hop on cheap jc's for pvp nights. I did this in 0.0. IN the cheap clone...well then it was pvp till the cows comes home. For example I'd hop in the cheap clone Friday night and not see the more pimp clones until Sunday even Monday. Places I was at got busier on the weekends, so I'd ride that wave till all the kiddies back in school and all the grown ups jsut can't run late nighters with work coming the next day.
Timer is okay, like someone else has said it needs to be 22-23 hours as the timer is buggy for this so that its more like 25-26 hours and not 24. The long limit is so that you don't have say test jc'ing to attack your left flank of your space then jc'ing to attack the right all in the same night. test has to commit to one attack...or opt to blood clone and deal with those consequences.
Also based on experience in game, losing the +4 clone for 1 day here and there does not wreck a training plan. Fun fact...take a pita train like large energy turret 5. Did this recently. Like 18 days with my stats. If you swtich out to a a +3 clone around day 7 or 8....you add hours to the train. Just hours. A fact overlooked with the 4 and 5 implants is they work best on trains with lots and lots time left to them. Shorter the train, the more worthless they are. Evemon up all subsystem skills train to 5 with 3's and 4's. Those 4's save you very little time. Now put them 4's into hell carrier 5. There you see the difference...till that carrier 5 gets down to less than halfway.
A good night or 2 of pvp will be a blast that should have you not even caring about your sp per hour. I have had some kick ass meat grinder nights where I ran the clone naked, no implants. I was dying too much to make even +3's a bad investment. However, I had a blast the whole night. And I learned alot more about pvp than a better sp/hour take in would have given me.
And my usual...a skill number on a screen is not what makes a pvp'er good, its actually doing the pvp that does this. I know bitter vets on shake and bake cyno alts who will for a fraction of many peopls's totals stll whoop some ass. Fit and flying...I haven't touched pvp for far too long. Saying I am rusty as hell would be an undertstatement. I'll bet isk there is 5 mil sp pure pvp rifter pilot out there who will whoop my 68 million sp ass. they live to pvp. I spam missions currently.
your other option is to get better at clearing pods. fun fact...pods are not instapoppable if you get lucky. One night I came home in a pod smoking from hull damage. Yes it was damaged....but it came home. Somedays the sun shines on this dog's ass...I took a a few pot shots, but not enough to kill the pod. |
