Hi there.
My attempt at a solo pvp video. It's mostly against blobs and small gangs, and I'm almost exclusively flying crappy-ass T1 frigs, cause that's just how i roll. It's recorded in RvB, so it's a good mix of decent and totally useless opponents.
Ships used: Rifter, Incursus, Kestrel, BATTLE GRIFFIN, Moa, Ishkur
Lenght: 17:43
Resolution: 1440:1080
Size: 1 GB
Kill Will: Volume 1
I failed at making it into a .MKV file, so downloading may take a while. Sorry.
This is my first real pvp video, so please let me know what you think. I hope you enjoy it ;)
EDIT: The "Crow" at 07:30 is really a raptor, didn't realize till I was done encoding, dont wanna bother doing it over.

Thanks guys
Let me know which kind of fights you like the most and I'll try to have more of such fights in my next one
I tend to end up having too much fraps to chose from, and I don't wanna spend all day editing video :)

What encoding software package are you using Will? I've had the most luck with StaxRip 1.1.6.0 myself plus associated codecs (which I think StaxRip gives you an option to download and update somewhere).
I have no clue mate! I just use the inbuilt encoder in Vegas Pro 9 :P

Knew I remembered you :) -- That was one of the most epically executed WT ganks of all time, just sayin.
Anyhow- glad to see you're PVPing- DLing the vid now, sounds like it should be fun :)
Hahah, I remember that! I was totally cluesless at the time, was even keeping an eye on local..Look at my awesome PASSIVE DRAKE!
Originally by: Taudia
Awesome frigate work there. Good to see that there are some skilled pilots in RvB - I hardly though anything but duels went on in there. Much appreciate the Moa fight btw - illustrates nicely how much size matters.
Oh there is plenty of non-arranged stuff, but we're not alot of "solo" guys. This is also part of the reason I made this video, cause so far all the RvB videos I saw has been about fleet fights and duels, so I jsut wanna show you people what it's also a part.
Imo RvB is actually a nice place for solo, as ECM isn't alowed and people generally don't fly fancy stuff alot. Only problem is, that after a while you'll get infamous for your abilities and end up being blobbed all the time :(

Hey Will,
Sadly you left just as I joined...... I wanted to do a lot more small gang/solo stuff.... shame we missed eachother...
Really enjoyed your video.... just goes to show what you can learn in a short amount of time.
I'm back at Agony now, but for those that are looking to get their feet wet in PvP, you should look no further than RvB.
Will..... keep the videos coming.........they are great!
Barrak
Thank you Barrak
RvB is indeed a great place to learn PvP, especially if you don't have alot of SP. I do hope I've encouraged more people to try out some solo stuff aswell, EVE could use some more of us really.
I'm back in blue, btw. :)

Will, first off. I <3 j00. Now then. Nice job killing them  . However there are some fail Thrasher pilots there nowadays 
Aye. There are indeed quite alot of inexperienced pilots at least. We're pretty good at teaching eacother how to fit ships and such though, but T1/meta fits are just as common as T2 ones, so that does give my ships an edge in many situations.
I like fail thrasher pilots

Originally by: Russel Williams
Yeah, I know. They can have the best fittings yet unless they know how to use them they will fail :P. Don't they know that arty Thrashers are the best? I remember the period of time when a lot of Blue wouldn't even engage my Thrasher . I may get back into RvB sometime in the future, not sure with which character though.
I myself prefer AC thrashers actually, I like it close and personal. I don't own any long range ships in fact! Only problem is that it's hard getting much fights with it, as most people have already seen what I can do with a rifter 
And indeed, piloting skills mean alot more than just good fittings and SP in this game, luckily :)

Yeah, I have an alt for gangbonus in some of the fights if you didn't notice.
And it's in a drake, not a tengu. It would be if I had the skills for it though. And yes, it does have impact on the outcome in some of the engagements.

Well thank you mate, this does serve as sort of advertisement for rvb, so I guess it's working :)
Anyway, lotta people apparently think an alt booster will turn my t1 frigs into battlecruisers or stupid **** like that, even though they have no clue at all what it'll do for you, so I tend to have little patience when people start talking bout it :P
