After a couple of years away I have decided to see what I am missing in EVE

I currently have a Caldari character with some 45,087,867 skill points so I think it would be unwise to start from scratch
Although I still seem to read a lot of caldari cant PVP threads.... , so I jump in another races ship rightQuestion

I figured best play the tuturial with a new character to get the feel of the game again and take it from there..

So much seems to have changed over the 2 years I have been away, no idea what I want to do yet., maybe start with some PVP in a little rifter and see how long a survive, or some scouting if the systems..... dare I say I am evening looking forward to mining!

Any old REDX members around,,,, One of my first things is to find me a good corp

Happy New Year

Wow, you've just made my forum experience 1,000 times better. THANKYOU!

I know sometimes it's difficult to realize just how much you spend on incidental things each month or year, but seriously, EVE is very cheap entertainment compared to most things... If you are a smoker, smoke one less pack a week and pay for EVE, with money left over to pick up a cheap bundle of flowers for the EVE widow upstairs.

And now a non-trolling post:

Yes, best thing to do is create an alt on one of the free slots you have or on a trial just to be able to run the tutorials again to get the hang of the 'new' EVE.

After that, just continue with your main character as you want. And all those telling you that Caldari suck in PvP, why do we see so many Drake fleets in pvp flying around, why are most Stealth Bombers Manticores and why is one of the major logi based around the Basilisk.

Annoyed by Falcon / Blaclbird / Scorpion anyone? Roll

You should cross train for some armor ships up to battleship too (maybe Amarr) so you can fit in most fleets.

This is now a thread about nerfing ECM?

Also, stop giving bad advice. Eve is not all about massive fleets of immobile battleships alternating between targeting and pushing F1. Choice in ships is dictated by choice in playstyle and personal preference. E.g. I do FW, so skilling up a fleet BS is largely pointless. You do 0.0, so skilling up any sort of subcap ship is largely pointless.

@OP, Caldari is great at PvP and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. They usually serve as force multipliers rather than the "big punch" though, so I would recommend finding some people to fly with as a team.

Most importantly, though, don't let people tell you how to play. Including me, to make that a bit meta. Figure out what niche you can have most fun in, then find people to fly with depending on that.
