[COMPLETED] Intro to Fleets [practical class roam]

[Rathe Gardson]

Introduction to Fleets Roam [Class]
What:
This practical class is designed for newer players or those new to fleets. The roam will introduce you to participating in a fleet. We’ll practice on some PvE targets. I intend this to be relatively safe and easy for new pilots. Prior attendance of the E-Uni Introduction to Fleets class is highly recommended but not essential. You may attend this practical more than once, even if you attended the roam after an Introduction to Fleets class. This should also be a good start before beginning your own PvE fleets or the new Home Front Faction Warfare challenges.
Class size for this practical is kept small to facilitate a high teacher – student ratio and ensuring you get the most out of this class as possible. The goal is for you to learn fleet basics and be comfortable joining larger fleets. I will schedule more micro/small-fleet classes based on interest, so watch the calendar.
We will cover and practice fleet commands, using fleet windows, and fleet maneuver before going on a High Sec roam to take down one or more larger NPC pirate anomalies as time permits. I’ll give tips and tricks for more efficient PvE during the roam.
Loaner training frigates will be provided at Stacmon – The Quad at no cost to students. I suggest you show up 15 minutes early to receive your training ship on contract. You may show up in your own Tristan, but you don’t have to put your own ship at risk.
