EVE Online PvP Basics: Opening Engagements

Today I’m going to be showing you some fleet PvP action again - But rather than just doing a flat out video battle report like I have in the past, what I want to do here is start to actively try and share some of the lessons I’ve re-learnt as an FC.
This time we're going to be looking at how to open up engagements in a way that works with your gameplan, using probes, warpins and other techniques!

12:25 Breaking the FC role into Anchor and Shot-caller is a fantastic idea.

[@emPtysp4ce]

Hey I'm in this video, I'm in a Cormorant when you warp back to the Paala gate. It was a salvager Corm so I don't think you bothered to try and kill me, but I did fly through the middle of this fight to try and be a sneaky looting asshole

[@emPtysp4ce]

@Zech Slade Oh, never do that. I'm surprised I didn't get shot, and it's kind of a dick move depending on what you're looting.

[@HedIiner]

Good fights, we were slightly messier on the second engagement vs the Gnosis fleet as I warped back to the Basilisk who came in late. I love these types of even numbers engagements, they really keep you sharp. See you next time.

[@Deveyus]

"Ever-forgiving members of spectre fleet" No joke, people in spectre fleet are so awesomely tolerant!

[@Gl1tchyV00d00]

Would love to hear more about target selection, FC window and overview set up! As a someone who aspires to be an fc this was very informative, thank you!

[@01telemaster]

Hey Jin'taan, can you do a video on the best roles for players to fill in a corporation? For example flying a dictor or fast tackle or even on the community side with helping new players or being an FC. I'd be interested to see what roles are most important to corporations when recruiting players

[@Jintaan]

This is actually a great idea! I’ll see if I can piece something together on this before the end of the month :)

[@Rudy-126]

Great work out there, FC

[@lilhavoc1982]

Having participated in a couple of the fleets you recorded on here (through SF) it's interesting to see it from your perspective. I think what you're doing here is very informative. Thank you for that.

[@MemoryCove]

"The moment you get locked just start heating and praying"

[@Jintaan]

It's the best advice I can give!

[@solitude9875]

@@Jintaan not a bad idea, its dangerous for capsuleers with Thermo II tho

[@taltracyn3198]

Thanks again Jin'taan i find all your fleet videos very informative. Keep them coming !.

[@bobSeigar]

Just got back into the game after 5 years. Your videos have been insanely helpful to get back into nullsec.

[@dorothywatson4679]

This is a great video - really informative!

[@pabloescobarr744]

this is great, thanks for the videos Jin

[@rioterwarhier]

Again i learned a lot... thx Jin'taan.. hope to see you on field some day

[@N0VABomb1]

Aw man, you cut the video right before I got a sabre scram on you. Great fight, thanks for always being willing to brawl in LXQ!

[@ZStein1017]

GF, it's always fun when you guys come into horde space and stand and bang, as a relatively new player your videos finally got me into the game. o7

[@anomoly40]

Because of your interview with Greygal, I'm going on a roam for the first time! Keep up the good content.

[@Jintaan]

Awesome! I'm sure you'll have fun with her and learn a lot of new tricks :D

[@anomoly40]

Hopefully one trick I learn is how to purchase a kill right before attacking and getting Concorded.

[@americancrusader6286]

Great vid man! Your Eve lore vids brought me here and I'm enjoying it a lot Edit: new sub as well lol

[@Apollo729]

Wonder if anyone has said oh shit it's Edita yet. Also glad to hear Provi isn't the only one who splits dps.

[@tdegraaf1990]

Morning robes on, magic happening. Nice video my main man.

[@Jintaan]

The wizard robes of power

[@MrDaishee]

Nice Fleet. Greetz from TEST

[@Jintaan]

If there are any PvP concepts or common decisions you'd like me to explain, please feel free to throw them down here in the comments!

[@nibbix6970]

What EVE time do you fly usually?

[@bobSeigar]

I have a suggestion. It might be a bit harder to explain because fights are fluid. But target selection and target priorities.

[@DrRugerMan]

Fleet composition? Starting from common frig-cruiser-BC and EWAR supports that benfit?

[@stanrussell3878]

Positioning during a fleet fight (sorry it’s a late reply :))

[@solitude9875]

can you make a video specifically for logistic pilots? I want to fly as logi in Brave Newbies and dont know much about flying as one

[@vemorphose1167]

Another good and useful video that will fail to make me good at PvP.

[@seankeen2865]

if your looking to get better at pvp join us in bandit baking club

[@vincentouwehand828]

[@aherma]

I dont remember that fight at 09:50 against you but seems that you didnt manage to kill my Hot Habanero 😜👍

[@Blueshoes317]

SO THAT WAS YOU IN LXQ

[@azza9863]

How would I go about joining brave corp?

[@KarlRosner]

Why is the brave logo on Jin's videos? Is he a member of brave?

[@Jintaan]

Yes, I recently joined them! Being around new players in EVE has a way of re-energising you, I swear, they’re so adorable

[@KarlRosner]

@@Jintaan I learned a lot when I was a member of brave, lots of fights too people always seemed to want to come and pick on the newbies. All my stuff is still in GE-8, maybe I'll jump in an alpha and join you some time haha.

[@Kai-wi9ne]

What did putting combat probes on yourself do?

[@Jintaan]

It allowed me to probe down the hostile fleet on grid, and warp to them, giving me a positional advantage

[@husseinalramini4506]

Hold X + left click to broadcast target imo

[@rioterwarhier]

Any groups looking to recruit for the trigs? I need a corp!

[@solitude9875]

Do we have any logi? Im not sure, but broadcast anyways Also him: getting armor reps fron logi

[@ninjai5527]

do u normally play eve in only a bath robe?

[@Drrolfski]

Seems to me you guys were also trading better the last time because you were less initially outnumbered

[@solitude9875]

Lol the Rodiva should have just kept his rep on FC, since rep amount also ramps up

[@illy9071]

Har-Bin-Jer. Soft G. Good video though.

[@glennabernethy9974]

Blob warfare 101

[@jimmydahond]

Hey bro. What's the point of a facecam when we can only see your neck?

[@Lulzwhat]

Just a simple rule: no skills - no kills.

[@seleldjdfmn221]

*hug*... how Long have you been at It? Enjoy your evening :o

[@Crusader2132]

oh my goodness, as a fellow FC. Make a target broadcast hotkey, watching you right click to broadcast each target is super cringe lol

[@Jintaan]

I learnt to play before that existed, it's muscle memory at this point

[@Crusader2132]

@@Jintaan i got 14 years in myself. Should try it out. Will greatly improve your target calling speed. And allow emergency broadcasts for things like booshers

[@FirstNameLastName-okayyoutube]

protip.. overheat immediately. If you cant kill it before your guns burn out.. you fucked up anyway.

[@wizardbrandon3544]

why do you say "spread those damps out" like 18 times in a row. like. we heard you the first time
