I am creating a new toon, but I can't, for the life of me, find an up-to-date guide or any info on how to create a toon that has the best trade skills (Trade IV, Retail, Accounting) already trained? I would also like to make sure I start with serviceable attributes. Are there any new utilities/guides that I'm missing? Thanks in advance for your help.

All races, all bloodlines start with the same skills trained (varying only by racial frig and racial weapons) and exactly the same attributes. A new character will have no skills in the trade category.

Didn't they change the starting skill set to be in par through all the careers, bloodlines etc? AFAIR racial frigate and weapon skills are the only difference between them. They reduced from ~800k to ~50k skillpoints for a new toon: http://community.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=618

:wq!
