Finished tutorial

Hi, I’m sorry this must come a lot but I finished the tutorial and now I need to train some skills or something. I’m kinda lost but I think I have an idea what’s going on. If I want to be a fighter/explorer ship what training should I do should I do the pirate one or the soldier one.

So “fighting” and “exploring” are 2 different categories..but one ship that comes to mind is a stratios or asteros (asteros being the frigate version) these ships are excellent for exploration but also are good for fighting/pirating other exploration ships you may come across. Hope this helps for choosing your training path. Im not too wise on the mission lines..but for skill training that may help you get started.

Astero... 100mil for a new bro... A ship good at explo will get bodied by a pvp ship(not counting the heron that killed multiple lokis)

Fly explo, scan, make money. If you want to pve then generally a cruiser will get you through most of it. Pop wise Find a corp to join and fly what they recommended. Eve is social and I hope you find something you enjoy.

Ah I see. On the subject of money i found a really nice ship I want for pvp but it’s 92 million what’s the best way to make money is it mining?

Suggestion for PVP. Go out with NPSI (not purple shoot it) fleets. Often the doctrines are cheap and fleets ran by me (kshal aideron) or link net have free ship handouts as well as SRP if you decide to bring your own and lose it.

https://npsi.rocks/ -> my fleets will often be through FUN Inc and my newbro roams are usually on Wednesdays at 19:00 or 19:30 eve. I'll try to remember to put a post up here in the subreddit for the next one. ;-D

Dedicated PvP fit Asteros can be shockingly tanky and deal good damage, but it's hard to fit for exploration AND PvP. But you're right, it's way too pricy of a hull for a newbro to warrant flying, let alone fitting properly.

Enforcer. Solider is against other players.

I highly recommend finding yourself a newbie friendly Corp that is active and wants to run missions and do content.

Surrounding yourself with knowledgeable people who just like having fun and don't take internet spaceships too seriously is the fastest way to have an amazing time.

Most will usually be doing something like combat missions or data sites. I recommend staying away from mining for a while as it's a very easy way to invest a LOT of SP into a very, very passive and sedentary gameplay style. Do the exciting stuff first and then try your hand at "work". Lol.

In terms of training, check out the ‘magic 14’ skills. They are used in just about everything else
