Honestly, an "adopt a noob" program where people donate bpos to new players would be incredibly helpful and would definitely encourage players to stick around. Especially if when getting stomped you have a decent or even exceptional load out that costs you little or nothing.

It could be conditional that they pass on the BPO for free to a new player when they stop using it or are well off. Or even return it to the previous owner after X amount of time or when done using it.

I would totally help start this program, one cuz bpos, i have none, duh. But also because it would help new players feel welcome and part of a community that isn't just out to farm them. And even when getting farmed it's not as painful when you're not losing isk.

I actually was about to start that.

I called it- A4NP

Apex for noobs program. All you had to do was join my old Corp (which I lost and stopped this but might revive)

And just play. Yup, just play. The catch? There was higher tax Corp so more isk could enter Corp wallet. Then it would be used to buy Apex and give them to new players.

I like this idea. Dust University should employ this program, as I feel a lot of noobs get pushed to DU.

Any thoughts DU?

Just run FWs. You can grind out a suit in very little time. You can also run starter fits while doing it and not get crushed. I did this and it was the best thing to happen to my ISK flow ever. The first suit paid for itself and then bought another one in only a couple weeks. Then with two I just bought a third for 40 mill and suddenly I had options and the ISK kept flowing. So, trust me. Grind the loyalty suit you want. For a new guy the logis make a ton of SP and ISK. Also I seen you had some AUR to spend. FW boosters are super cheap and make grinding much easier.

Current APEX I have and fits I run on them : APEX Tiger: Slayer Scout/PC Scout(What I use when blueberry kills me in FW) APEX Shaman: Noob KIller for FW/Pubs(What I usually use to get WP's) APEX Rasetsu: Fun Fit Recruiter for FAS Recruitment Post!!!!!!

It costs either 100k LP + 10 mil ISK or -ú30 to acquire an APEX suit. You can't do that for everyone. Arkena Wyrnspire aka "British Khorne" - Cross Atu
