Hands Off, My Loots!

I mentioned in my last post that I had put in an application with the Tuskers, well…after a bit of running around lowsec solo, destroying my sec status, other people…and getting destroyed myself a few times…they decided I would be a good fit for the corp…and so now I am officially a Tusker!

I’ve already been on a few Corp Roams, which have so far been a blast!  I actually got the killing blow on my first kill of my first roam with them…which isn’t that big of a deal really, but I thought it was neat.  I also got to join in on the Ransoming of a Megathron pilot who was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  It took a little while, but he eventually paid us 80 Mil to keep his ship, 16 Mil for each of us split 5 ways…so that was pretty decent for my first ever ransom payment.

It’s truthfully been a pretty busy week or so for me and so much has happened that I can’t remember it all exactly how it went down.  You can checkout my personal killboard (link at the top of the site) for the kills/losses I’ve had since I decided to go pirate.  Though one thing I’ve impressed myself with so far (again…not a huge deal, but I like stats and stuff) is I’ve gone from Rank 93,312 in Battleclinic, to Rank 24,456 in 4 days.  I know it’s no where near good…but…it’s a start.

I’ve been sticking with mainly Rifters, and plan on sticking with them for a while since my skills aren’t that good.  I have a few battlecruisers and battleships sitting in station…but I’ll only fly those when I know I have pretty much no chance of dieing…(like killing macros outside station).  My Rifters have the good aspect of being relatively cheap at about 10 Mil ISK fully fit (I am T2 fitting them mostly), as well as being a very popular PvP frigate for good reason.

In other news…I decided to sell my alt.  I’ve been leaning towards only running one account for a while now…simply to provide more of a challenge to EVE…so with this new change to piracy I figured now would be as good a time as any.  Got a pretty good addition to my Wallet by selling him, so I’ll be able to keep myself in my cheap frigates (and a few fun toys if I want) for quite some time.  I figure next month I might worry about starting to work on actually making ISK…but for the time being…I just want to learn my pirating skills better.

Been an excellent change so far…stay tuned for more updates!

Oh, and I forgot to mention…it’s going to be fun flying with so many fellow bloggers!…there are at least 6 of us in the Tuskers…including Wensley, Ka Jolo, Kirith Darkblade (he just got accepted today!), Noir Avlaa, Bourreau…should be fun.  (if I forgot any fellow Tusker Bloggers…please comment so I can add you to my Tusker Blogroll when I put it up)
