My goal in this addendum to Phil's guide is to build on his advice, and explain how to get the most out of teamwork. My experience with teamwork includes leading or being part of pre-mades, pug-mades, and using a wide range of communications, team tactics, and strategies.
Quick Explanation:
Pre-Made = a team where eveyone's builds compliment the others, and team members know how everyone's builds work together. This is very hard to do, and takes lots of practice.
Pug-Made = a team where everyone knows each other, but there is no "planned" synergy between builds. Most of the time you will be in a pug-made.
In both cases, working together can turn an impossible situation into a glorious victory. Or, you might find yourself against a team of similar experience, and end up in a fast-paced, finger-numbing, 3-hour adrenalin rush (2nd best battle I've ever been in!). My goal with this guide, as I get around to writing it, is to improve the fleet's PvP teamwork. Let Phil help you get the most out of your individual setups... I'll help you get the most out of your teammates' setups.
