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.

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!

You are encouraged to discuss improvements to the Newbie Doctrine on the talk page. 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 donors. Become a donor and 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. Tackler - 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. 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. The frigates in the Low-Sec Campus Reshipping Doctrine are a good starting point within Fleet-Up.
   
   
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. Tackling frigates can also be used by Scouts.

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.

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.
