Getting on Comms
Description: Guidance on getting onto voice comms.
Purpose: Comms are an important part of coordinating activities in Eve Online. While not strictly necessary for most HMA activities it is essential for anything that requires rapid communication such as PvP or incursions.
Discord
This is used by the HMA because it requires no special client or installation. It is also used by many groups for their social comms due to its convenience.
- Obtain a Discord invite such as this one for Rogue's Gallery and click on it. These are frequently located in channel MOTDs or on the group's website.
- Select your Display Name. This should, ideally, be the name of your character.
- Create and Account or Login.

HMASeAT Authentication
Description: Guidance on authenticating your eve character(s) with HMASeAT. For more information on SeAT see their GitHub page.
Purpose: HMSeAT accesses character information via Eve Online's API to authenticate our members. As an organization, it makes it easier for us to maintain access control and operational security while allowing us to make more accurate assessments regarding our capabilities. For our members, it makes it easier to gain access to the information and resources they need.
- Click here to access the login page.
- Select the appropriate level of authentication.
- Public provides access only to publicly available information. This is sufficient for users who just want to confirm that their identity.
- HMA Members provides access to private information necessary to make use of core HMASeAT functionality. This is intended for members of the HMA and the Rogue corporate family.
- Full Access provides access to all available information include mails and wallet balances. This is intended for users who require privileged access within the HMA and the Rogue corporate family. However, anyone is free to select this if they want to consolidate their Eve Online information into one place (which is pretty cool).
- Login using Eve Online's SSO. For more information about how this works, click here. During the login process, you will be given a chance to verify the scopes that are being requested. You will also need to specific which character you are using as the API access is character specific. If you have multiple characters involved with our organization you will want to link those as well (see below).
- Once you've logged into HMASeAT click on Connector>Identities and then +Join Server for Discord. Follow the prompts, to link your HMSeAT account with your Discord account. Obviously, if you don't have a Discord account you will need to make one.
- If you need to add additional characters, click on the Cogs in the top right then Link Character. From here, the process is the same as your initial character. You can also change your main character by clicking Change Main Character and selecting a new character. Your main character will be what is used for your Discord identity.
