Archive:Newbie Doctrine

The Newbie Doctrine is a repertoire of ships that empowers new pilots to make valuable contributions to a PvP fleet without any skill training. Fleet Commanders can use the Newbie Doctrine as an add-on to their doctrines, encouraging new pilots to participate in PvP fleet operations. As pilots improve their skills (and can afford to lose better ships), they are encouraged to reference the more advanced fittings within EVE University's Fleet-Up group.

Click "Notes" within each fitting to learn about the purpose of each module. Click "Skills" and "Fleet-Up" to learn how to upgrade modules as your in-game skills improve.

The Newbie Doctrine program gives free, fully-fitted ships to new members of EVE University. A repository of Newbie Doctrine ships is conveniently located near the Low-Sec Campus, in the system where many EVE University fleets are formed. Ships are posted as free corporate contracts. Contracts can be found by navigating in the Neocom: E in top-left corner of screen > Business > Contracts > Start Page > Auction and Item Exchange. If you have not yet subscribed to EVE Online and thus cannot accept contracts, ask another member of EVE University to accept the contract and trade the ship to you in a station.

The best way to learn PvP is by trying it! Let's die gloriously together!

“

If your screen goes white and you see yourself floating in space, do not be troubled. You are in station, and you're already dead! -- Winter Alabel

You are encouraged to discuss improvements to the Newbie Doctrine on the E-UNI forum thread. Fittings should be accessible to pilots with starting skills. Please do not edit the fittings on this page without permission from Julian Celador.

The Newbie Doctrine is made possible by the generosity of Unistas. Learn how you can help new players experience PvP! The records of the Newbie Doctrine program are public and can be viewed here.

Pre-Fleet Checklist

Main article: The Rookie's Guide To Fleet Ops

1. Join a Fleet
   Check the in-game calendar to see when upcoming fleets are scheduled. You can join a fleet by navigating in the Neocom: E in top-left corner of screen > Social > Fleet. You can also attend a Fleets 101 course, typically held at least once a month.
   
   
2. Join the Fleet's Mumble Channel
   Fleet Commanders use Mumble to communicate important information. You are encouraged to ask questions in Mumble before and during a fleet operation.
   
   
3. Prepare to be Podded
   If you have implants, either make sure you can afford to lose them or get into a jump clone. While you should always be prepared to be podded, this should rarely occur in high-sec or low-sec battles. Be sure you are familiar with the "Pod Saver" tab on your overview.
   
   
4. Choose Your Role
   The primary roles in a fleet are:
   1. Tackle - New pilots can fly tackling ships without any skill training!
   2. Electronic Warfare (EWAR)
   3. Damage Dealer (DD)
   4. Logistics (logi)
      
      
5. Fly what you can afford to lose.
   This is often cited as the first rule of EVE Online. All the ships in the Newbie Doctrine are designed with this principle in mind.
   
   
6. Load Your Ship
   Check that all the modules on your ship are fitted and powered on. Check that your ship is loaded with ammunition, drones, and Nanite Repair Paste as needed.
   
   
7. Insure Your Ship
   Ships should (almost) always be insured before fleet operations. Platinum, the highest level of insurance, is generally the correct choice. Members of EVE University can obtain additional reimbursement for lost ships through the the Ship Replacement Program (SRP).
   
   
8. Rename Your Ship
   The default ship name is "<Player's Name> <Ship Name>"; this will make it much easier for enemies to identify and locate you via D-Scan. Rename your ship to something that cannot be associated with your name or EVE University.
   
   

Tackle

Main article: Tackling Guide

Tacklers use Warp Disruptors, Warp Scramblers, and Stasis Webifiers to ensnare a target enemy, preventing them from warping away during a fight. Tacklers play a crucial role in any fleet, enabling Damage Dealers to destroy trapped enemies. Fleet Commanders can never have too many tacklers and are always excited to help new players swarm targets. The biggest difference between the Scout/Fast Tackle and the Tackle/Small Gang fits is one of range. The Scout/Fast Tackle fits use Warp Disruptors ("point") and Nanofiber Structures to operate at distances of 15 - 20 km from the enemy. The Tackle/Small Gang fits are designed to operate in close, under 2 km typically, and use the shorter range Warp Scramblers ("scram"). Ask the FC which you should bring if you are unsure.

A Derptron operator will only have to push three buttons to be effective: the "Go Fast" button, the "Catch the Other Guy" button, and then the "Shoot" button. -- FearlessLittleToaster

”

Scout / Fast Tackle

These fittings utilize the speed of an Attack Frigate and the long range of a warp disruptor, commonly referred to as a "point", to tackle enemy ships and maintain range (a "kiting" style of fighting). New players in EVE University often use fittings similar to these while learning how to be a Scout.

Tackle/Small Gang

These fittings utilize the speed of an Attack Frigate combined with a MicroWarpDrive (MWD) to close with the enemy very rapidly (a "brawling" style of fighting). The Tackle then uses its Warp Scrambler and (if equipped) Stasis Webifier to prevent the enemy from escaping. If the enemy ship is a Cruiser or larger ship, the capsuleer should not approach straight on, but should instead spiral in to maintain high transversal and mitigate potentially lethal one-shot damage from the larger ships weapons.
