Not because of the loss. That happens.
But because of the very very obvious lack of even reading a slight bit about quite an expensive ship you are going to fly.
1.) Bit of research and he would already have known that you need cyno's and hence shouldn't had to ask how to move it.
2.) A little bit of research and he would have known you can just dock a carrier and fit it. The undockable only counts for supercapitals.
3.) He likely plays solo...or some magic happened and NPC corps are now a close bunch of players, and bought a ship that is a fleet ship (a Dread without a support fleet is just space wreck waiting to happen).
That said, a dread is kind of useless unless you plan on shooting large (nearly) stationary objects in the first place.

razzukel certiko wrote:I feel atm a bit bad about killing that guy but thats eve.
First off I dont know that guy and just spotted him with my alt sitting at the uedama gate and trying to jump into high sec.
With raz (in my tengu) being 10 jumps out I burned as fast as I could towards Kubinen.
When I arrived there he logged off but I saw him still on scan and warped to the sun to see where he is.
When I landed there I just saw him entering warp 100km away from me.
Unfortunattly I reshiped my alt from his boosting loki to a cyno punisher and had to do 1 jump to get the probing loki.
When I started scanning he dissapeared. Then I just sit there for 10-15 mins waiting for him to log back in. He logged back I pointed him cynoed in my moros alt and he died in under 1 min (He initiated self destruct in structure).
I just can say aswell dont buy a ship befor you know atleast how to move it.
gf to all involved (some pirats shoot my moros after the phoenix died).
Wait...he even tried to jump it into high-sec?
Thomas...this just proofs my point as earlier stated.
To CCP: See what happens when you dumb down EVE and make certain ships too easy to skill into. It's not the first and certainly not the last person who flies above his knowledge.

Oh, and CAS does have capitals, but we're a bit special for an NPC corp  . |

Well, I too have a carrier pilot that is still in the noob NPC corp.
But a carrier is a more a solo ship then a dreadnought is.
I haven't seen any solo dreadnought that did survive for a long time. But then again, that could also be wrong because he is clever and stays under the radar.

You can actually play around with capitals on the test server, Singularity (SiSi), because they only cost 100 ISK there, and nobody bothers you (one of the rules of SiSi).
The Phoenix is the best at hitting structures, but is the worst at hitting everything else that can move. It is a joke ship because it is so bad. I've played around with a Phoenix on SiSi simply to admire the missile graphics; that's about all it is good for.
Repeat, go to SiSi and play around in capitals first! |

I admire your attitude. The first time I lost a billion isk ship I was devastated. Next time you have questions about flying or fitting a ship, please feel free to evemail me, and I can attempt to give you some pointers or direct you to some resources.

Easy come easy go. Hopefully you learned a lesson about 'bigger is not better' and the importance of research in eve.
Or a good troll. Either way, well done.

Ivy, assuming you are not a troll, I would encourage you to join one of the new-player-friendly corporations such as Eve University, RvB, or Brave Noobies. There are good people in those corps that will help you learn the game.
Regardless, thanks for providing us with some amusement. Best of luck to you. |

I second this - Ivy, whatever else might have happened, it's clear that you have a good sense of humor. I highly encourage you to apply to EVE University where we can teach you all about EVE, even up to and including how to fly capital ships like this one when you're ready. :)

I do fully agree with how you take the loss. A +1 on the attitude.
If only ALL pilots in EVE would react like you do to a loss, it would make EVE so much more happy (no more tear-threads about own mistakes).

"covert" recruitment isn't allowed either.

Well, it did not have a fit so don-¦t think it will be insured, if he did then the lose is not so big.
But,
Thats what you get if ppl dont leave the NPC corp-¦s and don-¦t learn the game.
For all the noobies out there, join EVE-U or Brave Newbies.
And learn the game, There are some more good corp for learning the game but yeah.
One thing is for sure you are EVE famous now. :P

About two days ago I think now, I tried going after a Moros with my Ishkur. No, not solo, I just wanted to ***** on the KM a bit. I had mates with the necessary firepower to take it down. Unfortunately, he jumped before we got to him, but not before apologising for not letting us in on the Phoenix KM he'd just grabbed himself. That was the Phoenix of Ivy greene, and it's killer was razzukel certiko and his Moros alt, and I still remember his last words in local before leaving Kubinen...
"How did you guys find me? I didn't think anyone went to the sun."
Hopefully, you're in better hands with Brave Newbies, OP. Congrats on making it onto The Mittani.com. You know what they say, bad press is better than no press.

First need to learn how to fit (refering to the Raven loss)
Personally, I now have an example that SP dont mean much in relation to how good people are.

Well, I have to say:
If you are a troll, then fair play to you. You made quite a cool story and thread, which costed you a lot. It was really entertaining to read this thread, so Thank you.
If you are not a troll and you for real lost so much and still have such a good attidute to the loss - fair play to you sir again. It was entertaining for us and experience for you. Remember - BAD experience is Experience too. ;) |

You bought a cap without doing any bit of research on them...you did not deserve that ship and its best you lost it this soon.
And why oh why would a NPC dweller need a Phoenix any way. You do know they are fleet ships that require sub cap backup to survive.
I'll bet you a dread the toon was recently bought as well. No-1 hangs around for 2.5 years without picking up anything about caps or killmails for that matter...

3 notes on the reply:
1. Not bought. At least not officially as there is no post in the character bazaar of this character.
2. It is possible to stay 'dumb' for 2.5 years. By playing Log-in-2-set-skills Online or by playing this MMO solo for 2.5 years and only mine/mission.
3. If you looked at the killboard AND the date of joining you will see that the character joined after the Phoenix loss.
