Hi everyone,

I've recently gotten into eve and have been playing for about a month. I'm an alpha clone and have mainly been doing a lot of exploration (I really like wormholes). I've lost a lot of ISK but think I've learned a lot.

I have come to a point where I have a few hundred million ISK but not sure what I should be doing to progress. I wouldn't mind getting into pvp but don't really have any combat skills trained and don't know where I would look to find it.

If I like wormholes what is a good type of corp that would help me further exploration and show me the ropes of pvp? I don't really want to join a null corp.

Is logi fun? Is it a good skill to learn to be a team player?

Tl;Dr: I've been exploring in WH and null. Sometimes I die sometimes I get out and safely sell my items. Where do I go from here?

Hello,

pretty unexperienced player with appr 25 mil Skillpoints. (Omega)

I am looking for a PVE ship for solo Mission running or Combat sites in High. Still learning.

Currently using the ONI with Heavy Missile Loadout (100km range) and wondering, if the Gila would be an upgrade for that use-case.

Any recommended alternatives? Rebuy shouldn't be too high. I like missiles and drones.

Thanks.

Hi guys,

I started the game four days ago and I quite like it ; the vibe/gameplay is very weird, but in a very charming way !

I know they are a ton of layers to the game, and playing with a guild (corp, right ?) is better. However at the start I'm just trying to get the gang of it, and focusing in crafting as it's something I like in video games. I have two main questions :

- Blueprints : I don't understand how to get them. I don't necessarily want the super-duper thing, just some basic blueprints that I can develop/research/craft to get my own small things. I read about NPC stations selling them, but I'm not sure how/where to buy them

- Mining : I have the Venture ship but it only has 50m^(3), which is really small no ? Right now I'm using the Badger to mine, as it has enough space for the missions given to me. But reading different posts on Internet, I feel like I'm missing something.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help guys :)

I started playing a few weeks ago and I quite like spending some time on the industry side of the game even though it makes less $$ than other activities like exploring.

Question: I have huffed thousands of units of gas over the weeks. Is there a software that compares the profit of selling that gas at Jita versus using that gas as an input material to create something even more profitable?

For example, the software will compare the profit of selling Golden Mykoserocin for 50k isk per unit at Jita versus using it as the input gas in the Reaction Formula: Axosomatic Neurolink Enhancer.

The software should import my skills, blueprints/items, and get the live prices at Jita, including the price of Golden Mykoserocin, blueprints/reactions and the cost of buying the other input materials that I don't have. As well as comparing the total profit if I get the input materials at buy/sell order prices.

From what I've seen, depending on the material and skills, sometimes it makes more profit to sell the raw material, other times its more profitable to manufacture a product using that material, but I can't work out an easier way to do calculate everything. I'm sure there is a software that can do this, I just haven't found it yet.

So I have played eve a fair bit a few years ago, however I remember basically nothing when it comes to in-practice stuff.

I have read up on a few posts here and on the main sub and it seems like ppl recommend doing tutorials, then air, then joining a corp. So would it be best if I created a new character and started over, even if that means no money no skills? When should I jump back to my old character if yes? (net worth is 4Bil isk, 5.9bil SP [should I extract?] and never omega'd)

When equipped with Scan Resolution Dampening scripts and targeting an opponent that is also targeting you, how does the extra time get added if you finish targeting them and apply your damps first? Does it increase their targeting speed to the maximum penalized amount or does it take a percentage based off of how far along they were targeting you? Something else?

For clarity:

You target an enemy with scan resolution scripts installed. The enemy would normally take 4 seconds to target you, but you target them in 2 seconds and apply your Damps. Now the time it will take for the enemy to target you is 40 seconds according to EFT. Because they've already been targeting you for 2 seconds, will it require an additional 38 seconds or 20 seconds before they finish targeting you?

Thanks!

So I want ot go exploring. But if I get podded in a wormhole or lowsec I lose my implants. I can jump into an empty clone to do the exploring in, but then my skill training slows down.

What do you guys do?

Is there a way or a better way to scan down exits to like highsec or lowsec? Or is it just the luck of the draw?

I spent a good amount of time trying to find a way out. Went through about 4 different holes scanned every anom. They led to other holes and during that time I found only one exit and it was null.

Hello, I'm just curious. My control tower says there a moon process worth of tungsten but none of the moons are mine able. What am I missing here? (Yes I survey probed them)

I'm returning to EVE after several months and starting fresh with a new account. I'll be playing as an Alpha, fully aware of its limitations, but I still want to enjoy the game. On my previous account, I spent most of my time in null-sec, and I plan to do the same on this one, focusing on ratting. Is it feasible to Plex my account just by ratting in null-sec? If not, could you let me know what my options are, or if it's simply not possible, feel free to say so. Thanks! o7

Hello!

My friend and I are considering starting our own corp, as we have had a few bad experiences with corp leadership dipping out or generally just not being very useful / fun.

Something we have been considering is trying to create a corp aimed at nullsec, but the entire sov thing is really daunting.

I remember reading a while back about people renting systems inside of another corpus space. Is this still a thing? We don't have many people, but we want to start recruiting, but we obviously need to have a space lined up for null sec before we start telling people we are a null sec corp.

I guess my main question is - is renting still a thing? And if so, how would you approach a corp about renting some of their space, and what would be a fair price for a system or two? And how does it even work mechanically?

Thanks in advance.

TLDR - is renting still a thing, and what's a fair price for a system?

Good day, capsuleers!

I am a former player considering a return to New Eden. I haven't played in 15 years (Apocrypha) so I would essentially be a newbie, for all intents and purposes. What advice might you give someone in my position, if I were to return?

Thanks in advance

My autopilot keeps stopping at every waypoint. Very annoying. I looked on the map screen and theres nonway to change thatvl setting. Wheres the actual menu for that? How do I find it?

PS: Yes I know autopilot is not safe.

So I'm a noob. My favorite ships are dragoon and arbitrator which I use for LVL 2 and 3 missions, low sec ratting and ded sites /anomalies.

Now in the ship tree I see the beautiful pontifex. It looks like a crazy expensive dragoon, but it has command abilities.

What are the command abilities for, and does anyone have a pontifex fitting they could show me? Will a pontifex do everything the dragoon does but like .. better?

Previously played years a go. I purchased Omega for a while to keep learning skills needed to fly a Gila.

I believe I can now fly a Gila as an alpha, but i would love to know what I could equip to the Gila to use as an alpha to complete Abyssal runs please?

Hi I play eve on and off for years and mainly do wh exploration and I’m an amarr pilot. Just wondering if I can do trigvalian space as an alpha? If yes could you direct me to some good videos/tutorials on the matter

It's that time of year again where players from all aspects of the game sign up and run for CSM. But, if you're new to the game you might not be aware of the CSM. So what is it? Why are players running it?

• applications have closed.
• candidates announcement on the 4th.
• campaign period from the 4-14th.
• voting from 17-24.

What is the CSM?

First, what is the CSM? This is short for the Council of Stellar Management. Yes, Eve has a council of players that CCP uses to get feedback, player sentiment, and knowledge from.

What Does the CSM Do?

In a nutshell, once elected to the CSM, players meet once (sometimes more) a week with different teams at CCP to go over new, upcoming and future features.

Sometimes a meeting is so that different devs can get the sentiment of the players from the different CSMs since they generally come from different communities within Eve.

And, of course the CSM can bring ideas or player issues to CCP as well.

Remember, the CSM is an ADVISORY council. Sometimes what they would like to see makes it into the game. Other times, something completely different makes it into the game. CCP is free to take their advice or not.

How Does a Player Get on the CSM?

The following are the requirements to run for CSM:

• alpha or omega account that is at least 2 months old
• can’t be employed or volunteer with CCP
• account must be in good standing
• be over the age of 18
• be willing to submit a passport
• post a thread on the Eve Online forum CSM Section

How Do I Vote for CSM?

Since CSM19 will be voted for in the same way as CSM18, this How to Vote guide is still valid.

TL;dr your account(s) has to have been omega for 60+ days and you can vote for up to 10 candidates per account.

You can read more about the Council of Stellar Management here.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT!

For those of you that know the roots of FUN INC, it was born after the demise of Agony Unleashed. Agony Unleashed was the home of the PVP University, and much like our counterparts in Eve University, Agony Unleashed pioneered the PVP University which saw more than 10,000 graduates from 2006 until 2018.

EVE Rookies (ER) is a community that helps new players get started in the game, offering a more guided introduction for beginners, and is designed to make EVE Online more accessible to newcomers, offering them a structured and friendly way to dive into the game's content.

Between FUN INC & ER we have seen your desire to learn, and to help people prepare themselves for their future in EVE online. For those of you that know FUN INC & ER, we do things differently, and we feel that information should be shared and not hoarded, and to this end I am super pleased to announce the “FUNxER, newbie space programme (NSP).”

Starting 9 October, FUN INC & ER will be rebooting a “LITE version” of the Agony Unleashed PVP university with the delivery of a Basic PVP 101 class, with a fortnightly Basic PVP 101 class, with bitesize specialist classes each month and roams to help introduce all pilots to specialist roles within EVE online, in order that you can find your niche within EVE online.

Additional bitesize classes include fleet interdiction, skirmishing and scout warfare, command destroyer combat, and logistics proficiency. This will be a 16 week rolling cycle with 4 Basic classes, and 1 each of the competence classes being run over the 16 weeks.

In addition to this, there will be adhoc advanced classes on offer, namely combat probing, EWAR specialists, advanced tactics, and fleet command.

This will not just be a newbie roam – this will be augmenting our future.

Watch out for more details and schedule soon!

Hi

If I buy 12 months MCT can I split it between 2 characters on the same account and train them at same time (as well as main) so they both train for 6 months at the same time.

Or can I only train 1 character at a time for 6 months then pause it and then train the other character for 6 months?

To train the 2 characters at the same time would I need to buy 6 months MCT package twice?

Thanks

Hello everyone, first for the short readers: I spent some time in EVE about 3 years ago but really only scratched the tip of the iceberg, did a few agent missions in the mining area and then that was it. But now I feel like getting more involved with EVE again. And yes, I'm overwhelmed.

I read here about players who are fleet leaders, CEOs and whatnot, but I don't know what else, but are there any guides or the like that explain what you have to do?

Are there activities that are particularly good to pursue as a single player? Don't understand me Flasch, I have no problem with social interactions, I just have very irregular time to play.

I would be very grateful for a few tips!

Why can I fit the same ammo into a 125mm turret and a 200mm turret

Hey people,

Ive recently decided to pull out of Nullsov, as Ive grown tired of it, I also can't be bothered doing WH's again. What other options are there where you make a good amount of Isk and don't necessary need to team up with a fleet of people to do anything?

How much control do I have when it comes to how I want to fight? WoW has ranged magic casters, melee warriors with an axe, or rogue ambushers that poison and make you bleed. In Eve, are my options lasers and different lasers?

Participating in NPSI fleets from anywhere around the world is now easier than ever before!

There seems to be so much going on here can someone just explain to me like I’m 5 what is this what’s the point and how does each part I guess work

I'm new to using autocannons, and I have a question about them since I'm considering trying them in PvP for the first time.

I'm planning to go with a brawl fit, but I'm concerned about getting pinned down by fast-moving ships. Would I be able to take out tackle frigates using 425mm AutoCannon IIs on a Hurricane Fleet Issue (hull bonus/role).

I'm also thinking of fitting a Medium Micro Jump Drive as an escape option...if I get warp scramble, I plan to brawl it out. Any advice?

Thank you.

On steam and standalone The game is not launching. Press play then says loading and then just stops. I tried looking online and there were suggestions to clear cache folders but I don’t see/find those folders. I saw someone said go to task manager and end the eve launcher there and then to relaunch. This works maybe 1 out of 40-50 times. Submitted ticket as well no response. Done the full delete in steam and redownload and still nothing. Same with stand alone. Full delete and nothing it won’t load.

Posted this on /eve also but hopefully trying to get some input here as well…..

I am sure this question gets asked alot, but returning player coming back to eve after probably 5/6 years. By no means a vet (1-2million sp)…. Enjoy the more “chill” aspects of the game (industry / ratting / market / etc). Looking for some guidance for potentially a corp (or recommendations) or maybe even aspects of the game i might be missing. I am assuming alot has changed since i last played. Havent really dipped my toe in faction warfare so not sure if thats worth pursuing.

My main issue from when i played last time is alot of the larger nullsec corps have fleet requirements (i get it - its a pvp game), which is tough for me due to IRL. I prefer to log in for a limited time, do a couple of things and log out in small intervals when time allows.

Any thoughts or direction would be helpful. Thanks!
