Directional scanning is an amazingly useful thing to know how to do, and I will venture to say that it's your primary lowsec soloing skill. '''Knowing how to d-scan allows you to find your fights, instead of waiting for your fights'''. | Directional scanning is an amazingly useful thing to know how to do, and I will venture to say that it's your primary lowsec soloing skill.

It's assumed that you've taken the time to utilize the [Overview Guide]. A properly arranged overview is crucial to your ability to fight engagements. That being said, the Uni overview does not lend itself well to scanning, as by default, most of your brackets are turned off. We'll remedy that. | It's assumed that you've taken the time to utilize the [[Overview Guide]]. A properly arranged overview is crucial to your ability to fight engagements.

To supplement the standard Uni overview, you can create a new preset in which near everything is selected. Planets, belts, etc... Any object that you believe an unsavory pilot may have reason to visit. Save the preset as "Bracket" or a similar naming convention. Now, in your overview settings, you can set your bracket profile so that all brackets pertinent to scanning are showing. The brackets don't clutter up your overview, but simply give you celestial objects to scan towards while you're in space. | To supplement the standard Uni overview, you can create a new preset in which near everything is selected.

Assume everyone in space would love nothing more than to turn your beloved ship into charred wreckage. Even so, Eve University has a very strict policy about who you can engage ''first'' while in the University. I'll link it for you. [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/ROE#Rules_of_Engagement Right here]. Pay close attention to the fact that we can't engage neutral pilots ''first''. If you land on grid with a neutral, feel free to target them or bump them, and make yourself a pest that deserves to be shot. Once they've shot you, they're fair game. The University does not consider any of these tactics aggress acts at the time of this writing. Point is: You can oftentimes goad a neutral pilot into a fight. | Assume everyone in space would love nothing more than to turn your beloved ship into charred wreckage.
