Can some PVP pros please help an industrialist get the Cat pirate skin? Pretty please???

[SoloPlayerZA]

I suck at PVP (due to ping and pc restrictions) and basically have a Cutty Black to use for the Pirate Swarm. Not getting very far.

Can someone / some people please help me get this? Can we maybe have an event if there are more people that are looking to get it?

Cheers!

yeap. You are required to stay alive long enough. 2 reasons:

• earn the Pirate version
• spread the Pirates attention

Is there a trick to completing pirate swarm in 3.11? It seems much harder.

It seems much harder than I remember it being. With two people we can pretty much only get to wave 5 or 6. I can't imagine defeating a HH. We're using stock Cutty Black and F7C. I am also having problems with ship selector because it's not letting me customize any ships at all (or even rent...

There is a new patch, so hopefully ship customization works again. TESTing it out right now

That is PvE, not PvP, but I'll help!
Add me to Contacts then invite me to Party if you see me on.


...whenever I can sign back in that is...RSI site seems to be dealing with F5 war fallout plus signing into the game seems to be getting difficult.

I'm able to sign in now as well as put in ship upgrades, also sent you a friend request, so keep an eye out for me, I'll join you in Pirate Swarm!

I don't see a CCU option for the Pirate Gladius or Pirate Caterpillar, so only option to get either looks to be to melt your current ship then use store credit.

 

[PeppaPigKilla]

there is no CCU mate,

Its melt and use store credit or new money

 

[SoloPlayerZA]

But its only 6months insurance???

That sucks yes.
But consider this if you want it, it is a trading ship, able to get you some cash to pay for longer insurance when game is out.
It is not a costly 6 months fighter ship not making any money besides PVE.

edit : they stated that paying for longer hull and default loadout insurance wont be a hassle. You will most probably be able to pay for a few years of insurance for that ship in less than a month thanks to trading.

Congrats on whacking the Pirates!

Maybe send Cig support a ticket asking very nicely if they can help you out with this?
Cos it's real scummy that you have to trade in your LTI for a 6month for basically just a skin
