Evergreen Skill Plan is my take on skills that you should train in the beginning. Feel free to modify it according to your taste - I find it a bit better than [[Pyramid Skill Plan]] - it covers more or less the same skills, but in different order.

What these lists do not include, are skills for specific weapons - train them up to lvl III if you need them, to lvl V + Specialization if you really love them and they will become your main weapons. Don't be afraid to test different weapons systems - you might find that you prefer one over another. I also did not include ship skills - train them when you feel like flying different ships :)

Rigs and Compensations skills get their own category. Most of them are not useful - for example EX shield amplifiers are almost not used, so it doesn't make sense to train them. If you use rigs from specific category (for example Shield rigs) - train these. The same with Compensation skills - if you use specific module (for example EM shield resistance amplifier is quite common) train only specific skill.

Is that plan good? I don't really know. I find split for 2 different tank types and T1/T2 split of weapon systems to be eaiser to manage than pyramid. It's not complete - it does not include every skill (byt the time you are at that point, you should have good feeling what to train) and does not have EWAR/Tackle/Logi skills -  by design, as I find their inclusion in basic skill plan for new players to be mistake. These skills are important - but I've seen new players training EWAR, because it's in the pyramid, before training any weapon skills - which is a mistake. If you want to specialize in these roles - [[Pyramid Skill Plan]] is your friend.

Cheap and easy to fly - for a L4 runner. Manages to run all L4s without big issues - some of them require manual flying, but nothing really bad should happen. Important to note - webs are super dangerous, as it relies heavily on speed tanking.

A bit of breakdown:
 +
 +
'''High slots''': RLMLs - I use T2s, but you can load Arbalests if you don't have skills. On Gila missiles are used only to get frigates down - they have very low DPS compared to drones, so it's not super important. Link Augmentor I, as II will push CPU to dangerous areas.
 +
 +
 +
'''Med slots''': All dedicated to tank. Large Shield Extender IIs would be enough, but Caldari version uses less CPU, which helps. AB chosen to be cap stable - you can use any type, but cap stability is very important - you need to move fast all the time, otherwise you will have a bad day.
 +
 +
 +
'''Low slots''': All DPS. I considered briefly Federation variant, but that's bling for not much gain - in the end I skipped it. Take it if you want it.
 +
 +
 +
'''Rigs''': Unfortunately set of Purgers II is required to tank all L4s. Rather expensive, but take them, do not downgrade to Is
 +
 +
 +
'''Drones''': Sets of T2s - I prefer Vespas over all other types, as they have decent DPS, Kinetic is 'good enough' for missions, and Vespas are shield tanked - they survive almost anything.
 +
 +
 +
'''Cargo''': Same story - Kinetic is good enough, and carrying 4 types of missiles is cumbersome. Or I'm too lazy for it :P I usually use normal missiles or Furies, auto-targeting might be useful when damped/jammed - that rarely happens.
 +
 +
 +
'''Other Notes''': Fit is over CPU - I need EE-603 for it. If you want to avoid having implant, then Arbalests are required. Fit is perfectly fine with Navy Drones, and you can even Meta-down shield modules - but I would recommend taking Damage Control II in low slot. Overall if tank is not compromised, you will be fine in all missions - maybe slower with such changes. I tested all L4s with shield skills on IV - so max skills are not needed by any means.

That's a completely different beast. Active tank, to get 2 utility med slots, Heavy Missiles for more DPS, and bling all over the place, to make it fit on CPU. It also assumes you have at least Med-grade Hydra set (and High-grade being better) to fix application of missiles and drones and heavy missile hardwirings. It can spit out 916 DPS with Hammerheads and Fury missiles, has adequate tank and looks great in black SKIN. Costs 6 Billions together with implants, so be careful :P I do not recommend that ship, unless you obey rule 0 (Fly what you can afford to lose), and losing 2B ship and 4B pod is not a big deal for you.
 +
 +
For cheaper option (probably more reasonable too) swap Heavy Missiles to RLMLs - then you can take 3x DDA II in low slots, Drone Link Augmentor II in high slot, and replace sensor booster with Omni Tracking link - that way Hydras are not needed, and it uses up 99.37% of available CPU, which works ok. Also take T2 drones, not Augs. That lowers the price to 750-ish M, and DPS to 760.

Big, bad and ugly. This Machariel chews through rats, flies fast and is super fun to play. Probably overtanked, a bit blingy, requires EE-605. It's my second most used ship after Gila, but requires your attention - no coffee breaks during missions :)

Stupidly tanked Praxis, for running Epic Arcs. It can run all of them, doesn't require perfect skills (Shield skills at IV) and is designed to survive every mission in Epic Arcs. Some ([[Studio 1]]) are tricky, but all of them are doable solo. Tested [https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=119516 here].

Additionally, you will need Atron (or other frigate) fit for sub-2s align and MWD in your frigate escape bay. With that set all Epic Arcs are yours :)
 +
 +
===Future plans===
 +
Cerberus - almost made, but lacking skills. Due to last changes without MWD, but with 100MN AB - should be fun when I finally build it.
 +
 +
Nighthawk - in plans, as a booster for mission fleets, and as a test 'How absurdly can you passive tank' - against Serpentis it has more than 1k EHP/s :D

=Halsky's PvE fitting guide=
 +
<br>
 +
{{Note| This section will be eventually finished. For now do not trust everything what is here, some information might be unchecked}}
 +
 +
 +
 +
Preface: I'm terrible writer, and also not the best ship-fitter there is. But I've seen my share of bad fits, which were obviously wrong - so I decided to make short guide of how I do PvE fits, in hope that it will help someone. There are other fitting guides which might be better - check all sources, and run your fit through other people - you will make mistakes, and there's nothing wrong in it.

 +
 +
===What you need?===
 +
1. Patience trained to lvl 5 - making fits is easy, making good fits takes a lot of practice<br>
 +
2. [[Pyfa]] - absolutely crucial. Fitting window in game is terrible, making new fit there is not fun at all<br>
 +
3. General knowledge what modules are in game. I will try to explain a bit, and link relevant Wiki pages, but the more you know = the less you have to check<br>
 +
 +
 +
===T1, T2, Meta?===
 +
When fitting a ship, you should always use the proper Meta level of modules. It's extremely hard to define 'proper' from previous sentence :) I recommend fitting using T2 modules everywhere, and then downgrading to Meta (never T1) after your fit is almost ready - sometimes due to skills, sometimes due to fitting requirements. You can also upgrade to Faction/Deadspace modules in few cases - some deadspace modules are dirt cheap and offer way better performance than T2s
 +
 +
 +
===Fit purpose===
 +
Before making any fit, you need to know what you will need it for. The same ship will be fitted completely different for PvE and PvP - and using even good fit, but for wrong purpose, will make it much worse.<br>
 +
What I can explain here, are PvE only fits - mission running in HiSec. That's very small part of Eve, but most players start here, and everyone has their preferences regarding ship - I thought it makes sense to babble about fitting in that narrow context.
 +
 +
 +
===Ship selection===
 +
Starting from this section, I will include example for each step - so you can follow along.<br>
 +
That's the first step in making a fit - choose what you want to fly today :) Take a look at Wiki page, and read it - it's worth knowing what are exact stats of that ship. Important things to notice:<br>
 +
*Ship bonuses - that section usually tells you what is the purpose if the ship, what weapon you should use, and sometimes what tank works best on it
 +
*HP amount - for Structure, Armor and Shield. If ship is not directly bonused to specific tank, HP amount is good indicator
 +
*Slot layout - especially for [[High slot|High slots]] - how much space do we have
 +
*Summary - sometimes very good info is written there, with hints regarding ship uses/fits
 +
 +
 +
{|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="text-align: left"
 +
|<strong>Example</strong>
 +
|-
 +
|style="text-align:left;"| To keep things simple for you, and interesting for me I'll pick a ship I never fitted or flown before - [[Cyclone]].<br>
 +
What do we know about it from Wiki?
 +
*Bonuses to Heavy (Assault) Missiles - that will be our main weapon
 +
*Bonuses to Shield Boost amount, and highest HP in Shield - that will be our tank
 +
*7 High slots, with 5 launcher hardpoints and 2 turret hardpoints - we could use 5 launchers + 2 turrets, or 5 launchers + 2 utility highs - we'll see about that
 +
*5 Medium slots - this will allow us to build decent tank, but not much space for utilities
 +
*5 Low slots - very good news for shield tanked ship, as it allows us to fit DPS modules + some tank/engineering stuff
 +
|}
 +
 +
===Order of importance===
 +
My approach for fitting PvE ships in general follows this order of importance:<br>
 +
*Tank
 +
*Weapons
 +
*Utilities
 +
*Everything else
 +
Why? PvE engagements are 'long', drawn in time - you spend several minutes shooting and being shot at by rats. If you can safely tank the encounter, then you will succeed (at least in missions) - increasing DPS/application will shorten time spent, which in turn means more ISK/h - but if you die, no amount of DPS will save you :) Wespons are important, as you want to shoot rats back - otherwise you will just float in space being angry at them. Utilities serve the sole purpose of making your weapons better - improving application any way possible, to increase your 'effective' DPS. There's not much besides that for PvE ships.
 +
 +
 +
===Tank===
 +
There are several types of [[Tank]] available, but only some of them are good for PvE. In general, we have:
 +
*'''Shield tank - Active''': We have shield boosters, which repair our shields when activated. Good for PvE, but you have to be careful about your [[Capacitor]]
 +
*'''Shield tank - Passive''': We do not have boosters, but we utilize high recharge rate of shields - this tank is very nive for PvE, but limited to small amount of ships
 +
*Shield tank - Buffer: We have large amount of shield HP, but no way of recharging. It's bad for PvE, as it requires [[Logi]] ships
 +
*'''Armor tank - Active''': Similar to active shield tank, very good for PvE
 +
*Armor tank - Buffer: Again, similar to shield buffer, useful in fleets with Logi, not in solo PvE
 +
*Hull tank - Buffer: Same story, not for PvE :)
 +
 +
Additionally, I consider these as a valid method of tanking, or at least it makes sense to think about that this way:
 +
*Speed tank - if we have ship which is always moving fast (with Afterburner, not MWD), it's harder to hit by rats - so it receives less incoming DPS. If you plan to use speed tank, be aware that you MUST move fast, otherwise you might explode a bit
 +
*DPS tank - if you can remove enemy ships very fast, then you receive less DPS. In other words, you sacrifice some tanking capabilities to increase DPS, in hope that you will kill them first. I do not recommend fitting for DPS tank anything smaller than Battleships
 +
*Range tank - if you plan your engagements at long range, enemies also cannot hit you. It's worth having in mind, as it means that using short range weapons will put more stress on your tank capabilities
 +
 +
 +
So how do you fit your tank?
 +
 +
First - you need to know how much do you need. I usually aim for 100 EHP/s for T1 Cruisers, 250 EHP/s for T1 Battlecruisers and 500 EHP/s for T1 Battleships - for L2/L3/L4 missions respectively. I also tend to 'overtank' my ships - it's easier to remove some tank if I see it's too much, than to struggle with missions and warp out several times. These values assume you're not actively speed tanking, and you're not sniping from extreme ranges - if that's true, you can try to lower your tank a bit.
 +
 +
Which tank you want to choose?<br>
 +
[[#Active Shield tank|Active Shield tank]]<br>
 +
[[#Passive Shield tank|Passive Shield tank]]<br>
 +
[[#Active Armor tank|Active Armor tank]]<br>
 +
 +
===Active Shield tank===
 +
When fitting active shield tank, you want to have:
 +
*Damage control module - I always start my fits with this. It provides resist bonuses to shield, armor and hull, which increases your [[EHP]] - you can think about removing it later, but it's always a good first step
 +
*Shield booster - take proper size for your ship, and slap it on
 +
*Shield boost amplifier - increases your booster efficiency. Start with one, see where it goes
 +
*Shield resists - the better they are, the more effective your shield booster is. Multispectrum shield hardeners increase your resists for all damage types - I prefer them instead of refitting for each mission with damage-specific hardeners, but that's also an option
 +
*Shield resists - I prefer to have equal shield resists for all damage types - so called Omni-tank. It can be fixed with shield hardeners, shield resistance amplifiers or shield rigs
 +
*Empty mid slot - remember to leave one mid slot empty (at least) - you want to have a prop mod there
 +
 +
To be finished later - have fun :)

=Q-Click-Click=
 +
 +
===What's that?===
 +
Q-Click-Click, officially called 'using Approach hotkey' is superior way of manual piloting. It allows to manually go to any point in space, without moving your camera. This allows to move around grid with ease, while having good view of space around you.
 +
 +
===How you do that?===
 +
As name suggest, you hold 'Q' (default keybind for 'Approach') and click twice.
 +
 +
1. Hold Q
 +
[[File:Approach_Q.gif|frameless|600px|none|Holding Q]]<br>
 +
 +
2. First click determines your 'direction' and distance you want to travel, then you can select 'elevation' of your path. Notice how diameter of circle (distance) doesn't change.
 +
[[File:Approach_QC.gif|frameless|600px|none|First Click]]<br>
 +
 +
3. Second click determines confirms destination and your ships starts to move
 +
[[File:Approach_QCC.gif|frameless|600px|none|Second Click]]<br>
 +
 +
4. Keep in mind - target point distance is set by first click - if you reach it, your ship will stop
 +
[[File:Approach_Stop.gif|frameless|600px|none|Ship stopping]]<br>
 +
 +
5. Useful for aligning down the gates
 +
[[File:Approach_Align.gif|frameless|600px|none|Approaching]]<br>
 +
 +
6. If you hold Q and doubleclick on any object, you will start direct approach to that object
 +
[[File:Approach_Approach.gif|frameless|600px|none|Aligning]]<br>
 +
 +
It requires getting used to - but is really great when it comes to manual piloting :)
 +

=Quick OBS setup guide=
 +
 +
===What's OBS?===
 +
It's a freeware software for screen capture - has many useful features, but I'll cover here simple setup to grab your screen :)
 +
 +
 +
===Steps===
 +
 +
1. Go to https://obsproject.com/ and download OBS for your OS
 +
 +
2. Install it
 +
 +
3. Launch OBS - you will see that screen: (you can re-launch it via Tool -> Auto configuration wizard)
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/qIEbBIv.png https://i.imgur.com/P0kde8T.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
4. Select "Optimize just for recording"
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/Jfg1tjI.png https://i.imgur.com/6Lvex4i.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
5. On next screen, select which resolution OSB should use. "Use Current" selects current screen settings, dropdown lists other options (other screens or resolutions)
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/sjxSudH.png https://i.imgur.com/FLqb1cL.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
6. Last screen will show summary, should look like that. Click Apply settings.
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/6xJ7vws.png https://i.imgur.com/rAGK1PC.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
7. IMPORTANT STEP - in mixer (middle bottom) mute your Mic/Aux - otherwise OBS will also capture your mic input. You can mute (or not) Desktop Audio - that's your audio output - it will contain game sounds, but also voice of others from mumble, so if you're in comms, mute that also
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/UaW2Jsx.png https://i.imgur.com/YHBWZXt.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
8. In sources window (bottom) click "+" icon
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/OOPjQ1S.png https://i.imgur.com/ZoMRf9A.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
9. In expanded list, select "Display Capture"
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/j0tp1mW.png https://i.imgur.com/QVx8J57.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
10. Click OK in next two dialogs
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/ccBop80.png https://i.imgur.com/piLPr1m.png]</span>
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/DxtBaM9.png https://i.imgur.com/jAzSqkM.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
11. Go to Settings -> Output and select output directory
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/squ3KUZ.png https://i.imgur.com/ypQfsdn.png]</span>
 +
 +
<span class="plainlinks">[https://i.imgur.com/FpNSgZ3.png https://i.imgur.com/vZY1IDK.png]</span>
 +
 +
 +
12. Done. When you press "Start Recording" it will record your screen, until you press stop :) Be careful though, as it will also record other things on your screen, like your desktop. Setting it up the so it won't is left as excercise to the reader :)
 +

=SoE Blitz=
 +
 +
 +
===The Challenge===
 +
SoE Epic Arc can be blitzed. Pretty impressive times can be reached, using Interceptors/T3Ds/other advanced ships. The Challenge which I wanted to accomplish is to speedrun SoE Epic Arc counting from Character Generation - you start up new Alpha toon, and your only objective is to finish that Epic Arc. You can set up whatever you need in advance, but all missions have to be done solo. Can you beat me?
 +
 +
 +
===Stats===
 +
1. 6h 51m
 +
First run - completely without preparation, including some Jita shipping - 6h 51m. That includes shipping time, figuring out skills, fumbling with corp invite, all that stuff. Super un-optimized, it was just a test run to check how fast you can get enough skills to beat Dagan.
 +
 +
2. 3h 57m
 +
Second run - timed from start of character creation to entering biomassing queue. I bothed the skills a bit, and probably I could squeeze our couple minutes from that time, but I consided 4h to be reasonable for blitz :)
 +
 +
===Strats===
 +
1. Ship choice
 +
To run that arc fast, I need two ships. One fast ship, and one tough ship.
 +
For fast ship, I opted for Merlin - fresh toons have gunnery skills already trained, so I can use small hybrids right away. It's fitted and rigged for warp speed, as due to low skills I cannot make it sub3s. Also Expanded Cargohold is needed, due to one mission requiring moving 150m3 of materials.
 +
 +
For tough ship I chose Gnosis. I do not need any skills to fly it, and craptastic RLML fit had barely enough DPS to kill Dagan. In fact I'm using 2 different fits - one for Arnon (where I need AB and better tank for Dagan) and one for 4 (!) other Gnosises, located around SoE mission areas (Harerget, Hatakani, Hek, Lisudeh) - that saves on travel time with Gnosis. Each one is parked and waiting for me while I travel in Merlin
 +
 +
2. Skills
 +
Missile Launcher II
 +
Light Missiles I
 +
Light Drones I
 +
Social I
 +
Social II
 +
 +
Aaaand that's all. You do not have time to train anything else, and that plan assumes 2.500 SP from skilling spree.
 +
 +
===Trade===
 +
You can't run SoE Arc on your Alpha alt to boost standings of your main, since you can't log on with 2 Alpha accounts. But you can trade with me :)
 +
How it works:
 +
1. You run SoE on fresh alpha (be reasonable, train it for few days), and you finish it while my toon is in fleet - that way I get standings boost. Then you can scrap that alt.
 +
2. In return, I do the same - I finish Arc with toon chosen by you in fleet with me.
 +
We both get standings boost on our main accounts, while using Alpha accounts to help each other. I have SoE solved - I need one evening to run it for you, so whenever you are ready to trade - DM me on Discord :)

 +
{{Color box|Q: Why is it called 'tinker'?<br>
 +
Alecks Kautsuo: I have no idea}}
 +
 +
Tinker tank, idea that shouldn't work, but works. You use local tank (Armor/Shield Reps) or Remote Reps but instead of capacitor mods, you sacrifice High Slots for Cap transfers and you slap in some Egress Port Maximizer rigs to make it 'over-unity' efficient. Scary effective :D

=No L4 Sec, what do?=
 +
 +
===Huh?===
 +
If you really, really want to grind standings, and Corporation you want has no L4 Security agents, what's the best way to do it?
 +
 +
===L4 Mining Missions===
 +
[[File:MineDrill L4M.PNG|200px|thumb|none|L4 Mining Missions]]
 +
 +
Oh Bob, they are painful. I was running them in tanky Retriever, so not really the most efficient mining ship (but I'm not a miner), and here's what I found out:
 +
 +
* Ivestment required - 60M or so
 +
* Missions max 1 jump away
 +
* Relatively safe - no issues with rats, one failed gank attempt (got away with 3% hull or something like that)
 +
* Missions give 1.6% or 2.6% Corp Standings, but take between 40 to 80 minutes (AAARGH)
 +
* In total 20 missions were needed from 0.0 to 5.0 (with Social V and Connections IV)
 +
* Total time - around 5-6 normalized evenings of play :)
 +
 +
===L4 Distro Missions===
 +
[[File:Echelon L4D.PNG|200px|thumb|none|L4 Distros]]
 +
That was my second approach (and the Corp in question had no other L4 agents anyway). Swapped ship to Badger with Cloak trick ready and WCS in low slot. I juggled Expanded Cargo and IStabs depending on mission.
 +
 +
* Investment - 10M
 +
* Missions between 2 to 8 jumps away (3-4 being most common, YMMV)
 +
* I had to visit LowSec, (let's say 15% of missions), so ship losses were calculated
 +
* All L4 Distros give 1% (+/- 0.1) Corp standings, no matter distance and Security of target system. Missions took me between 7 to 15 minutes, depending on route.
 +
* Total of 51 missions were required. Ufff, that's a lot.
 +
* From 0 standings to 5.0 it took me 2-3 evenings from start to finish. Comparable to L4 Security, maybe tad slower.
 +
 +
===L3 Security Missions===
 +
[[File:DeepCore L3S.PNG|200px|thumb|none|L3 Security]]
 +
Surprising. L3 Security have almost the same standing rewards as L4s, but with correct ship (think of L4 capable ship with improved application) you can run them super fast - several of them are doable in 5-10 minutes.
 +
 +
* Investment - L4 ship, fix application
 +
* Missions couple of jumps away
 +
* Safe, keep in mind that speedtanking is worse and more webs/neuts than in L4s
 +
* Rewards between 0.3% and 3.5%, averaging roughly 2%
 +
* I've run 32 missions to get 5.0
 +
* I would say 2 evenings. But you need more missions than L4s, so higher chance of missions against factions
 +
 +
===But what about L4s?===
 +
[[File:Spacelane L4S.PNG|200px|thumb|none|L4 Security]]
 +
For completenes, stas about L4 Security:
 +
 +
* Investment - L4 ship
 +
* Couple of jumps, except few missions
 +
* Safe as L4s :D
 +
* Standings gains between 0.6% for Recon 3 up to 5.7% for Worlds and Angel Vaganza, average about 3%
 +
* You will need about 20 missions
 +
* 2 to 3 evenings, depending on missions
 +

=Epic Arcs in Praxis=
 +
 +
== Intro ==
 +
Hello,
 +
 +
In recent days/weeks I started getting the idea of getting 5.0 standings with all Empires. To be able to do that, I need to run all 4 Epic Arcs - which raised the questions 'Which ship?'. Since I'm not space-rich (yet), I thought of having one ship, able to do all Epic Arcs with relative ease. Currently I'm fresh after 'Syndication' (Gallente Arc), which was a walk in a park - since it might be useful to others, I decided to put this fit here on forum, together with some small guide for each Arc. Hopefully you will find it useful.
 +
 +
 +
Ship choice:
 +
 +
Quote from Wiki, from Studio 1 mission:
 +
You simply can't tank them with T1 battleship
 +
Well, challenge accepted :) I wanted to have the best tank possible, scarificing everything else. So I took Praxis. Why?, you might ask. Due to large amount of slots, I can put really nice tank on Prax - it takes 14 slots in total. It has low DPS (not abysmally low, but still), it's so slow that for practical purposes it's stationary, aligns in 9 seconds, has relatively short range - all to get good tank.
 +
 +
 +
The Fit
 +
Spoiler
 +
 +
Breakdown
 +
 +
Whoa, that's a stupid fit. Yes, it is. I will try to defend it a bit though :)
 +
 +
Low Slots:
 +
Ballistic Control System II - for some DPS, starightforward
 +
Co-Processor II - needed to fit the rest of stuff. Could be replaced by Meta without bigger issues.
 +
Capacitor Flux Coil II - cap is life. This fit eats capacitor in scary amounts - so we have to provide adequate recharge
 +
 +
Med Slots:
 +
Multispectrum Shield Hardener II - 2 for better measure. We need extremely huge resists, which means we have to fit a lot of hardeners here.
 +
Pith X-Type X-Large Shield Booster - base of our tank. The most expensive part of this fit, but cannot be replaced with anything else.4
 +
Copasetic Compact Shield Boost Amplifier - another base block of the tank. I briefly considered Deadspace modules, but for now it stays with Copas
 +
Large Micro Jump Drive - since we cannot move at all, at least we can MJD away. It's extremely useful in several missions.
 +
Missile Guidance Computer II - added for a bit of range, but it's unfitted for a lot of missions. Basically it's a spare slot for specific hardener.
 +
 +
High Slots:
 +
'Arbalest' Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher I - rapid heavies. For several reasons - it's easier to skill into, has better application than cruise missiles, range is comparable to drone control range. You can also choose damage type (useful) and does not use capacitor (crucial).
 +
Drone Link Augmentor I - self explanatory. We need more drone range.
 +
 +
Rigs:
 +
Large Capacitor Control Circuits - cap is life, so we do everything to get the most of it
 +
 +
Drones:
 +
Here I'm not set in stone yet. I took 4 Wardens, to match my missiles range, 5 Vespas to fly around if needed (rarely) and 3 Gardes, as I had no space for more. Wardens are way more useful, hance full flight (for available bandwidth).
 +
 +
Frigate Escape Bay:
 +
Important - Atron, with sub-2s align and MWD.
 +
 +
Cargo:
 +
Various modules needed for different missions. Currently shown set is for Gallente Arc only, as that's what I've done until that time.
 +
 +
 +
Strategy
 +
 +
It's very simple - warp into mission, MJD away, deploy Wardens, shoot. For some missions I decided to take out MJD for extra hardener - in these missions you can warp in at 100km (make 1-person fleet to do that) and do everything the same way. This strategy is slow and innefficient, but it's safe - I could tank everything without any issues. In 'Max Tank' mode, with 4 hardeners and Damage Control, I get 1750 EHP/s - it is enough to tank almost anything that Epic Arc throws at us. You will spend some time in mission - we have lower DPS than we should, and max speed of 90m/s - but speed or efficiency were not my targets.
 +
 +
 +
Skills
 +
 +
To fly this ship you need quite good skills - especially from Shields/Engineering/Missiles/Drones category. Base fit posted ^^ there gives me 945 EHP/s against uniform DPS, 310 DPS from missiles (incl. reload) and 216 DPS from Wardens - check if your number are in the same area. Engineering skills are needed for cap stability - with 4 hardeners this fit is stable at 30%, which means that every cycle of booster you get warning for low cap. It's tight.
 +
 +
 +
Conclusion
 +
 +
Can this fit be better?
 +
Sure. Feel free to improve it :) I'm terrible at fitting - and I will gladly read any comments to that fit. I will not change it though - this fit was used for Epic Arcs, and I do not consider any more testing in next 90 days :)
 +
 +
 +
Best,
 +
 +
Chris

Gallente Epic Arc
 +
 +
Preparations:
 +
Bring a ship :) Following guide is made specifically to my Prax fit, and assumes that you have all modules needed and can fly it reasonably well. Remember to stock up on missiles (mostly Scourges - around 10k, and around 2k of Novas and Mjolnirs) and remember to pick up modules after refits in stations - I had to backtrack couple of times to pick what I've left.
 +
 +
To Start this Arc you need Gallente at 5.0 or Impetus at 5.0 - I had Gallente, so I have no idea what agents from Impetus are available in HiSec.
 +
 +
 +
Mission Breakdown
 +
 +
I will go mission by mission here - some info might be unnecessary for you, so do what you want with it. Do not treat it as a complete guide - rather as supplement for Wiki, specific for Prax fit. All refits are relative to base fit.
 +
 +
 +
1. Impetus
 +
Travel mission only. For the first time you can fell how slow Praxis is - it will bother you by the time you finish this Arc :)
 +
 +
2. The Tolle Scar
 +
Combat mission against Rogue Drones. Take Mjolnir missiles, and you'll be fine - no big issues here. Amount of enemies I had was a bit more than on Wiki - take care.
 +
 +
3. Priority One
 +
Refit: - Drone Link Augmentor, + Salvager
 +
Combat is not needed in that mission. In first pocket you can avoid spawning enemies by MJDing away from gate, then forawrd-right at 45 degrees, then to gate. It takes 10 minutes though. For second pocket MJD away, then MJD to objective, and salvage it while tanking comfortably.
 +
 +
4. The Averon Exchange
 +
Mercenaries - Scourge missiles. Nothing difficult.
 +
 +
5. A Different Kinf of Director
 +
Travel only
 +
 +
6. Assistance
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener
 +
Warp in, then MJD away when Mercs spawn. Drop Wardens, and wait until they get in missiles range. If they are too close - pickup drones and MJD away. Reapeat until mission is finished.
 +
 +
7. The High or Low Road
 +
Obviously HighSec - we can fight a bit, but going to LowSec is rather risky :)
 +
 +
8. Into the Black
 +
Travel only
 +
 +
9. Poor Man's Shakedown
 +
Refit: -Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + MWD, + Explosive Shield Hardener
 +
Take Nova missiles, and do only what is necessary - destroy the structure which is needed for advancing a mission. Importnat - start mission with MWD offline, otherwise you will run out of cap. That's valid for all missions with MWD - it's used after clearing to move around, not during a fight.
 +
 +
10. Underground Circus
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener
 +
Strong damps - remember to set your drones on Aggro, they will continue to shoot even if you can't. [Not valid anymore. Pack 2000 Auto-Targeting Scourges and shoot away if damped] Strategy as always - drop Wardens/Gardes, if enemies are too close - pick them up and MJD away.
 +
 +
11. Intaki Chase
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener
 +
Do not trigger next waves and MJD when rats close to 30km and you'll be fine :) Contrary to Wiki, Cruisers will neut (Primary at all costs), and some damps are present. 4 Elite BS are not a problem, you can tank them without issues.
 +
 +
12. Rat in a Corner
 +
Travel only.
 +
 +
13. Place to Hide
 +
Pick little fingers next.
 +
 +
14. Little Fingers
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drice, + Kinetic Shield Hardener + MWD
 +
Easily tankable, easy mission overall. Remember to pick up Carry On Token fron fuel depot. MWD offline - remember.
 +
 +
15. Carry On
 +
Refit: Take Atron from Frigate bay, and Carry On Token. Blitz the mission - I had no issues at all (only one neut attempt) - and even if, Atron's are cheap :)
 +
 +
16. Studio 1
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control
 +
That's the hard one - we fit for max tank. I know, I know - dimishing returns, but at this point we have to. In first pocket enemies are split into 2 groups. Warp in at 100km, take out Cruisers first (Neut + Damp), and BSs will be easy. Warp out and repeat for second group. First group in second pocket - drop sentries, take Cruisers, Elite BS and the rest. Safe to tank.
 +
Before engaging Studio 1 - change refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener x2+ Kinetic Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control
 +
Create bookmarks as Wiki suggest - I made 3, but really used only 2. When enemies spawn, take Frigates out, and warp to bookmark. You need to take one BS when they approach, and you can safely tank remaining 5.
 +
 +
17. Showtime
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Explosive Shield Hardener x2, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control
 +
Another max tank, this time for Pator 6 BSes. Warp in at 100, take out Cruisers/Frigates, and you should be able to take out one BS before they close. After that you can tank it all. Leave one BS on grid and warp out to refit for rest of mission.
 +
Change refit to: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener x2+ Kinetic Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control
 +
Rest of this mission is easy - take out normal BS first, Rosulf Fririk last.
 +
 +
18. Where's the Line?
 +
Choose which ending you want - I did Gallente one.
 +
 +
19. Safe Return
 +
You need to deliver the kid - take Atron, and pick him up from Item hangar - you can leave Prax here, as you have to go back for final reward anyway.
 +
 +
 +
 +
And that's it - easy, isn't it?
 +
 +
 +
Best,
 +
 +
Chris

Wildfire
 +
Minmatar Epic Arc
 +
 +
Preparations:
 +
Some additional modules needed - analyzers, EM hardener, Olfei medallion and one Capacitor Flux Coil - not a big deal, most of the items are available in Arc area (at huge markups, so better bring them in).
 +
 +
To Start this Arc you need Minmatar at 5.0 or Brutor Tribe at 5.0.
 +
 +
Keep in mind - you will lose around 0.03 standings with Ammar and Ammatar factions. Not a huge hit, but be aware of it.
 +
 +
 +
Mission Breakdown
 +
 +
Mission by mission - I wrote a bit more than last time, hopefully useful things. Again - it's not a walkthough, it's more of my journal which can supplement Wiki.
 +
 +
 +
1. A Demonstration
 +
If you have Olfei Medallion, mission is done - so bring one :)
 +
 +
2. The Cost of Preservation
 +
Refit: - Micro Jump Drive, + Micro Warp Drive
 +
Warp in, shoot Ailon Boufin until reinforcement spawn, take them out, shoot Ailon again - contrary to Wiki, there are 2 waves of reinforcements. Have your MWD offlined, otherwise you will cap out quickly. Frigs and Cruisers hate your drones - watch out for them.
 +
 +
3. Written By The Victors
 +
Refit: - Missile guidance computer, + Explosive Shield Hardener
 +
MJD away, MJD in to mission objective. Remeber to loot conents - needed for next mission. Tank everything - if needed take out scramming frigate.
 +
 +
4. Glowing Embers
 +
Travel only - go with Prax, next mission requires some combat. Complete this mission remotely, and remotely accept next one.
 +
 +
5. From Way Above
 +
Full tank - mission does not require moving at all. Shoot waves as they come along. Remeber to take Nova missiles. If you will find yourself surrounded by enemies - warp out, and warp in at 100km - I did it more or less when final wave spawned. If needed, you can then warp to asteroid colony - but you should not have too many ships left.
 +
 +
6. Friends In High Places
 +
Travel only - go with Prax, remotely Accept/Complete
 +
 +
7. My Little Eye
 +
Travel only.
 +
 +
8. Dead End Intercept
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Explosive Shield Hardener x2
 +
Only one ship - shoot it :)
 +
 +
9. Surfacing
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener
 +
Take the mission item from Tili's Brothel, and shoot waves as they appear - biggest ships last, as they are triggers. Remember to switch to Scourge.
 +
 +
10. Who Art in Heaven
 +
Refit: Take Atron
 +
Blitz - warp in at 100km, fly away from Archeology Outpost to get to 150km then warp to outpost, then warp out.
 +
 +
11. Playing All Their Cards
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Explosive Shield Hardener, + Data Analyzer, - Ballistic Control System + Damage Control
 +
Warp in, approach can (go as close as you can, don't stop at 5km) and hack away. I managed to do it at 3rd or 4th time - still safe for tanking. I would suggest taking out scrams when they start scramming you - I got only 1 Frigate (Thug - Rogues [3] also scram). After Hacking I warped away. Total DPS of pocket might be too much for the tank I fitted - so hack quickly, or warp away and slowly clear the pocket. This one was not tested as much as I would like it :/
 +
 +
12. History In The Making
 +
Travel
 +
 +
13. Church Of The Obsidian
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Relic Analyzer, - Ballistic Control System + Damage Control
 +
Tough one. In first pocket go for the gate (you need to kill two webbing and one scramming frigate - 0.03 Ammar standings lost), in second pocket there are no scrams -that's good. Pocket DPS is 1532, my boost was 1415 EHP (1770 with overheated Hardeners) - in case of problems warp out. When you warp into pocket, start aligning to anything away from can - to lure enemies out, then warp off and back. I was able to tank it, so check your boosts in Pyfa against Ammar damage profile. Apocs have short range (13km), so use them as guideline when to warp out. Killing should be avoided, as you'll lose Ammar standings (wiki says Ammatar - wrong).
 +
 +
14. Heresiology
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Relic Analyzer, - Ballistic Control System + Damage Control
 +
Similar to previous one, but has way less DPS. Fit the same as before (comfortably this time), but still takes time to run - 4 cans to hack for me. You need to kill web and scram (this time Ammatar standings lost). Semi-deadspace - warp in at 100 in Atron, move out until you get to 200km, make bookmark, swap to Prax, and then you can warp to bookmark and back to cans.
 +
 +
15. Wildfire
 +
Refit: Take Atron
 +
Take mission item, place in box, warp out.
 +
 +
16. Stillwater
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Explosive Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Capacitor Flux Coil
 +
Additional Flux coil against neuts. Take out Elite Frigates and neuting sentry first, then proceed as usual - drop sentries, shoot Nova missiles, MJD away if enemies are too close.
 +
 +
17. With Great Power
 +
Branch - I choose Revelation - standings, mmm.

18. Revelation
 +
Travel only.
 +
 +
 +
 +
Another Arc done. This was comparable to Gallente - probably more DPS in one mission, and a lot more travelling and hacking - but Prax did it fine. I lost one drone though :(

Right to Rule
 +
Amarr Epic Arc
 +
 +
Preparations:
 +
After previous two arcs, this one doesn't need anyrthing special. This one is rather long, and has a lot of combat missions - pack Mjolnirs, as much as you can. It doesn't help that Amarr is kinda far now, and markets are scarce - sometimes wyou will need to make few jumps for another batch of missiles.
 +
 +
To Start this Arc you need Amarr at 5.0 or Ministry of Internal Order at 5.0.
 +
 +
Na standings hit to other factions, fortunately.
 +
 +
 +
Mission Breakdown
 +
 +
Mission by mission - this time I overestimated what I'll meet, so in few cases I've rune 'overtanked' setup - still safe, but more time consuming. Next time I'll check 'minimum' tank required.
 +
 +
 +
1. Aiding an Investigator
 +
Travel
 +
 +
2. Late Reports
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener
 +
Remember this refit - most missions are against Sansha, so will be used a lot. I had a bit over 1200 EHP/s vs. Sansha damage profile. Also load Mjolnir missiles. Overall easy mission, we can tank everything.
 +
 +
3. The Outclassed Outpost
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener
 +
Mission very similiar to previous one - same advice applies
 +
 +
4. Raging Sansha
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control
 +
Well, you can guess how this mission looks like :) Damage Control goes in - quite a bit more of ships than previously. Mind the triggers - Centum Beast/Juggernaut and Sansha Commander last. Watch out for drones - they kinda hate them.
 +
 +
5. Cowardly Commander
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Capacitor Flux Coil
 +
This one is significantly tougher. First 3 pockets are the same as previously, but have neuts (according to Wiki - I did not get neuted at all) - in last pocket keep an eye on them, as they are also triggers, so leave last one alive, and take out the rest. With additional Capacitor Flux Coil we have 35GJ/s spare, so should be enough - no prop mod though.
 +
 +
6. Aralin Jick
 +
Travel only - go with Prax, remotely Accept/Complete
 +
 +
7. Background Check
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener
 +
Follow Wiki advice - mind the triggers. Wiki is a little wrong about spawning in that mission - you will get more ships spawned than you plan to, but don't worry, Prax is tanky :)
 +
 +
8. Longing Leman
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Micro Jump Drive, - Ballistic Coontrol System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Data Analyzer, + Damage Control
 +
Fit Data analyzer, jump into mission, hack, warp off. Should be done before enemies approach. If they do - don't worry, hack until it's done :)
 +
 +
9. Languishing Lord
 +
Refit: Take Atron
 +
Travel, kinda. Go to mission location, apporach target, do not engage, wait for completion of mission.
 +
 +
10. Razing the Outpost
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + Kinetic Shield Hardener
 +
Mercenaries this time - remember to switch hardeners, and take Scourge missiles. Easy if you watch triggers. I 'blitzed' 3rd pocket - after arriving I dropped Wardens and started shooting Outpost - when it went down I warped off.
 +
 +
11. Ascending Nobles
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control
 +
Back to standard refit with DC. Elite BS in first wave hit hard, but we have good tank and they need to close to us - so remove some of them before they get close, or MJD away. Wardens make your life easier, use them. Second wave neuts quite a lot - so try to stay at long range - neuts start when they are around 30km from you. I managed to kill 6 of them before first neuts reached me, so it's not an issue.
 +
 +
12. Hunting the Hunter
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control
 +
We fit for tank to speed up the mission. You have to clear warp-in, in first pocket you only need to destroy Battletower (do not attack anything else) to unlock the gate, in second pocket destroy Rahsa's Battleship and grab him from wreck.
 +
 +
13. Fate of a Madman
 +
I've chosen 'Interrogation' - for Amarr standings.
 +
 +
14. Catching the Scent
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control
 +
Easy peasy. Follow wiki advice, and leave one Cruiser and one BS from initial group to control spawns. Bring a lot of Mjolnirs :)
 +
 +
15. Falling into Place
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener
 +
Deliver Gizmo and kill some ships. Easy enough that we can take BCS to run it faster.
 +
 +
16. Making an Arrest
 +
Travel, but I went with Prax - next mission is Palas, it was closer. Can be done in Atron - but park Prax close to Palas to reduce travel, and go with Atron/Shuttle back to Nishah to turn the mission.
 +
 +
17. An Unfortunate End
 +
Travel Only
 +
 +
18. Panic Response
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Capacitor Flux Coil
 +
Extra Flux coil - expected neuts. Mission is finished when Centus Tyrant is destroyed, which is the easiest way.
 +
 +
19. The Right to Rule
 +
Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener
 +
Not hard, but extremely long. Warpin and first two pockets are nothing special, in third engage BS, when reinforcements spawn get rid of them, engage BS again. In fourth pocket MJD away, to draw Harkan towards you (he's faster than others) - I repeated this 2 times, then killed him without caring for reinforcements - he went down before they could get me. Bring load of Mjolnirs, you'll need them.
 +
 +
 +
 +
Ufff, that was something. Compared to Gallente/Minmatar this one was way way longer for my Prax - it should go fairly well in reasonable BS, which should have more DPS than I did. Well, for the next time I'll try something else maybe.
 +
 +
 +
Best,
 +
 +
Chris
 +
 +
==Penumbra==
 +
Penumbra
 +
Caldari Epic Arc
 +
 +
Preparations:
 +
This the fastest arc to run - it has mostly travel/courier missions, and only 3 combat missions (in 2 of them you need to kill only 1 ship). As a bonus, it has 3 missions with travel to LowSec, carrying mission items - if you lose them, the arc is over, sadly. Take care with these - I did it in the shuttle around DT, but Sunesis might be actually better.
 +
 +
To Start this Arc you need Cadari at 5.0 or Expert Distribution at 5.0.
 +
 +
Na standings hit to other factions if you're careful - few missions have Gallente ships.
 +
 +
 +
Mission Breakdown
 +
 +
Mission by mission - travel mostly, so not much refitting.
 +
 +
 +
1. The Intermediary
 +
Travel to Poinen. Take Prax, one jump is not much.
 +
 +
2. Trust And Discretion
 +
Courier mission - easy, then complete and request next one remotely.
 +
 +
3. Their loss, our profit.
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + Kinetic Shield Hardener
 +
Rather easy mission against Serpentis. I started by going 30km away from target, then MJDing in. Then destroy Research Facility (it has a lot of HP - took me 3 reloads of missiles), pick mission item (in can about 30km from you), warp out. If needed/bored - destroy some ships :)
 +
 +
4. The Paths That Are Hidden
 +
Refit: Shuttle
 +
Branching paths. I've chosen "An Honorable Betrayal", for Hyasyoda path - but any path gives the same standings, so it's up to you. For Hyasyoda take S.I. thingy.
 +
 +
5. Proof of Intent
 +
If you have S.I. Fromula Sheet, Accept Mission and complete right away.
 +
 +
6. Return to Isha
 +
Travel back to Poinen - lot of flying here.
 +
 +
7. Playing it Safer
 +
Travel to LowSec. That's quite important to do it proper - I went in shuttle, and got smartbombed on my way back. If you lose the mission item - you will not be able to complete the mission, so it's actually better to do that mission in sub-2 align ship with the most tank you can have - Sunesis being a good option
 +
 +
8. Almost Unmasked
 +
Refit: Take Praxis this time[/size]
 +
Another travel, but this time we will need Prax, so take it before going to Wuos
 +
 +
9. Some Light Theatrics
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, -Micro Jump Drive, + Data Analyzer, + Micro Warp Drive
 +
Take Data Analyzer - there's a can to hack. After hacking you have 30 seconds to get 10km out - MWD away and you'll be fine :) Do not warp off, mission will not complete in that case.
 +
 +
10. Untouchable
 +
Travel to Poinen - bring Prax with you.
 +
 +
11. A General's Best Friend
 +
Refit: Atron
 +
Blitz it! To avoid Gallente hit, take Atron and go as fast as you can to acceleration gate. Second pocket is safe, approach Caldari Navy Outpost to start convo and mission is done.
 +
 +
12. Meet Sinas
 +
Another travel mission - go to Sinas, talk to him, mission's over.
 +
 +
13. Right Tool for the Job
 +
Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Micro Jump Drive, - Ballistic Control System, + Data Analyzer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Micro Warp Drive, + Damage Control
 +
That's a weird one. I wanted to avoid Gallente standings hit, so I refit for tank (to sustain everything instead of shooting it) and MWD. Blitz strategy from Wiki - warp in and MWD towards shipyard frigates/can, while ignoring the rest. When you will be at the can, OFFLINE MWD, otherwise your tank will eat your cap. Hack and loot the can, warp off.
 +
 +
14. The Breakout
 +
Refit: Shuttle
 +
This mission requires probing and hacking and combat... or quick trip to Perimeter, where for 20M you can buy mission item to hand it in. I did it this way - and shuttle is required for next 3 missions, so park your Prax (I picked Tsuruma)
 +
 +
15. Whisper of a Conspiracy
 +
Travel to 'somewhere' - in my case LowSec 4 jumps deep. I took shuttle and paid attention while going in - no camps, low number of players, so I decided to run for it. Remember - if you lose mission item on way back to Sinas, you'll fail Epic Arc.
 +
 +
16. Practical Solutions
 +
Travel again, this time Hisec. Shuttle is perfectly fine.
 +
 +
17. Forewarning
 +
Again, LowSec travel. You need to bring mission item - as always, don't lose it :) I did this mission just before DT - less players, less risk. Take tankier ship or scout if in doubt.
 +
 +
18. The Knowledge to Act
 +
Branch for Hyasyoda line - of course we pick Slipping Away, to get Hyasyoda BPC
 +
 +
19. Slipping Away
 +
Travel back to Wuos - bring Prax, needed for last mission
 +
 +
20. Across the Line
 +
Reft: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Damage Control
 +
Quite hard mission. What I did: warp to 100km, and move away (so you'll be 150km from cargo) then warp to cargo and engage Caretaker - enemies will spawn. Immediately MJD away - Caretaker is faster than other, so shoot him when he apporaches. When frigs will be close, MJD away again (at that point Caretaker was at 75% hull) - and repeat, until Caretaker is destroyed. Afterward warp to cargo, pick the Family and warp off.
 +
 +
 +
That finishes all my Epic adventures - hope you did not get too bored :D
 +
 +
 +
Best,
 +

Super Simple Salvage Split Solution

  • If dedicated salvager runs during fleet - they get double share for all missions
  • If dedicated salvager stays after fleet is finished - they get double share for all missions
  • If someone runs missions, and then goes salvaging - they get double share for all missions
  • If no dedicated salvager - bookmarks are donated to shared folder, at least 30 minutes before despawn


Evergreen Skill Plan

EvergreenSkillPlan.PNG

Evergreen Skill Plan is my take on skills that you should train in the beginning. Feel free to modify it according to your taste - I find it a bit better than Pyramid Skill Plan - it covers more or less the same skills, but in different order.


Update: All skill plans are available in "Evergreen Skill Plan" chat channel in game :)


My general recommendation is to train Short Skill Plan, then Root skills. After that select your tank type and main weapon system, put both skill lists into queue, and start training from shortest skills - starting from short skills gives you the most gain in short time, and you'll gradually improve tank/weapon skills. You can also include Support skills list into that if you wish - I trained it after T2 tank. Later you can finish with T2 weapon support skills, and add Drones - for majority of ships at BC+ size drones are useful to have.

What these lists do not include, are skills for specific weapons - train them up to lvl III if you need them, to lvl V + Specialization if you really love them and they will become your main weapons. Don't be afraid to test different weapons systems - you might find that you prefer one over another. I also did not include ship skills - train them when you feel like flying different ships :)


Bottom line: If you need some skills to fly a new ship - train them and have fun, don't let this plan limit what you can do!



Root skills are almost the same as pyramid base - these skills are universally useful, I highly recommend training them first. I know that CPU/PG Management V are long trains, but this really opens up your fitting possibilities.

T2 Tank skills - you don't need to train both types of tanks in the beginning. If you focus mainly on one type of tank, feel free to ignore the second one, and train it later. T2 tank skills are very useful - I recommend having them trained when you start flying in BCs.

T2 Shield

Skills for T2 Shield Tank. If you fly mainly shield tanked ships - it's a must [15d5h]

T1 Weapon systems - again, at first you do not have to train everything. If you choose one weapon system you like the most, train support skills for that system first. For Launchers and Turrets you also need to add specific skills - I have not included them here, since that depends a lot on your preference and play style.

T1 Missiles

Support skills for missiles launchers. Good for start.[9d]

T2 Wepons support skills - if you have found your favourite weapon system, train specific weapon skill to V, and then specialization - you will be able to use T2 variant of such weapon. Additionally, finish training support skill to lvl V. Below skill list do not contain every support skill - train to V if you wish :)

Rigs and Compensations skills get their own category. Most of them are not useful - for example EX shield amplifiers are almost not used, so it doesn't make sense to train them. If you use rigs from specific category (for example Shield rigs) - train these. The same with Compensation skills - if you use specific module (for example EM shield resistance amplifier is quite common) train only specific skill.

Is that plan good? I don't really know. I find split for 2 different tank types and T1/T2 split of weapon systems to be eaiser to manage than pyramid. It's not complete - it does not include every skill (byt the time you are at that point, you should have good feeling what to train) and does not have EWAR/Tackle/Logi skills - by design, as I find their inclusion in basic skill plan for new players to be mistake. These skills are important - but I've seen new players training EWAR, because it's in the pyramid, before training any weapon skills - which is a mistake. If you want to specialize in these roles - Pyramid Skill Plan is your friend.

My mission ships

Lazy Gila

Cheap and easy to fly - for a L4 runner. Manages to run all L4s without big issues - some of them require manual flying, but nothing really bad should happen. Important to note - webs are super dangerous, as it relies heavily on speed tanking.

NOTES
  • Cap stability with AB on is crucial
  • Good Drone skills will improve completion times, but are not strictly necessary.


A bit of breakdown:

High slots: RLMLs - I use T2s, but you can load Arbalests if you don't have skills. On Gila missiles are used only to get frigates down - they have very low DPS compared to drones, so it's not super important. Link Augmentor I, as II will push CPU to dangerous areas.


Med slots: All dedicated to tank. Large Shield Extender IIs would be enough, but Caldari version uses less CPU, which helps. AB chosen to be cap stable - you can use any type, but cap stability is very important - you need to move fast all the time, otherwise you will have a bad day.


Low slots: All DPS. I considered briefly Federation variant, but that's bling for not much gain - in the end I skipped it. Take it if you want it.


Rigs: Unfortunately set of Purgers II is required to tank all L4s. Rather expensive, but take them, do not downgrade to Is


Drones: Sets of T2s - I prefer Vespas over all other types, as they have decent DPS, Kinetic is 'good enough' for missions, and Vespas are shield tanked - they survive almost anything.


Cargo: Same story - Kinetic is good enough, and carrying 4 types of missiles is cumbersome. Or I'm too lazy for it :P I usually use normal missiles or Furies, auto-targeting might be useful when damped/jammed - that rarely happens.


Other Notes: Fit is over CPU - I need EE-603 for it. If you want to avoid having implant, then Arbalests are required. Fit is perfectly fine with Navy Drones, and you can even Meta-down shield modules - but I would recommend taking Damage Control II in low slot. Overall if tank is not compromised, you will be fine in all missions - maybe slower with such changes. I tested all L4s with shield skills on IV - so max skills are not needed by any means.

That's a completely different beast. Active tank, to get 2 utility med slots, Heavy Missiles for more DPS, and bling all over the place, to make it fit on CPU. It also assumes you have at least Med-grade Hydra set (and High-grade being better) to fix application of missiles and drones and heavy missile hardwirings. It can spit out 916 DPS with Hammerheads and Fury missiles, has adequate tank and looks great in black SKIN. Costs 6 Billions together with implants, so be careful :P I do not recommend that ship, unless you obey rule 0 (Fly what you can afford to lose), and losing 2B ship and 4B pod is not a big deal for you.

For cheaper option (probably more reasonable too) swap Heavy Missiles to RLMLs - then you can take 3x DDA II in low slots, Drone Link Augmentor II in high slot, and replace sensor booster with Omni Tracking link - that way Hydras are not needed, and it uses up 99.37% of available CPU, which works ok. Also take T2 drones, not Augs. That lowers the price to 750-ish M, and DPS to 760.


Land Speeder

Big, bad and ugly. This Machariel chews through rats, flies fast and is super fun to play. Probably overtanked, a bit blingy, requires EE-605. It's my second most used ship after Gila, but requires your attention - no coffee breaks during missions :)

Ploy

Below Fit is deprecated due to absurd price of X-Lager Pith-X Shield Booster. New version below.

Stupidly tanked Praxis, for running Epic Arcs. It can run all of them, doesn't require perfect skills (Shield skills at IV) and is designed to survive every mission in Epic Arcs. Some (Studio 1) are tricky, but all of them are doable solo. Tested here.

Additionally, you will need Atron (or other frigate) fit for sub-2s align and MWD in your frigate escape bay. With that set all Epic Arcs are yours :)

Future plans

Cerberus - almost made, but lacking skills. Due to last changes without MWD, but with 100MN AB - should be fun when I finally build it.

Nighthawk - in plans, as a booster for mission fleets, and as a test 'How absurdly can you passive tank' - against Serpentis it has more than 1k EHP/s :D

Q-Click-Click

What's that?

Q-Click-Click, officially called 'using Approach hotkey' is superior way of manual piloting. It allows to manually go to any point in space, without moving your camera. This allows to move around grid with ease, while having good view of space around you.

How you do that?

As name suggest, you hold 'Q' (default keybind for 'Approach') and click twice.

1. Hold Q

Holding Q


2. First click determines your 'direction' and distance you want to travel, then you can select 'elevation' of your path. Notice how diameter of circle (distance) doesn't change.

First Click


3. Second click determines confirms destination and your ships starts to move

Second Click


4. Keep in mind - target point distance is set by first click - if you reach it, your ship will stop

Ship stopping


5. Useful for aligning down the gates

Approaching


6. If you hold Q and doubleclick on any object, you will start direct approach to that object

Aligning


It requires getting used to - but is really great when it comes to manual piloting :)


Quick OBS setup guide

What's OBS?

It's a freeware software for screen capture - has many useful features, but I'll cover here simple setup to grab your screen :)


Steps

1. Go to https://obsproject.com/ and download OBS for your OS

2. Install it

3. Launch OBS - you will see that screen: (you can re-launch it via Tool -> Auto configuration wizard)

4. Select "Optimize just for recording"

6Lvex4i.png


5. On next screen, select which resolution OSB should use. "Use Current" selects current screen settings, dropdown lists other options (other screens or resolutions)

FLqb1cL.png


6. Last screen will show summary, should look like that. Click Apply settings.

rAGK1PC.png


7. IMPORTANT STEP - in mixer (middle bottom) mute your Mic/Aux - otherwise OBS will also capture your mic input. You can mute (or not) Desktop Audio - that's your audio output - it will contain game sounds, but also voice of others from mumble, so if you're in comms, mute that also

YHBWZXt.png


8. In sources window (bottom) click "+" icon

ZoMRf9A.png


9. In expanded list, select "Display Capture"

QVx8J57.png


10. Click OK in next two dialogs

piLPr1m.png

jAzSqkM.png


11. Go to Settings -> Output and select output directory

vZY1IDK.png


12. Done. When you press "Start Recording" it will record your screen, until you press stop :) Be careful though, as it will also record other things on your screen, like your desktop. Setting it up the so it won't is left as excercise to the reader :)


SoE Blitz

The Challenge

SoE Epic Arc can be blitzed. Pretty impressive times can be reached, using Interceptors/T3Ds/other advanced ships. The Challenge which I wanted to accomplish is to speedrun SoE Epic Arc counting from Character Generation - you start up new Alpha toon, and your only objective is to finish that Epic Arc. You can set up whatever you need in advance, but all missions have to be done solo. Can you beat me?


Stats

1. 6h 51m First run - completely without preparation, including some Jita shipping - 6h 51m. That includes shipping time, figuring out skills, fumbling with corp invite, all that stuff. Super un-optimized, it was just a test run to check how fast you can get enough skills to beat Dagan.

2. 3h 57m Second run - timed from start of character creation to entering biomassing queue. I bothed the skills a bit, and probably I could squeeze our couple minutes from that time, but I consided 4h to be reasonable for blitz :)

Strats

1. Ship choice To run that arc fast, I need two ships. One fast ship, and one tough ship. For fast ship, I opted for Merlin - fresh toons have gunnery skills already trained, so I can use small hybrids right away. It's fitted and rigged for warp speed, as due to low skills I cannot make it sub3s. Also Expanded Cargohold is needed, due to one mission requiring moving 150m3 of materials.

For tough ship I chose Gnosis. I do not need any skills to fly it, and craptastic RLML fit had barely enough DPS to kill Dagan. In fact I'm using 2 different fits - one for Arnon (where I need AB and better tank for Dagan) and one for 4 (!) other Gnosises, located around SoE mission areas (Harerget, Hatakani, Hek, Lisudeh) - that saves on travel time with Gnosis. Each one is parked and waiting for me while I travel in Merlin

2. Skills Missile Launcher II Light Missiles I Light Drones I Social I Social II

Aaaand that's all. You do not have time to train anything else, and that plan assumes 2.500 SP from skilling spree.

Trade

You can't run SoE Arc on your Alpha alt to boost standings of your main, since you can't log on with 2 Alpha accounts. But you can trade with me :) How it works: 1. You run SoE on fresh alpha (be reasonable, train it for few days), and you finish it while my toon is in fleet - that way I get standings boost. Then you can scrap that alt. 2. In return, I do the same - I finish Arc with toon chosen by you in fleet with me. We both get standings boost on our main accounts, while using Alpha accounts to help each other. I have SoE solved - I need one evening to run it for you, so whenever you are ready to trade - DM me on Discord :)

Tinker Tank

Q: Why is it called 'tinker'?
Alecks Kautsuo: I have no idea

Tinker tank, idea that shouldn't work, but works. You use local tank (Armor/Shield Reps) or Remote Reps but instead of capacitor mods, you sacrifice High Slots for Cap transfers and you slap in some Egress Port Maximizer rigs to make it 'over-unity' efficient. Scary effective :D

  • 5 cap transfers + X-Large Guristas Booster. It's CAP STABLE!!! Awesome :D Unfortunately you don't get any high slots, all sacrificed for cap. Fit can be used for multiboxing AFK mission fleets, as that was it's original purpose.

  • Domi with Remote Reps. You need more than one to get cap stable, but when you get it - it's awesome. Similar to Praxis in a way, and probably a bit better.


No L4 Sec, what do?

Huh?

If you really, really want to grind standings, and Corporation you want has no L4 Security agents, what's the best way to do it?

L4 Mining Missions

L4 Mining Missions

Oh Bob, they are painful. I was running them in tanky Retriever, so not really the most efficient mining ship (but I'm not a miner), and here's what I found out:

  • Ivestment required - 60M or so
  • Missions max 1 jump away
  • Relatively safe - no issues with rats, one failed gank attempt (got away with 3% hull or something like that)
  • Missions give 1.6% or 2.6% Corp Standings, but take between 40 to 80 minutes (AAARGH)
  • In total 20 missions were needed from 0.0 to 5.0 (with Social V and Connections IV)
  • Total time - around 5-6 normalized evenings of play :)

L4 Distro Missions

L4 Distros

That was my second approach (and the Corp in question had no other L4 agents anyway). Swapped ship to Badger with Cloak trick ready and WCS in low slot. I juggled Expanded Cargo and IStabs depending on mission.

  • Investment - 10M
  • Missions between 2 to 8 jumps away (3-4 being most common, YMMV)
  • I had to visit LowSec, (let's say 15% of missions), so ship losses were calculated
  • All L4 Distros give 1% (+/- 0.1) Corp standings, no matter distance and Security of target system. Missions took me between 7 to 15 minutes, depending on route.
  • Total of 51 missions were required. Ufff, that's a lot.
  • From 0 standings to 5.0 it took me 2-3 evenings from start to finish. Comparable to L4 Security, maybe tad slower.

L3 Security Missions

L3 Security

Surprising. L3 Security have almost the same standing rewards as L4s, but with correct ship (think of L4 capable ship with improved application) you can run them super fast - several of them are doable in 5-10 minutes.

  • Investment - L4 ship, fix application
  • Missions couple of jumps away
  • Safe, keep in mind that speedtanking is worse and more webs/neuts than in L4s
  • Rewards between 0.3% and 3.5%, averaging roughly 2%
  • I've run 32 missions to get 5.0
  • I would say 2 evenings. But you need more missions than L4s, so higher chance of missions against factions

But what about L4s?

L4 Security

For completenes, stas about L4 Security:

  • Investment - L4 ship
  • Couple of jumps, except few missions
  • Safe as L4s :D
  • Standings gains between 0.6% for Recon 3 up to 5.7% for Worlds and Angel Vaganza, average about 3%
  • You will need about 20 missions
  • 2 to 3 evenings, depending on missions

Epic Arcs in Praxis

Intro

Hello,

In recent days/weeks I started getting the idea of getting 5.0 standings with all Empires. To be able to do that, I need to run all 4 Epic Arcs - which raised the questions 'Which ship?'. Since I'm not space-rich (yet), I thought of having one ship, able to do all Epic Arcs with relative ease. Currently I'm fresh after 'Syndication' (Gallente Arc), which was a walk in a park - since it might be useful to others, I decided to put this fit here on forum, together with some small guide for each Arc. Hopefully you will find it useful.


Ship choice:

Quote from Wiki, from Studio 1 mission: You simply can't tank them with T1 battleship Well, challenge accepted :) I wanted to have the best tank possible, scarificing everything else. So I took Praxis. Why?, you might ask. Due to large amount of slots, I can put really nice tank on Prax - it takes 14 slots in total. It has low DPS (not abysmally low, but still), it's so slow that for practical purposes it's stationary, aligns in 9 seconds, has relatively short range - all to get good tank.


The Fit Spoiler

Breakdown

Whoa, that's a stupid fit. Yes, it is. I will try to defend it a bit though :)

Low Slots: Ballistic Control System II - for some DPS, starightforward Co-Processor II - needed to fit the rest of stuff. Could be replaced by Meta without bigger issues. Capacitor Flux Coil II - cap is life. This fit eats capacitor in scary amounts - so we have to provide adequate recharge

Med Slots: Multispectrum Shield Hardener II - 2 for better measure. We need extremely huge resists, which means we have to fit a lot of hardeners here. Pith X-Type X-Large Shield Booster - base of our tank. The most expensive part of this fit, but cannot be replaced with anything else.4 Copasetic Compact Shield Boost Amplifier - another base block of the tank. I briefly considered Deadspace modules, but for now it stays with Copas Large Micro Jump Drive - since we cannot move at all, at least we can MJD away. It's extremely useful in several missions. Missile Guidance Computer II - added for a bit of range, but it's unfitted for a lot of missions. Basically it's a spare slot for specific hardener.

High Slots: 'Arbalest' Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher I - rapid heavies. For several reasons - it's easier to skill into, has better application than cruise missiles, range is comparable to drone control range. You can also choose damage type (useful) and does not use capacitor (crucial). Drone Link Augmentor I - self explanatory. We need more drone range.

Rigs: Large Capacitor Control Circuits - cap is life, so we do everything to get the most of it

Drones: Here I'm not set in stone yet. I took 4 Wardens, to match my missiles range, 5 Vespas to fly around if needed (rarely) and 3 Gardes, as I had no space for more. Wardens are way more useful, hance full flight (for available bandwidth).

Frigate Escape Bay: Important - Atron, with sub-2s align and MWD.

Cargo: Various modules needed for different missions. Currently shown set is for Gallente Arc only, as that's what I've done until that time.


Strategy

It's very simple - warp into mission, MJD away, deploy Wardens, shoot. For some missions I decided to take out MJD for extra hardener - in these missions you can warp in at 100km (make 1-person fleet to do that) and do everything the same way. This strategy is slow and innefficient, but it's safe - I could tank everything without any issues. In 'Max Tank' mode, with 4 hardeners and Damage Control, I get 1750 EHP/s - it is enough to tank almost anything that Epic Arc throws at us. You will spend some time in mission - we have lower DPS than we should, and max speed of 90m/s - but speed or efficiency were not my targets.


Skills

To fly this ship you need quite good skills - especially from Shields/Engineering/Missiles/Drones category. Base fit posted ^^ there gives me 945 EHP/s against uniform DPS, 310 DPS from missiles (incl. reload) and 216 DPS from Wardens - check if your number are in the same area. Engineering skills are needed for cap stability - with 4 hardeners this fit is stable at 30%, which means that every cycle of booster you get warning for low cap. It's tight.


Conclusion

Can this fit be better? Sure. Feel free to improve it :) I'm terrible at fitting - and I will gladly read any comments to that fit. I will not change it though - this fit was used for Epic Arcs, and I do not consider any more testing in next 90 days :)


Best,

Chris

Syndication

Syndication Gallente Epic Arc

Preparations: Bring a ship :) Following guide is made specifically to my Prax fit, and assumes that you have all modules needed and can fly it reasonably well. Remember to stock up on missiles (mostly Scourges - around 10k, and around 2k of Novas and Mjolnirs) and remember to pick up modules after refits in stations - I had to backtrack couple of times to pick what I've left.

To Start this Arc you need Gallente at 5.0 or Impetus at 5.0 - I had Gallente, so I have no idea what agents from Impetus are available in HiSec.


Mission Breakdown

I will go mission by mission here - some info might be unnecessary for you, so do what you want with it. Do not treat it as a complete guide - rather as supplement for Wiki, specific for Prax fit. All refits are relative to base fit.


1. Impetus Travel mission only. For the first time you can fell how slow Praxis is - it will bother you by the time you finish this Arc :)

2. The Tolle Scar Combat mission against Rogue Drones. Take Mjolnir missiles, and you'll be fine - no big issues here. Amount of enemies I had was a bit more than on Wiki - take care.

3. Priority One Refit: - Drone Link Augmentor, + Salvager Combat is not needed in that mission. In first pocket you can avoid spawning enemies by MJDing away from gate, then forawrd-right at 45 degrees, then to gate. It takes 10 minutes though. For second pocket MJD away, then MJD to objective, and salvage it while tanking comfortably.

4. The Averon Exchange Mercenaries - Scourge missiles. Nothing difficult.

5. A Different Kinf of Director Travel only

6. Assistance Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener Warp in, then MJD away when Mercs spawn. Drop Wardens, and wait until they get in missiles range. If they are too close - pickup drones and MJD away. Reapeat until mission is finished.

7. The High or Low Road Obviously HighSec - we can fight a bit, but going to LowSec is rather risky :)

8. Into the Black Travel only

9. Poor Man's Shakedown Refit: -Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + MWD, + Explosive Shield Hardener Take Nova missiles, and do only what is necessary - destroy the structure which is needed for advancing a mission. Importnat - start mission with MWD offline, otherwise you will run out of cap. That's valid for all missions with MWD - it's used after clearing to move around, not during a fight.

10. Underground Circus Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener Strong damps - remember to set your drones on Aggro, they will continue to shoot even if you can't. [Not valid anymore. Pack 2000 Auto-Targeting Scourges and shoot away if damped] Strategy as always - drop Wardens/Gardes, if enemies are too close - pick them up and MJD away.

11. Intaki Chase Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener Do not trigger next waves and MJD when rats close to 30km and you'll be fine :) Contrary to Wiki, Cruisers will neut (Primary at all costs), and some damps are present. 4 Elite BS are not a problem, you can tank them without issues.

12. Rat in a Corner Travel only.

13. Place to Hide Pick little fingers next.

14. Little Fingers Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drice, + Kinetic Shield Hardener + MWD Easily tankable, easy mission overall. Remember to pick up Carry On Token fron fuel depot. MWD offline - remember.

15. Carry On Refit: Take Atron from Frigate bay, and Carry On Token. Blitz the mission - I had no issues at all (only one neut attempt) - and even if, Atron's are cheap :)

16. Studio 1 Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control That's the hard one - we fit for max tank. I know, I know - dimishing returns, but at this point we have to. In first pocket enemies are split into 2 groups. Warp in at 100km, take out Cruisers first (Neut + Damp), and BSs will be easy. Warp out and repeat for second group. First group in second pocket - drop sentries, take Cruisers, Elite BS and the rest. Safe to tank. Before engaging Studio 1 - change refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener x2+ Kinetic Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control Create bookmarks as Wiki suggest - I made 3, but really used only 2. When enemies spawn, take Frigates out, and warp to bookmark. You need to take one BS when they approach, and you can safely tank remaining 5.

17. Showtime Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Explosive Shield Hardener x2, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control Another max tank, this time for Pator 6 BSes. Warp in at 100, take out Cruisers/Frigates, and you should be able to take out one BS before they close. After that you can tank it all. Leave one BS on grid and warp out to refit for rest of mission. Change refit to: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener x2+ Kinetic Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Damage Control Rest of this mission is easy - take out normal BS first, Rosulf Fririk last.

18. Where's the Line? Choose which ending you want - I did Gallente one.

19. Safe Return You need to deliver the kid - take Atron, and pick him up from Item hangar - you can leave Prax here, as you have to go back for final reward anyway.


And that's it - easy, isn't it?


Best,

Chris

Wildfire

Wildfire Minmatar Epic Arc

Preparations: Some additional modules needed - analyzers, EM hardener, Olfei medallion and one Capacitor Flux Coil - not a big deal, most of the items are available in Arc area (at huge markups, so better bring them in).

To Start this Arc you need Minmatar at 5.0 or Brutor Tribe at 5.0.

Keep in mind - you will lose around 0.03 standings with Ammar and Ammatar factions. Not a huge hit, but be aware of it.


Mission Breakdown

Mission by mission - I wrote a bit more than last time, hopefully useful things. Again - it's not a walkthough, it's more of my journal which can supplement Wiki.


1. A Demonstration If you have Olfei Medallion, mission is done - so bring one :)

2. The Cost of Preservation Refit: - Micro Jump Drive, + Micro Warp Drive Warp in, shoot Ailon Boufin until reinforcement spawn, take them out, shoot Ailon again - contrary to Wiki, there are 2 waves of reinforcements. Have your MWD offlined, otherwise you will cap out quickly. Frigs and Cruisers hate your drones - watch out for them.

3. Written By The Victors Refit: - Missile guidance computer, + Explosive Shield Hardener MJD away, MJD in to mission objective. Remeber to loot conents - needed for next mission. Tank everything - if needed take out scramming frigate.

4. Glowing Embers Travel only - go with Prax, next mission requires some combat. Complete this mission remotely, and remotely accept next one.

5. From Way Above Full tank - mission does not require moving at all. Shoot waves as they come along. Remeber to take Nova missiles. If you will find yourself surrounded by enemies - warp out, and warp in at 100km - I did it more or less when final wave spawned. If needed, you can then warp to asteroid colony - but you should not have too many ships left.

6. Friends In High Places Travel only - go with Prax, remotely Accept/Complete

7. My Little Eye Travel only.

8. Dead End Intercept Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Explosive Shield Hardener x2 Only one ship - shoot it :)

9. Surfacing Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener Take the mission item from Tili's Brothel, and shoot waves as they appear - biggest ships last, as they are triggers. Remember to switch to Scourge.

10. Who Art in Heaven Refit: Take Atron Blitz - warp in at 100km, fly away from Archeology Outpost to get to 150km then warp to outpost, then warp out.

11. Playing All Their Cards Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, + Explosive Shield Hardener, + Data Analyzer, - Ballistic Control System + Damage Control Warp in, approach can (go as close as you can, don't stop at 5km) and hack away. I managed to do it at 3rd or 4th time - still safe for tanking. I would suggest taking out scrams when they start scramming you - I got only 1 Frigate (Thug - Rogues [3] also scram). After Hacking I warped away. Total DPS of pocket might be too much for the tank I fitted - so hack quickly, or warp away and slowly clear the pocket. This one was not tested as much as I would like it :/

12. History In The Making Travel

13. Church Of The Obsidian Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Relic Analyzer, - Ballistic Control System + Damage Control Tough one. In first pocket go for the gate (you need to kill two webbing and one scramming frigate - 0.03 Ammar standings lost), in second pocket there are no scrams -that's good. Pocket DPS is 1532, my boost was 1415 EHP (1770 with overheated Hardeners) - in case of problems warp out. When you warp into pocket, start aligning to anything away from can - to lure enemies out, then warp off and back. I was able to tank it, so check your boosts in Pyfa against Ammar damage profile. Apocs have short range (13km), so use them as guideline when to warp out. Killing should be avoided, as you'll lose Ammar standings (wiki says Ammatar - wrong).

14. Heresiology Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Micro Jump Drive, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Relic Analyzer, - Ballistic Control System + Damage Control Similar to previous one, but has way less DPS. Fit the same as before (comfortably this time), but still takes time to run - 4 cans to hack for me. You need to kill web and scram (this time Ammatar standings lost). Semi-deadspace - warp in at 100 in Atron, move out until you get to 200km, make bookmark, swap to Prax, and then you can warp to bookmark and back to cans.

15. Wildfire Refit: Take Atron Take mission item, place in box, warp out.

16. Stillwater Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, + Explosive Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Capacitor Flux Coil Additional Flux coil against neuts. Take out Elite Frigates and neuting sentry first, then proceed as usual - drop sentries, shoot Nova missiles, MJD away if enemies are too close.

17. With Great Power Branch - I choose Revelation - standings, mmm.

18. Revelation Travel only.


Another Arc done. This was comparable to Gallente - probably more DPS in one mission, and a lot more travelling and hacking - but Prax did it fine. I lost one drone though :(


Best,

Chris

Right to Rule

Right to Rule Amarr Epic Arc

Preparations: After previous two arcs, this one doesn't need anyrthing special. This one is rather long, and has a lot of combat missions - pack Mjolnirs, as much as you can. It doesn't help that Amarr is kinda far now, and markets are scarce - sometimes wyou will need to make few jumps for another batch of missiles.

To Start this Arc you need Amarr at 5.0 or Ministry of Internal Order at 5.0.

Na standings hit to other factions, fortunately.


Mission Breakdown

Mission by mission - this time I overestimated what I'll meet, so in few cases I've rune 'overtanked' setup - still safe, but more time consuming. Next time I'll check 'minimum' tank required.


1. Aiding an Investigator Travel

2. Late Reports Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener Remember this refit - most missions are against Sansha, so will be used a lot. I had a bit over 1200 EHP/s vs. Sansha damage profile. Also load Mjolnir missiles. Overall easy mission, we can tank everything.

3. The Outclassed Outpost Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener Mission very similiar to previous one - same advice applies

4. Raging Sansha Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control Well, you can guess how this mission looks like :) Damage Control goes in - quite a bit more of ships than previously. Mind the triggers - Centum Beast/Juggernaut and Sansha Commander last. Watch out for drones - they kinda hate them.

5. Cowardly Commander Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Capacitor Flux Coil This one is significantly tougher. First 3 pockets are the same as previously, but have neuts (according to Wiki - I did not get neuted at all) - in last pocket keep an eye on them, as they are also triggers, so leave last one alive, and take out the rest. With additional Capacitor Flux Coil we have 35GJ/s spare, so should be enough - no prop mod though.

6. Aralin Jick Travel only - go with Prax, remotely Accept/Complete

7. Background Check Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener Follow Wiki advice - mind the triggers. Wiki is a little wrong about spawning in that mission - you will get more ships spawned than you plan to, but don't worry, Prax is tanky :)

8. Longing Leman Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Micro Jump Drive, - Ballistic Coontrol System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Data Analyzer, + Damage Control Fit Data analyzer, jump into mission, hack, warp off. Should be done before enemies approach. If they do - don't worry, hack until it's done :)

9. Languishing Lord Refit: Take Atron Travel, kinda. Go to mission location, apporach target, do not engage, wait for completion of mission.

10. Razing the Outpost Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + Kinetic Shield Hardener Mercenaries this time - remember to switch hardeners, and take Scourge missiles. Easy if you watch triggers. I 'blitzed' 3rd pocket - after arriving I dropped Wardens and started shooting Outpost - when it went down I warped off.

11. Ascending Nobles Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control Back to standard refit with DC. Elite BS in first wave hit hard, but we have good tank and they need to close to us - so remove some of them before they get close, or MJD away. Wardens make your life easier, use them. Second wave neuts quite a lot - so try to stay at long range - neuts start when they are around 30km from you. I managed to kill 6 of them before first neuts reached me, so it's not an issue.

12. Hunting the Hunter Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control We fit for tank to speed up the mission. You have to clear warp-in, in first pocket you only need to destroy Battletower (do not attack anything else) to unlock the gate, in second pocket destroy Rahsa's Battleship and grab him from wreck.

13. Fate of a Madman I've chosen 'Interrogation' - for Amarr standings.

14. Catching the Scent Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Damage Control Easy peasy. Follow wiki advice, and leave one Cruiser and one BS from initial group to control spawns. Bring a lot of Mjolnirs :)

15. Falling into Place Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener Deliver Gizmo and kill some ships. Easy enough that we can take BCS to run it faster.

16. Making an Arrest Travel, but I went with Prax - next mission is Palas, it was closer. Can be done in Atron - but park Prax close to Palas to reduce travel, and go with Atron/Shuttle back to Nishah to turn the mission.

17. An Unfortunate End Travel Only

18. Panic Response Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener, + Capacitor Flux Coil Extra Flux coil - expected neuts. Mission is finished when Centus Tyrant is destroyed, which is the easiest way.

19. The Right to Rule Refit: - Missile Gudance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + EM Shield Hardener Not hard, but extremely long. Warpin and first two pockets are nothing special, in third engage BS, when reinforcements spawn get rid of them, engage BS again. In fourth pocket MJD away, to draw Harkan towards you (he's faster than others) - I repeated this 2 times, then killed him without caring for reinforcements - he went down before they could get me. Bring load of Mjolnirs, you'll need them.


Ufff, that was something. Compared to Gallente/Minmatar this one was way way longer for my Prax - it should go fairly well in reasonable BS, which should have more DPS than I did. Well, for the next time I'll try something else maybe.


Best,

Chris

Penumbra

Penumbra Caldari Epic Arc

Preparations: This the fastest arc to run - it has mostly travel/courier missions, and only 3 combat missions (in 2 of them you need to kill only 1 ship). As a bonus, it has 3 missions with travel to LowSec, carrying mission items - if you lose them, the arc is over, sadly. Take care with these - I did it in the shuttle around DT, but Sunesis might be actually better.

To Start this Arc you need Cadari at 5.0 or Expert Distribution at 5.0.

Na standings hit to other factions if you're careful - few missions have Gallente ships.


Mission Breakdown

Mission by mission - travel mostly, so not much refitting.


1. The Intermediary Travel to Poinen. Take Prax, one jump is not much.

2. Trust And Discretion Courier mission - easy, then complete and request next one remotely.

3. Their loss, our profit. Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + Kinetic Shield Hardener Rather easy mission against Serpentis. I started by going 30km away from target, then MJDing in. Then destroy Research Facility (it has a lot of HP - took me 3 reloads of missiles), pick mission item (in can about 30km from you), warp out. If needed/bored - destroy some ships :)

4. The Paths That Are Hidden Refit: Shuttle Branching paths. I've chosen "An Honorable Betrayal", for Hyasyoda path - but any path gives the same standings, so it's up to you. For Hyasyoda take S.I. thingy.

5. Proof of Intent If you have S.I. Fromula Sheet, Accept Mission and complete right away.

6. Return to Isha Travel back to Poinen - lot of flying here.

7. Playing it Safer Travel to LowSec. That's quite important to do it proper - I went in shuttle, and got smartbombed on my way back. If you lose the mission item - you will not be able to complete the mission, so it's actually better to do that mission in sub-2 align ship with the most tank you can have - Sunesis being a good option

8. Almost Unmasked Refit: Take Praxis this time[/size] Another travel, but this time we will need Prax, so take it before going to Wuos

9. Some Light Theatrics Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, -Micro Jump Drive, + Data Analyzer, + Micro Warp Drive Take Data Analyzer - there's a can to hack. After hacking you have 30 seconds to get 10km out - MWD away and you'll be fine :) Do not warp off, mission will not complete in that case.

10. Untouchable Travel to Poinen - bring Prax with you.

11. A General's Best Friend Refit: Atron Blitz it! To avoid Gallente hit, take Atron and go as fast as you can to acceleration gate. Second pocket is safe, approach Caldari Navy Outpost to start convo and mission is done.

12. Meet Sinas Another travel mission - go to Sinas, talk to him, mission's over.

13. Right Tool for the Job Refit: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Micro Jump Drive, - Ballistic Control System, + Data Analyzer, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Micro Warp Drive, + Damage Control That's a weird one. I wanted to avoid Gallente standings hit, so I refit for tank (to sustain everything instead of shooting it) and MWD. Blitz strategy from Wiki - warp in and MWD towards shipyard frigates/can, while ignoring the rest. When you will be at the can, OFFLINE MWD, otherwise your tank will eat your cap. Hack and loot the can, warp off.

14. The Breakout Refit: Shuttle This mission requires probing and hacking and combat... or quick trip to Perimeter, where for 20M you can buy mission item to hand it in. I did it this way - and shuttle is required for next 3 missions, so park your Prax (I picked Tsuruma)

15. Whisper of a Conspiracy Travel to 'somewhere' - in my case LowSec 4 jumps deep. I took shuttle and paid attention while going in - no camps, low number of players, so I decided to run for it. Remember - if you lose mission item on way back to Sinas, you'll fail Epic Arc.

16. Practical Solutions Travel again, this time Hisec. Shuttle is perfectly fine.

17. Forewarning Again, LowSec travel. You need to bring mission item - as always, don't lose it :) I did this mission just before DT - less players, less risk. Take tankier ship or scout if in doubt.

18. The Knowledge to Act Branch for Hyasyoda line - of course we pick Slipping Away, to get Hyasyoda BPC

19. Slipping Away Travel back to Wuos - bring Prax, needed for last mission

20. Across the Line Reft: - Missile Guidance Computer, - Multispectrum Shield Hardener, - Ballistic Control System, + Thermal Shield Hardener, + Kinetic Shield Hardener, + Damage Control Quite hard mission. What I did: warp to 100km, and move away (so you'll be 150km from cargo) then warp to cargo and engage Caretaker - enemies will spawn. Immediately MJD away - Caretaker is faster than other, so shoot him when he apporaches. When frigs will be close, MJD away again (at that point Caretaker was at 75% hull) - and repeat, until Caretaker is destroyed. Afterward warp to cargo, pick the Family and warp off.


That finishes all my Epic adventures - hope you did not get too bored :D


Best,

Chris
