skill injector process.

I thought you just bought the skill injector and away you go. But it sounds like you get skill points taken away and reallocated.

Thanks in advance for the link or if you feel like it a step by step would be cool

There are two items we are talking about here:

Skill Extractors allow you to extract skill points from your character. Once you have placed 500,000 SP into an extractor it becomes a skill injector.

Skill injectors allow you to add skill points to your character. When added they go into your unallocated SP pool, ad can be added to any skill. Characters with high SP levels get diminishing returns from using them.

Both items can be traded on the open market. If you are just interested in acquiring skill points then you can buy and use injectors. If you want to Reallocate or sell SP, then you want to buy an extractor and use/sell the injector that it produces. Only extractors can be bought for Aurum however in the NES.

The support pages is a great resource to start with:
https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us/articles/207605005-Skill-Extractors-and-Skill-Injectors

I recently got 4M points from the SiSi Mass Tests, and I was surprised at the new mechanics in the Allocation phase.
I used to rightclick skill > Allocate points to fill out skill levels, now it can go thru all the listed skills in your skillqueue in
two steps. Kinda.. nice, but the ease of all of it... its was easy to make poor skill decisions in my case.

Hopefully you didn't fall for one of the Jita scams where they advertise an injector but sell you an overpriced extractor (via contracts).
