You don't have to "do PvP" in Eve, you just need to understand the basics of it and common counters.
Eg - put some ECM Griffins out and jam him/them. You'll get some amusement in local and you learn a bit. Worst case is you lose a mill or so after insurance.
Go for it. Really, you'll have more fun than him.

Evac ! Evac ! Evac ! Evac ! Evac ! ...oh wait... Dock ! Dock ! Dock !Dock !
OR 1) try to spot him before he catch you 2) with nŠ1 try to mount a gank mixed with bigger and little, fight on dock range if are really noob 3) always with nŠ1 try to trap him on a gate, split your gang on both side and when he's aggro, merge, shoot and profit
Tips check if there's not a alt with him (Remote), of a spy who follow you everywhere dont bring too expensive ship, "shark love blood" and enjoy !

I think it's time to learn about PvP and how you can better protect yourselves.

tl;dr didn't make an insta-undock, didn't have off-grid tacs, wasn't watching known alts
Engage when you choose not when they do. Better to do it early in your Eve career, people get attached to shiny stuff.
Edit - and just don't ever engage on-station until you know what you're doing.

4 vs 1 mach?
1 Blackbird fitted with ECM and ECM drones. 1 Hyena with webber and warp distrupter. 2 Drakes Heavy Assualt fitted missiles and warp scramblers Use Afterburners on the drakes and keep them on at all times, this will lessen the damage taken. With light scout drones for more DPS.
Hyena holds him place, with warp distrupter and webber. Drakes shut down his MWD with scramblers and hit him with heavy assault missiles. Blackbird jams him to hell and back.
All ships can be flown with low skill points and are cheap and easy to replace. Just remeber keep the speed up so his guns can not track you. Or to really make him spew throw on a turret disruptor to top it off.

Originally by: Cosmic Templar Now...speaking of scenarios, I'm open to hearing of specifics of how a small group, lets say 3 or 4 pilots would best be loaded to take on and kill an exp. PVP pilot in a Mach most likely with faction modules and the whole 9.
Leave a full tank+scram/web Drake at a planet, have 2 Minmatar fitted Blackbirds cloaked in system closeby and aligned, ready to warp in at range, same for a 2nd Drake. As the mach approaches the Drake the others uncloak and get their align speed up. As he attacks the drake, you scram&web and start to orbit, BB's warp in at optimal and jam the Mach to crap, 2nd drake warps in at 0 and helps with more tackle and dps. If need be the first drake warps off if low HP.
If he refuses to get into scram/web range simply jam him and warp off, then BB's warp off while still using ECM. again, you don't have to WIN (although it would be nice), you just have to show him you refuse to be picked off solo and have viable strategies and traps in place to catch him when he messes up.
Job done.

Originally by: Demure Guise You can do missions teamed up together anyway, so why people bust a nut to be in a "Newbie" Corp is a mystery to me.
(stuff, in response)
the point here is that a 5 man corp of RL friends who don't know anything about EVE or how it works will (usually) end up going poorly.
If those 5 friends step their game up, read a few guides and talk to people ingame it won't be long and they'll absolutely destroy whatever lonewolf is poking at them. Matter of fact they might soon be thinking about wardeccing corps on the grind themselves. RL friends tend to coordinate much more efficient than any other group.
hence "usually". completely agree that if the RL friends learn a bit about the game, they'll work together very well...
... until one of them steals from the other (hey, this is EVE afterall)

You don't really need to kill him. Just annoy him with jamming. If you jam him and he can't destroy your ships, he will get bored and fight someone else.
Alternatively, kill him. With ten people, you can do 2 jamming frigs (griffins are good) and 8 fully gunned dessies (going with the low sp option because I don't know your possible ships, BCs much more likely to kill him). Of course, this would require you to hunt him, not the other way around. You can also do as mentioned above and set up bait (which is probably easier).
There's also option 3. Don't bother playing for a few weeks. He'll get tired of shelling out isk for nothing.
Note: none of the above assumptions are guarantees.

Love how all the people are giving him advice on how to fight, using this ship and that ship, ECM, EWAR and the lot.
They guy has repeatedly said he has in-experienced players, many fairly new, and clearly they do not have the skills to pull this off.
His choices are simple.
1) Close Corp 2) Higher A Merc Group or a Player that can take this guy out and make it cost him more than he is willing to spend. 3) Stop playing EVE.

I see the same thing over and over again in threads like this one. : "Keel Heem! Keel Heem!"
For what? You gain nothing by ganking him. He gains points on the killboards every time you don't though.
So think about it for a minute. How does he 'win'? Basically, he takes away your ability tio maintain your cash flow. When you start looking at it as a cash flow problem, a different set of solutions starts to appear. None of them involve heroic personal combat.
I formed an industrial corp about 15 months ago. I've been war decced maybe 12 times since then, but I really don't keep track. I've never lost a ship or an ISK during a 'war' although I did lose a Retriever to a suicide ganker before that turned into a war.
Also, remember that PvP is an expensive dead end. Ship losses lead to more accounts for macro miners, or less playing time for the main character. You aren't building anything, You really aren't making much in the way of ISK. If you're a 'macho macho man' though . . . .
One of the many sayings ascribed to Sun Tsu is "The best way to win a war is not to fight." It's still true today.
If you want some advice, Eve Mail me. My first bit of advice, free, is that based on skimming over the posts above, you should ignore them.

If he's flying some pimp ass Mach like the OP is saying, they're probably going to make some nice cash off of his corpse.

Totally out of context. Art of war is about killing people efficiently. The book certainly doesn't depict birds and bees and smokin weed with your buddies.

Do what everyone else is telling you to do, fly cheap ships and tackle, web, scram, ecm jam him. If your really feeling like an ass keep him permajam with ecm for a long time till he self destructs. And keep it up every time he catches you, I doubt the whole idea of fighting you would seem less fun with your corp doing this.
Or move to low sec and play like paranoid carebears like everyone is after you, because they are. Heck you may even die less there because of it.

Nope. Not even close. It's what Castle Wolfenstein is about.

Nope. His ship may not drop anything, although I understand this is rare. You may lose several ships in the attempt and end up losing ISK anyway. It's also a waste of time. He has more ships.

What does the context have to do with it? Also, the Art of War is about war, not killing people. I think you will be hard pressed to find anything about killing people in it.

How nice of you smarty-pants. You should be happy noone was really out to gank your ass until now because with that attitude of yours he would've made you his ***** and have you quit the game in tears.
Smartypants? Word of the day for your pre-school? I fear no PvPer in this game, because there is no reason too. If you feel like ganking me out of the game, feel free.

Originally by: Cosmic Templar I'm currently a CEO of a small high sec space corp with around 10 members, mainly engaged in mission running, trading, industry etc.. We are all casual players with no PVP experience, but we were recently war decced by a one man corp who has a large bankroll judging by the number and types of PVP ships he is using. So far we have lost 3 of our members ships while they were running missions, as this player thrives on killing people who have no PVP experience or interest. What options do we have? I'm afraid that I will have to close the corp, because this player seems bent on harassing our small group of players.
Wow thx, i'll look your corp up right in a moment ! :)

Edited by: Larla Rosethorn on 04/07/2011 20:44:37 Vs Machariel - train scorpion or blackbird with minmatar ecm. fit one other ship as scram/web and the rest dps. Observe 1b+ ship lose to a fleet that costs 100m total.
Decent scorp fit: 2 particle dispersion augmentors, 2 1600mm rolled tungesten plates, damage control ii, signal distortion amplifier ii, 8 racial t2 jammers. (may fit other stuff in high slots).
It's always absurdly easy to beat 1 guy with 2 guys in eve in pvp especially if you know upfront what they are flying. (Capitals excluded)

So much ****ing fail in this thread, I can barely believe it.
10 v 1
TEN VERSUS ****ING ONE!?
And your solutions, are to "DOCK DOCK DOCK! RUN TO NPC!"
Holy. ****ing. ****.
He was ONE guy. ONE SODDING GUY .. flitting about in a Mach?! I could take 10 alts, all a week old.. and beat him.
Everyone who recommended anything other than GANK THE LIVING CRAP OUT OF HIM should biomass themselves, quit the game, and go do something else. Cross-stitch, perhaps.
All you need:
1 x Neut / tracking dissy Arby 1 x Blackbird ? x Neut / nano ruptures or even ****ING THRASHERS.
**** that. Literally any combination of 10 cheap ships and you've got a billion ISK killmail on your corp record.
Seriously. You outnumbered the guy TEN TO ONE in the only MMO that really allows lower skilled players to work together to defeat a stronger opponent. And you failed.
From the OP, I can kinda understand this. He wants to learn, and that is admirable.
But to the rest of you .... the rest of you spineless, clueless, idiots?
Just quit.
Just go. Get out of my game. Also? I just tricked you into reading my signature. |

Originally by: Cosmic Templar @Holy One Why all the anger? Anyway. In the perfect world we would be able to take this guy out and then proceed to gloat in local, however we do not have the resources currently ourselves. Most of our pilots are doing the mission running (carebear) stype gameplay, (myself included) as a means to an end, that end being a bankroll affording us the luxury of losing ships in PVP. Why fail to recognize that?
Anyway my OP was more an appeal for help and/or support to help kill the griefer, which judging by your interests within the game would seem to appeal to you as much as anyone. Why hate then? Anyways. If you are interested in helping PM in game. Thanks for all the replies.
Fight or quit...I was leaning towards fight theres 10 of you...then this post...quit. ========= "I am not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, but why can`t we just take the safety labels off everything and let the problem fix its self |

Sun Tsu is now spinning in his grave at approximately 7200 rpm. You'd better find yourself a deep hole somewhere to hide in and give your stufz away AFTER you crawl into it. He may have had his feet cut off, but he can still kick YOUR ass.
