Roles in Incursions: Difference between revisions

= Specific roles =

Below are roles you should assign to different people. By delegating these roles everyone will be able to focus on their role without being distracted. These roles and definitions are based on how we run incursions within the EVE University Incursion Community and may not reflect that of public communities.

== Anchor ==

{{note box|This role is only for moving fleet, so usually [[Incursion sites#Assault sites|assaults]] and up and not for [[Incursion sites#Vanguard sites|vanguards]].}}

''Primary function:''

* Carry out your basic role in the fleet.

* Be the point of orbit for the fleet.

* Move into a specific position for sites and/or waves.

''Requirements:''

* Anyone can fill this role, preferably non-logi.

''Gameplay:''

* Some fleets will have a single anchor, usually called ''"AAA"'' while other fleets might have additional anchors, separating them into sniper anchors called ''"AAA"''' and brawler anchors called ''"VVV"'' (based on the popular use of '''Vinicators''' as brawlers).

* Learn where to go so you can move on your own, but always check your current fleet commander's preference.

** It helps to post ''"AAA"''' or ''"VVV"'' in fleet at the start of the site or when you start moving after having stood still for a while. That way you remind people who the anchor is and that you're moving.

** For ''"VVV"'' brawling anchors, it helps to call the number of cycles you burn on coms.

** Adjust your speed so as not to outrun the fleet if you're in a fast ship.

* If you see someone not following you, call them out and get them moving.

** A good example of that is the ''"Slave"'' or ''"Citizen"'' NPC in the fourth wave of the assault-site [[Nation Commander Stronghold]].

* For a more comprehensive guide to leading an incursion fleet, see [[Anatomy of Incursions]].

= Unpaid roles and tipping =

Several roles like '''offgrid boosting''', '''scouting''' and '''picketing''' are excluded from the ingame payout mechanics, so they will not automatically get paid as you're running sites. As such, we recommend that you tip these roles to show your appreciation for the service they provide.
