Character Status

[Hoax]

I'm starting to realize that currently the f13 members cover a much wider spectrum of skills/goals then I had initially imagined I'm hoping everyone can post here just so we have an idea of who is doing what.  Hopefully this thread will help us in determining a timeline for when exactly we'll outgrow the Neesher area.

Skillpoints: I think I will hit 3million next week, I haven't been paying attention to how many I gain per day.

Ships I fly:  Mostly my Prophecy, I also use an executioner for loot recovery in Arzi and I have Amarr industrial 1 which gives me access to the largest cargo hold without investing any more time in training that skill with the Bestower, although I need to purchase one atm.

Skill Focus:  Currently I'm still training just gunnery skills with Gunnery 5 on the near horizon, with my learning skills done for now (Int and Perception are taken to IV in advanced) and my Engineering at 5 I also am slowly working up other usefull stuff like Long Range Targeting.  I have the skills to use my small drone bay but nothing invested in them, same with missiles where I can use a rocket launcher for defenders. 

Skill Plans:  Basically I'm going 100% combat atm, although in the long term (read: 4 months) I may try to make the logical jump from BC's to Command Ships, which means I am willing to be the person who trains up a bunch of the leadership skills.  I'm hesitant to do this for some time though as I will definitely need to take some more learning skills to advanced to ungimp my training time.

Available for Ops:  Whenever I'm online which is always going to be 7pm-12am PST depending on social plans, I'm always in the Neesher area and happy to blow up anything anyone needs blown up.  I can handle anything other then super fast web/scram frigates that get under my guns before I can kill them then orbit outside of rocket range (which is a sad 4,000m atm) although I can happily tank said frigates indefinitely. 

Things I'd like to do:  If somebody knew of a complex in our area with bigger badder spawns I'd love to check it out.  But for now I'm content to log on, chat, kill some rats and if nobody is doing anything usually log off and watch some anime or go out.

BPO's:  I really dont think any BPO's would really help me, I suppose if somebody said that the Thermal or Explosive medium drone BPO was super cheap (under 10mil? no idea how much those things cost) I'd buy it for the corp.  But no ammo is needed and given our current area we're stockpiling plenty of all the modules I use (not going to run out of heavy beams any time soon) except armor hardeners which I've been able to obtain in the forge/lonetrek/citadel region for cheap easily.

Yes I hate working on Fridays, it makes me ill.


*forgot to run spell check, when I did I realized I said atm like 5 times, sorry about that*

Which leads me to a minor question I had; I was looking at the warfare link modules (since the BC is allowed to equip them) and while they state what they affect, they don't say by how much. 

I suppose what I'm really trying to ask is:  Do you need the module to use the skill, or does the module just improve the way the skill works?

And given the skill and slot limitations on using more than one, what would be generally most useful, since they tend to affect specific things that won't apply to everyone (shield tanks vs. armor tanks, etc)?

[squirrel]

I'm still relatively a noob.

I'm travelling for work now i'm training up my final learning skill to IV and finishing Frig V (want to get an int eventually.)

I'm still flying a Kestrel after i had my cruiser blown away, realized it's probably better to be in a super tweaked frigate than a gimped cruiser so am waiting until i have all the Eng, warp and Nav skills i want.

So ya me (Talan) = Noob but in a  pretty decent frigate and close to having a good cruiser.

[gimpyone]

Skill Points: Almost 2 million
Ships I fly: Rupture, Scythe, Hoarder
Skill Focus: I want to build ships/weapons for the f13 Fleet hence why I'm heavy industry but shitty combat
Skill Plans: Get Production eff 5, see what other industrial skills would help and work on them plus working on ship support skills
Available for ops: Mostly weekends

[WayAbvPar]

Skill points- Antolin ~ 1M, Kaleeha about 300k
Focus- Antolin- combat/support skills, Kaleeha- research (eventually production as well)

Ships- Rifter, Iteron I, Burst (mining setup)

Goals- I am hoping to acquire the capital for Scientific Networking for Kaleeha (~6.5M), and then start working on a cruiser for Antolin. He should have the skills for an MAPC by the end of the weekend, and then it is on to finish Frigate IV and then get into cruisers.


Availability- I am willing to help with any sort of op when I am on (nights PST).

[Moaner]

I just wanted to introduce myself here.  I've been lurker here on the f13 boards since the day they went up.  I kinda moved from LTM->SND->Waterthread->f13.  I've never been a real active poster, but you guys are so much fun I've stuck around throughout the years. 

I just started playing Eve about 3 weeks ago and am really digging the game.  I'm pretty sure I'm in it for the long haul at this point.  So...  I started joining the f13 channel from time to time just to see what you guys are up to.  I'm still a newb and don't have much to offer you all, but I'd love to join the corp at some time in the future.

My characters name is Inxi Moans.

Skill points - 390k

Ships - I fly a Caracal atm

Focus - I want to fly a Manticore, but I have a long ways to go.  I'm working on missile skills, electronics, and ship skills.  This is all going kinda slow as I'm still a couple days away from having my learning skills all trained to 4. 

Skill plans - I want to fly covert ops, and eventually recon.  I'm a long ways off yet, but hey.

Availability - I am willing to help with most anything I can.  My schedule is variable, but I play most every evening.  As I'm single with no kids so I have a tendency to play way more than I should.

[Soln]

haven't been on last week, work trauma (release time)

Charactername   Soln   
Skill plans -- finish up some combat (gunnery 5) skills but also want to explore science, industry
Total skill points   774,971      
Flying still my Kestrel

[Yegolev]

People probably know what my focus is already, but just to recap:

Short term, concentrating on mining.  Currently flying a cruiser with no weapons, just mining lasers and drones.  I can fly an Iteron Mark I (Gall indy) and will be working my way up the Gall hauler line, and mining barges.

Middle term, I want to start doing some research, particularly in the Electronics section.  Coincidentally, this includes drone research.  Also I am working up my drone skills of both combat and mining types.

Long term... who knows?  ECM or something related to fleet support.

[Megrim]

Halleon:

Basically, i've made him out to be pretty much 100% combat, with (at the moment) a reasonably broad range of skills. My biggest spreads are in Gunnery, Engeneering and Electronics, with a healthy dose of Missile skills and  the ability to fly pretty much every frigate (and destroyer in the game) thrown in.

The long term plan is to take up Battleships (probably Minmatar), with a branching out into Tier 2 equipment (mostly weapons and ammo, followed by everything else).

At the moment i'm ratting in a destroyer, in order to build up minerals for a Rupture.

[Strazos]

I blow things up. Gonna work my way into BCs and BSs.

[Zetleft]

All combat character myself.  Got gunnery up to 5 and alot of missile skills as well.  Need to work on my learning skills some more but got a decent amout of electronic and engineering skills right now.  Flying a rupture now and considering a persuit into cloaked ships at some point. 

[Yoru]

I do whatever I want. 2.5 million skillpoints.

I can fly a decently-outfitted cruiser, mine up a storm, run a base-level Caldari indy, do agents, run research/manufacturing offices, and conduct trade via buy/sell orders.

I'm currently on the cusp of getting to battleship (just finishing my advanced learnings, excl. Charisma), moving into battleship soon, then filling out my battleship. After that, who knows.

[Raging Turtle]

550k or so skill points, mostly in learning, navigation, and ships.  Flying around in an Omen for looks and level 2 missions, and have a large number of frigs in the hangar fitted for various purposes. 

Soon-ish plan is to train for Amarr interceptors while getting the general support skils for combat and possibly research up as well.  Spent a little time as a pirate; that was fun and I'll probably go back to it farther down the line.

[Krakrok]

Running a battlecruiser w/ leadership skills.

[Der Helm]

Sebiestor Helm

Total skill points 673,778 as of now.

I am going combat, next goal is Cruiser, Assault frigates after that. I want to be able to fly most of the available minmatar ships.

[Ketty]

In game, I'm the hand on the mouse of Bant and Bethal.

Bant's the materials specialista.  Aiming for 99% recovery on refining/reprocessing....currently at 96.5%  I'm also aiming to specialize  in mining so that I actually have material to be a specialist with.  As far as fleet ops go, I'm a miner/hauler at present, but looking towards covert ops / EW as the role to play in more violent situations in the future.  Short term is to be able to fly an Amarrian Apoc for mining.  Longer term, Caldari Scorpion.

Bethal's my combat bitchress.  Ultimately I want her able to fly both Caldari and Amarr BS.  She's currently working on Caldari Frig IV. 

I'm pretty much just permanently haunting Arzi at the moment.  Snarfing up Hemo either solo or ganged and killing rats when they bug me and I'm able.  Getting 0.0 fever though.....

[Catalan]

I'm Lucius Viperinus in game. He's old, very old , as his avatard shows, but still a noob, as I hated EVE both times I resubbed. I was playing it "wrong" ;)

I have now just under 900k skillpoints, spread from trade to mining with some growing navigation and gunnery stuff. I can drive amarr, minmatar and caldari frigates, and  fit most stuff on them, I can also use destroyers and amarr industrials. My current ships are a Punisher frigate for missions and 0.5-0.4 ratting, a Cormorant destroyer with 5 XeCl mining lasers for boring myself and a Bestower hauler. I also have 25 shuttles here and there :)

I find I'm addicted to small fast ships for combat, so I'm tempted to see if I can avoid the usual route through cruisers and up and go straight for those sexy Assault Frigates.

My last focus has been hauling stuff with my Bestower, which seems very profitable compared to level I missions, solo mining or "midsec" ratting, but it's quite risky and involved.

[Furiously]

I play Kifu in game, I think I have about 1.2M skillpoints. Mostly in missile skills and mining. I intend to take her into mining and manufacturing. Once bloodlines is released I plan to make a combat/research character. Still debating if I want a 2nd account.

[Yegolev]

I am updating this because I am currently working on Science V (well I forgot to switch from Metallurgy this morning but still) which will probably take another 2.5 days, then Electronics V which will be something like 5.5-5.9 days until completion.  After that I will see about getting a relevant research skill, probably drones unless someone has a cuckoo-bananas idea for me.

I spent some of my insurance money on acquiring many "basic" skills that I had ignored due to financial contraints, starting maybe seven or eight new skills and storing four in my hangar since I either didn't read or ignored the prereqs.  These are mostly level 1 and include such necessities as Remote Armor Repair, Leadership, Energy SysOp, Targeting, and Drone Durability.

I have my new cruiser outfitted with mining basics (4x Miner II, 1x Extended Cargo, 2x Co-Proc I) and will grind roids until such time as I am able to anchor a secure container and start mining "4 realz".

Am I supposed to tell how many skill points I have?  +1.6 million.

[Merusk]

Quick and Dirty, I'm a combat character.  Currently flying an Arty Cyclone(battlecruiser) and a Machine Gun Wolf (assult frigate) I'm available to help folks whenever, just send me a PM here or an Eve Mail.  I don't play every day, and not even for very long stretches simply because y'all play much later than I do.

Details on my skills, etc. are Here

[Reg]

Are ore thieves really a problem where you mine Yeg? I always mine into a jetcan myself and just haul the ore after an hour or when the can is finally full. You aren't just mining into your hold and warping back to the station every time it fills up are you?

[Yegolev]

I don't know how bad ore thieves are.  I haven't really tested it.  I am curently wasting time by warping a lot, but I am considering mining into a jetcan and collecting with Big Bertha to see how that works out.  The thing is that I don't have my own hauler and I don't want to count on Bertha being available.  I'll be trying this out soon enough.

[Viin]

I plan on getting some BPCs (at least) for Haulers. Since most of us are Caldari I will get the Badger 2 BPC. Who else can fly an industrial and what race? We might be able to make 2-3 of each so we always have some available to take out.

[WayAbvPar]

I can fly Gall Indys...bought a Mark III last night. Hopefully this one will last- stuffed the lows with a couple of stabs so those bastard rats in Arzi can't ream me again =)

[Yegolev]

Can fly the Iteron I, Gallente.  I will work my industrial skill once I get Science and Electronics to 5... so it's a few weeks out.

[Furiously]

And oh yea - I have my 29 Million pt character and their BS I will be bringing over to lend a hand with BI if you would all like.

[Strazos]

 

[Hoax]

You can be like one of the seven samurai  :-D

[Llyse]

Hi,

I'm Llyse, recently joined to the corp

Being Megrim's friend I'm going major combat and just dabbling in everything but probably will end up in an interceptor or assault class frig

Currently at about 200k points aiming for Caldari Cruisers for my Caracal

[TheDreamr]

"Alexandris" ingame, Caldari character, around 2 weeks old.

Right now I'm just sorting my stuff out before I join ... currently doing a mix of kill missions (L1) and some mining / small-scale production.


Short term goals; being able to use a combat cruiser effectively, being able to deploy Miner II's on my osprey, developing my missile skills.

Long term goals; maxing out fitting and weapon support skills, improving my mining, refining and production skills, deciding between Caldari and Amarr ships & weaponry.

...and in the UK, so wont be able to play on latenight ops

[angry.bob]

Well, I'm at 250,000 skill points, all of it in learning skills except what I nneded to get Gallente Industrial.

I'm working maxing all the learning skills including the tier 2 stuff before I actually work on any combat stuff. In the meanwhile I'm using an Iteron frieghter to mine asstons of Veldspar at the n00b training areas. If anyone knows of a more productive/profitable place to mine that's completely safe let me know.

Oh, and I intend to go into research/manufacturing and getting a battleship. But for the next month at least I'm working on the Learning Skills.

I think it actually takes two months.  You've probably already read the official skill boards, but I recommend asking the corp for a little money to buy some cheap implants, they'll skim off some good time. 

[angry.bob]

I hadn't read the skill boards, I just vaguely remembered someone someplace pointing out that a character that starts out maxing all the learning skills first is gimpy and boring starting out, but becomes an unstoppable jugernaught of skillpoints the further along they go, blowing past the people who didn't train them right off the bat. 

I bought a bunch of implants already... having way more free money than free time or patience, I threw $20 at ebay and bought 100,000,000 ISK. Yeah, I'm an evil turd supporting virtual sweatshops and whatnot. But man, that 100 million sure is nice.

And I see what everyone is talking about. I've gotten so much other stuff done while I play Eve that I'm actually ahead of schedule on a lot of my projects.

Forums are down atm, but in the Skill section there's a sticky that lists the most efficient order to train up your skills.

Since you are ebaying ISK, I shouldn't need to help you, you cheater.  But you should be able to go to a .8 system and mine plagioclase which refines into trit, pyre and mexallon.  The mexallon will get you more money, like 10-15 ISK each depending on the market.  You seem to be Space French so I suggest Scolluzer as a .8 system, and you can move into Claulenne [.7] when you feel more confident with your defenses... although you should be able to survive just fine in a Navitas fitted for mining in .7 space by warping out.  The main reason to mine in Claulenne is that it spawns omber which refines into isogen, and it even has a refining facility [Calamari station].  You have to get in there pretty quick after roid spawn, though, it's not really a secret.  If you can log in after the Wed morning reboot, you should be able to get more omber than you can handle if you can stay ahead of the stripminers.  Even then, they will often leave two or three roids behind since it's not worth their effort.  I'd still be there if I didn't want to fly with F13 in Neesher so much.
