Moving In:
I have recently decided to switch corps in EVE and have
Joined Resurrection Ventures of Un.Bound alliance. So far its been pretty good. My first 3 days all consisted of pvp which
was a great introduction for someone wanting to learn pvp better. The first day I raced 27 jumps to get to the
new group who had just tackled an archon on a high-sec hole in ac2.
Although I got there before the entrance collapsed it was crit and the
Bhalgorn that was there was needed more, when it jumped in the hole collapsed. I was able to listen to most of the 1 hr
22min fight on comms. The bhalgorn made
it in about 45 minutes into the fight.
We killed the Archon, a 1b Legion, 2 domi’s, 2 augorors and several
other ships, 9 in total, and only lost the bait deimos in our 5-7 man gang that
was in the fight.
The next day one of our scouts found to covetors
mining, I moved into position and our
scout got tackle on both. Myself, a HIC
and another dps ship dropped we killed
both miners and their pods, one of which was ~1b isk and the other 200-300m we
also blew up 4-5 jet cans full of ore probably worth a bit as well.
The third fight was the most intense for me. I was heading to the home hole from highsec,
which required going through a C2 which I had been told was inactive. However, when I jumped in there was a drake
on D-scan. I was already in warp to the
exit when I mentioned it on comms. I was
told they had just killed a drake there 30 minutes before hand and were
surprised to hear there was another. I
jumped into the C4 on the other side and refit for cloaked warping. There were only 2 combat sites on scan, the
first had several wrecks and rats but no drake, the other had only
sleepers. I warped back to the first
site. After about 2-3 minutes the drake
showed up. By this time a corp mate in a
falcon was ready to jump in from highsec, and a dps loki from the c4 was on the
c4 side of the c2-c4 worm hole waiting to jumps. I had the falcon come into the c2 and warp to
the site where the empty site at 100, and I warped there as well. I knew the drake was within 10 of the beacon
for the combat site, so I warped back at 10km and had the falcon aligned. When I landed the drake was 8700m away from
me, I had the loki jump and hold cloak.
I declocked primed my disruptor and started locking. The drake started to align. I wasn’t used to the decloak timer so I had
to try 3-4 times to prime my mod and lock the drake, I got him! The falcon
landed and started jamming the drake and sleepers while the loki warped in. We didn’t get the pod, but we killed the
drake, the loki did about 24k damage, I did just under 5k and the falcon put on
2-3k. It was the first time, literally
in years that I’ve tackled and killed anyone, it was very exciting.
I’m quite pleased with how the group works together on
comms, they seem to understand each others directions very well, and know when
to “shit up comms” and when to be quiet and take orders. They also seem to hunt a lot, so I’m sure I’ll
have many more stories to tell in the comoing weeks and months as I learn to
pvp and live in dangerous unknown parts of space…

TL:DR I heard people killed stuff, I killed stuff, I tackled
and killed stuff. It was a good day.
