannon_Fodder fucked around with this message at 14:45 on May 19, 2015 |

I don't know if GSF has actual classes for stuff like spiralling, slingshotting, traversal and effective scouting (might just be wiki pages?) but if you want solo or small gang stuff, look up Space Violence. If you want to experience awful pos grinding in the equivalent of the french foreign legion, join Reavers and take one of their frigate roles. And if you just want to self-improve, ship a bunch of those frigates to one of the Faction Warfare zones (Ullerrm recommended a good system in this thread) and start losing ships. Think about how to improve each time, and ask threads like this for assistance. What faction's frigate skill have you got trained? and what weapon systems? Caldari frigate V is the most useful (harpyfleet, cawkfleet) but any of them work.

How is a fleet of Tengus unable to lose a goddamn battleship in less than a few jumps? I mean it's cool and all if you don't want to take the guy on, but to shoot him and then pod him? ... and then scrap the op?

Not that it's easy to ship poo poo from YA0 to there, but it is two jumps out of Rens. Buy stuff in Rens and pay a pubbie a buck to drag it to Osoggur for you. That would be a good place to blow some of your isk.If you're out there in a frig and you see me, feel free to convo me or w/e.

Here's a legitimate question: Why were you so interested in bringing the battleship to the tengufleet op? It didn't turn out to be much of a stratop, but you were told repeatedly that it wasn't welcome. I won't want to fan the flames, I'm curious as to your rationale.

Not obeying or ignoring the FCs orders has traditionally been a perfect reason to commissar someone, but shooting someone for bringing a ship that doesn't fit your comp AFTER leaving the staging system when you could just dump him from your fleet to begin with is pretty dumb. That said, goons have always been happier than a 3rd Reich German to shoot goons when given an order or green light. Viva Miriya posted:It begins. Shut up, Mandozer.
