well, since you said you are a noob at pvp, i would first reccomend frigates, cheap, fast, can get out quick if needed, and if you die, its no big deal, i wouldnt reccomend t2 frigs because you WILL die in pvp, before you lose to many t2 frigs, you should start out small


get a friend or three to go w/ you as well, and run a frigate op, they are fun as hell, and you can take down any cruiser w/ a small frig fleet

as you get more experience, i would reccomend going up bigger and bigger first frig then cruiser (skip destroyer), bc, ect as you gain mroe experience, if you keep dying ina cruiser, then your going to keep dying in a battlecruiser (one or two losses in a row isnt bad, but when you like die every time for like 10 times, then its time to downgrade again)


also, practice in ships, because different ships require compeltely different tactics

frigs dont have the dps to take out a big enemy, so you have to work more on tactics w/ frigs, pulsing your MWD, getting out when you konw you dont have a chance in hell

cruisers are different, now you might have the dps to actually take something on solo, but you arent nearly as fast as a frig,

BC's require MUCH different tactics, they are slow, and are like baby battleships, can put out a good amount of DPS, and can take quite a bit, now you need to focus more on regulating your cap, battles go slower (unless your getting jumped) so they take time and diligence, switching out ammo types (since your minmatar) or switching out drones, ect


each different class requires different tactics frigs go fast and have pea shooters, bc's are slow as a tank but can steam roll through anything smaller than itself like it wasnt there



EDIT AGAIN: and im sure i dont need to tell you that bigger doesnt always = better

I disagree with you on one point here.

#1 This guy isnt new to the game just pvp. Carebearing in empire for the last 6 months or so without pvping his wallet is most likely fatter than mine or yours and Im sure he can more to afford to lose a bunch of intys and plenty of t2 fit Cruisers.

What i would do is get a nice inty gang together (there alot better than a shit rifter) and start off trying to catch someone in a belt in low sec. If targets are to scarce try going into 0.0.

After you die a bunch of times and get used to flying the inty's it will be good for when you get into a vaga ir and ishtar (same tactics). Next train with a cruiser There are alot of good choices here the rupty, thorax, vexor, arby and even the caracal (imo the most underated Cruiser). Fit these cruisers with heavy tank and less dps. For example use small nuetrons on a rax and fit a 1600 plate, DC, EANM, 2 mag stabs, mwd scram and web for a much bigger buffer than a cruiser normally has and still some decent dps(use a similar fit for a vexor). That setup will get you used to the heavy BS style brawls and also net you a ton of solo kills.

Now the nano ***gatory. Fit out a nice vaga with a shield buffer tank and make it go real fast and just fly it like a big inty. Same goes with the ishtar. Other hac's have different uses some can be made nano and some tank but to much to explain right now.

BC's fly them like big cruisers but fit them with a good tank and decent dps (no small guns on these) aside from mission running and solo ganking noobs there pretty worthless imo.

With BS's theres different ways to fly em. A remote repping gang, a gank squad, snipers and a few others. Id recomend mastering the inty's and the cruisers before flying anything else.

Cheers-
Thor
