How to NPSI
"Fleeting up with the mentality of: if you're not with me, you're against me."
What is NPSI?
For many, NPSI introduces capsuleers to PVP, and a whole different spectrum of opportunities within EVE online. Like it or not, NPSI is growing, and is here to stay.
NPSI – or Not Purple Shoot It – quite simply, is fleeting up with the mentality of “if you’re not with me, you’re against me”.
Broadly speaking, in EVE, this means that anyone in your fleet (who by default appear as Purple on your overview & brackets) is your friend, and everything else is a valid target. NPSI is an opportunity to find new pilots, make new friends, learn new tactics, and have FUN and paint killboards a mixture of colours!
NPSI is the most accessible and quite often the most rewarding PVP content available in EVE online. At FUN inc, we are working hard to engage with NPSI entities in New Eden to centralise content creators to act as a springboard for cross harmonisation of groups with the sole intent of promoting variety, visibility, and inclusivity of content.
