Alliance Tournament IX recently ended and the united was not the victor. Looks like its time for our pilot to move on with her plan to conquer the infamous nullsec. Into Curse she goes...
Its 0500 Zulu and pretty quiet. INIT. controls the station during this hour so its all blued up right now. After having tried to catch a couple Cynabals and a Vaga in HLW with her Rapier and Widow combo she heads back to G-0.
"Guess I'll get back in the Malediction."
Sitting outside the station, our pilot spots a Crusader at a tactical and burns for it...

Her blood was lava, her head was a hurricane, her soul was broken. A hundred methods of killing Eilyin bounced through her imagination. All I need to do is take out these guards. Come on, it’s easy. Just kill them. Break their necks, her instinct seemed to tell her. No, they have guns. Let them live, her logic replied. I don’t care, try it anyway, her emotions chimed in. They either read her mind or knew her reputation, for they kept their guns pointed during the entire walk and made every move with a careful hesitation. I recognize the one in front… The one with the scars across his cheek… he doesn’t look happy to be escorting me. I see the sweat dripping down his neck. The walk took a toll on her legs, which had lost a large amount of muscle during her sleep. But she didn’t dare complain. She couldn’t appear weak. Besides, at least she could feel. Pain was a luxury, a pleasure of life that she had been denied for too long. A door opened when they approached; the door to the hangars, and Schaa was shocked to see her old ship, looking just like when she had left it. “But...”
“Eilyin knows your tools of war. Don’t expect another one when you lose it.” The guard with the scarred face gave her a shove, and she made the rest of the walk herself. She had no illusions about the reason for this sudden ‘generosity’. A brand new ship... But what’s with this awful fit they gave me? At least they have the decency to replace my faction guns... Could I use them inside the hangar? No, no doubt they have 1600’s trained on me right now. I think I’ve had enough of this place. She coaxed the ship out of the hangar as fast as she could manage.

First Attempt At Piracy - Success!
Posted by Slaul in
Piracy
Sunday, May 30. 2010
I decided to fit out a Rifter with a cookie-cutter build and go cruising around low-sec looking for a fight. I found one. While jumping through the asteroid belts in a 0.4 system, I encountered some wrecks. Checking the ownership details, I found out whose wrecks they were and that this pilot was still in local! So I kept jumping through the belts, this time moving more quickly, and after three or four more jumps I found him! He was piloting a Vexor ratting the belts with T1 light scout drones and T1 medium scout drones.
Since it was my first time out and I've only been playing EVE for about three weeks now, I was slightly intimidated by the idea of fighting the Vexor and all the drones at the same time but I decided to do it anyways. It'd be good experience regardless of the outcome.I quickly moved in, afterburner blazing, while the Vexor pilot simply looted his wrecks; didn't he notice me?
Once I made it within range, I activated my scrambler and stasis webifier and quickly started orbiting at 500m. Within moments his shields were going down under the combined firepower of three 150mm autocannons and a rocket launcher. However, the Vexor had not yet opened fire or attacked with drones. What was he doing? Did he have a secret weapon? Apparently not because around when I started hitting his armor he finally began attacking me with, if I recall correctly, 250mm railguns which could not hit me. His drones, however, were now attacking me and were eating through my shields rather quickly.
Choosing to forgo targeting the drones in favor or trying to finish the Vexor quickly, I kept all my firepower on the main target and in short order he was into structure. At this point I opened a conversation hoping for a nice ransom to pad my wallet. However the Vexor pilot turned out to be Russian and did not speak English so he did not understand my demands for ISK and I ended up destroying the Vexor in one of the most beautiful explosions I have seen in EVE.
I decided to let the pod go and just go straight for the loot. A decision that probably enabled me to escape with any loot at all because seconds after I had filled my cargohold a battleship warped to zero right on top of me! With my armor and ammo running low, I decided to warp to a nearby planet and then docked at a station to survey my winnings. In total I made over 1.5M from my first kill!
It was a good day and I look forward to more kills, and probably deaths, in the future.

this evening started out like any other. we are at war with another corporation but they havnt been around to fight, so i decided it was a nice time to learn how to probe out ships. i started in otou, my new old stomping ground. its one of my favourites because of the arrangement of belts makes it pretty easy to find people on the directional scanner. so i start probing and after about 20 minutes of that and no positive results, i decided to give up and try my luck on some targets i saw on directional scanner. i dock up and grab my trusty arbitrator all t2 fitted with my array of drones. this may not seem like much to you, but with only 4.5mil sp, i think im doing pretty good to have a -10 sec status mainly from the use of my arby.
i head out to my scan spot to start looking through the belts. i can see them on 360 but cannot seem to find anything on 5. so i decide to sit in a belt and wait. nothing comes. i grow bored and tired and make one last attempt at 5 degree scans and i get a hit, a punisher on planet 6! this is too good to pass up and will be easy for me to pop if i can get a lock on him before he bolts. i warp into to planet 6 area at 0 and viola, there he is and ready to fight.

Another Ransom Story
Posted by Skrammer in
Piracy
Sunday, April 11. 2010
Well, I was running around Wirdalen in my rifter today, cruising the belts looking for ANYTHING to fight, and i came upon a rather rare sight. Sitting before me in the 3rd belt was a hulk that was only a few months old, with a full flight of T1 Interceptor drones circling him, mining into a can. I noticed he was in a corp, so I naturally assumed it was a trap. I decided it was much too juicy a mark to pass up, so I very discreetly zoomed up to his can at 750 M/s and canflipped him. There were millions in ore just sitting in the can, so I knew he'd be pissed. I was definately right. Before I even got all the ore out, he was targetting me, and his drones were swarming me. I ignored them and started pounding his shields with my autocannons. after a while I realized he was shield tanked, and I was now down into my armor tank. I started attacking his drones and killed all but 3, and then realized I was into structure. Crap. I warped to the sun (because nobody ever checks the sun, and its freaking shiny and fun to look at) and put several weapons offline so I could regenerate my armor. After five minutes of regenerating, I decided to warp back in and try again. This time he has a few more drones, but im not going to make the same mistake. I scrammed, webbed, and orbited him and fought off his drones. after the fifth satisfying explosion, I started in on him. after abour 5-10 mins of pounding, his shields and armor melted away. When he got to structure, I hailed him. He was taking awhile to respond, but it didnt matter because his only corpmate in the system was in an almost totally unarmed mammoth. I asked for a ransom of 70 million. after about a minute of yet more silence, and one failed transfer of 7000, his buddy warped in. In a freaking merlin. I cracked up. Then I told him to call off the merlin, and within 20 seconds the merlin self destructed. I told him he had 20 seconds to poppage. Then My wallet blinked. I saw more money than ive ever seen, being only a couple weeks old, and I smiled. I warped off towards the sunset, and lived happily ever after.
Arbitrary Judgement

Sunday, January 31. 2010
Due to the encouragement received (thank you Kissa for your comment on my last post!) I am going to tell you all a tale of a slightly better battle than last time! Huzzah!
Many players believe that in combat, having a bigger ship means you win. This, as I am about to demonstrate through the incontrovertible truth of "Me saying it", is not the case. I have recently begun to grow a little tired of my can-flipping activities - miners are a spirited bunch, but aren't always equipped to provide a stimulating battle - and so have found a new way to curb my blood-lust. I need only three things: A scan ship with probes, a cruiser, and the ability to stop myself hitting the "Warp" button when I enter structure. The last of those was absolutely vital in this encounter...
My weapon of choice - the Amarr arbitrator. I am a drone specialist, and so probably should have trained for Gallente, but the Amarr vessels looked so pretty and shiny, how could I resist? Anyway, enough of my rambling - on to the method! Firstly, I use the scan-ship to scan down a mission runner in one of the major level 4 mission hubs (But which one? Ah, you shall never know! Unless I tell you later). I then proceed to it at warp in my arbitrator, appraise myself of my target, judge his viability for pew-pew, and then...steal his "ultra-valuable" mission loot. It's usually something like a cap booster 800.
At this point, the following thoughts tend to cross the mind of the target. Either 1) Hey, that guy's in a cruiser stealing from a battleship? Something's going on here...I'm not rising to it. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the sensible option, which I implore you all to take if I ever show up in your mission. Alternatively, the mark could think 2) Hey, what does this guy think he's doing, stealing my cap boosters? I shall show him my 1337 pew-pew skillz! I must be able to win easily, because I'm in a battleship!
Unfortunately for my victim in this story, they thought 2) was the best answer to their problem. I had scanned myself down an Abaddon! I like Amarr battleships - because I armor tank, I have pretty nice EM resistances, and that's pretty much all lasers do. This particular Abaddon was fighting Guristas - so naturally, I gave them every chance by taking Explosive drones that they were weak to. Aren't I lovely?
As soon as I went flashy red, I saw myself being targeted. Wonderful...now let's see if that plate holds up. I almost forgot to turn on my damage control II, but was rather glad I did...the first volley cut my armor down to 40%! At this point, I seriously considered running like a frightened child. I then weighed up the options: 1) 2 more shots like that and I'm toast. 2) I'm 15km away from this guy. Most likely using beams. Probably inside multifrequency optimal. 3) My afterburner means I can close rather quickly... 4) Oooh, I have tracking disruptors! *pokes activation button*.
Unfortunately, that wasn't quite enough...another shot slammed into my hull, setting alarms off across the ship. Tactical readouts showed my armor vanish, and my hull plummet to 14%! My ship was on fire, and the metaphorical space-rats were abandoning ship. Oh dear...well, no time to align and warp now!
I hit the warp disruptor and the armor repper, waiting for the next shot. After the cycle time of about 9.2 seconds, it came. White-hot energy lanced out of the Abaddon's guns, scything towards my stricken cruiser, and...missed. My tracking disruptors had done their work, and I was now within 2km of the ship. There was nothing it could do to hit me!
I surveyed my arsenal - now I had all the time in the world. There were no members of my victims corps in channel, so I could do this calmly. With 14% hull, I couldn't make any mistakes...especially not with my orbital velocity. It was then that I noticed a cloud of drones spewing forth from the Abaddon...the Hornet I's of imminent doom! Launching my own light drones (tech 2), I made short work of them and the vespa I's that followed. Now I had truly eliminated all threats, and I recalled my light drones and threw my medium drones upon the battleship.
Slowly, my drones pecked away at the armor of the mighty vessel. After 15 minutes, there were still none of the pilot's corpies in local - and now they couldn't touch me anyway, as the aggression timer was over. Yay. Still, I had about half of this guy's armor to go. It was at this point that I remembered that I had neuts fitted.
Feeling like an idiot, I threw my tech 2 neuts onto the ship as well. The armor started dropping rapidly now - obviously his repper couldn't function without cap. My capacitor needed careful management too, but I had the advantage of a Nosferatu as well.
A further 2 minutes of this treatment and I had armor down to a tiny sliver. I toyed with the idea of seeing it explode so I could have a nice, shiny, Abaddon killmail to polish, but I remembered my lessons that I learned on EVE - Pirate...Real pirates ransom. Unless its a war target. Opening a conversation, I am treated to a lovely, polite opening line from my victim..."Wtf?". Granted, I have just committed a random act of violence against them and their shiny ship. I start with my customary "Hello sir, you appear to be in a spot of pirate - related difficulty. Shall we agree a price to rectify this situation?". My victim is quite co-operative, and pays me a cool 35 million for the safe release of their ship. Honoring the ransom, I de-activate my scrambler and watch the battleship limp towards the nearest station. Now to get the holes in my damn ship fixed...
I had thought that the end of the story would lie there, but no! My CEO received an EVE-mail from my victim, which he forwarded to me (After he had stopped laughing at my new escapades). Here it is, readers - the message itself. Bear in mind that the character I attacked was 2 months older than my own.
"Being a chick and new to this game I just have to say something. I just want to tell you its really crappy what your corp member did to me. I understand your corp likes pvp and Im a 'carebear' but II havent learned enough in this game so its my choice. Its one thing to pvp its another thing to come into someones mission who is minding there own business almost kll them and ransom them I dont think thats fair play. Personally I think its fucked up. And I am sure this is falling on deaf ears since youzmay condone this action but I feel I had to say my peace. And this is definately not directed to you personally but someday I will get a grasp on this game and get my shit together (as long as people like your mate dont jack me) and what goes around comes around."
No spellcheckers were harmed (or used) in the creation of this EVEmail. By the way, I really look forward to the time they do come after me and "What goes around comes around". I could use a fight!
Until next time I manage to find something interesting in my Inbox, this is me, signing off. Fly safe - but not too safe!

Piracy
Friday, November 13. 2009
A few weeks ago, just after I reactivated my account, I decided that I would start down the path of the pirate after being inspired by some of the stories here on EVE Pirate. I started training the skills for Gallente ships to use for solo pvp and set about flipping cans in my stabbed, shield extended Hoarder, or sometimes an Incursus.
After about a week, I came across two Retrievers mining into a can in Anntiri piloted by bbylethh and shawzy007. I examine the can, just one piece of ore, great. I steal it anyway to provoke a response, but not honestly expecting anything, I just sit there, looking lazily at the two mining barges, expecting this to be just another pair of your standard breed of miner, smart enough to ignore the can flipping scum like myself. I was wrong...

Sweet Kill - Maller vs Myrmidon

Piracy
Wednesday, January 7. 2009
This is my most memorable solo kill so far so i decided to put my thoughts to paper before i forget the whole experience.
After running several missions, i suddenly got the urge for some 1-vs-1 action. Its been a while since i last killed someone so i decided to go on a suicide run in my Maller. Low sec is just a few jumps away from my home system; i arrived at the first system, checked the people, and decided to leave. it was no good, 2-3 year old peeps of the same corp, too risky. same with the second system.
the third system only got one person in it; i scanned him and found out he was in a Myrmidon, ratting, and just a few days older than me (im 3 months old). Perfect!!
Turned on my DCII as i warped to his location, already my hands are trembling from the excitement. As i went out of warp i landed 6km from him. He was there, drones already out and finishing the last of the frigate rats in the belt. I targeted him, scram, web, nos, orbit and began to fire. Unfortunately, im using my Scorch crystals because i didnt expect to land this close to the target, i quickly changed to Conflagration and felt i lost some important seconds while doing so.
When his first volley hit me, almost 50% of my shield disappeared! 2nd volley and my shield completely went out! Shit! He deals major DPS! by this time i was thinking of warping out, but strangely, i cant!! WTF! then i noticed he was scramming and webbing me as well! OMG, he was armed for PvP and not for ratting.
I cant warp out. Ill have to fight my way thru if i want to save my ship. Then i remembered i was armor tanked, shield is nothing, maybe my tank will hold. I activated my repper. We exchanged fire for a few seconds and my tank did well, my repper is keeping my armor at 70% while his armor is slowly dropping. I did notice he was able to repair large amounts of damage.
Then a message popped up in local; and it distracted me. "Bye" he said. Huh? Am i losing? Was he that confident of winning? I checked my modules, the repper isnt working anymore! My cap is out and my armor is at 30%! His armor is also almost out and i quickly weighed my options. Should i turn off all weapons and modules to conserve cap and activate my repper? or keep on fighting? I decided to keep on fighting. Hell yeah! This is what im here for. Time to focus all my cap to my weapons, so i turned off my webber, he's in a battlecruiser, a webber wont affect him that much, next comes my warp disruptor, i left it up to him whether to stay and fight or warp out. If he stood and fight, which i know he will since he already assured himself he will win, its ok. If he warps out to save his ship, also saving my ship in the process, thats fine with me as well.
As i expected he continued fighting. My only consolation is knowing that DCII gives me 60% hull resistance. Looking at his ship, his armor is almost out too, so his cap may not be able to support his repper anymore. I noticed his weapons arent firing that often anymore, he must have switched them off to save cap for his warp disruptor and webber. His main source of DPS now are his drones.
As for me, my DCII continues to run and my medium nos. I switched all my crystals from Conflagration to Scorch since Scorch uses a lot less cap. Surprisingly, my medium nos is enough to keep all my weapons active.
I watched closely as we both entered structure; im dealing more damage.. i began to smile.. watching the red bar of his structure, 50%, 80%, 90%.. there was a slight pause.. i quickly checked my structure, 57%, all good... then poofff.. his ship blew up.. it was so sweet.. i said "GF" in local and warped off..

Low sec is just a few jumps away from my home system; i arrived at the first system, checked the people, and decided to leave. it was no good, 2-3 year old peeps of the same corp, too risky. same with the second system.
the third system only got one person in it; i scanned him and found out he was in a Myrmidon, ratting, and just a few days older than me (im 3 months old). Perfect!!
Turned on my DCII as i warped to his location, already my hands are trembling from the excitement. As i went out of warp i landed 6km from him. He was there, drones already out and finishing the last of the frigate rats in the belt. I targeted him, scram, web, nos, orbit and began to fire. Unfortunately, im using my Scorch crystals because i didnt expect to land this close to the target, i quickly changed to Conflagration and felt i lost some important seconds while doing so.
When his first volley hit me, almost 50% of my shield disappeared! 2nd volley and my shield completely went out! Shit! He deals major DPS! by this time i was thinking of warping out, but strangely, i cant!! WTF! then i noticed he was scramming and webbing me as well! OMG, he was armed for PvP and not for ratting.
I cant warp out. Ill have to fight my way thru if i want to save my ship. Then i remembered i was armor tanked, shield is nothing, maybe my tank will hold. I activated my repper. We exchanged fire for a few seconds and my tank did well, my repper is keeping my armor at 70% while his armor is slowly dropping. I did notice he was able to repair large amounts of damage.
Then a message popped up in local; and it distracted me. "Bye" he said. Huh? Am i losing? Was he that confident of winning? I checked my modules, the repper isnt working anymore! My cap is out and my armor is at 30%! His armor is also almost out and i quickly weighed my options. Should i turn off all weapons and modules to conserve cap and activate my repper? or keep on fighting? I decided to keep on fighting. Hell yeah! This is what im here for. Time to focus all my cap to my weapons, so i turned off my webber, he's in a battlecruiser, a webber wont affect him that much, next comes my warp disruptor, i left it up to him whether to stay and fight or warp out. If he stood and fight, which i know he will since he already assured himself he will win, its ok. If he warps out to save his ship, also saving my ship in the process, thats fine with me as well.
As i expected he continued fighting. My only consolation is knowing that DCII gives me 60% hull resistance. Looking at his ship, his armor is almost out too, so his cap may not be able to support his repper anymore. I noticed his weapons arent firing that often anymore, he must have switched them off to save cap for his warp disruptor and webber. His main source of DPS now are his drones.
As for me, my DCII continues to run and my medium nos. I switched all my crystals from Conflagration to Scorch since Scorch uses a lot less cap. Surprisingly, my medium nos is enough to keep all my weapons active.
I watched closely as we both entered structure; im dealing more damage.. i began to smile.. watching the red bar of his structure, 50%, 80%, 90%.. there was a slight pause.. i quickly checked my structure, 57%, all good... then poofff.. his ship blew up.. it was so sweet.. i said "GF" in local and warped off..
