Well the title says it all

Here is my character:
http://eveboard.com/pilot/chowdan_Orlenard

What do you all think i am good for? What should i be training?

I'm sort of lost on where i should take my character from here.

What do you mainly do when you play eve?

From the looks of your skills you have been doing a bit of trading?

Going off this assumption i would hone in your skills on trading and also head for a freighter.

Thanks for that.

When i started i did mainly trading but after some time and saving up isk, i started to do salvaging.

Would you recommend maxxing out my trading skills? adding to them or what?

Thanks for the tip so far:)

Trading is cool, and as you progress, you might travel all over eve.

Freighter will help, and I see you are on the way to that.

BUT:
Trading can be boring, monotonous, uninspiring stuff.
Eve has many paths of entertainment.
Try some missions
Try some PvP
Try some manufacturing

Also see about joining a corp where people are active. More people = more fun.

Missioning for the Corp/Faction of the station(s) you will be doing your trading in might break up boredom and cut taxes and fees a bit on your trades to boot!

If you have all the skills trained up, you can even manage Station Trades remotely while missioning elsewhere in the region.

Inter/Intra-region trading will require Industrial ship skills or an alt.

I like this idea of station trades. I might have to look further into that.


Also might look into manufacturing. Might start an alt character for that since I dont think my character has any progress towards it.

Why no skill implants? A set of +3s at the very least will help speed things along.

Perhaps train into a Viator and do courier missions for the more industry related factions. I'd also suggest picking up a Helios or Nemesis as they make hauling small, valuable cargo such as bp's or faction mods a bit less risky.

Thanks for that. Do the courier missions contain any PVE?

I always wondered how one would transport BP's with security. I never transport mine for the sole reason of not willing to risk the item/ship.
