Hello,
I'm trying to find the names of the best solo PvPers ( Fw or nullsec ) so I can study what kind of ships they fly to learn something for me too ( being myself limited to solo play for real life issues ).
Is there a way to find them on Zkill or elsewhere?
Are there some websites with names?

I guess I was curious as to what kind of PvP you want to try. FW, HS ganking, null roaming, WHs, etc.
Being good at one of those solo doesn't necessarily mean you're going to be good at the others

Hey,
I highly recommend you don't stalk people like Chessur and me. We either fly "tryhard" with full faction fit, links and high-grade Snakes when we want to win or "casual" with very experimental, probably bad and at least underperforming ships with a clean clone and no links when we want to have fun. Neither of those are good to copy for an inexperienced player trying to learn.
For what you're looking for, you should check out Suitonia and his alt SharkPrince2001. He's a very skillful and knowledgeable player who focus on being competitive with frigates and destroyers without faction, implants or links. He also has a YouTube channel and Twitch channel where he explains his thought process during fights, tips and tricks, fittings, and so on.
Hope this helps. |

Thx for your answer and for the answers of all the kind persons here,
Yes, my pvp alt is training for a kestrel following Suitonia's pdf guide, I think it's very nice, the only thing is he prefers to fight in nullsec while I am practicing in fw at the moment, but I saw he has some fw videos too so I'll study them for sure.

It's sad that I have to say this, but stay away from faction warfare as you learn. A big part of learning is dying repeatedly and growing from your mistakes. If you fight in lowsec, you're unlikely to know if you lost to someone because you made a mistake or if they had implants and/or links which will let them win no matter what. In nullsec you're much less likely to encounter links or implants, which will give you a much better idea of what you and your ship are capable of. You also have to consider the different metas in lowsec and nullsec. Suitonia's Kestrel is complete trash in lowsec as MWD brawling is just not viable in the AB heavy lowsec meta with very few exceptions.

I think that there are so few true solo (I consider solo as being 1 human player using 1 ship, with no links.) that you may well just want to know who are the solo players of any calibre. |

Although I'm offen solo roaming in lowsec, this is more for loot collection and "cleaning" space of AFK players than fair fights ... but I used to learn frigate solo pvp in FW space against players of similar age. There were plenty of opportunities, you may have to roam a bit and check local vs. killboard, but there are people out there for solo fights. Lowsec has the advantage of gated plexes and easy reshipping in your local trade hub.

Probably me. Jokes asides: Suitonia, Aldap(now Jim Jams) not very active, Mr duffo. Those are the true soloers I consider good. There are more, those should be enough for now.
I mostly do solo pvp with high degrees of success. I win mostly by fitting smart and knowing what to engage, not much 'skill' piloting on my part. Unedited sample with skype soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vTATS8fiKc. |

Roaming true solo is incredibly difficult.
I think solo as stated by others is: alone, no other characters or fleet mates with you. This is uncommon.
I used to use a Cynabal as my go-to solo ship as it was fast, quick to warp, good at getting out of bad situations (MWD/AB allow you to kite back to gates under somewhat heavy camp) and had a flight of EC-300 drones to jam out targets.
I've personally had a couple hundred kills in Cynabals, and lost just over 30 in the course of acquiring those:
http://www.rotekapelle.com/killboard/?a=pilot_detail&plt_ext_id=781584111&view=ships_weapons
If you're looking to solo yourself, and learn how to handle it there's a lot to know. I'll try to start some quick points below, but let me know if you want me to go on, and I'll try to elaborate as much as I can if you're interested.
Ships:
I'd recommend starting with something very simple. Frigates (t1 or t2) are always a great starting point.
You have strength in your small size, signature and speed. Use this with orbit command to help stay under your opponents guns and reduce their ability to track you.
The small size also allows you to travel great distances relatively quickly, to find and qualify your fight.
As a newbie to solo pvp I would recommend looking into using
- Atron (blaster gank)
- Kestrel (TD/AB/LML kite)
- Rifter (autocannon, afterburner, scrambler, tracking disruptor)
Tips:
* Not every fight is your fight, be careful about picking your engagements;
** are they alone?
** can your ship out-dps, out-kite, out-ewar, or out-tank their ship long enough for you to win?
*** If it seems close, it's probably worth going for it, and being aggressive. This can be very fun and lead to some surprising results.
* What is your exit strategy?
** are you fighting on a gate? can you tank them for 60s if things go bad and jump away?
** are you able to out-run them and warp to safety?
* can you afford to lose your ship?
** if the answer is no, get something cheaper
* why would they want to fight you?
** if you can win a fight, it's likely you won't be attacked by the target. How can you entice them to fight you? Make yourself look vulnerable, etc.?

Vaspasean, Valatie and Bienator II are the three best pure solo pilots I ever have met in eve.
Vaspasean - probably the coolest guy I ever had the pleasure of flying with in eve, learned a few niche concerts from him over the years and was often impressed by his skills with a slicer. No super shiny killboard or YouTube videos to show off with, just my word as vouch.
Valatie - a bit of an odd character but great pilot with huge amount of knowledge who was great to chat to about all things small scale PVP. Had a bit of a fracturious relationship with him as when I knew him we were polar opposites, he was purist solo PvP I ran about 5 accounts in PvP.
Bienator - couldn't so such a list without my favourite German who still kicks around in amarr FW.
As a note vast majority of my experience is from the Amarr vs minmatar FW warzone. |

Brawling in FW plexes is infinitely better than null sec roams, actually. It's much faster to find fights, and you're much closer to resupply when you lose a ship.
My suggestion: Check long range for obvious link ships (Claymore, Astarte, Loki, Proteus), and then hit the novice and check short range D-scan to see what's coming at you. Avoid fights which are obviously out of your league (faction/pirate frigs come to mind here). Frig fights are often over before a blob can land anyway. Besides, links don't play that heavily into scram kiting anyway - especially if you get to dictate engagement terms by virtue of being the first in the plex.
I'd personally roll with an Executioner, but the Tormentor is really a better ship. The Tristan, Incursus, Merlin, Kestrel, Breacher, and Slasher all very powerful as well. I dislike the Atron and Punisher in particular.

Kinda, but a webbed OGB+Snake+Quafe overheated AB slasher is only going to be going ~1200 m/s, and still has to get in your face to deal damage. As long as you're both playing the same game it'll turn out fine.

Novice plexing against people with HG implants and links in T1 trash is what I do in Eve.
I'm not saying you can't fight them - but you need skills/equipment and knowledge to do so.
What Tikktokk was saying is that for *new* players, who don't even know their own capabilities yet it is a bad idea - because it will give them a skewed impression of what other ships are capable of if they are only seeing them as they perform w/ high-grade implants and fleet boosts.
edit: And in the process it will discourage them regarding their own skills - as they will wonder how they can be so far behind, not realizing that much of it is due to themselves not having implants and boosts. |

Right, but I'm not sure what is going to be learned from 14 jumps from a market hub to a null sec entry only to be bubbled and instapopped by the entry gate camp. Even assuming you get in safely, how long do you have to roam to find a fight? People learn from doing, and a 10 or more fights could have been had in the time it'll take to find one fight in null sec.
Look, OGB links and implants can make a huge difference in certain kinds of fights - I totally agree. The allure of FW space is that you almost don't have to engage in those at all.
-Liang
Ed: One of the biggest down sides to frigate PVP is that it can be over so quickly. Recording your fights and watching them later is one way to gain maximum experience from them - whether you decide to go to low sec or null sec.

Check the killboards of everyone who kills you, you will get a better feel for the solo meta at the current time. The top tier players might be using some weird fit that only works with max skills and/or lots of experience.

This is good advice. Before my prolonged break I used to fly a combat Buzzard. It could kill most frigs 1v1 but I wouldnt recommend flying it to people without them getting some experience in standard shipd

I dont really get why nobody mentioned Tuskers. Am i missing something? All i met in solo PVP have been super skilled, including dope maual piloting and shipchoice/fitting without going all blingmode to win.
And each i talked to after a fight were great sports, check them out!

Thanks for the shout out.
I think part of the 'problem' is that we've moved to wormhole space. In times past, you could just rock up to Hevrice in whatever ship you liked and find someone willing to give you a gudfite.
Now, we're a bit more like a traveling carnival. We jump through our null sec static, roam an area, and then our connection changes and we are in a completely different part of New Eden. Logistics is a challenge even for us, and we know where our hole is. Finding us by chance is very unlikely.
Amusingly, most of our lossmails now seem to come from hitting gate camps as we try to get from the market to our wormhole. Or perhaps it just feels that way.

Especially considering Command BCs are likely to become more frequent soon due to reduction/simplification of training times and the general link overhaul.
Ill leave it up for debate as to whether the indicator would classify the type of link in operation.
A simple colored dot could indicate type, or just a red/green one indicating if it is or is not currently linked.
Id think this would help in choosing "gudfights".
The advantage would be mutual:
-linked players can identify non-linked targets to engage.
-non-linked players can identify linked targets to avoid/escape
-non-linked players vs non-li ked players, and li ked pkayers vs linked players both know the parameters of the engagement.
This additional info may reduce the element of surprise/unknown, but since it is mutually advantageous, the status quo is largely maintained.
I may be biased in that ive never liked links as undetectable. I acknowledge that it is the prerogative of a more established/situated player to operate links (whether on their alt or from another player), but that alone is already sufficient concrete practical advantage. As above, I think it is fair and reasonable to suggest that it is outright indicated if a ship is linked, or not, rather than ascertaining it possibly too late in an engagement from heuristic observation of opponents performance as compared to expected outcome.

Usually good conversation too.
Bringing solo back is nothing but a brag channel for people with hg implants (and previously links) to show off their shiny solo kills. |

I don't think you should focus on the best solo PvPers for your lesson.
If you do that it is like a beginning tennis fan trying to learn from Federer or Djokovic:
If you start trying to learn tennis by trying to hit heavy top-spin back hands, you are approaching it from the wrong direction.
Most tricks employing by top solo PvPers require a solid foundation in PvP basics, both in theory and in practice. Try focus on the basics first before trying to emulate the best.
