So far my PVP experience has been load into a 0.4 system and get killed by gate campers before you even got a chance to load in because the server has that annoying lag delay alot of the time. Also server crashing and then logging back in when it's up to find yourself dead, then you ask CCP to give you your stuff back as it's their fault but they say no. Going for a piss for 30 seconds to come back to your pod in a station and I dunno mainly revolving around gate campers and lots of server lag in low sec space.

Anyways i'm just wondering if theres a PVP guide because i'm sick of dying lol.

 

+ I'm flying a carrier atm.

You won't learn PVP through a guide.

- Join a pvp oriented corp and learn by experience. Still the best teacher. A few pvp corps have pvp academies, from where they recruit the more promising candidates. And then there is always Eve University, a corp dedicated to teaching.
- You could try out alone, but to (successfully) pvp solo in EVE requires even more experience.
- DON'T use your carrier for your first tastes of pvp. (Just to make that sure. Use small, inexpensive ships for starters.

load what?

When you get gate camped, it's :
- either before the jump, and at that time everything is loaded.
- either after the jump. But then you are cloaked for some time, and it gives you the time to load the system (except in Jita).

I don't understand what you're talking about oO

Please come to us. We didn't have a carrierkill for quite some time. :)

Anyways, could you please explain how you got into a carrier without knowing how to do basic PvP?
