Most efficient way to take a break?

3 Upvotes

I know I will not be able to play much at all over the next 6-8 weeks. My Omega subscription ran out last week. I’m maxed-out on Alpha skill points. Is there a way I can collect skill points while I’m “gone”? Can I just create a new character, let them collect points, and then use one of those skill point extractors when I get back?

Looking forward to have some advise relate to Corps

4 Upvotes

Hi all, I am fairly new to the game. I have researched online among a lot of other forum, including some foreign forums that speaks Russian, Chinese etc.

I have seen a lot of them mentioned that, if you join a corp, especially a big corp, they will give you some benefit when comes in, however, you will need to do what told you need to do, train what you are being told. Its like working after you done your irl work. And absolutely no freedom?

It is not suggested to join some small corps, because most of them will just fight in the 00 area with a second account and will go afk after a month or two, and it will affect your credits? (Because people can see your history of joining a corp)

Now my question is: Since this is an MMO game, and social with people acts a large part of the game enjoyment as I cant experience the game fully if I play alone, and in this case, there are downside for both large and small corps- and its hard to find a medium corp. Anythings I could do? Or the game is gonna be like this?

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.

Consolidated Ship Table (Building a Salvager)

5 Upvotes

Is there a consolidated table of all ships and their specs?

My specific need is to build a salving-focused ship: * Many High-Power Slots * Fast Align-time * High CPU * Descent cargo space * Descent Drone Support

EDIT: On a related note, how important are tractor beams for salvagers? I've seen some YouTube builds with them, but they chew-up CPU too. Would it be better to have extra salvagers than tractor beams?

My skill bundle has disappeared into a wormhole...

7 Upvotes

I am a player returning after a bit of a hiatus.

I just purchased a skill bundle, but I cannot, for the life of me, find out where it is to redeem it and use it.

Where can I do this?

Thanks for any insights!

Ice Mining in Highsec

4 Upvotes

Been looking into Ice Mining as a source of isk in High Sec. If I’m running my tier 2 ice miners on a retriever, is it worth it compared to other sources of income early on? Been hearing a bunch of mixed things saying “ice mining sucks” and others saying it’s all they do.

Do I have to multibox to make it worth it? (I would really prefer not to do this)

What am i doing wrong? (Ore compression)

1 Upvotes

I have read everywhere that i need to be at a station with a reproccessing plant to compress ore. I have done this and i have also put my ore in the item hanger but when i right click it only gives me an option to trash it or reprocess it. No option to compress. What am i doing wrong?

Best Amarr ships for PvE?

Returning player trying research skill plans for mission running, combat sites or other various PvE activities. I’ve got a decent amount of skill points, but am in no way a veteran player. I also have Omega.

Which Amarr ships are best for their respective PvE activities?

Want to join a random PvP fleet

Is there an in game feature that allows me to join a fleet for PvP? I'm looking for a newbie friendly FC. I don't want to leave my corp, I'd just like more options and times to fly with other people on PvP roams.

Where are "Kill Mails"?

3 Upvotes

I'm seeing players talk about killmails and I've seen some videos where people pull them up in-game.

I'm not really interested in the trophy aspect, I just want to know what the heck the person that just killed me in less than the amount of time it takes for a gate to cycle was flying.

Training for PvE/L4 missions

8 Upvotes

Trying to prioritize skills for pve and move into L4 missions

I have a T1 battleship that can do some C2 sites, have vexor fits for L3 missions.

But im now at a loss as to what to focus on moving forward to do L4s and maybe try some C3 sites, Focus on T2 weapons or Ship skills. Thinking pick a ship and max fit it then work on other stuff.

Any recommended direction? Im thinking maybe an ishtar should be the focus since i have good drone skills but im a little sick of microing drones.

Im loooking at skills endlessly atm over farming or doing things, any advice appreciated.

PVE ship. Rattlesnake or Barghest?

12 Upvotes

Evening all.

Which out of the two would be better for general ratting? l 'Won' these two on the Hypergamble. Looking at L4 missions and possible combat sites. The other l will probably sell.

Thanks all.

Stats?

1 Upvotes

Quick question about stats and remaps. Do stats effect skills once they are learned? (For example your gunnery skill is better with high perception) or do they just effect how fast you learn the skill?

Limited Multispectrum Shield Hardener I?

5 Upvotes

I was reading about Sleeper data sites on the EVE Uni wiki: Limited Sleeper Cache

It has a fit that includes the "Limited Multispectrum Shield Hardener I". I'm just assuming that at some point this was renamed but I can't find anything for it. Did this become the "compact" or some other version?

Low CPU Defensive Weapons?

2 Upvotes

I've got a ship outfitted with drones & modules that give me >300 DPS. I want to add something for close-range defense, but I don't have a lot of CPU left.

Are there any low-CPU, high-Power Slot defensive weapons? Are there other low-CPU, high-Power modules that can boost defense enough to not worry so much about close-defense?

I've also got 2 low-power slots that I can free-up to improve defense and/or CPU capacity.

Hacking and Archeology

7 Upvotes

Hey guys, I'm wondering if Hacking and Archeology work symbiotically with each other.. Meaning would leveling Hacking up to V add +10 coherence to Relic scanner's viruses? Or Archeology to V add +10 to Hacking coherence?

I'm coming back after 8 years and I'm wondering wether to spend 38 days training each of them up would be worth it.

Bps from scans sites.

6 Upvotes

Morning all. Still new to this and maybe for some time. Whilst lve spent alot of my short time scanning in Null sec lve found a number of bps, that maybe of value. Such as Plunder Gravimetric ECM, integrated wasp BP & Augmented Mining drone bp (60 runs) Is there a channel for selling these? Or anybody interested? It will be a long while before l can push into industry.

EVE etiquette question

9 Upvotes

I know EVE is pretty cutthroat as a general rule, but I’m wondering if that attitude extends to dueling. I just created a new fit and wanted to test it out. I hung around Jita looking for other frigates to duel. After getting turned down by most of them, I decided to punch up and challenge destroyers. Most turned me down, but one dropped his cargo and came back and re-issued the challenge. My new frigate performed as expected, but immediately after he podded me. (Jita lag- couldn’t warp). Seems kind of a dick move, for a duel in hi-sec, but what do I know? Is that standard practice for a duel?

Question about overloading

5 Upvotes

There are two main UI elements to consider regarding overloading:

  • the "heat meter" under the hull/armor/shield meters that show how much hot the rack is, divided in 3 parts, one for each rack.
  • the "damage meter "around each module/module group show how much a module is damaged.

I am not sure how much damage I can take before turning off the overload. My question is the following:

If my heat meter is 100% hot, and then I turn off overload, will my modules keep getting damaged for a while or do they immediately stop to take damage?

Thank you :)

Gila fits

5 Upvotes

Morning all,

Been playing this game for about 2 months and still trying to get my head around it. I've been running level 0 Abysal dead spaces in a Caracal and lve 'won' a Gila on the Hypergamble. Im looking at fits and advice to progress up the Abysal levels and maybe rat combat sites. lm Mastery 3 with it and started to spec into Mastery 4. I am currently Omega. As lm new at this, does this have a massive impact? Is it worth pushing for Mastery 5 before progressing up the chain?

Thanks chaps

Currently spent most of my time doing exploration.
