EVE New Citizens Q&A

Ok. If you want to be a jack of all trades, then you will end up training in just about anything that catches your eye... and this will take a lot of time to do. The question really is "what do you want to do" but given a jack of all trades ideal, let's change the question a bit.

What do you want to do first?

If you find yourself mining more, then you'll want to focus on getting a good mining ship and get the proper mining/refining skills up.

If you enjoy missions/incursions then you will most certainly want to focus on Gunnery related skills, drones, tank of your choice (pick that based on the ship you most enjoy training --train "everything" later but get good at something now), and polish off any core skills that you may be lacking (I didn't bother looking at your skills but at least train to 3 or 4 to make sure you have the cap/grid for fitting). You may want to train some social skills to get better rewards and climb standings quicker, as well.

If you enjoy exploration, train up your science skills to better scan down and pinpoint sites quickly and accurately. You will also want to be able to handle relic and data sites so train the respective skills. You may want to get into a dedicated ship such as a covert ops or strategic ship so you can use a better cloak. If so, there are related skills for that as well.

If you more enjoy pvp, there is a whole world of ways you could tackle that but I would start with finding the ships you enjoy flying, learn their fits, and train the required skills to properly fit the ship provided your core skills are up to snuff.

Maybe you aren't a ship kind of person at all and you just want to make stuff. Train up your science and industry skills so you can build stuff or research blueprints. Also, find some R&D agents. You can make some good passive cash with datacores,
or you can use them for invention.

Train up social and trade skills if you plan on simply working the market. If you do, getting into a good industrial ship would be good if you plan on being a courier or haul goods from one hub to another. This would be industrial ship command, cargo expanders, rigs for cargo, etc.

As you can see, being a jack of all trades will take a very long time. You should really think about picking an area and work on that area first. You can always change your mind if you don't/or no longer like that route.. but pick a path and go down it. You wont get far if you take one step on every fork in the road --you'll just end up sitting at the crossroads wondering what's at the end.

Mining isn't exactly on my to do list. I do have a procurer from one of my older characters who was a miner, though. I do like to do it for money though. I'd say it's a low priority.

I am god AWFUL at exploration. Maybe it's because I don't have the skills yet...but I couldn't find my own rear while scanning.

Industry would be nice, but that's a low priority as well.

Trade skills are also a very low priority.

Social skills however, are beneficial to everybody for missions...so I will be needing those.

That brings us to PvP/Missions....Which is probably going to be my primary focus to start with. I would love to do everything else but I feel like those can wait (due to the past 6 mos. of this character's life literally being the training of skills to fit ships more easily)..

All of my fitting skills are capped... (Unless I missed one), as are my shield skills.

Only thing I don't have are drone/missile/gunnery skills (and some EWAR skills)
