EVE New Citizens Q&A

First, what are you wanting to do? This is a big factor in adjusting your skills, as different occupations will of course need different skills.

Just a couple things stick out. Good choice on Electronics, Electronics Upgrades, and Engineering for fitting. I would recommend taking the step from weapon upgrades 4 to 5, and getting advanced weapon upgrades to 3-4 at least.

Since you are flying shield ships (drake, tengu) there is something you can do that will help sooo much. Get the skills EM/Explosive/Kinetic/Thermic Shield Compensation to at least 3 if not 4. This will boost the effect of hardeners on your ships by a lot, and really help your tank out. You should also get Shield management to at least 4 if not 5, and that will give you another 10-15% on your shield HP.

Nothing else sticks out right now, but again, it will depend on what you want to do. What I mentioned is something you really should have as soon as possible though, especially the shield skills.

This is really one of the few questions we can't really help you with.

Why?

Because it is all personal, it really depends on what you want to do.

We can say, train mining skills. But if you don't want to mine, they are useless.
We can say, train trading skills. But if you don't want to trade, they are useless.
We can say, train PvP skills. But if you don't want to PvP, they are useless (sort of).
We can say, train for "x". But if you don't want to do "x", it will be useless.

Recommendation:

Get EVEMON or EVEHQ. Think what you want to do in EVE and what ships and skills you need for that (keep in mind, bare minimum doesn't mean you can do it efficient / properly).

Then use EVEMONE / EVEHQ to map out a skill plan.

You can also look up ships and modules and see which skills are required and recommended for it. Should help plotting your initial course.

Your skilling doesn't look horrible, seems fine, but yeah you need to tell us what you want to do. Judging from your account it looks like you're interested in PvP mostly.

Actually, no history in the forums of that character being sold.

So if it's bought, it's bought through unofficial ways

How it's been sold is beyond the scope, how would someone skill a T2 fit HML/tengu without knowing *how* to skill? I don't care if the dude's been foolish enough to buy a toon through unofficial ways, but it's just silly to say "not new but have no idea how to skill". Why the guys don't just say they bought a toons ffs is beyond me...

The following are general suggestions with an eye to focusing on strengths and what you have so far. If you had a more precise goal you could alter your course somewhat.

Drone skills -All supports at least 4 with a focus on Light drones. Don't forget Ewar drones give range as well as access to ewar drones of various varieties.

Long Range Targeting 4
Shield Management 4/5
Weapon Upgrades 5
Advanced Weapon Upgrades 4/5
Shield Rigging 3/4
Assault Missiles 5
Assault Missiles Specialization 4
Missile Projection 4/5
Rapid Launch 4/5
Target Navigation Prediction4/5
Warhead Upgrades 4/5
Hull Upgrades 5
Guided Missile Precision 4/5 *** You already meet the pre-req's.

Afterburner 4 max ? If you ever want to play around with creative fitting techniques taking Afterburner to 5 may create problems. leaving it at 3 and partially trained or 4 may be an idea to consider.

High Speed Maneuvering 4
Interceptors 4

Caldari T3 Subs to 5 (Huge benefits to finishing these off to 5.)
In the same vein you may want to train up Thermodynamics, primarily for PVP or PVE that turns into PVP.

The following offer some help with taxation related issues over the course of your career, even if you never become a very active trader:

Accounting 4
Broker Relations 4

thankyou all for all your help im a new char i didnt buy this character i just went on whims i had characters before i trained primarily for stealth bombers then moved to recons and such afterwards i dont really know how to skill my chars good enough i trained so i could fly a fully t2 fit tengu figured id work on t2 afterburner i would like to pve and maybe solo pvp to get some good kills up maybe wardec some people's corp so i can get some free kills as long as i dont end up getting myself f--ked i enjoy pvp i also enjoy pve mining i have a char for thats a mining only char since mining isnt really hard to train for at all i would love to fly amarr ships as well but i believe my energy skills are haphazard and i would end up flying like a jacka$$ but i also want to maybe set up a pos and do some bpc/bpo stuff but i really dont know how to do that either i need a direction ive got recon ships think i can use full t2 fit cep prop mod but what would someone like you do in my situation?

Too be honost. From the OP I already found this a troll.

But then again, plenty of genuine new players who may read this so might aswel answer the best I can.

But yes, 1/10 troll attempt.

Like said, flying Tengu yet not knowing how to skill. Sure, in what universe as it can't be New Eden.


EDIT:

I say someone supported RMT and bought this toon from Ebay or something.

E2:

Did a bit of looking around.

1.) Bio has a link to 2nd character.
2.) Corp history has NO show of being inactive for a while.

So yes, I would go with a totally failed troll

Seriously i'm not joking. Write in proper sentences and i'll be happy to help.

1 this is my account im the original owner and a rl friend helped me skill this character
2 this is a serious question i want to have support skills first but am unsure what to get those skills up to.
3. i dont want to get into a big shiny ship like a falcon that i can already fly or fully fit t2 tengu and die in a fire just to waste isk.
4. thankyou for your concern thinking that i bought this char on ebay but i did not just unsure what to skill or what to do now that ive gotten into recons and strategic cruisers. i've even trained the caldari freighter because of indecisiveness. i think i have an idea of a skill plan that involves getting all base skills to 5 then working on advanced support skills then fill up my caldari skills learn to fly everything caldari would probably be smarter than start to cross train but everyones opinion would be nice, thanks guys 07 fly safe
