Post Quick FC Guide (low level, lvl 500-)
There are a few steps into becoming a good FC, and you can even become one very cheaply at a low level.
First of all you have to get the Lyceum skill of Fleet Focus. you do that by doing a mission in Lyceum.
From Fleet Focus on you can choose Fleet Commander. This is the class you need :) .

at around level 50 it's good to become Fleet Commander, because by then you'll most likely have enough skill points for Fleet Focus, Fleet Commander and Radiation Expert at 3.
With this at 3 you can capture the Nexus "uber" Zobitan. Also smart to do is to get your Remote Control up as high as you can, because you need at least 3 to capture Zobitan, and every 2 levels(level 4, level 6, level 8 )and so on gives you 1 Zobitan. Zobitan Multi fires Zobitan Lasers(they keep the multi fire :) )and ethereal lasers.
If you have like, let's say, 5 Zobitans, you can go ahead and level up in around warp 1, on Space Blue Betas. With the levels gotten from it, it's smart to get more skill in Remote Control. Remote Control14 would be the best, because more you don't need.
So, now that you have your Zobitan Army, you can go a little bit deeper. Watch out though, even with these Zobitans around, you can still get hurt. equip a good shield on you!
if you can take a few hits, you can level on Space Blue Gammas, these tend to roam in warp 2-3.
With all these skill points gotten from your levels, best thing to do is to get yourself in an Earth Force Frigate. You need piloting and engine 10 to fly it. When you get this, it also enables you to get Capital Aura Generators, gotten at the Fleet Commander AI base in Lyceum.
If you have everything of normal skills(weaponry, piloting, shielding) at a level you find suitable(it all depends on which gear you use) try to focus more on Radiation Expert. This skill gives your Zobitans more firing power, and gives it more shields.

If you have 7 Zobitans, a good shield, a good aura and Radiation Expert skills up, you'll be able to blast through warp 2-3 in the dangerous area with Rosemaries and Multi Firing Basils. Watch out, these guys pack a good punch so you'll have to be able to tank some damage.
When you level around there, you'll get to level 500 in no time, it's very easy.

From level 500+ these guys don't do so good at leveling anymore, and it's best to get yourself in an Earth Force (Battle)Cruiser or Dreadnought with Destroyer, Cruiser or Battlecruiser slaves, but I'll leave that guide the Jey or WHY ME? or so ;)

Hope this helps all of you low level Fleet Commanders out there :)

Post Re: Quick FC Guide (low level, lvl 500-)
I'd love to get this, as i'm level 61 right now I think it's about time I start looking for a class and focus I want.
Unfortunately, I bought Support Focus in Gargan, now i'm stuck with that until I can make 50-60million. Which is hard since I currently have 1million.
It'll take me a while, so when I eventually earn the money I want somehow i'll be sure to reset my focus skills and such and get Fleet Focus.

I'm also sure there is another Multi-Fire ship which may be easier to capture than Zobitan. His name is Agent.. uh...-something. But he can be found in the 'Little Cadet Room' in nexus.

I tried it and found that good equipped 6 blue prototypes and 4 volcom outlaws deal more damage although the zobs are great against hues. I am able to do basil dungeons with the 6 and 4 which i tried with the zobitans and failed.

With maxed RadEx, Zobitans have around 15k shields. I don't think there's any AI that's better as wild slave as Zobitan

It starts with a K, actually, and it is crap. Very low shields, considering you can only have 2 of them, low damage, slow, ect.

For those that don't know, he means Kikale Mzungu Frigate
