Shadow Paquito Rage

So I was derping around Aeschee in my Fleet Cane. Warp to the outgate and find Proteus + Orthrus waiting. Orthrus jumps through.....so I align off and warp to a station npnpnp. Push my scout through and yep Orthrus is waiting on the otherside (he cloaked on the gate!). Quick refit for cloak and stabs and back to the gate. Proteus jumps with me.

MWD, align, cloak...decloak and warp to freedom. Then in local:

[14:14:24] Paquito > bahahahahahahahahahaha

[14:14:33] Paquito > shit tier

[14:14:49] Naoru Kozan > for not fighting a hard counter?


Then through my secret spy network:

[14:15:54] Paquito > he refit a cloak

[14:16:00] Paquito > like a massive shiteating coward

[14:16:07] Paquito > because he is a massive shiteating coward


So then I jump on Shadow TS, prod some other Shadow dudes to tell him to come talk to me and then get banned from their server.

Totally fucking worth it lol.

Back in Eve

So yeah, I took a 4 month break from Eve.

Why? I was bored with the meta and making no effort in pvp. I also made a video, which got some bad feedback. Typically I'm not to fussed about copping hate online. But in this case it actually struck home...thick skin blah blah blah. Going back and watching the last vid (Javelin) the dude was right. Compared to previous efforts the majority of the fights were average or outright garbage with only a few standouts. So I scrubbed the vid from youtube and deleted everything Eve related from my computer.

"Lolz, you mad bro?"

"Yeah, a bit and no you can't have my stuff."

Its a strange dichotomy making Eve pvp vids. The slightest error in piloting is highlighted and picked apart. Fights that felt epic at the time get replayed and look boring. And it can take months of bad fights to get that "HOLY FUCK THAT WAS AMAZING FIGHT!" After you realise fraps was not running haha. But the losses pile up dragging morale lower making the game seem as waste of time. At this point you can either go full whiny bittervet on the forums or just step back and take a break. I chose the latter.

So what brought me back? The battlecruiser changes. It evoked memories of tooling around in arty canes and nano drakes with The Tuskers. Ironically I haven't flown a single BC in combat since my return. But I have been steadily burning through my stockpiles of T1 cruisers (and burning through my remaining funds). I got the fire for pvp back, I've been making an active effort to come up with new fits and try new boats. Even tried flying a few brawlers to break up the whole never stop kiting thing. Dual rep dual prop Cynabal, dual rep Vigilant and shitty brawling Thoraxs just to name a few lol.

I've also been doing some proper solo piloting leaving the links at home. Arty Thrasher has been getting some solid results (fragged two Jackdaws and a bunch of T1 garbage). I think its an important thing to do as links become a crutch for lazy piloting. Just like ECM, logistics and excessive numbers. Not having fits that rely on links to be effective is a priority. "Brain In The Box" may actually see light of day sometime in the next 6 months/3-5 years lol. So a link rework is probably on the cards.

Odds are I will do another vid. I'm really looking foward to trying out the new BCs. Fleet Cane looks dope as fuck.

Until next time.

How long is to long?

Damn it has been a while!

Ok, so after narrowly missing a missioning Ishtar in Bosena I noticed he docked up in station. I logged Naoru out on his mission, logged all alts who were active after I probed the guy and logged in another alt to watch for him undocking.

Two hours of Youtube vids and housework later he undocks and warps back to his mission. I log Naoru back in, land on top of the Ishtar and secure the kill.

The kill itself is nothing impressive, but I recieved some great hatemail from it.

5ZXX-K Holiday

So on a random fit of whimsy I decided to go farm some Mordus missions and farm the Mordus mission runners in 5ZXX-K. To be honest, I was expecting hell camps, blobs galore and full on combat.

Turns out the system was quiet as hell.

Mordus Angels are on deployment to Delve. All that remained were the dregs, scrubs and carebears. A group of rusrus Goons also hangs out in system, Raging Ducks/OEG. I had a few skirmishes with them and suprisingly they were extremely competent and PVP. I lost a Nomen and Gila due to bad piloting and severly underestimating the Goons. Hats off to them, flying against aggressive and competent pvpers pushes me to fly and fight harder. Easy ganks/kills make pilots lazy lol.

Carebear kills.....I tagged a lot of them lol.

Final tally was:

6 Tengu's

9 Ishtar's

1 Gila

Also had some fun skirmishes in my Orthrus (came close to losing it about 3 times).

I did manage to get some mission running done. I pulled about 250,000 LP and cashed it out in Garmur BPCs. Mission running is something I can only handle in small bursts and after one intense farming I scooted back to Bosena in Molden Heath.

This is what my carriers hold looked like.


Profitable few days. Mods all came from mission runner kills lol.

Orthrus in 78R-PI

Kronos is out and with it came shiney new toys. I had no luck ratting for the Mordus cruiser...but Diz was great and sold me a BPC for 300 mil. After piling on some expensive faction and dead space mods I proceeded to do my best to lose it.

All I can say is...HOLY FUCK BALLS BATMAN! This ship is fucking crazy!

Comments from various capsuleers:

[13:41:31] nGu RaZaq > how the fuck 3000ms/s, 20km scram and 50km point

 [13:24:52] nGu RaZaq > dis shit is fuckin op ^^

[15:12:53] Ecalta > ORTHRUS WTF

[14:53:40] oUTSKIRTs > go away :)
[14:53:43] Naoru Kozan > ok
[14:53:44] oUTSKIRTs > lol

After a near death to a NC. Crow blob I frantically fled to the depths of Tennerifis. Guess I hit adrenaline overload lol. After a brief break I started the long trek back to Bosena.

Orthrus is bloody fun but odds are itwill get nerfed. Tis fucking OP in it's current form.


Anywho, screenshots!

Close escape

After a quick dance with TEXN and DNS in Atlar me and Floorist decide to disengage as numbers start piling up on the hostile side. I bounce to station and then to the Illamur gate (gotta love a warpspeed rigged nano Cruise Typhoon).

Jumping into the normally dead system I find a 25 man gang sitting on the gate......oh dear.

Ok, nothing is in scram range (regional gate FTW), align station and heat the MWD. Long pointed, webbed, neuted and jammed....hit the MJD. MJD cycles as one cruiser pulls within 16KM.



Damn that was close! Had to get up and take a walk around the house to relax afterwards.
