This, my first fight, barely made it, wife looked over and asked "are you alright dear?" as I was huffing and had a death grip on the desk with the biggest smile on my face. Best 1 minute EVER! |

It's pretty normal actually.

Pvp more often and you dull that rush. All the better you get over it.
Now, if it burns when you pee vee pee, that certainly is a bad sign.
If however you suffer an erection lasting over four hours, do what I did. Call every single women you know in a 10 mile radius!

this.
adrenaline does nothing useful for you in EVE - your body doesn't have a use for the energy surge and your mind has to keep track of a lot of different things at the same time, calm decision-making and good situational awareness are extremely important in EVE pvp and adrenaline only gets you hyped up and overly focused in a bad "tunnel vision"-style way.
Maybe you will have overheated all your guns to the max and experienced the "most epic fight evar" before going down in an adrenaline fueled battle - but at the same time you will have forgotten to use your drones, taken unnecessary damage due to not paying enough attention to transversal and completely missed the one opportunity to disengage safely when it became obvious that you didn't stand a chance.
Try to be more bored and you will perform better (losing a lot of ships does wonders for that). |

Hehehe.  Not a fight but years ago during a goon "jihad" I was mining alone in a high sec pocket between 2 low sec pockets I suddenly had a Brutix on my badly tanked Hulk, overloaded what ever I had on the Hulk and came out in 1 piece. Adreline made me feel I could kick over a building.
Indeed that should never leave the game.

Lol I still get the PvP shakes a bit even now. It's just reached the point where I'm getting that huge adrenaline surge but my mind is still very much calm. It'll take a good long while to go away completely(if ever), but after a handful of fights you'll be able to stay focused through the adrenaline.
Edit: Don't care what the haters say. That adrenaline rush is why Eve PvP is so damn sexy. Don't numb yourself to it completely. You want it right on the edge of your consciousness always there but never robbing you of your self control. You can stay mentally calm through it with some practice, but I say don't try to completely lose the rush. You'll react faster with it. |

I think an elevated heart rate is quite normal AT FIRST. You need to learn to calm down and think clearly because your emotions will screw you up. I think the Japanese call it "satori". You approach a life and death battle with business-like emotions.
I look at it as being no different than performing a musical instrument in front of an audience. If your emotions are rampant, you are far more likely to screw up. If you are calm, you can focus and execute much better.
I am not known for PvP in EvE, but I PvP in many other games, currently and in the past. That elevated heart rate is a big part of the reason people PvP and usually called "adrenaline rush". Simultaneously, too much of that and you'll forget all your practice/training and blow it. |

only you can tell what is nomral for you. but real risk in conflict where the outcome is not decided has been known to elevate heart rates. As opposed to ganking miners which never really gets hearts to elevated.. no the outcome has already been decided.

My first solo fight had my hands shaking, heart beating, breathing heavily. It lasted ages because i was in a maelstrom, after about 2 minutes of that adrenaline rush my arms actually felt heavy, i could barely click the mouse anymore. the fight lasted 5 minutes or so, and left me exhausted. Adrenaline is a hell of a drug, and while i am a little embarrassed that a mere computer game could do that to me, it sure was fun. :) |

Subconsciously your mind is failing to distinguish from real world risk of assets and threat to your being from virtual world risks/threat.
You really shouldn't feel any different in EVE than you would in CoD, Starcraft, or losing a piece in chess.

There is one thing you should know about the Adrenaline Rush. Not everyone gets it. That is they get the adrenaline, but not the feeling of euphoria after.
The Rush is a good felling one gets with and after a burst of adrenaline associated with an exciting experience, like PvP combat. Not everyone gets The Rush. Some get no pleasure from adrenaline, and some actually feel bad or sick from it. According to Dr. Drew Pinsky, the difference between these people is genetic. You are born to get The Rush, or you are not. The result is some players will not enjoy PvP and actively seek to avoid it, and no amount of game tweaking will change that, because game tweaking will not change their genes. After all this is a game, people will tend to avoid game activities that make them sick. Instead they do cooperative activities, industry, missions and the like, or just play as solo players.
People who do not get The Rush can also enjoy activities like fishing, a sport that is more popular that any computer game, even WoW. Or puzzle games, or solitaire, or Golf (one of the most popular pastimes on the planet). These players like an activity that occupies the mind, is relaxing, and gives one a gentle feeling of accomplishment as they watch the isk pile up. For them, a certain amount of repetition is not boring, its reassuring and relaxing.

A life and death situation is driving down an Iraqi highway and hitting an IED, blacking out for a moment then gunning the accelerator back to base with blood and sweat running in your eyes while your trying to peer through the smoke coming off the blown radiator, while your machine gunner hangs limp, you not knowing if he's alive or dead. EVE is not a life or death situation.
You are right, of course. I was talking about the Samurai and how they train. They did engage in life and death battles. And their approach was "satori". Even though EvE is NOT life and death, we can still learn from real combatants and how they approach real battles. |

I have played many games with pvp elements in them and none have made me feel as eve does. I still find myself holding my breath between calling ship status,ect and my heart races with every keystroke or mouse click. Long after the fight I find myself thinking about how I could be better and faster for next time. |

Consult your cardiologist prior to engaging in PvP in Eve Online.
Also, I have forwarded this thread to the FDA and requested a black box warning notifying users of the potential risks and side effects of using Eve Online (nausea, vomiting, elevated blood pressure, elevated heart rate, death, and/or exploding). |

Until bitter vet cures it, yes this is normal.
PS. Don't go to null sec, having your losses handed back to you for free from fleet ops, will stop you giving a **** about dying. 80% of the fun of fighting is the risk of meaningful loss. |

If you get a huge adrenaline dump and it makes your thinking fuzzy or gives you the shakes, I HIGHLY recommend joining RvB.
It is fairly cheep (mostly frigs and cruisers), and has loose rules of engagement (Try to ship down if needed, equal fights, no pod killing, ect.).
Once you get no reaction from RvB its time to move up to small gang or solo work. |

That rush was both what initially attracted me to pvp in eve and what made me so bad at it. It has since mostly worn off, which makes me better.
On the other hand, sometimes I still get it when I'm doing something new, even if that thing has very little risk. The first freighter I safariid had this effect on me, even though there was not a damn thing the frieghter could have done. |

Awesome thread  Welcome to EVE! A game that has some magic things done so right, that it fools your body to think that you are there. Savour that feeling, ride the wave, this is excellent value for the subscription money! To be able to log on pretty much whenever for a very modest monthly fee and get this kind of excitement at the comfort of your home is really something special.

For them, a certain amount of repetition is not boring, its reassuring and relaxing.
I replied to this same post in some other thread a while back, but the discussion died then.
The actual term for the bodily reaction caused by pvp is the flight-or-flight response. It's a natural state of your body, launched by a stressful situation and aims to prep you to cope better when threatened- one could argue that without it, we wouldn't be here now, sable tigers would have eaten our ancestors :D
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight-or-flight_response
Anyway, while the response has immediate adverse effects that can be experienced as feelings of sickness, it is not connected with an inherent negative emotional experience. Much like after an extreme workout, your whole body hurts like hell, but you still feel good in your head, why? Because of conditioning. You know from your previous experience, that this terrible state is good for you. Your body starts to connect the pain with positive emotions.
I believe the same conditioning works with flight-or-flight response. Obviously previous experiences and especially those gathered during childhood have a huge impact on how you take it. In EVE, if your fight-or-flight is connected with losses, you subconsciously connect the response with negative emotions... but if you win, you will start associating the rush of adrenaline and hundreds of other hormones with the sweetness of victory. Turning EVE into a promoter of eustress,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eustress
I'm not denying that there wouldn't be any individual, genetic differences, and science certainly doesn't know what all the other hormones do to each person, but I do think that it is possible to condition yourself to enjoy the fight-or-flight response.

It is serious when you fell presure on the lower part of your back.

200 kills later, I still get an adrenaline rush sometimes. Mostly when I'm going solo engaging a ship that I know has the capacity to kill me. When I'm killing a guy running missions in a drake or some other sloppy war target, I'm quite calm.
I jumped a guy in a wormhole the other day and lost my Pilgrim to his PVE Tengu. We both had a serious case of the shakes afterward; it was a close fight and came down to the fact that the sleeper BS on grid wouldn't switch targets off me.

After a while you stop getting that rush, shame really

For me when I just get up off my chair and walk across the room it makes my heart beat like a scared jackrabbit. it's ok though, it happens all the time. |

That really gets the adrenaline going. Nothing better than coming out of a fight on fire :) I don't get this. We all know that we respawn at station if we die. Would be better if character actually dies instead of WoW like respawn.
True, need some harsher consequences for dying. How about an electric shock through your mouse if you get podded? Like lab rats, we might learn to jump quicker.  |
