Introduction to Weapon Systems covers the basics of the different types of weapon available in EVE Online, how they work, what ammunition they use, and the basics of utilizing them or countering them. This class will be useful for anyone who is ever involved in combat, even if only in PvE combat or as a potential target—knowing how each kind of weapon functions is a great way to increase your survivability!

Instructor: Uryence
When: Sunday 19 December 22:00 EVE Time
Duration: 2 hours scheduled; probably within this range depending on the Q&A--you won't have to listen to me drone on for 120 minutes!

This CORE class covers the following topics:
  • Turret Mechanics
  • Energy Turrets and their ammunition
  • Hybrid Turrets and their ammunition
  • Projectile Turrets and their ammunition
  • Missile Mechanics and ammunition
  • Drones
  • Specialist Weapons Systems
  • Q&A
Student requirements:
  • Public Mumble registration and access: make sure you have Mumble sorted out and operational well before the class begins. Use this guide for set-up: http://eveuni.org/publicmumble
  • (for asking questions) access to the Class (EVE Uni) in-game chat channel
  • Access to the EVE Uni Discord (slide presentation will occur in the Discord classroom)
Additional information:
This class is primarily a lecture and discussion delivered in public Mumble, with the slides streamed over the Eve University Discord and questions taken in the Class (EVE Uni) channel. There is no practical component or need to undock. We recommend not doing anything risky or attention-intensive in-game while listening!
The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defence. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than either. The final weapon is the brain, all else is supplementary. (Steinbeck)
