Fleet Participation
Preparing for Fleets
- To learn about Winter Coalition doctrines, check this ingame channel: FRT-Doctrines
- This will show you the fits for each ship and each doctrine.
- Be sure to include any implant requirements (this will be listed as "capsule")
- Near the top of the channel you will see a link for skill plans. This is very useful to help you efficiently train what you need.
- Try to have at least one ship you can fly in your hanger for each doctrine. For frequently used doctrines, more then one ship is better.
- Set up push to talk keys for fleets in Mumble (required for fleets): http://i.imgur.com/KRcwhlc.gif This will allow you to talk in your current channel only. (Shows yellow icon). To talk to FC channel in a fleet use the Push-to-Talk shortcut key (shows blue icon)
- Watch the WC & Friends discord channel for pings, which will provide information about fleets you can join.
- Your participation in the fleet will be recorded automatically.
- Check with your CEO for details about the fleet requirements for your corp.
When You are in A Fleet
- Reduce distractions in your environment when you are in a fleet. Listen carefully for FC commands such as "align", "anchor", "jump", and "lock target"
- Check the MOTD when you join the fleet before you ask questions.
- Do not interrupt the FC
- If you broadcast targets without authorization during the fleet, you may be removed from the fleet.
Salvaging and Looting
- Do not loot a grid until given permission by FC. In the case of structures, violating this rule can have significant diplomatic consequences for both yourself and your alliance.
- If the fleet is moving intending to still fight, do not loot.
- Do not loot on out-of-fleet alts during a fight.
- Do not loot blue wrecks until the rest of the grid is clear, to give people a chance to return and loot their wrecks. If someone requests their loot back, provide it to them.
- DO NOT loot grids when you were not involved in the fight.
- If you are caught looting the grid and the fight is ongoing, FCs may primary the offender. This action is not something that a diplo will take a complaint for.
- Punishments may start with requirements to return the salvage, docking or ACL bans, repeated offenses could result in you being banned from WC.
NPSI Fleets
Use non-coalition alts, if possible; otherwise, don’t shoot blues and inform the relevant FC at the time why you can’t participate.
