    Greetings fellow Captains,

    As some of you may have noticed, recently I have been attempting to start with the foreign art of PvP.

    I am quite skilled with PvE science builds, been able to hold my own.

    However the complete and utter inability to last more than 3 seconds alive under ANY form of fire is really starting to annoy me. I have taken advice from various people via Team Speak and was wondering if people could put some thoughts of how to run a Science Captain in PvP.

    I m currently trying my hand at a Vesta build expertly flown by Pheonix and Bane but as mentioned I just die and die Very Very easy.

    Science ships I have at my disposal are :-

    All Vesta's
    Fleet Intrepid
    Fleet Nebula
    I dont have any lock box ships.

    I just need some general advice before I lose all will to carry on PvP, my best so far has been using the Nebula as a healer which I fully enjoyed.

    So any advice would be great. Boff skills worth taking or worth avoiding even UI layouts as I think that is a limiting factor with me as I cant activate powers fast enough.

    Regards

    Log in to your Gateway Toon first then click the link.

    Its a decent PvP drain build Powerlevels are 25/50/25/100, with the leech and ES's it tends to run 125/125/125/130. AUX cannons are tight arc but with the RES/+turn console it is nimble as hell.
