EVE New Citizens Q&A

Good afternoon. So I am playing through the first mission. I received my ship, and it says I need to go find an object. I do not know where this object is, or what it looks like. Could someone help me out?

Ty.

Good morning. I have another issue with the first mission(Embarassing :( ). I got my ship, I retrieved the cargo I was supposed to. I completed the mission. Now it wants me to equip my ship with a gun and repair systems that I retrieved. I can fit the gun but not the repair systems, it says I need to learn it. It isnt available in my skills menu. Someone says I should have learned it through the tutorial but I do not think I was presented it. Is there a way to go back and learn it? I really dont want to pay 30,000 isk to buy the repair systems skill or reroll another character.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

He's done one mission, he probably only has 100k :)

I'd check your items hanger before making a petition, the skill books from the tutorial tend to land there.

Just dock in the station you woke up in and left click on the items button, should be near the bottom of the side menu bar.

If it's still not there, go ahead and file a petition.

Hi. I did the same tutorial missions earlier today. It worked fine for me. If you're missing the skill book, it sounds like you didn't do the skill learning part of the tutorial. I think you should go back and do the earliest part of the tutorial again. If I remember correctly, the skill book was something that the teacher added to the player and you could find in your inventory.

Sorry for my bad descriptions, but rest assured that the tutorial isn't bugged. I've done it very recently myself. Try looking around for that book. It should be hanging around there somewhere, Federal Navy brother!

Update: I just signed in to look around for it, and there it was in my inventory when I definately had checked multiple times. I know iI have checked because I tried equipping the repair systems fitting to my ship, and I remember seeing Items [1]. I opened up a petition about 20 minutes ago. I guess they put it in my inventory!

Thanks anyways.

Yay! All's well that ends well, eh?

Several of the career tutorial missions give you a module and tell you to fit it, but the skill that enables you to do that is actually the reward for successfully completing the mission. Seems a bit ****-eyed to me.

Also, at least one mission tells you to learn a skill given in the Crash Course, which as far as I'm aware no longer exists.

I've done the newbie starter and career agent missions for everyone but Minmatar over the last week and they all seem to be working (at least for me). Make sure to go all the way through the Aura pop-up tutorials as that is where most of the skill books are handed out (and they land in your item hangar). Additionally, most of the equipment you are issued is the Civilian version of actual equipment. The Civilian versions require no skill to use or fit, from what I can tell. Unfortunately,the Civilian versions only seem to work during these tutorial missions. On the plus side, you can reprocess them for materials.

- My overviews seem to change alot and I try not to mess with them too much. Not sure why that happens.

- Also, the smartbomb mission definitely taught me to keep local up. Kind of annoying that instructions/advice for these starter missions occasionally appear in pop-up windows and occasionally in local.

That was like, 15 minutes into playing the game for the very first time. Considering the tab was probably on the Rookie Help tab, I'm still not sure it would have helped. LOL

Now I keep it up.
