I really love your style of commentary, it's great for a new player like me to see how vets have fun in eve. You were pretty much the main reason I decided to get into eve when I was still looking around for eve vids. Congrats on the milestone, hope to see more eve content!
Good day, I really love your videos. Since I am quite a newbie to the game I looked for a Chanel that makes good explanation vids and yours are great. For example I learned just now how to create safe spots and the thing with the bookmark. And, I don't know if anybody ever told you, but you sound like Michael Cain and it is the most relaxing and compelling thing. I love it. If I would "sign up" for the giveaway, which I am not I would set up my Cormorant as a Kiting/Sniping vessel for FW to help out my Corp. Again awesome videos. Have a great day and fly safe. o7
Your channel has been an absolute god send! I have made and tried basically all your alpha builds :D thank you for helping the people that don’t want to/can’t afford to be Omega. Keep the vids coming because they are brilliant!
Hey, first time commenting on your vids, been a sub for a while and find your content inspiring. I'm a newbie really, just two or three months old but got two omegas and two alphas. One of my alphas will be a naughty one where i try out all kinds of risky things with no qualms, supported by the other accounts. But, even the other accounts need to make isk and so if I had a cormorant I would follow your fit and use it to learn about these incursions and escalations which currently I'm still in the dark about. So much to learn in eve, the trick is locating the information!
I am really glad you are enjoying the game so much and we played a part in that, thank you for the comment ! Yes there is so much to Eve it requires some investment to get the most out of it, but it is worth it. Players will teach you more in the game than most other sources combined. I still learn stuff, all players do. Anyone who thinks they know it all is mad.. xD
Awesome video man, really pleasant watching u re videos. I underestimated the power of destroyers. Thanks to you i ll give them a shot instead of the expensive Gilas :)
Good plan! Learning to get the most out of the smaller /cheaper ships will certainly make you much more effective in Gila etc. Yes the Algos is great, I will have to take one out sometime for sure.
Hello mate, I'm taking a run down to Ane...will be in my Helios. I won't have anything but the 20 mil I've got in my bank, which was all thanks to your scanning vids. Did a cheeky little worm hole scan down and got some lovely bits and bobs to sell. I'd use the 10mill to give this destroyer smash and grab set up that you've got going on here. Been in wormholes for the last month, now I feel like making some spaceships into dust for a month... after a month of jumping at my own probes hoping that the data and relic sites that spawned are not guarded by sleepers 😁
Hi Mark. I've been following you for a few months now. I'm a high SP/multi-billion player, but as someone else mentioned here, I'd become pretty bored. You inspired me to "get small", learn (or relearn) the actual tactics of flying well, and take different types of risks. The wormhole lifestyle in particular has completely reawakened my enjoyment of the game. Thanks for all you're doing!
The way you play is rewarding enough for me. I lost interest in the game when I started flying T3s and other expensive ships... All fun was drained away, especially flying in fleets and FCing, it just burned me out. I love all your content (also you mud running series) and am thinking of starting a new account following your footsteps, and just fly for fun. Unlike you, I did take a nicotine break :) Cheers. PS: I'm not entering the contest since I have billions of ISK, think the prize should go to someone just starting out who needs the money ;)
Thanks Norman. Thanks so much, this is exactly the effect I was aiming for! :) Give it a go, playing with no real fear of it going wrong is so liberating and got he doing trying things I didn't think the alts and ships could do from my hi SP/ billions position. IT IS FUN
I'm not a billionaire but same here, any new players like a week old after a chat to see how they like they game I give them a bit of isk to get started,last one I met he was a week old in a venture and gave him 50 mil
CONGRATULATIONS! And WOW! Look at how you're channel has grown all the people you're inspiring to re-enter the game/build confidence and just have fun playing the game! I love reading sub comments :) Keep doing what you're doing!
Jehu yes mate you are right. If I am looking for 3/10 for a vid I try to scan them, running refuges and hideaways is quick and they will escalate eventually, but I wouldn't want to be reliant on those to find them.
Only just started playing eve in the last three weeks or so, so much to learn so I’ve been watching your RUclips vids and I just wanted to say the content and presentation is excellent, and to thank you for taking the time. Although I have hundreds of questions, I will keep it to just one.. although I plan on upgrading to omega, would you recommend maxing out the five mill skill points limit first. TYVMIA.
A little tip also when making a safe spot, warp back to your original safe, then pick another warp to location thats at an angle to your first, warp to that and make a safe along the way.
I'm quite shocked. The dude saw like fifty different rats and just daid "poor rats" then massacred them all. What a machine. I mean, if he madr enough money for battleships in an afternoon and is flying around in a bloody destroyer, then you know you don't mess with the man.
For the contest - With 10 mil for a cormorant I will use it to belt rat until I inevitably lose it to a stronger clone soldier cruiser due to poor piloting.
Yep, using your fit for the original Cormorant you used. I think its a good balance between price and performance. Might upgrade it later, or might not. Good work sir.
Hey Mark. Great set of vids, which I'm burning through. So much to enjoy. 10M ISK would boost my own Cormorant fleet. I fly Cormorants for railgun sniping and Thrashers for rat killing, but the Cormorant model is my favourite (even without the West Ham skin). I already dropped you a note a few days ago, I'll do it again and link this comment. T.
When I win I plan on using the ISK to fund my “Don’t Fear the LowSec Reaper” campaign. I will encourage a friend or two to join me in living, dying, and learning to be ok with loosing ships. Can’t wait!
As promised I fit the cormorant for some belt ratting. I ended up at around 8.8 million isk in Dodixie, so the rest of the 10mil will go towards faction ammo for better dps against clone soldiers. I'm using a setup that gives me a little bit more survivability but does not use the mwd or the web. I'm hoping to just burn away with the afterburner while chipping enemies down. I went with the 125mm rail guns to utilize the optimal range bonus and also because it was much easier to fit the entire ship with 125's instead of the 150's. I fit as good of mods as my skills and fitting allowed. Here is the fit, and thanks again for the drawing!

Congratulations mate!! When I found your channel the first thing I did was hit the sub button, great channel

Thanks Perry! Lots more to come :)

Awesome video man, really pleasant watching u re videos. I underestimated the power of destroyers. Thanks to you i ll give them a shot instead of the expensive Gilas :)
This kind of route will make you your Gila more dangerous and also safer because you have learnt so much without the threat of a very large loss. xD
I did the same route, but in an Algos. I loved that thing, and it sure did perform.
It got me perfectly ready for my jump to the Gila.
Good plan! Learning to get the most out of the smaller /cheaper ships will certainly make you much more effective in Gila etc. Yes the Algos is great, I will have to take one out sometime for sure.

Congratulations reaching your channel's goal! i want a FleetStar not a destroyer haha... cheers mate.
Thanks Deka! :) 'Trucks in Space' is a concept i have in my head LOL. Fleetstar later, if only I could put blasters and and an afterburner on it :)
This video and commentary is hilarious. Great stuff. More of this play-by-play stuff, please. Just great.
CONGRATULATIONS! And WOW! Look at how you're channel has grown all the people you're inspiring to re-enter the game/build confidence and just have fun playing the game! I love reading sub comments :) Keep doing what you're doing!
Hi DadDex! your videos are always very useful! Thankyou! greetings from your Italian fan!
Thank you Matteo, I am glad you enjoy them.!
Chances that combat site escalates is so abysmal that I always scan em down in high sec.
Jehu yes mate you are right. If I am looking for 3/10 for a vid I try to scan them, running refuges and hideaways is quick and they will escalate eventually, but I wouldn't want to be reliant on those to find them.
