Leaving Jita

Friday, August 15th, 2008

It would be easier to leave Jita if it were possible to enter the system in the first place. Having found some asteroids in a deadspace mission pocket I thought I'd take the opportunity to mine some ore with less chance of being

Don't be Kruul

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

If you're Kruul, it's likely I'm going to blow up your ship Kruul got himself a back-up clone alive and kicking after our last encounter and was up to his old tricks. He had again kidnapped some damsel and was holding her at his pleasure den for his own amusement. ...

Deadspace reconnaissance

Monday, August 11th, 2008

My agent sends me on an important mission, asking me to recon some deadspace complexes to see if they are safe for transit for a convoy, or if pirates or mercenaries would hinder operations. With him offering a huge 476,000 ISK mission reward I throw myself out of dock barely ...

PvB: player versus bully

Sunday, August 10th, 2008

I knew EVE Online was a player vs. player (PvP) game when I started, and I knew that I probably wouldn't like the PvP aspects of the game if they were anything like my previous unfettered PvP experiences. Specifically, experiences where the only PvP people engage in are the ...

Cruising to mine

Friday, August 8th, 2008

I had read somewhere previously about finding ores rarer than normally found in a system existing in deadspace whilst on missions, and had found some omber of my own recently. In that instance, I took my Caracal home to Jita, dusted off my mining Bantam frigate and went back ...

The explosion-damping module is fitted, the heavy launcher is swapped out for a fourth assault launcher, all launchers are fully loaded with Bloodclaw missiles for kinetic damage; I'm ready to end the Minmatar threat I was made aware of in the level two mission Technological Secrets. The Minmatar ships are converging ...

Technological Secrets

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

My agent in EVE Online gives me an important level two mission. Codenamed Technological Secrets I am to find and capture a rebel captain, which means fighting off a few waves of his mercenaries first. I am going to encounter Minmatar ships again, so I keep the Ladar ...

Level two combat missions continue

Friday, August 1st, 2008

After my introduction to level two missions in EVE Online I contact my agent to pick up another couple of missions, now that he trusts me enough to offer me the decent jobs. Before I take any new assignments I hit the market and look at different launchers, after ...

Beginning level two missions

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

Penny Ibramovic checked out of space station Haatamo to jump to strange new systems, to seek out new agents and new clusters of rats to kill, to boldly go where everyone else has been some years before me. My choice of agents offering me level two missions first took ...

Mission progression

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Penny Abramovic's Salvaging Enterprise is continuing quite nicely. The recent recovery of two alloyed tritanium bars and three melted capacitor consoles amongst all the wrecks, which just happened to be floating in space near my Caracal with the smoking launchers, made over two million ISK alone, and that was ...
