Focus fire, a vital pratice in fleet

Yersteday night we went out in a small fleet of three pilots: a 270 dps Incursus, a Rifter and another standard Incursus, very tanky. We moved in a Fw area and in few minutes we killed two T1 ships, a Tristan and an Incursus, both fitted for PvP. In Agoze we spotted a Comet in a novice outpost and an Incursus in a small. To point the Navy Comet we first sent the tanky Incursus. Our Incursus engaged the target inside the plex when we were already in warp to join the fight. At the novice outpost gate we saw two Incursus landing, just after us. The Fc was calling: "activate the gate, ignore the two Incursus. Primary is the Comet". Rifter and the "dps" Incursus killed the Comet in few seconds, then the Fc was calling: "Anemophis I Incursus is primary", "Anemophis I Incursus is primary".

Our tanky Incursus went down. We still were two against two and unfortunatly the rifter pilot was not following the FC call. He was shooting the wrong Incursus. An Incurus fitted with 2 reps can tank a lot, so with a split fire, they both were managing to tank easly. They focused on our rifter, that went down after few seconds. The Fc on the dps Incursus managed to disengage after a quick reaction and a lot of luck. Afterward, analyzing the fight, it was clear that we could have a good chance to kill both the Incursus, of course if we were focusing fire.
