EVE General Discussion

Hey there ,

I just started playing again (on a new account , i had another account but with 1 month old char only and pretty messed up skills ) , so i made a plan wich is around 60 days long to be able to fly a manticore + drake T2 fit .

But what i can do during this time ?

I'm sure you'll give me the picture with every possibilities of Eve , but in every possibilities you must learn a lot of skills .. so can you guys help me ?

Level 1 missions are really boring and not rewarding at all , mining is not bad for money for a beginner i guess but its just so boring .

I know that in 2-3 months i will be finaly able to enjoy the game fully , but what can i do during this time ?

Thanks in advance .

Do the same thing you want to do in three months, but right now, with a smaller ship.

I want to PvP with the manticore , and do some L3 / L4 if possible with the drake to gain some ISK .

The new exploration system interest me also

Why do you want to fly a Drake and Manticore?

If the Drake is for missions, keep in mind that L3 missions are basically no different from L1 missions, so if you find L1 missions to be boring...


Grab a frigate and learn to PvP in that. Stealthbombers are pricy for newbies and don't really lend themselves to solo work.

Train some frig/destroyer skills and join the militia. And i would also recomend buying a PLEX this one time and sell it on the market. It will make your first month so much more pleasurable while figuring out how to bring in the ISK you need (it is easy in FW) and most importantly you will be able to buy ships in bulk from the start so you wont mind exploding (it is fun).

Play the game? Because you will be learning skills forever, it's never going to end.

Yea but remember your first few days , you can't do anything but train skills

But it will be over soon

You can do enough, believe me. If you dont know what to do in eve now, you wont know it in a month.
Get a frig and do pvp in the militia as all the other ppl out there. 3 days of skills are enough.
Or go for exploration, a friend made 300 mil in lowsec with a 6 day account.
Mission, trading, pvp, producing, join a corp!!! And have fun with them.
If you still say its all boring, quit eve !

Well, now that you wait for your Manticore and Drake. Build up t1 frigate with fit you think is best for your skills, buy 10 of them and fit them aswell, then off you go learn to PvP if thats what you wish. If you notice that you getting killed 24/7 on your roaming then try some PvP newbie corps while waiting skills. Red vs Blue I think is still around. Plenty of low skilled players who wish to PvP in there I think.

Or maybe you into ISK. I have no experience of mining so I wont say anything about it but, what I found to be fun to do is salvage. I watched steam last night of one guy 3 days old character making 100 million by salvaging level 4 missions. Not ninja salvaging but asking mission runners if he can salvage or do they wish to 50/50 profit from salvage.

Do courier missions. One will ask, why the hell... Well if you plan to PvP, its always good to have jump clone without implants, specially for people who just start to PvP. To get jump clone you need 8.0 standing with NPC corp. Courier missions dont need much skills to do them, all you need to have ship with fat belly and station with 2-3 level courier agents in it.

There is also plenty of other things to do while you wait, you just need to think outside the box.
