Edited by: Colonel Cornbread on 03/05/2009 21:13:08 So... I was a guest on an operation over in Providence. I was tagging along with Garmon / Genos Occidere, to test our their corporation (and to see if I could keep up with them despite my deafness / hearing impairment). Died once, came back in a new Rifter, blah blah blah... to get to the point...
I'm not sure what was said over vent but our fleet were going somewhere. We were previously camping a gate and as I warped out (one of the last) I noticed a large 15-25 man fleet coming through the gate and I was typing 'GTFO HUGE ENEMY FLEET HEADING TO US' and once we warped to the other gate - they were heading to the gate (so either they were already on the way to the gate or I just saved their ships)... for some reason, I landed in a warp disruption field 72 km away from the gate. Funny, I warped to the gate at 0. Anyways, burning it and trying to get to the gate before they could arrive.... hah, I knew I was a dead man and was going to be podded for the second time today. An Onyx and Manticore caught up with me and promptly had me webbed and scrammed. I was about to give up until I realized that they were both in my optimal range... I was laughing like a madman (thank god my roommate wasn't in the room).
I let loose my high rack, web, scram, armor rep and turned off AB to save cap in order to use it on the armor rep. By the time I popped the Manticore, I was at 50% armor with the entire fleet next to me (but 6 people were on the lossmail)... If the others didn't come, there is a slight chance I could've gotten the Onyx since he was using heavy missiles.
It was probably the closest I've gotten to having an adrenaline rush due to EVE. It was so fun and exciting to take down a 46 mil ship compared to them taking down a 1 mil ship.
EDIT: Post your stories!

fyi bubbles will drag you out of warp when set up on the opposite side of the gate directionally to the celestial object from where you want to catch people, they are called drag bubbles.
I learned something new.

Originally by: Misanth There's a couple of other things to learn from your post, but you'll get there in time. Good start.
Please do tell me what other things I should've learned from my mistakes.

Originally by: Cyrdax you couldn't kill an afk onyx in a rifter
nothing personal, i'm about one skill tick away from having all related skills maxxed and i couldn't do it either
Anything's possible in EVE, however.
Some people thought BOB was an impenetrable fortress and would never fall...

Originally by: Cyrdax hurf blurf **** talking blah blah blah
you won't do enough damage in a rifter, not even with 3x 200 autos and 3x gyros shooting true sansha ammo overheated, to break the passive recharge on an onyx
Seriously? It's only a T2 cruiser though... unless I've underestimated it greatly.
