Wartime Operations in EVE University: Difference between revisions

Line 10:

'''Wars are prevalent throughout New Eden''', and despite operating and maintaining [[neutrality]] in [[Hi-sec|High Security]] space, [[Eve University]], along with it's expanding activities outside of [[Hi-sec|Hi Sec]] space, receives its share of wars. War declarations and war are a valid game mechanic and war is a significant feature of EVE Online. This is something you are encouraged to get used to.

The reasons why the Uni/Ivy become the target of a wardec are normally just due to the fact that we're a large corporation that can often be seen as an easy target. Rarely are wardecs made against the Uni for specific reasons or diplomatic incidences.

Whether you are new or an experienced pilot, the University finds its ''strength in numbers''. All University members, especially new, are highly encouraged to participate in wartime activities as the [[tackling]] or [[EWAR]] roles require only hours of training to fulfill and provide valuable support to the fleet. Even if PvP is not your primary game style you will learn a great deal and have some fun.

You can enjoy doing a lot of your favourite PvE activities in wartime especially when you exercise some basic routine precautions. You can also avoid the effects of wartime given your choice of where you decide to operate. Preparation and knowledge is the key.

Unless stated in the Wartime SOP, regulations not overwritten by the Wartime SOP still apply. For example, you still cannot engage blues even if they are flashing in your overview unless a Fleet Commander directs otherwise.

For example, you still cannot engage blues even if they are flashing in your overview unless a Fleet Commander directs otherwise. Please note that the [[Wartime Standard Operating Procedures|WSOP]] has undergone many changes from being a very restrictive set of rules under different game mechanics and a smaller scope of the Uni to being a locus on information and advice on how to survive while a member of an expanded Uni.

If you are unhappy with wartime in the Uni or the WSOP you should [[Leaving EVE University#Leaving for the war|consider dropping for the duration]] from the Uni during the war. If you have roles you can simply resign those and you'll be able to quit the Uni to an NPC corporation immediately, and if you're looking to join another player corp you'll be able to accept invites to them immediately. You should know that ''any'' player corporation can be war decced so the only "safe" corporations from war are non Factional Warfare NPC Corporations. Please note that depending on circumstances it can take a bit of time to get back into the Uni.
