Fight Club
EVE University Fight Club (UFC) is a solo PvP event primarily run at the Main Community campus in Stacmon. Most of the content on this wiki page is from the Fight Club megathread[1] by Jax Renalard[2] on the Corporation Events forum.
The what
What is Fight Club? We take tech 1 frigates and mash them against each other in 1v1, Unista vs. Unista sanctioned duels for the enrichment and blood-sating of our members. Fight Club is a long-standing traditional event in EVE University. At one time, when EVE Uni was based in Aldrat, the Libold system was dedicated as a frigate free-for-all system for Unistas. Contemporary Uni Fight Club continues that tradition.
The rules
- All fights are 1v1 in racial frigates (Amarr, Caldari, Gallente, Minmitar). You may bring your own dueling fit, but you are quite welcome to use free UFC-fitted frigates on contract in Stacmon.
- While fights may be to the death, you are allowed to concede the fight and end combat.
- No podding!
- If you feel you are losing, try to warp off! If someone succeeds in escaping, the duel is a draw.
- Since people are allowed to escape, bring tackle mods if you want to kill anything!
- Fights will randomly start at 20km or 0km - nobody knows the starting range until you get there!
This is intended as a live-fire exercise as realistic as possible. Learn what it takes to PvP like a low-sec hero!
What can I bring?
- Only T1 racial frigates allowed
- Only T1 modules allowed - Meta variants (0 through 4) are allowed and encouraged, but nothing T2, faction, deadspace, etc.
- Only T1 ammo/charges - This includes cap boosters and drones!
- If you bring drugs, make sure you bring some for the whole class. But seriously, no drugs.
We're keeping things cheap to encourage participation, and evenly matched because the more even-handed the ships, the more your decisions and piloting matter, and the more you learn!
Stacmon Bookmarks
EVE Uni Fight Club uses a collection of bookmarks in Stacmon that are stored in the Stacmon - 08 Fight Club corp bookmarks folder.
- Participants and Spectators warp to Fight Club - Bleacher Seats at the beginning of the event.
- There are four arenas (Cion, Clover, Fish, and Kopobo), each named after a Unista who ran Fight Club in the past.
- At the beginning of each round, the two participants align to the center bookmark of the arena they have been told to fight in (Fight Club - Center). After the host counts down the fight (5, 4, 3, 2, 1...FIGHT), each participant must warp to either Fight Club - Red or Fight Club - Blue.
SRP
Fight Club T1 frigate losses are fully reimbursable through the uni's Ship Replacement Program. You can use this form[3] to apply for SRP. Specifics are listed here.
Want to run FC?
- Get in touch with HSC's manager or events officer and offer to run this week's Fight Club.
- Pick a time that sees a lot of activity, like 19.00 EVE time on a Friday for the EUTZ crowd or 01.00 EVE time on a Saturday for the USTZ crowd.
- Some event hosts also have a bowhead on an OOC alt stocked with T1 frigate fits to give out to participants who want them.
- The Fleet Support Program is a great way to help you get fitted ships on contract. They also have a nice form[4].
