Initially I was aiming for a Group that has already experience with Carriers. But I see no reason to set a limit here. The fact, that you bothered getting a JHDC in the first place shows, that you are more than interested. Consider yourself in.
I agree with you on that TP. If we help people get started it will help cultivate a larger group in the long run. Don't be afraid to post your build and ask for advice. We're all happy to help out.
Well, we got the Optionals just in time on Khitomer Vortex, BUT we got them. Yeah, it was fun. Especially using RaidCall again for quick coordination / information. That certainly saved us in Khitomer, when one of the Guards was down and the Probes came dangerously close to the Vortex.
Yes, finally I have managed to hobble together some equipment for my T6 Breen Carrier, and so with great pleasure I am now able to announce that it is now combat ready!
I still have to get all the rep and fleet gear, but now I have a decent starter platform (for a lv 50) and so I may be able to join in in some of the fun!
