I had friendly noob ship fight. I chosed Ibis (Caldari power) and my opponent Velator. I planned to beat him with my range bonus and stay away from his guns. Unfortunately Velator can field 2 small drones. Tech2 small drones with good skills have so many HP that I can't kill them in time. Maybe if I use blasters and one light drone but than again I loose my range advantage and I can't beat Vealator in blaster fight.
Before patch I could try to sacrifice one slot for smartbomb. Unfortunately now smarties are almost useless against tech2 drones.
My next idea will be fitting two tech2 125mm railguns with antimatter and killing Velator before dying. We start at 30km so I may have enough time.
Any ideas?

That is such a waste of time -.-
Get in a Raven and he in a dominix,
waste of time too, but more fun.
Ibis of doom vs Velator of hell

Raven vs Domi in friendly fight => Domi loosing. I would fit MWD and webbing drones and just move away from his NOS range while still shooting. And I prefer simple ships - more fun because less slots and you HAVE to choose wisely.

Well, in 'friendly' fights, (at least the way we do it), unless you're testing a tackler setup then scramblers tend to be irrelevant - if you warp out, or if you get to a predetermined 'stop' point (e.g. 50% structure) you are out of the fight / lose.

As you said, there is no-warpout rule. And we fought to the death.
I won next fight by using 125mm guns with thorium. I found I could use even 150mm with spike ammo which gives me >40km optimal but I don't need to shoot so far, I can lock to 33km only.
Anyways I am impressed by damage output of Velator with tech 2 blasters and drones.

t1 frig fights are the most fun thing out there, its just a shame there no arena for it in eve in high sec space, would be fun to have a 0.0 spot in empire were the gates only allow t1 frigs in, thats concord controlled and targeting a pod would get your ship blown up. then ppl could go in and fight for fun not there lives

That would be very cool. Great idea.
We also play with frigs in our corp for fun, things like Punishers, Kessies and Tristans. But also have a non-T2 ruling to help even out chances for the members with less SP.

Personally i like it. With tech 2 you can really take those frigates to the edge of their capabilities. I would love to see one of those things kill a cruiser for example.

Putting invulnerability field 2 on ibis is too much. 14mil mod on noob ship is an option for very rich people. But tech2 guns are cheap enough.
As of areana idea... It would be enough if you could shoot gang members without any penalties. Just as it was before. It would simplify running mixed corp gangs in empire too.
I really don't know how this is better for noobs now than before. Before you just have to check if a person ganging you is not a pirate. Now you need to check if a person ganging you is not at war with any pirate corporation to avoid ganking.
Please CCP, allow for shooting gang members.

Easy enough to set up friendly fights, just take one ammo from your opponent's can.

Battlegrounds ruined pvp in WoW, I think the same could happen to EvE if you add this. Eve has got the best pvp of all games atm, you don't want to ruin that do you?

except that more pvp happens on sisi because its got fight club
truth be told, less pvp happens in eve because of how game mechanics work.

you can fit a medium pulse II and a heatsink II on the amarr noobship. If that's not a sign, i don't know what is.
At some point i'm going to organise a NoobFleet of noobships to camp a gate and gank the **** out of passing 'ceptors.
no skills, just luck.

raaaar! fear the ebil vely!!!
try doing it with civy and basic gear 
hehe, newbie frigs with faction and officer gear. now thats some pimping i could actualy like 
hehe, take a look at my sig to see what pain you can inflict with a civy gun 
Because sometimes you just have to go back to your roots:

The fantastic thing about the civvy guns is that they actually make ammo less damaging than it was to begin with. |
