I wasted a lot of time with my main running missions for all sorts of different NPC corps. I didn't understand how the whole LP thing worked. I do now, but not then. I probably have 200K LPs spread across about 10 NPC corps. For this alt, I am sticking with Caldari Steel (she's a mining alt), but my main, whew...all over the place.

Also, I would add, it would be nice to know what the differences actually are. I know some NPC corps don't offer mining missions, period. Others only offer security and distribution missions, for example. But, are there any differences between the types of missions? For example, does one NPC corp offer more anti-Gallente missions than the others? Or may be Sanshas over Angels, or what have you...


Sounds like a need for a really well skilled missioning Corp. I've been to too many Corps that decide because they can do missions, it is time to go to Null sec now.

A strictly missioning Corp, in high sec that specializes in Incursions, or low sec missions would be a great thing in Eve.

i wish i knew it was viable to enter nullsec early with <10m sp. I spent so much time "preparing" for nullsec and procrastinating about it because all i ever heard was how hard it was.

Its not hard.

I wish I'd known that you cannot buy an invulnerable ship, no matter how expensive.

Likewise, I wish I'd known that Skill Points don't produce ISK, and don't provide invulnerability.

Advanced combat. I'm still not quite there to be honest. With all the different terms, tactics and the multitude of different types of modules, as well as balancing the use of your capacitor, it is a lot to take in at first. An 'Advanced Combat' tutorial would be great to give people a feel for the kind of combat they'll encounter in PVP.
