Nothing can replace experience, but this class aims to give you better shapes into which to sort PvP experience as you get it.
Instructor: Uryence
When: Tuesday 5 July, 19:30 EVE Time
Where: Mumble (audio) and Discord (slides, gameplay streaming); you will need to use both to get the full class
Note that due to changes in our auth system, this will be on the general, normal Uni Mumble, not the old public server!
Duration: 2 hours scheduled; probably less than this, depending on the Q&A—you won't have to listen to me drone on for 120 minutes!
This class covers the following topics:
- Movement & tackle mechanics recap
- Weapon Timer & its effects on combat
- Brawling range
- Skirmishing range
- Sniping range
- Q&A
- Mumble registration and access: make sure you have Mumble sorted out and operational well before the class begins. Use this page for set-up.
- Access to the EVE Uni Discord (slide presentation will occur in a Discord classroom, and Discord will be the main channel for text questions)
This class is a lecture, delivered in Mumble, with the slides delivered on the EVE University Discord and questions taken in the relevant Discord channel. There is no practical component or need to undock. We recommend not doing anything risky or attention-intensive in-game while listening!
OPTIONAL preparation:
You can attend this class with absolutely zero preparation and it should still be useful. But its content might synergise well with:
- the CORE Introduction to Weapon Systems class, which you can catch on 8 May; see also the slide deck for IWS, linked on its wiki page
- the new EVE Academy info on combat mechanics
- Yto's basics of tackle video
- Yto's tackle modules discussion
- the CORE Introduction to Fleets class; if you can't catch this being taught, you can review the slide deck linked here
