Template:Work in Progress Annotated Index to PvP

If this is your first visit to this page, please read the Introduction. It is short, and it is useful.

Introduction

This page is an annotated index to the many PvP combat sources that can be found in this Wiki. It is not a tutorial, but it contains links to a wide variety of information, including some very good tutorials.

Note that this page: UNIWiki PvP Category automatically collects the links to all pages that include the "PvP" category tag. This is an alphabetized list with no annotations, but it may include some items that are not included on this page.

Common to All PvP

These include information that applies whether you are doing PvP Solo or in a Fleet.

Calendar and Scheduling

• Calendar Look here to find scheduled classes, fleet departure times and other PvP events.

Killboard (Killmail)

• Killboard All ship kills are automatically listed here. If you kill or are killed, you should go here and explain how it happened. This helps everyone.
• Using the Killboard Detailed instructions on how to add comments to your killboard entries.

At one time, this process was called "killmail."

A killmail is created whenever a ship or structure is destroyed. All participants in the kill are listed with the damage they did, along with the victim's ship, fittings, and cargo. Any modules or cargo that were dropped are specified. Only the person contributing the final blow, and the victim, get the killmail. Since late 2007 killmails are found in the Character Sheet/Combat Log. Killmails from before that date were sent as Eve-mails, which is why this term came into existence. Most Corporations and Alliances post their killmails to a killboard." Evolopedia
