Last night I had a flash of inspiration when out of no where I had the idea to do a Pop Quiz video based on a clip I recorded a few weeks ago out in Fade with my Dual Prop Taranis.
The idea is I show you the video up until a turning point then pause and ask what you would do.
So watch this video and then leave a comment telling me how you would react in this situation...
Watch Full Screen
Depending on how you like it, I may do these more often.
BTW I have added some new videos to the Ninja Pilgrim Guide since launch as well as created a new Tactics Part 2 lesson that I will be uploading tonight. Also I will pick the winners of the drawing tomorrow.

Your pretty much dead if you pull range, only option is to get under his guns by pulsing mwd and orbit 500
After the first volley, you're half armor. One more successful hit will probably kill you. Turn on AB and move in at approx. 45-60 degree angle. It's the safest way to get in until you can start the orbit, because MWD will blow up your signature (making it easier to hit you), and hitting orbit 500m immediately will make you go straight for him until you're at 500m (zero transversal, perfect hit from arties). AB puts your speed up, angle keeps the transversal up.
Na, you can tank 2 more hits maybe 3, remember he had damage before fight. First volley with MWD on will be mitigated if you approach at an angle . I would rather get In his face with my blasters fast. On the overshoot you switch to AB and go to town, he is probably MWD when scram lands he is hooped.
PS, I like this idea lots to learn from this example.
as you are long pointed, turn on a/b and jump back through gate, overheating everything. I think if you used the mwd, the increased sig radius, you would be popped before you could make it to gate
I agree with above statement....need to get that transversal up as well to mess up tracking of his guns....interested to see what you did.
To go with above comment you would need to get ur transversal up to mess up the tracking of his guns...also could give running back to the gate a shot as the majority of a taranis's hit points are in its structure and he has aggression timer...depends I guess if you want to fight or run.....
Very Kewl Idea on Pop Quiz! Due to the fact that it is a Svipul, I would probably get back through the gate. Could be wrong, but I personally would find it impossible to kill him. I'm probably way wrong on that but...I would also go with hitting the afterburner to the gate.
First thing that came to my mind was orbiting him close. And then somehow reapproach the gate and jump?!
Aproach at an angle and get on close under his guns and orbit with AB on. Switch to pod saver tab incase he still hits you or he has friends come to save your pod unless you want a free ride back to station.
