Hands Off, My Loots!

I was sitting in Dodixie, Moon 20 Station, spinning my ship…when all of a sudden a thought hit me.  “Go find a noob to kill,” my mind said to myself…I agreed, so it was time to prepare.

Preparation was simple, load up the Orca alt with a Wolf, Hound, Cheetah, Rifter, Shuttle, Reaper, and a Hurricane; then pilot him over to Vittenyn while Cyberin brings along the Scorpion.  Of course, that’s a little out of order, because I actually went there in my Gank Catalyst first, killed a Retriever, and then when he came back in a Myrmidon, I decided to do all of the above in order to have a very high chance of getting to kill him.  So, after killing his Retriever…and Concord killing me…the saga begins…

And as always for the people who like a short version…I ganked a guy in a retriever, then killed his Myrm, then killed another guy later in an Incursus.  Seriously…read the rest of the post…it isn’t THAT long

Well…as always, I said I was going to pay better attention to my skills and stuff like that for making these Character Review posts…but October was rather hectic…and then at the end of the month someone tried to break into my house so I’ve been busy getting an alarm system…calming the wife down, etc…so it’s a little late to boot!

First off, on Cyberin…I still haven’t started working on my learning skills yet….still 40 days to go to get all the basics to level 5 and advanced to level 4…it’ll happen one of these days, I’ve just had other stuff that’s more important to me for the short term.

I worked on getting some drone skills up because I’ve decided I like them again.  Can use T2 Lights and Mediums, along with all the ECM, Logistics, and other drones like that.  I also worked on my Remote Repair skills and now have 2 fully fitting Remote Rep cruisers sitting in station for when they are needed…one for shield (Osprey) and one for armor (Exequror).

Somewhere in there I also decided to get my scanning skills up to level 3 all around, with a plan of getting them to 4 in the near future.  Other than that, I started training a few support skills that I’ve been neglecting…and then as I normally do, I try to buy all the skill book that’s I have the prereqs for (except those rather expensive ones) which is why I have so many level 1 skills…I just can’t help myself.  I think I also threw in some missioning skills (diplomacy, etc) somewhere in October…trying to get my standings up a little for selling/refining purposes.

Ship wise…I cross trained into a few other ships…I can fly all the T1 Frigates, all cruisers except Amarr, and Caldari Battleships now…along with Minmatar, Caldari, and Gallente Battlecruisers…although, weapon wise I have to use most of the high meta stuff…still gotta work on the fitting skills for them sometime.

The Nameless Alt got into an Orca last week and I’ve been enjoying that a lot…already used it in one Corp salvaging op as a central base of operations…and it makes for an excellent time while I’m solo salvaging.  My plan now is to do a few more support skills to get a decent fit on the orca, and then I’ll be mixing my training time between skills for Logistics Ships, and Command Ships…since I want this guy to be purely a support character for me and other corp ops.

Also finished Cloaking IV so I can put that lovely Covert Ops cloak on the Blockade Runner!

Two days ago, a corp mate told us a story of how a noob in a velator got 3 or 4 people in a certain system to suicide themselves on him.  We liked this so much that we spoke to the noob…and found out he was not really a noob…just on an alt to mess with people…we liked it, we liked his style…and…we decided we’d work together to get more tears out of at least of of these individuals…so read on

Before I start posting all the Chat logs, I’ll go ahead and give the tl;dr version first because it doesn’t really spoil much for those that want to read the entire thing…just gives a bit more anticipation!  There is a guy named TheWarHound, he decided to Concordokken himself of this alt noob the day before in his Myrmidon…then said “I needed a new ship anyway”.  Because of that statement…we made it our aim to “help” him as much as possible.  Through some excellent social engineering…we managed (we…as in me, 2 corp mates, and the noob alt guy) to get this douchebag to steal from my loot can, and then killed him.

The entire process involved his loot from the day before (when concord killed him), my badger, the corpies, and the alt noob, who I might add…has excellent diplomacy skills.  I took the loot in my badger, 15km outside docking range of a station, then had my corpy kill me after I jettisoned the loot (thought we’d try and see if we could put the loot in the wreck…we couldn’t…so we blew the wreck).  Then one corpy in a Recon cloaked next to the can, while the other 2 of us went to a safe near the station and aligned to him…while the noob alt guy started a convo.

The convo went something like…”hey, this asshole Cyberin just blew up my hauler with your loot in it because I stole from his mining can out in a belt…you can come get it if you want”.  About 10 minutes of diplomacy later the guy actually decided to come get it…and we toasted him…then much Tears fell from the Local Sky.  Chat Logs below (edited to remove all the local chatter that had nothing to do with this event…including the statements by MR. TheWarHound saying that he is an Indian and the White Man pissed him off 200 years ago by invading his homeland…blah blah blah).

As always…with my comments to make sense of things

A lot of people recently let me know that they enjoyed reading about two idiots I had the pleasure of encountering.   Some people thought they were funny, some people thought they were stupid (I thought both…or maybe just naive).  Either way, one of them (Antiquity1) thought I was the stupid one…and I was met with this evemail upon logging into the game one day.

Hey, just wondering if you wanted a PvP match in Assiettes? Message back with a time please.

Needless to say, this sounded like an excellent plan to me, so after a few more evemails…we decided to meet!

What type of match? Ship Type?

2009.10.26 17:43 – From Antiquity1
Remember a few days ago you were in your Wolf? How about that

2009.10.27 03:18 – To Antiquity1
Depends on what you plan on being in…
