Not sure where I should post this, so trying it out here!

Question in regards to these add-on packs, all of them seem to say the following:


"A full set of skillbooks and equipment to kit out and fly your ship"

What does that include? What skillbooks? What equipment? Is there different skillbooks for each pack? If so what goes with what?


  • Add-On Pack - The Colonist
  • Add-On Pack - The Explorer
  • Add-On Pack - The Industrialist
  • Add-On Pack - The Skirmisher


For the Core Starter Pack

A full set of modules and equipment to kit out your ship

What modules, what equipment? How many?

Over two dozen primary skills, ready to train

Which skills? Are they already injected? Are they skillbooks only?

A description is available for each package. Read it, process and comprehend it.

tl;dr it has stuff.

Just about everything a genuinely new player and character could need are practically free, once you start playing.

If there's vanity fashion, related items or similar there might be modest value. But really, ~everything~ a new player/character need in eve have next to no RL / Ingame monetary cost. At worst? Time. A human player needs to spend RL time learning the game and sadly no skillbook for a character or fancy ship can help you learn to play eve quicker than you would without them.

Thanks for showing us how quickly you didn't find the answer to my question.

None of the description listing for the ADD ON PACKS list what skill books are include, what equipment is included just as I noted in the original post.


Only way is to find people who purchased a Add-On pack and hope they remember what the skillbooks / equipment was included or a CCP Staff who has access to these add-ons who can then produce a list.

Shut up, just.. shut up. You had me at 'stuff'.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I purchased some of them and I can't remember what exact skillbooks were included. What remains as memory is gazillion of redeem items and feeling how worthless they were after couple of days. I would estimate the value of each pack at 20 million ISK at most and I would rather advice the player to do the early missions and read evelopedia than buy the pack and then not know what to do with it.

Those are mostly gimmicks and not worth thinking more than a couple of seconds. Just pick one. Skills are never auto-injected, you will get the skillbooks. Each new account can choose one pack. The only really valuable thing is the Cerebral Accelerator, you should plug it in immediately. This thing gives you boosted training and stats for the first 14 days of your EvE life, for older chars this implant/booster is useless.

The best way to do it would be to give out all skillpoints at once and all four soopers and titans in Deklein, that Gurista station ready to undock and one mission isk to start ratting like the big boys, to hell with progression.

Eve Minions is recruiting.

This is the law of ship progression!
