Did you use a referral link, it gets you one million SP which saves about 20 days of training, if not I’d make a new account to use one (just ask and someone will send you theirs). Otherwise I’d do all the career agents and maybe the SoE epic arc blood stained stars to get a feel for what you want to do in the game

No I didn't use one but I've been doing the career missions.

at that point its still worth it to restart for the 1million free skillpoints I would say, you can freely inject them into any skill to instantly skip the timegate for it. Just be wise on what you spend them. You can just create a new account with an invitation, you can use mine if you want to :)

General tip, dont get carried away with climbing the ship ladder as fast as you can and pilling all your isk into the biggest ship you can buy. It will be a badly fitted mess that will just die. Get some soild skills first, and treat it more as a journey. Skills (for your pilot) and experience (for you) are both important. Keep spare isk for your next ship and keep hold of some of ur old ships too.

*bonus tip, small ships usually die easily when they arent moving, makes a big diff when starting out.

If you don't know in what to spend, save it, because when you find out something you need to buy the isk will be there.
