How long from starting the game before a player can get into pvp action with a reasonable chance of surviving fights?
|
I joined a pvp corp when I was still in my free trial, actually the corp had just formed an alliance with some other corps a few weeks before I joined and was basically just setting up and establishing itself.
We were wardec'd by Mercenary Coalition about a month after the Alliance formed, I was pewpewing dudes from FRICK (more often than not getting station camped by said dudes) the day after I upgraded from my 14-day trial. Even managed to gang up in some frigates and a couple of cruisers and take out an interceptor pilot! this was at 300k sp (back when the asian themed characters could start with stuff like Gunnery V).
Basically you need to ask yourself what "reasonable chance of surviving fights" means. All ships have a place and situations where they shine, its up to you manufacture those situations.
