Reload A friend of mine and i are more or less by ourselves trying to take on the world. We mine, we run missions, we hunt rats, and we need a corp of more than 2 people. Any suggestions?
+Dan Downing I can only suggest big alliances like Brave and Pandemic Horde. I've been playing solo or with a very small group of people in the past, so don't know of any good medium sized corps. Most importantly, don't stay in one corp too long if their playstyle doesn't match yours.
This was explained very well, and I do love the longer video format Reload! I tried to do something similar to this when I started the game as my frigate vs multiple frigates in high sec resulted in many losses. I didn't believe I could actually do this until I tried it. Also.. my eight year old son watched this with me, and he actually commented that the game looks quite easy.. I'm not going to tell him otherwise right now..as I am sure one day.. he will want to try it!
subbed! went into low sec for the first time today and it was a blast! made some Isk, blew up some serpentis and did not lose a ship. Thanks, Reload for showing that low sec isn't as scary as people make it out to be :)
I must have given this guy at least a few dozens of views just from coming here to get this fitting and the instructions. Thanks for the hard work, this really helped me get started.
I tried out the lowsec ratting with pretty much the same fit as yours today, I didn't fit the energy collision accelarator because I found it too expensive. My overall impression is very good. I was able to salvage a sansha tag worth about 5-7 millions and a faction warp distruptor for about 100 mills. As for the losses: I got blown up once in a system with one other pilot. So thank you for your useful guide!
i am new to eve online, 9 months. i would personally would like to thank you for giving us a specific guide to a specific problem :). Such a big help wish you all the best!

the impel youcan try to kill it but nowmt with the frigate, you will need high dps like a catalyst gank fit for highsec, it drops really nice stuff if you're lucky, and you need the impel to collect al the loot from the miners before attacking it, the tactic is to quickly burst it and then warp out before the defense fleet warps to you. Nice vid !
Hey great video. Got me to make an Amarr alpha clone. I don't often go to low sec (Think of me as carebear who doesn't want to scratch up the ships paint :D) so decided to do a little experiment. I tried to see how early an alpha could bring down rat battleship and managed to get a Sansha Lord worth 0.5M bounty on second day of training :) Here's the fit : { Executioner; 1x Small "Accomodation" vestment reconstituter I; 1x 1MN Y-S8 Compact Afterburner; 2x Extruded Compact Heat Sink; 3x Small focused Afocal Pulse Maser I; 3x Gamma S crystals; 1x Small Compact Pb-Acid Cap battery} The entire fit comes at 68.4 DPS with my current skills. Over-all fit price = ~535K including ship The fight itself was a good fun :) Battleship took a while to wither down the tank but even at this early stage there was no problem at all with popping cruisers and battlecruisers.
I know its been three years since this was made but I still wanted to say thank you and say It is still a viable build. I was tired of mining and ratting in high sec was not paying anything. Made this build and made enough ISK to cover the ship before I finished all the belts in the system I was hunting in. Once again thank you.
Cheers, been trying it tonight with a catalyst, 10th belt had close soldier tag worth 24 mill drop, then 18th belt had a transport and truckers dropping 6 million in minerals and a 360 million special named mod lol
Good info. Just started low sec ratting, however it's worth pointing out that if anyone sees your an alpha they'll hunt you like no other. Seriously I had a 0,0 standing 0 bounty guy chasing me through 3 systems the other day. Also the "player count in the last 30 mins" option on the map is often wrong. I often jump into "empty" systems with 5-10 people in it. I also use the appropriate racial jammers they nearly halve the incoming damage for little fitting resource. Also as an alpha always loot cruisers and above (unless someone is hunting you). They often drop 3 mil and above which is a lot for us poor guys.
It's impossible to say if anyone's an alpha, but you can check employment history to see how old the character is and infer if they're likely an alpha clone. The chases for multiple systems are quite typical, nobody wants content to escape :D. The map isn't 100% accurate for sure and using jammers is a good idea. Solid ECM will definitely help out!
Well I'm on the zkillboard so they can see that I use tech 1 modules on a tech 1 ship, with the clone age and employment history it's a dead giveaway. That's also why I'd rather use ECM than the warp disruptor in your build. Realistically your not going to fight and win against anyone that is actively hunting you but you have a chance to get away if you get lucky and the jam ticks in time.
A Tormentor might be a better choice. It has the same number of turrets, the same turret bonuses, but can launch 2 drones which should give a decent increase in dps. Plus it's not wasting an empty high slot with only 3, it trades it for a 4th low instead so you can fit a warp core stab. You do give up a little bit of velocity, but not too bad.
Great video! make more! with destroyers mb different race. and as option - in cruiser. Actually if u can add isk\hour it will be great. Because every alpha want a plex =)
I would love to add the ISK/hour (I'm a bit of a stats buff myself), but it's very tough to guesstimate it for such an activity. Sometimes you'll get a battleship spawn every system you go to, sometimes it's a drought. Then it depends on if you're risking ratting while there's neutrals in local. Too many variables, lol. I will be creating 3 more alpha clones to make more vids for each race, but that'll take some time to train them. I like frigates because they're fast and have a better chance of escaping a gate camp and can orbit a battleship pretty fast. Destroyers/Cruisers are much slower so they'll end up taking wayyy more damage that may be too much for an alpha clone to handle. But i'll give it a shot when my alpha skills allow :D
This is actually just a little easier in a Punisher. In my fit I can do 126.6 dps, repair armor at 16.3 hp/s, fly at 449.4 m/s (1022.9 m/s with the afterburner on), AND with my alpha character the ship is cap stable so I can do damage all. day. long. Each ship that engages you while you are fighting the battleship first is applying damage that ultimately will shorten your engagement. One strategy that is effective (especially with reduced capacitor) is to tightly orbit the most damaging ship in the group, such as a battleship, then target and shoot the smaller ships until only the battleship remains. If before tackling the battleship you need to rest a moment while your capacitor recharges you can do so without worry.
God tear against blood raiders but Sansha's Nation spread my cheeks, thankyou for sharing this build I am almost half way comfortable in low sec now X3
As an update: The fit works when I remove the middle rig. Not quite sure why i can't fit it, could be a skill somewhere. But sidenote: I managed to get a Barghest BPC off of a belt rat after alerting a local in system that I couldn't kill it and that he should. He came in a battleship and destroyed it while i went up and stole the loot :). Contracted the BPC to my main and now in the process of building it. Win all around
If you're purely isk making i would just stick to high sec incursions at 30 mil per 20 mins, a lot better than making a mil in 10 minutes. That being said if you're looking for PVP you'll have a blast in low sec, any isk you make from that is just a nice bonus.
Battleships generally need around 200dps . Its very easy to get to this on an alpha clone in a destroyer. The ships still cannot track you in an ab dessie. We hand them out to newbros for free to getting them ratting in null in their first couple of days
This is my very old video on it th-cam.com/video/L2fAlmYKbHM/w-d-xo.html but mechanics are still the same. How to behave? Make sure you have enough tank on your ship and warp out before they strike. :)
20 min is def pushing the average youtube user's attention span :) shorter would prob benefit your views on each vid but then again dont leave out info!
Yeah I always try to be as brief as possible, pushing it under 7-10 minutes. New TH-cam algorithms now favour longer videos and I'm trying a new format where I just go with the flow not knowing what will happen by the end of the video. Trying different things :D
I personnally like the longer videos as I learn more at a slower more "easily digestable" pace. Keep up the great work I'm a subscriber now and am recommending you to all my EVE friends
Malroth00Returns I love weapon disruption, especially against sniper ships. nothing quite like turning something like a rail fit naga into something with less range than a destroyer. (full bonus arbitrator can knock ~90% tracking range or speed.
Could be skills, but I also noticed that I couldn't really break through Sansha battleship tank. I recommend going against low bounty Blood Raiders for this fit. (also could be changes to dps affecting this fit)
i tried this and was ganked in the 1st low sec i entered right at the gate lasted about 20 seconds :) I done my homework before entering, checked Dotmaps only 2 ships lost in 24 hrs so i thought not too bad. As soon as i was targeted tried to overheat my afterburner to go back through the gate and one of them bumped me. Just lost my ship which was fine will try again later.
Yeah you definitely have to try again. Sometimes you can do all of your homework and still get wrecked. Good thing these ships are very cheap. A lot depends on the time of the day as well. I typically have good luck with Amarr low sec in US evening time zone.
Francois and Erik said it right. Go for blasters. You need to be close to the target, orbit as fast as you can, and melt face. Blasters are the way to go.
Hi, I just wanted to thank you! Your fit has served me very well: I just recently upgraded to 'Small Focused Modulated Pulse Energy Beam ' with 'Imperial Navy Multifrequency S', so I get 126 dps - not bad for an 1,6m SP alpha clone. I use a Capacitor booster - am I being paranoid, or is cap stuff really important for Amarr pilots?
Thank you for watching! Glad to be of help! Capacitor is very important to Amarr as lasers are very cap-hungry. To balance that, usually Amarr ships have more capacitor than other factions' ships. I personally don't use a capacitor booster, especially on a frigate. It's better to learn how to manage capacitor, like pulsing the afterburner and armor rep instead of keeping them an at all times. Most ships you will fly will not be cap-stable. But that's my playstyle, if you find that you really need a cap booster to survive, stick with it. Training capacitor-related skills will also help :)
I did a big big big fail I buy the fuc**** slicer so i cant do that and after a enemy just one shot and i lose 15 million$ for some shit but your vidéo is great and i will follow your instruction now ;P
+Brian Garrison I haven't tried a tormentor with an alpha clone yet, but it may work just as well if not better than the executioner. Drones won't add too much dps, but something is better than nothing. The only thing you have to check is tormentor's speed. Have to make sure it's fast enough to fly under the turret tracking speed.
Hi Reload ,i just subbed i find ur channel awesome,im new to Eve and i just rejoined now with the alpha clones...So i was alpha before couple of days until a guy helped me and now became Omega for 30 days..So here goes the question..My amar toon is like 2 days old..I still training skills but i got the parts to fit my executioner like u say in the video but i have capacitor problems..Not stable at all :( .. How i can fix this? Do i need to train a certain skill ? Or i need another module to put in ? :/ Also please someone tell me which skills i should train for my Amar toon now that i am omega cuz i have 29 days so im trying to get my skills up to 5 lvl while i can. Another quesiton is that if my toon becames alpha clone again will i be abel to use tier modules? or cloacking for example ? P.s: Any good pvp fit for executioner? Does the executioner is a brawling frigate ? And in terms of pvp should i play it like this ?Ty vm !
Personally, I'd still stick with the armor rep because most of the time, the speed is good and helps you avoid damage. It's the few times where you're changing directions or the battleship actually manages to land a hit that you lose a lot of tank and need to repair so that next hit won't be the last. You can definitely kill mining barges with this, provided you're not going for a suicide gank. Procurers will be tough if properly fitted.
When using a energy Nosafertu than you can drain the battleship cap so it can not repair any more? Will going to try this have two executioner catching dust;)
Get energy to my own ship with nos but do not think npc cap can be drained. It was fun to do but are now omega and run mission with bs. Skilltraining prevents a bit of doing diffrent things at the moment but when i need to go trough low sec i use a ship everbody can fly wich is the Sunesis. With tech 2 align rigs(2nozzles,1engin housing), two tech 2 inert stabs and two warp stabs it is a instawarp (1.99 sec) destroyer with pretty good cargo hold. Practicaly gatecamp proof;)
I have a similar fit for my executioner but I still don't stand a chance against any of the lnullsec pirates, even If they are solo. Am I missing something?
You may be... I was using an alpha clone for this video. Make sure you match the fit as much as you can and orbit the battleships at a very close orbit. I would also recommend attacking Blood Raiders instead of Sanshas. It's possible that NPC ships were buffed since I made this video. You can also try attacking cruisers and battlecruisers to see how well you do.
I would say exploration will give you the best ISK/hr if you're flying solo. Fun is a relative term, I have lots of fun running exploration sites in null and wormholes. Joining a fleet for any PvE or PvP activities is lots of fun as well. Ninja salvaging and looting is tons of fun if you're up for upsetting salty mission runners :D
Been doing explo for the last week. Thing is it's really a hit or miss. I think I safespot bookmarked about 30 low population null sec systems in a loop from Jita. I had only 2 relic sites that netted over 20 mil and I'm not really confident going into more profitable regions. Relic sites already seem to get cleared pretty fast in low population space leaving you with crappy data sites or worse, the cherry picked ones.
lol yeah that does happen, wormhole space has been treating me very nicely in my corporation, I think that would be the biggest tip to a new comer to the this game. Make friends and shoot stuff together!
Why go with the compact scrambler and webifier for lower CPU usage when you can take advantage of the little CPU you have left over to use the enduring versions which will eat up less capacitor? (edit: I'm new by the way)
For sure! I'm creating more alpha clones to try this tactic with each race. Might take some time to train the skills, but will make videos as alpha clones become available :D
Incursus if youre going for the gun skills, if you got the drone skils abit up (drones 5 is quite essential) then you can go for the dronefrigate or an algos
Drone frigate would be the 'Tristan'. I did it with the Incursus with the fitting below. There where 2 frigates and 1 battleship with 500.000 ISK bounty in the belt. I killed the frigates first, then orbit the battleship at 500 m. Took about 2-3 Minutes till it went boom. Note that the Webifier can be swapped out with a Warp Scrambler. Or just take out the Cap Battery. I didn't need to use my Armor-Rep actually.

Why is it you use the Accommodation reconstructor instead of a repair module which uses paste? Is it because of a similar reason you use lasers with no ammo? Because you have to chip away for a long time?
The rep module that uses paste repairs less HPs. Paste is good to use if you overheat your modules (paste repairs heat damage). For PVE I rarely overheat.
Try finding Blood Raider battleships. I had problems with Sansha battleships, they would rep faster than I could apply DPS with my current skills. If battleships are a problem, downgrade to battlecruisers. They don't pay out as much, but it's easier to find them + they melt really fast with this fit.
Reload haha that might do it. Whatever the reason, great video. It was very nicely made! Very good quality content and production :) I would also have to second the idea of a Minmatar or other race frigate guides for low sec ratting. Thanks!
You need to start doing a clap sync or something to get your voice and video syncd properly. Like, click something and clap at the same time, that way you can layer your audio over the movement perfectly, and your mouth matches your words lol
Yep, I do that. Sometimes there's an issue with sound processing that I still haven't been able to isolate. It may have something to do with sampling rates and how the software processes .wav files. The worst part is that it comes and goes, so it's tough to pin down. But I'm working on it :)
You're probably already used to your current setup and everything, but I've used Bandicam and it makes it super easy to sync audio, I record video and audio separate, and take the audio into Audacity to edit it and attach it to the video and sync it in either windows movie maker, or preferably Sony Vegas.
Yep, I have a similar setup. The issue comes from recording facecam with a separate camera. Could also be audio sampling 48khz vs 44.1khz and how processing software compiles the data (I used DaVinci Resolve). Audacity is a great program!
So I replicated the build (minus the small aux thrusters cause i havent found any in the market near me yet). My dps is only sitting at around 84.5. I'm assuming this is due to me needing to further train up my associated skills with the weapon type?
Best places to go are trade hubs. Every region has one, but 4 stand out from the rest. These are located in systems: Jita, Amarr, Dodixie, Hek - one for each of the factions. If it's an expensive item, best thing is to haul it to one of the closest trade hubs. If it's a cheap item, might as well reprocess it into minerals and sell those. Minerals are in demand everywhere.
by using this i have only killed 3 battle cruisers so far cause i havent found any battleships but 2 of the battlecruisers dropped an item worth 1.7M each
So strange thing, I have more skills than you have and I still can't get this fit to work. I'm over by 3.8% on the energy grid. Not sure what's happeneing
My confidence level going into low sec has been greatly increased thanks to this video. Thank you.
+Dan Downing you're very welcome! Low sec is pretty awesome. You get to die to a few gate camps, but mostly you can get some nice isk
Reload A friend of mine and i are more or less by ourselves trying to take on the world. We mine, we run missions, we hunt rats, and we need a corp of more than 2 people. Any suggestions?
+Dan Downing I can only suggest big alliances like Brave and Pandemic Horde. I've been playing solo or with a very small group of people in the past, so don't know of any good medium sized corps. Most importantly, don't stay in one corp too long if their playstyle doesn't match yours.
This was explained very well, and I do love the longer video format Reload!
I tried to do something similar to this when I started the game as my frigate vs multiple frigates in high sec resulted in many losses. I didn't believe I could actually do this until I tried it.
Also.. my eight year old son watched this with me, and he actually commented that the game looks quite easy..
I'm not going to tell him otherwise right now..as I am sure one day.. he will want to try it!
subbed! went into low sec for the first time today and it was a blast! made some Isk, blew up some serpentis and did not lose a ship. Thanks, Reload for showing that low sec isn't as scary as people make it out to be :)
That's awesome to hear!! Enjoy low sec and fly safe o7
I must have given this guy at least a few dozens of views just from coming here to get this fitting and the instructions. Thanks for the hard work, this really helped me get started.
I'm glad this helped you out! o7
Woah... That explosion was amazing! I dont think ive ever actually watched somthing explode upclose in eve lol!
Explosions look way cool now
I tried out the lowsec ratting with pretty much the same fit as yours today, I didn't fit the energy collision accelarator because I found it too expensive. My overall impression is very good. I was able to salvage a sansha tag worth about 5-7 millions and a faction warp distruptor for about 100 mills. As for the losses: I got blown up once in a system with one other pilot. So thank you for your useful guide!
You're very welcome!! Enjoy! o7
I started doing that. moved from high sec to low sec. made money. thank YOU so much ;)

one of the best eve video for alpha clones ...... hope you could make some more videos like this
Caldari/Minmatar alpha clones are all trained and ready for videos now :D
Hey great video. Got me to make an Amarr alpha clone. I don't often go to low sec (Think of me as carebear who doesn't want to scratch up the ships paint :D) so decided to do a little experiment.

Cheers, been trying it tonight with a catalyst, 10th belt had close soldier tag worth 24 mill drop, then 18th belt had a transport and truckers dropping 6 million in minerals and a 360 million special named mod lol
Largely what this video showed me is that ratting can be fun, exciting, and profitable.
Good info. Just started low sec ratting, however it's worth pointing out that if anyone sees your an alpha they'll hunt you like no other. Seriously I had a 0,0 standing 0 bounty guy chasing me through 3 systems the other day. Also the "player count in the last 30 mins" option on the map is often wrong.

Well I'm on the zkillboard so they can see that I use tech 1 modules on a tech 1 ship, with the clone age and employment history it's a dead giveaway.
That's also why I'd rather use ECM than the warp disruptor in your build. Realistically your not going to fight and win against anyone that is actively hunting you but you have a chance to get away if you get lucky and the jam ticks in time.
great video, i flew caldari when i last played
newbie here =) ... well done ... this is good demonstration of ratting in low sec, just what i was looking for ...
Good video, very informative, I'd like to see one on caldari or gallente
+Nitronius Gaming thank you, gallente video is coming up soon! Caldari to follow
great video man, keep it up.
Thank you!
A Tormentor might be a better choice. It has the same number of turrets, the same turret bonuses, but can launch 2 drones which should give a decent increase in dps. Plus it's not wasting an empty high slot with only 3, it trades it for a 4th low instead so you can fit a warp core stab. You do give up a little bit of velocity, but not too bad.

Would love a caladri version - really interesting
This is actually just a little easier in a Punisher. In my fit I can do 126.6 dps, repair armor at 16.3 hp/s, fly at 449.4 m/s (1022.9 m/s with the afterburner on), AND with my alpha character the ship is cap stable so I can do damage all. day. long.

Nice video mate, but I got super dizzy. Following a frig going round and round is to much :)
As an update:
The fit works when I remove the middle rig. Not quite sure why i can't fit it, could be a skill somewhere. But sidenote: I managed to get a Barghest BPC off of a belt rat after alerting a local in system that I couldn't kill it and that he should. He came in a battleship and destroyed it while i went up and stole the loot :). Contracted the BPC to my main and now in the process of building it. Win all around
Thanks for video.
salvager 1 can also be used on the wrecks in alpha clone states very handy for extra isk
Hey, i was trying to find your further videos about overview settings but unable to find one. Did you manage to create one by any chance?
Hi did you do a vid on setting up the overview tabs in the end? thanks (- New player and i'm not quite sure how )
Nice to see You !
+Andrzej Borowski likewise! Thank you for watching o7
If you're purely isk making i would just stick to high sec incursions at 30 mil per 20 mins, a lot better than making a mil in 10 minutes. That being said if you're looking for PVP you'll have a blast in low sec, any isk you make from that is just a nice bonus.
Battleships generally need around 200dps . Its very easy to get to this on an alpha clone in a destroyer. The ships still cannot track you in an ab dessie. We hand them out to newbros for free to getting them ratting in null in their first couple of days
Still have yet to find anything that gives you more isk than project discovery
Did you made the video for configuring Overview and d-scan
That is actually impressive :)
Thank you! So far, Blood Raiders are the easiest in my experience.
So how long did it actually take to get that Battleship down?
Yeah guristas you would just likely stay jammed the entire time.
excelent and profesional videos you do. thanks for it
Thank you for watching!
Amazing video!
Thank you!
nice vid !!!
Thank you for watching!
Is there or can you make a video there some gankers are coming and how I should behave in this situation?
Still love your videos!
This is my very old video on it th-cam.com/video/L2fAlmYKbHM/w-d-xo.html but mechanics are still the same. How to behave? Make sure you have enough tank on your ship and warp out before they strike. :)
feed back on adding your face: i think having it always on but smaller and in one of the corners would be better
+nbaumg thank you for the feedback!! How do you like the length of the video? Usually I make them much shorter and more concise
20 min is def pushing the average youtube user's attention span :) shorter would prob benefit your views on each vid but then again dont leave out info!
Yeah I always try to be as brief as possible, pushing it under 7-10 minutes. New TH-cam algorithms now favour longer videos and I'm trying a new format where I just go with the flow not knowing what will happen by the end of the video. Trying different things :D
I personnally like the longer videos as I learn more at a slower more "easily digestable" pace. Keep up the great work I'm a subscriber now and am recommending you to all my EVE friends
what i noticed is when you blend your face in the audio of your voice isnt syncronized with your mouth, you should check that as well
oh so npc pirates dont use webs? or does it vary for faction/region/ship type?
I myself like the Crucifier, those bonused Weapon disrupters really hurt a gunship's ability to harm you.
Crucifier is a pretty cool ship!
Malroth00Returns I love weapon disruption, especially against sniper ships. nothing quite like turning something like a rail fit naga into something with less range than a destroyer.
(full bonus arbitrator can knock ~90% tracking range or speed.
"Lasers eat up a much of energy" - well .... me sitting on a Tachyon Beam II Abaddon ^^ #mood
Hows the abby i hear alot of people disregard it
I tried this and could not deal enough damage to outdo the battleship's repair rate. Must've come down to not having all the right skills.
Could be skills, but I also noticed that I couldn't really break through Sansha battleship tank. I recommend going against low bounty Blood Raiders for this fit. (also could be changes to dps affecting this fit)
i tried this and was ganked in the 1st low sec i entered right at the gate lasted about 20 seconds :) I done my homework before entering, checked Dotmaps only 2 ships lost in 24 hrs so i thought not too bad. As soon as i was targeted tried to overheat my afterburner to go back through the gate and one of them bumped me. Just lost my ship which was fine will try again later.
Yeah you definitely have to try again. Sometimes you can do all of your homework and still get wrecked. Good thing these ships are very cheap. A lot depends on the time of the day as well. I typically have good luck with Amarr low sec in US evening time zone.
Rad video my guy.
Thank you for watching!
If this was Caldari and using hybrid would you use Blasters or Railguns?
Grodd blasters for close range and huge deeps
Grodd the whole point is to orbit as tight as possible, so using the highest damage, lowest range guns is your best bet.
Francois and Erik said it right. Go for blasters. You need to be close to the target, orbit as fast as you can, and melt face. Blasters are the way to go.
what kind of blasters?
Blasty ones.
Hi, I just wanted to thank you!
Your fit has served me very well:
I just recently upgraded to 'Small Focused Modulated Pulse Energy Beam ' with 'Imperial Navy Multifrequency S', so I get 126 dps - not bad for an 1,6m SP alpha clone.
I use a Capacitor booster - am I being paranoid, or is cap stuff really important for Amarr pilots?
Thank you for watching! Glad to be of help! Capacitor is very important to Amarr as lasers are very cap-hungry. To balance that, usually Amarr ships have more capacitor than other factions' ships. I personally don't use a capacitor booster, especially on a frigate.
It's better to learn how to manage capacitor, like pulsing the afterburner and armor rep instead of keeping them an at all times. Most ships you will fly will not be cap-stable. But that's my playstyle, if you find that you really need a cap booster to survive, stick with it. Training capacitor-related skills will also help :)
I did a big big big fail
I buy the fuc**** slicer so i cant do that and after a enemy just one shot and i lose 15 million$ for some shit but your vidéo is great and i will follow your instruction now ;P
Nice video! Do you have any recommendations for a Galente ratting ship for alphas?
+Dj Bucci thank you! I don't know for an Alpha clone yet, Atron or Incursus might work well. I'd have to test it out though
Reload I think the face cam works! Like it!
Thank you for your feedback Matt! This year I'll be doing a lot of random things to see what works or doesn't work. o7
Ah well i look forwards to the changes! o/ as always ever need someone to wormhole/pve with just give me a shout! o7
gallente frigate, i 2nd what "August Sandbo" said
You're in luck! (that's my next low sec video :) )
your voice is so majestic! (no homo) I still don't see how you voice fits your appearance (in respect)
Tried this, was cloakie AB Hawk'd two or three systems into Low, never stood a chance. GG no re
Watch local and d-scan. Only bombers can instantly target after decloaking, if you're paying attemtion, you can get away in time.
Do a guide for Minmatar alpha clones please!
For sure!! Will be creating an alpha clone today/tomorrow for minmatar and training it up. Low Sec ratting FTW!
Amarr fight - its a horror for epileptic... Believe me, i know)))
i know this video is a bit old, but have you tried this with the torment(spelling?) and drones to see if they up your dps significantly?
+Brian Garrison I haven't tried a tormentor with an alpha clone yet, but it may work just as well if not better than the executioner. Drones won't add too much dps, but something is better than nothing. The only thing you have to check is tormentor's speed. Have to make sure it's fast enough to fly under the turret tracking speed.
Curious how big a boost the tier 2 crystals and better lasers would give. Like 2x? 10x? 0.2x?
Hi Reload ,i just subbed i find ur channel awesome,im new to Eve and i just rejoined now with the alpha clones...So i was alpha before couple of days until a guy helped me and now became Omega for 30 days..So here goes the question..My amar toon is like 2 days old..I still training skills but i got the parts to fit my executioner like u say in the video but i have capacitor problems..Not stable at all :( .. How i can fix this? Do i need to train a certain skill ? Or i need another module to put in ? :/ Also please someone tell me which skills i should train for my Amar toon now that i am omega cuz i have 29 days so im trying to get my skills up to 5 lvl while i can. Another quesiton is that if my toon becames alpha clone again will i be abel to use tier modules? or cloacking for example ?
P.s: Any good pvp fit for executioner? Does the executioner is a brawling frigate ? And in terms of pvp should i play it like this ?Ty vm !
What do you think about fitting an Overdrive injector instead of the armor repairer for the extra Speed? And could you kill Mining barges with this?
Personally, I'd still stick with the armor rep because most of the time, the speed is good and helps you avoid damage. It's the few times where you're changing directions or the battleship actually manages to land a hit that you lose a lot of tank and need to repair so that next hit won't be the last.
You can definitely kill mining barges with this, provided you're not going for a suicide gank. Procurers will be tough if properly fitted.
When using a energy Nosafertu than you can drain the battleship cap so it can not repair any more?
Will going to try this have two executioner catching dust;)
I'm really not sure if NOS has any effect on NPCs. Give it a try though, let me know how it works out!
Get energy to my own ship with nos but do not think npc cap can be drained.
It was fun to do but are now omega and run mission with bs.
Skilltraining prevents a bit of doing diffrent things at the moment but when i need to go trough low sec i use a ship everbody can fly wich is the Sunesis.
With tech 2 align rigs(2nozzles,1engin housing), two tech 2 inert stabs and two warp stabs it is a instawarp (1.99 sec) destroyer with pretty good cargo hold. Practicaly gatecamp proof;)
Also what I have noticed about Executioners is that they are easy Gank toys
What are the best Frigate for Ratting Battleship? I see on internet ppls say Rifter and Merlin but i dont know if they work for Ratting.
Is there a way to fit a neutralizer module to this fit? It'd definitely help taking down the bigger rats that out rep the damage
I have a similar fit for my executioner but I still don't stand a chance against any of the lnullsec pirates, even If they are solo. Am I missing something?
You may be... I was using an alpha clone for this video. Make sure you match the fit as much as you can and orbit the battleships at a very close orbit. I would also recommend attacking Blood Raiders instead of Sanshas. It's possible that NPC ships were buffed since I made this video. You can also try attacking cruisers and battlecruisers to see how well you do.
Yeah, I know in my experience I've needed 120+ dps to crack battlecruisers in .4 sec, so they probably buffed them a bit.
Yet to see any videos on the new alpha system
What are some good ways for Alpha Clones to make great ISK/hr and make the life of an Alpha more fun! Thanks man!
I would say exploration will give you the best ISK/hr if you're flying solo. Fun is a relative term, I have lots of fun running exploration sites in null and wormholes. Joining a fleet for any PvE or PvP activities is lots of fun as well. Ninja salvaging and looting is tons of fun if you're up for upsetting salty mission runners :D
Been doing explo for the last week. Thing is it's really a hit or miss. I think I safespot bookmarked about 30 low population null sec systems in a loop from Jita. I had only 2 relic sites that netted over 20 mil and I'm not really confident going into more profitable regions. Relic sites already seem to get cleared pretty fast in low population space leaving you with crappy data sites or worse, the cherry picked ones.
lol yeah that does happen, wormhole space has been treating me very nicely in my corporation, I think that would be the biggest tip to a new comer to the this game. Make friends and shoot stuff together!
could i do this same strat in a rifter and speed tank with autocannons
Why go with the compact scrambler and webifier for lower CPU usage when you can take advantage of the little CPU you have left over to use the enduring versions which will eat up less capacitor? (edit: I'm new by the way)
I think for these mods it was a matter of availability and cost.
can u do one with an gallente frigate?
For sure! I'm creating more alpha clones to try this tactic with each race. Might take some time to train the skills, but will make videos as alpha clones become available :D
Reload awesome ;)
Which Gallente frigate + fit would you recommend for starters?
Incursus if youre going for the gun skills, if you got the drone skils abit up (drones 5 is quite essential) then you can go for the dronefrigate or an algos
Drone frigate would be the 'Tristan'.
I did it with the Incursus with the fitting below. There where 2 frigates and 1 battleship with 500.000 ISK bounty in the belt. I killed the frigates first, then orbit the battleship at 500 m. Took about 2-3 Minutes till it went boom.
Note that the Webifier can be swapped out with a Warp Scrambler. Or just take out the Cap Battery.
I didn't need to use my Armor-Rep actually.

Hi do have any videos on Alfa clone amarr destroyers?
What was the cargo ship at the end? And why not engage it?
Those were the NPC mining ops. If you attack them, they bring back-up and you need a solid fleet to defend yourself.
Why is it you use the Accommodation reconstructor instead of a repair module which uses paste? Is it because of a similar reason you use lasers with no ammo? Because you have to chip away for a long time?
The rep module that uses paste repairs less HPs. Paste is good to use if you overheat your modules (paste repairs heat damage). For PVE I rarely overheat.
I just made 93m from a single asteroid belt, it took me like 5 minutes to kill a destroyer with 3 other frigates.
93m in a lowsec belt? How long were you there for, tf?
When I come against battleships i can not down them. They repair faster than my Damage. I have the same training as you. Am I missing something?
Try finding Blood Raider battleships. I had problems with Sansha battleships, they would rep faster than I could apply DPS with my current skills. If battleships are a problem, downgrade to battlecruisers. They don't pay out as much, but it's easier to find them + they melt really fast with this fit.
How do you get your EvE to look so good? It looks better on video then mine does in person :/ And I am running everything on the highest settings.
+RustyWater6 gtx 980ti :) but should be the same as you i think
Reload haha that might do it. Whatever the reason, great video. It was very nicely made! Very good quality content and production :) I would also have to second the idea of a Minmatar or other race frigate guides for low sec ratting. Thanks!
You need to start doing a clap sync or something to get your voice and video syncd properly. Like, click something and clap at the same time, that way you can layer your audio over the movement perfectly, and your mouth matches your words lol
Yep, I do that. Sometimes there's an issue with sound processing that I still haven't been able to isolate. It may have something to do with sampling rates and how the software processes .wav files. The worst part is that it comes and goes, so it's tough to pin down. But I'm working on it :)
You're probably already used to your current setup and everything, but I've used Bandicam and it makes it super easy to sync audio, I record video and audio separate, and take the audio into Audacity to edit it and attach it to the video and sync it in either windows movie maker, or preferably Sony Vegas.
Yep, I have a similar setup. The issue comes from recording facecam with a separate camera. Could also be audio sampling 48khz vs 44.1khz and how processing software compiles the data (I used DaVinci Resolve). Audacity is a great program!
put like before start watching video ;)
Wayback machine, remember the days of belt ratting.
So I replicated the build (minus the small aux thrusters cause i havent found any in the market near me yet). My dps is only sitting at around 84.5. I'm assuming this is due to me needing to further train up my associated skills with the weapon type?
Yep, train up your skills and your DPS will get better.
Reload since posting that, this build has become my go-to ratting build for fun :D
Thanks for taking the time to do these!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching o7

Hi id like to ask, i have this fit on my executioner but my dps is only at 72 and not 102? was it nerfed in the past 2 years?
you need to level skills
@@FLUFFYVENOM skills are also the same
executioner damage is meh, I want to try punisher with 200 dps or destroyer with 300 dps
I am nooby, so excuse my question...
But how do you actually sell goods? I have quite some loot amassed from my missions, so I am wondering.
Best places to go are trade hubs. Every region has one, but 4 stand out from the rest. These are located in systems: Jita, Amarr, Dodixie, Hek - one for each of the factions. If it's an expensive item, best thing is to haul it to one of the closest trade hubs. If it's a cheap item, might as well reprocess it into minerals and sell those. Minerals are in demand everywhere.
Reload Okay, thanks for the info. A great video by the way!
Hello there. Is this vid still valid as of november 2021 ?
Caldari and Minmatar someday?
after gaining enough ISK is it worth getting the slicer and doing this still or no?
by using this i have only killed 3 battle cruisers so far cause i havent found any battleships but 2 of the battlecruisers dropped an item worth 1.7M each
Any good amarr cruise for low sec ratting?
3:12 Especially for a frigate? I don't know...
what is benefit of afterburner over microwarp
Less power/cpu need, less capacitor use and won't be affected by warp scrambler
Thanks buddy I have use this video to farm isk I get killed sometimes by ganker but I am learning more and more how to avoid with local and d-scan
So strange thing, I have more skills than you have and I still can't get this fit to work. I'm over by 3.8% on the energy grid. Not sure what's happeneing
If I’m not Amar will this fit still work for me?
This was working well until I attacked a lone Blood Soldier Transport in an asteroid belt. If you see one stay well away.
Omg i miss the game:(
Come back! We miss you too
Reload im all ready back in province😉
