It seems unlikely that I'll get any good fights on gates in lowsec, as anyone gate-camping there will be tough enough to tank the gate guns, and by extension my puny rifter.
It seems even less likely that I'll get a fair fight in nullsec, or even survive long enough to reach null.
So, when you're just looking for frigate fights, where do you go?
Well it depends upon the level of risk you are willing to take. But there are a few options you might try:
1. Low sec - yeah you cant agress people first on gates unless they have very low security status. You can find people mining or ratting though if you look hard enough. Sooner or later, however, you may run into a gate camp and get smoked. The faction war fare plexes mentioned earlier are a good place to look. If you scan for anomolies in systems where you see a bunch of npc wrecks on d-scan you might get lucky as well.
2. Null sec - more risk. You might, and probably will, get podded frequently roaming 0.0. Large gate blobs are typical especially on regional gates. Watch out for bubbles. Learn how to avoid them. Lots of people do stupid things in null sec and you can often find folks out mining/ratting in belts or anoms. You can also get fights on gates.
3. High sec - you can join corps with war decks going on, find a fw corp, join red vs blue or eve uni or you can do other things. I used to do a lot of can flipping when I was in high sec and got lots of pvp with miners, can baiters, and people ratting in high sec belts. You can also drop a can in a fairly busy system and label it frig 1 v 1. If you are in an npc corp (and you are atm) then people who want to do a 1 v 1 will likely flip your can because they know that you will have no back up to come help (other than possible remote reppers). I used to do this frequently around perimeter but that was years ago and i have no idea if it is busy any more. I also used to randomly convo people undocking from the navy station there as it was the busiest. You would be amazed at how many 1 v 1 i was able to get from convos. Many will not be interested. Some of the younger players will be just to get a chance to learn about pvp. And no one can get podded in that type of 1 v 1 so folks are more likely to take a chance. |
