Solo PvP Ships Ranked

So where is the Tristan? I limited each tier to only six ships - which means there are plenty of good ships, like the Tristan, that did not make the cut. In the current meta the Tristan has lost some of its historic luster. Sadly, but it is the truth. It is increasingly difficult for any T1 Frigate to not only find solo content, but survive it once it has been found. That is just the reality of Eve today. So what I tried to do was create five tiers and rank the six best ships at each of those parameters. All-Around ships, like the Comet, perform under a very, very wide window of engagement. As do the other ships on the list. Those engagement windows are different for each one of these ships, but they are all very wide. And the Hecate makes it because it also can probe. Situational Best are ships that I feel are the best at more specific goals than the all-around ships. The windows are smaller, but still impressive. But in these ships you really run the risk of picking the wrong e...

Navy Destroyers

Four new Destroyers were introduced along with the Uprising expansion. The Thrasher Fleet Issue, the Catalyst Navy Issue, the Cormorant Navy Issue, and the Coercer Navy Issue. These four ships, along with changes to Factional Warfare systems, constituted the core elements of that expansion. And they have had a significant impact on the fundamental ecosystem of Player Versus Player content within Eve Online. These ships are significant additions to the potential fleet a player can access with major implications across the spectrum of playing styles. So let me share my impressions after having flown them all in combat. As always this is not going to be a data driven review. I undock things and I engage in combat with them. To learn about these ships I went and bought a bunch of them, fitted them up, and engaged in combat with them. Rinse and repeat. Fits were trial fits both worked out using Pyfa, but also after conversations with other Stay Frosty pilots, and based on experience i...

The Idiot's Guide to Low Sec Gates

Way back in 2011 I wrote a series of guides based around the "Idiot's Guide" for various activities in New Eden. Back then these guides were mostly null sec based, because I was null sec based back then. You can find the 2011 version of this post right here if you want. The information is a tad out-of-date, but the advice is still good advice. Anyway, I thought it was a good time to update some of these. It has been ten years!! So here is the first in a new series of Idiot's Guides - Low Sec Gates for Dummies. The Low Sec Gate. It looks like any other gate in New Eden, but it isn't. It has its own set of rules and issues, knowing what those are and how they operate can save your ship. Or allow you to explode someone else's ship. I make no judgement calls on which side of that coin you happen to be on. Whatever way you play, the important thing is knowledge. So let's review how Low Sec Gates work. You warp up to them and then jump through into another sy...

Top 10 T1 Combat Frigates

We fly Frigates because they are the purest expression of combat in all of Eve. No matter how old or experienced the player, you can only pack so many skill points into a T1 Frigate, which gives players of all ages a chance to experience a good fight. Cheap, versatile, and a lot of fun to fly - T1 Frigates rule the skies of Eve. Great for solo, impossible to stop in swarms, Frigates are the foundation for everything else that happens in New Eden. I fly a lot of ships but I try to fly at least one T1 Frigate every single day. Based on that experience and the experience of fighting against them, here are my current Top Ten Rankings of the best of the best in T1 Frigates within the current environment. I based this solely on my own opinion, experience and each ships ability to fight solo and in small gangs. Below Ten - The Condor and the Rifter Every Frigate has a place and a use, but some are more versatile, stronger, faster, and potentially worth flying solo than others. Curre...

Wild Banshee Indians

Whenever my brother and I would run around like crazy people, our Mother would say, "You two are like a pack of wild banshee Indians." The Internets say, "A banshee Indian is an Indian mythical female spirit whose wailing or appearance warns a family that one of them will soon die. Before a death occurs, the Indian banshee will go wailing and clapping hands: if the death is of a holy person, a whole chorus of banshees will wail." Ok fine, I believe everything I read on the Internets. I don't think my Mom seriously thought my brother and I were harbingers of death, at least I hope not. I suspect what she was on about was the sounds we were probably making. When you are a kid these sounds are normal, but when you grow up and have children of your own - well then you know exactly what kind of Hell your own parents lived through. What does any of this have to do with Eve? The whole idea of "wild banshee indians", not the actual historical words, ...
