So ive spent my whole time in EVE running lvl 4 missions in High Sec with my CNR But I'm utterly bored of it and want to make a move to 0.0
I was thinking of training towards either a Huginn or a Rook and playing an E-war role in groups I'm not sure which would be more useful in gangs or fleets.. The TP'er / Webber or the Jammer?
On a side thought.. Maybe since I can fly Caldari BS anyway.. I could use a Scorpion for Fleet battles and a Huginn for Gang?
So.. I'm obviously very PVP noob and I'm not really sure what a good decision here might be..
Thoughts appreciated :)

Rook can be a very good Solo ship now, despite what they say about Caldari. But the Hungin Rapier allow solo pvp and much safer too, However i assume this is an alt, if you want a in depth look on both ships, i suggest you contact me in game. and i can help you out alot with your choice.
Just leave a reply if your interested.

huggin surely doesnt shine at EWAR and you will be surely more usefu with a rook, on the other side ECM ship are some of the most hated ships so expect the enemy fle to TRY to kill you as soon as possible

Rook is a very nice ship these days. I was very sceptical of CCP's ability to make the Rook useful in a galaxy that has the Falcon, and to make SDAs not compulsory, but they've managed both fairly well.

I would say Rook, Falcon or Rapier. Webs are less than spectacular right now (in other words, they suck the funky bananna). If you are going to use a ship that relies on webs, it might as well be one that can warp cloaked - the Rapier. I have a lot of fun in small gang fights with my Rapiers.
The Falcon and Rook are both viable choices for PvP, the Rook more so for solo attempts (not that there is that much solo PvP out there).
...this doesn't even seem to be a regular case of rats fleeing the sinking ship. Seems more like the rats are on fire, the ship is on fire, and the sea is full of drunk Russians. - Jacob Etienne |

Originally by: Pew Reynolds PVP noob...
Both Huggin or Rook will command respect under the right circumstances. And either will get ZOMGWTFBBQPWND if the pilot doesn't know what he's doing.
PvP is very different from PvE. You need time to unlearn what you know of PvE.
While that's happening you'll probably blow up a lot. Pick a race. Caldari's as good as any other, and start with cheap ships and work your way up. Master frigs first, then cruisers:
- By the time you train to recon five you should be blowing up less, which is good, because the ships are expensive and largely uninsurable.
- By the time you get there these ships will have rebalanced by CCP half a dozen times. So there's no telling today which one is going to be the most viable ship. They may both be great. They may both suck.
- Finally, your play style may change by the time you get into recons. Combat recons fit a certain PvP style. You may find that you're more of a force recon kind of person (most people do).
So, to recap: a major noob mistake is focusing on ships too far out. Each ship class has something different to teach you. If you focus on the frigates you'll be able to answer these questions yourself by the time you get into T2 cruisers.
