EVE New Citizens Q&A

Which is the best order to do tutorial agents? I want do them all but how best to start? What do the last?

Exploration is the hardest. You'll either love it or loath it.
As Webvan said, do both the Military first, then it really doesnt matter which.
Then go onto the 'Sisters of Eve' Epic ark missions. - The grand tour of New Eden!

I recommend starting with the basic military, then completing them in whatever order you please. Since you are planning on knocking them all out, it doesn't really matter. Regardless of the order you choose, they will be done before you know it. I did basic military, exploration, then advanced military, just because that is the career path that I've decided to focus on.

Do the stuff you are excited about first, that way you can put those free skillbooks to use right away.

Cheers.

Only two rules, really:

Do Industry before Business, otherwise you won't have a mining laser to use when first required to do so in Business.

And, fairly obviously, do Military before Advanced Military.

military --> advanced military
rest = any

is the only order i would say there is

I'd wager the new Venture mining frigate will beat a mining destroyer.

I seem to recall that you can always buy the minerals as well for most if not all the tutorial missions that "require" mining.
Beats even the Venture.

But why train it up for the bonuses unless you are going for a mining career? Like on my main, a destroyer and the skill book was useless, bought a cruiser. If you are not Gallente, chances are you won't consider drones until at least BC training, and that'll take considerable skill training to keep them from getting destroyed now since retribution.

At low levels, just seems more realistic to train combat skills first, especially if going to the epic arc right after the career agents. In fact as was said, it's probably better just to buy the ore for the agent, which I recall doing before, though mined it with this char for quick ISK since I haven't dumped ISK onto this char from the other. But mining can be avoided, and selling off the books and ships to buy a cruiser is the easy rout. Though destroyer training is good if you ever plan to pvp at any level.

There isn't really any definitive way to do it though. Comes down to preference and if the newbie already knows what they want to get into. Though even if not pure combat, combat skills are most likely going to be of some priority, especially early on since newbies start out with hardly a DPS to do a dent.

Yup, had three on my destroyer. Could have added more, but it was fast enough for the few hours of mining I did, didn't want to buy more. Used a cargo expander as well, yup, got it from the career agent. I didn't train mining up much, was training for frig, dessy and hybrid V at the time, farming roids for isk to buy equipment rather than missioning for it. But took my time with the career agents, doing other things as I worked through them. After all, they hadn't changed too much since I first did them.

You are fixated on training a lot of needless skills. The destroyer will haul and even mine if need be. You can skip mining, you don't need to even train the skills, better off focusing on combat skills. If you are having problems with loading weapons (or even mining modules), there are modules to help with your power requirements, they worked fine for me.

Bottom up.
