EVE New Citizens Q&A

We are two friends starting on EVE; my mate had a mission where he recieved an implant he already had and he wanted to give it to me, but we cannot figure out how he can deliver it to me.

We are now trying to jettison it, but i was wondering if he could kind of "email" it to me or some sort.

Thx.

Ah! Ninj'd by theStar...

You can't send physical items across space. The same as in RL. However, if you are both at the same station, you can select the 'trade" option in the dropdown window form double clicking on your friend, from People and Places.

Only the first one to dock in the station will be granted the option to set up a trade. Then you just drag and drop the item or items from the inventory to the trade window.

Both parties then click "accept" and it will transfer the item into the other inventory.

Thx for the answers worked perfect!

Chances are, you didn't get killed in hisec. You probably went through lowsec and didn't check your path.

Go into your character sheet, then combat log. There should be a dropdown menu where you can select losses, which will show you the details. The information in these kill reports is often uploaded to third party killboards.

...In your case, I'm guessing it was this. You went into Amamake, a .4 system. It is also a very heavily-traveled path and thus almost constantly camped by Heretic Army, the guys who killed you - The amamake - Ossogur gate is a deathtrap if you aren't prepared.

You can avoid this by either setting your autopilot to avoid all lowsec (F10 -> autopilot -> settings) or avoiding specific systems by right clicking them anywhere and adding them to your avoid list (Though in the case of Amamake, I'd avoid Ossogur, as there are other paths leading through it that are generally safer).

First, you flown into low-sec, and of all low-sec in EVE one of the most hostile places of all - Amamake.

Second, as you said, you know you CAN be killed in high-sec, so EXPECT to be killed every time you hit the undock button, hence rule no 1: Don't fly what you can't afford to loose.

Third, if you open your character sheet and then go to Combat log, in there it will list all kills and losses by you. Double click one of them to open up a more detailed view. You can also go to EVE-kill.net, battleclinic or any other killboard website to see your combat history.

Sounds like everyone covered everything. I think it's also worth mentioning that you can transfer items between characters using contracts. I'm not going to explain them, but make a mental note to look into them. With no skills at all you can create 1 contract at a time.

Hah, that's funny.

You'll also want to avoid APing in high sec in smaller ships (or a pod) simply because there is a growing number of -10.0 pilots who are actively seeking these players out and podding them. I know of one mailing list where the tally is posted daily.
