RvB is sports for rich *beep*ers who spend millions while Minmatar children are still starving down on planets. It's a cruel world we play in.

Hey,

I think you're forgetting the reason you are doing all those missions. Remember that missions are just an income stream. The reason you do missions is to make isk to do something else. not just to do even bigger missions.

Spending all your isk on anything is a bad habit, time to break it. But now is a good time to start coasting. Level 3s can pay for several fitted frigates pretty quickly. Time to start building your frigate fleet of madness.

You've obviously learned the basics, time to join a good corp, The corp tool seemed pretty good last I used it, much better than hanging in the recruitment channel anyway. Really, part of finding a good corp is deciding what you want and going out and getting it.

You could try grinding for a certain corp so you can get jumpclones near lowsec, while grinding the standings you'll have enough isk to stockpile pvp frigates near the said lowsec. Doing this at least will have a point and not just an endless cycle.

Doing this will also allow you to pimp your hisec-isk-making clone for when you are running missions to fund your low/null trips.

Maybe check out this career guide. http://swiftandbitter.com/eve/wtd/eve-wtd.jpg There are a lot of fun opportunies. Faction war, look for a FW corp. PvP, try out redvsblue to see if you like pvp, then look for pvp corp. Try different professions like industry, exploring, etc. Have you conserdered being a pvp marketeer? Playing the market is loads of fun. Maybe do some research into corps and see if corps are looking for a niche role, research that niche role and if it sounds interesting to you, do it for the corp. /shrug Lots to do, fun around every corner waiting for you.

If you want to start PvP, get in a cheap (read, meta 0 fit, no rigs or only cheap rigs) frigate or cruiser and just head for _low_ sec, not null. Null will eat you alive as a solo player specializing in anything but stealth. Faff around, talk **** in local, get in some fights, get blown up, replace ship, repeat. Tristan and Vexor are fine for this, you don't need to cross-train rifter just to blend in with the conformists.

If you want to keep missioning and just be less bored, downgrade your ship category-- cruiser for L3s, frigate for L2s, etc. It'll take longer and thus be less profitable, but also suck less. Alternately, make a friend. Two people running level 4 missions is faster and more profitable than either one or three people most of the time.

If you just want to do something that's not mission running, head to low-sec and scan some sites down, then run them while keeping an eye over your shoulder for pirates. Or scan a wormhole in high-sec (so it'll be a C1/C2 hole, most likely), omni-tank a BC, and go fight the sleepers.

If you're actually wanting to give up combat entirely, there's always mining (ick), industry (eh) or pure market trading (yay). Those'll require some cross-training, though.

Direct answer to your question: the next step is to join a player corporation that does something at least mildly risky in small gangs. PvP, protected mining ops, incursions, group L4s, whatever. This is an absolute **** solo game, but it's a pretty good MMO, so make some friends and/or enemies and you'll hate it less.

Scan down a hisec wormhole that leads into a C1 class system.

Go have an adventure. Don't worry about the isk...it will come in time.
