I'm really intersted in making some good isk through FW but i dont really want to hurt my standings too badly with any faction (except pirate factions). I've joined Faction Warfare twice now, each time for one evening and ran 3 or 4 plexes while looking for PvP. The second time wasn't as successful as the first in that I lost 3 ships without even coming close to a kill. But I still ended the evening with enough LP to buy another Vexor Navy Issue BPC, which worked so well last time, I decided to do it again.
Each time I joined the Gallente Militia (On my 10 day old main, not this char). I've got Diplomacy III and Connections III trained. Currently I have 2.5 derived standing with Gallante and 0.37 derived standing with Caldari. Thus it hasn't ruined my Caldari standing too bad atm.
It has occurred to me that next time I should join the Caldari Militia to balance things out and in fact that would be better for me on a number of counts. Closer to Jita and I'm now trying out RvB which is located in Caldari space. Initially I had thought that a Gallante character could only join the Gallante militia, but it turns out that you just need a positive derived standing and you can join any militia. So when I next need some cash that is what I intend to do. |

you can do level 2s in a well-fitted destroyer
also why are you missioning in low sec? If you want to mission in low sec you need to learn how to use d-scan and watch local like a hawk. |

I wasn't
I'd found some cosmic anomaly combat sites that where too powerful for my scanning destroyer so I got my cruiser to take them out. But the player jumped me as I was leaving the gate. Fleed to an asteroid belt to escape but he followed me there and jammed my warp drive. Was able to see off a crusier he called up in support but he keep hitting me with a low firing but high power weapon. Ultimately ran my capacitor out with trying to keep my shields and armour up while my light missiles couldn't take down his battleship armour quickly enough.
Wasn't podded but he did fire off a few shots. Added a 100000 ISK bounty to his 299m one. And I'm still bitter about losing the craft. |

level 1 secuirty missions only pay so much so any average mission would probadly pay overall 100000 ISK.
Buying & selling doesn't seem to be worth it as all buyers are buying at less than local sellers.
In truth mining seems to be my most profitable activity, take my vulture to a 0.6 system with some drone for cover, find some scordite and mine until my ore hold is full. Then I go reprocess it and sell it. Can make about 1m ISK an hour.
Am learning to get a mining barge to increase speed and hold size. Your problem: You went straight into the solo gameplay mode as opposed to the OP, opting for boring and low fun activities such as mining and mission running.
The cause: You're still stuck in structured MMO mode, where to progress you do 'quests' (missions) or farm resources (mining). Unlearn those bad habits, think of something you actually enjoy doing and find out if you can make money doing said thing.
Your solution: Read what the OP has done. Try to emulate that if you can't think of something different to what the OP has done.
How to do it: Contact the OP, who knows he/she/it may be nice enough to give you a few tips or show you how to do it properly
EDIT: STOP GRINDING FOR YOUR ISK IF IT'S SOMETHING YOU DON'T ENJOY DOING |

this is what will happen if you go into low sec unprepared.
warping to an asteroid belt at 0 was your second mistake and understandable for a new player since all you can think about is getting away.
Do a little research next time and you will be ok. In the meantime if you can afford a cruiser to run level 2 missions in high security space to get some money back it's fairly safe relative to low sec, just make sure you're careful in missions to not get blown up by NPCs |

1. Learn to use the Dscan + local. They are your best friends in lowsec 2. Learn to fit your ships. Unfortunately, optimal PVE ships+fittings are horribad at PVP and most likely vice versa. Don't dual tank. 3. If you can't afford to lose it (emotionally), don't undock in it. |

Why is it always the small losses that enrage people? I guess the only question would be...why are you bitter about it? You made mistakes and took your lumps. If you look at that as an unbearable blow rather than a learning experience I would play something else that has no loss penalty. |

1. Shield OR Armor tank. Not both, in case of the Caracal, it would have been shield. Any way, a PvE fitted ship doesn't stand a chance against a PvP fitted ship for 99% of the times. the last 1% is when you are being attacked by something that shouldn't attack you or by someone who doesn't know what he is doing and still learning.
2. Common mistake and don't blame a new player for not knowing what ship is what. Are you in need of some nice chat? Are you new and want some help? Look no further and join: Crazy Dutch Guy |

I did run most lvl 2s in a Destroyer before I could fly a Cruiser, but some of that was rather painful. Lvl 2 missions vary quite a bit in difficulty, from some scouting missions that can be done in a shuttle to things like the Blockade or Recon. I only finished the Blockade (Serpentis) because I'm stubborn. OTOH because it is challenging and you run a real risk of losing your ship in some of these missions it'll actually teach you a few things about flying.
While running the same missions a few weeks later in a Cruiser was much more effective, but pretty boring.

I'm a newbie as well, and had a similar reaction at first to trading in EVE. But I realized my problem was that I was approaching it like I had learned in other MMOs.
The problem is that you can't approach the market in EVE like you might in other MMOs. In other MMOs, "playing the market" is usually finding something that somebody is selling for a low price, buying it, and selling it yourself for a higher price. EVE doesn't work that way. So initially I looked at it the wrong way. I was looking for items that I could buy from a sell order (the top pane) and sell to a buy order (the bottom pane). But since the buy orders are always lower than the sell orders, there was no way to make money like this.
In EVE, when you want to buy goods that you are going to turn around and sell, you don't go and buy stuff directly from the market (in the sell order pane). You place a buy order saying you would like to buy an item for X price and then you wait until it is fulfilled. Once it is fulfilled, then you turn around and sell it.
Moreso, it is always the highest-priced buy order that gets fulfilled, and it is always the lowest-priced sell order that is purchased from (hence the "$0.01 ISK PvP market game" where people are always becoming the top or bottom order).
Here's a good post that explains the two-tier market system in EVE. Quote from the article:
ISK Watch Article wrote:
The problem is that most new players do not understand the market system. They are used to video games that tell you that you can buy item x here immediately, haul it to station 7, and sell item x at a profit. This is NOT trading in Eve-Online. Eve Online uses a two tier market system and that is the first thing any trader needs to understand.
Eve-Online uses a complicated yet simple broker system for trading that involves buy and sell orders. Real players tell a imaginary broker in the game that they want to buy item x for 6 isk, and that broker puts that up on the market for everyone to see. This becomes the buy order. Selling an item works the same way. A player tells the imaginary broker they want to sell item x for 9 isk, and he lists it for everyone to see as a sell order.
There is obviously a gap between the sell and buy order prices, and a trader attempts to use that to their advantage. A savvy trader will come along and put up a buy order for 6.01isk; the .01isk extra that they are willing to pay will make that order the first one filled. The highest order is always the first one filled when someone comes along and decides they do not wait. Instead of putting up a sell order and waiting for another player to buy it; they might just sell it to the trader for 6.01 isk.
Once you grasp that, it becomes much more clear how to make profit from trading. You can find many good resources on trading at the EVE University Wiki as well.
EDIT: Oh, and while I'm at it. If you are new to trading, you probably don't want to start at the Jita trade hub. The margins there are very small, the market is _very_ competitive, and there are LOTS of traders stationed there. It is better to find a smaller trade hub, or even a mission hub, and get started building up your bank-roll there. |

Don't want to dissuade you from just jumping in, but it's also good to research and understand what items may sell and what items may not. Here's a good link on the EVE University Wiki on how to identify potential items to trade.
And if you are going to do any cross-station hauling, here's a link on using EVE-Central to haul profitably.
One of the keys is being able to interpret the market history of an item on how that item is used. For instance, if you try to offload skill books in the beginner areas that beginners themselves get for free, they are not going to sell very well. Mission hubs, on the other, are great to have low buy orders for those items that players get when they are running missions and want to simply offload really quick before running more missions. Buy those, haul to a trade hub, sell, profit :).
Just like many other things in EVE (ever heard the phrase "Excel spreadsheet in space?"), doing research and spending time learning will help you out in the long-run.
With your current experiences as far as losec goes, I would just hate to see you rush in to trading, be unsuccessful, get frustrated, and give up. For all I know, trading will not really be your thing (a lot of looking at charts/tables and lots of research to be pretty successful). So if you don't enjoy, don't force yourself to do it :). |

To add to the trading advice, speaking from my limited experience, I'd very much rather have a lower margin but a higher volume of goods than the opposite. Something that gives you a 300% profit margin is relatively worthless if you can only sell 1 or 2 per day, as opposed to something with a 20% margin that you can easily liquidate in an hour. Always consider the trade volume before making a decision on what to trade. |

I am a newbie too, just a week+ old only, subscribed for a whole year though LOL if i eventually to have enough money to buy plex, i will gift them to one of my real life friends who can't afford to pay to play eve online (He is a real lover of sandbox) In this week, i have gained 36M, which is not much because i seldom invest in buying ships and equipments, i just save isk. I kept running level one mission with a destroyer, because i want the corp standing so i can have a clone in JITA, but it was so boring! Those NPC is like one hit by me and with enough salvaging, i can have 1M back each hour
About PVP, i tried to join FW, but don't laugh at me, I don't even know what DSCAN and star map can help in PVP..... so i just bumped in a system with 30+ enemy player camping and got blasted LOL and after some reading about what FW really is, i then find i don't know how to fit a ship for PVP, not even PVE
The poster record that he read alot before start, and i wonder where are those articles. Searching the internet for information about a game is difficult without any lead
Some suggestions on what i should read, or what you already read before you start the game? |

level 1 secuirty missions only pay so much so any average mission would probadly pay overall 100000 ISK. You only need to do one or two level 1 missions if you train Connections 3, then you can move on to level 2.
If you've done the Sisters of EVE arc, Blood-Stained Stars, you might even have 1.0 faction standing, and can do level 2 missions for any corp in that faction. Connections skill also raises faction standing.
Even 0.001 standing with Connections 3 becomes 1.20 |

You, sir, are on a path to greatness in EVE.
If you want more startup capital, I highly, highly recommend you find a corp that will accept you that does highsec mission running and highsec mining ops. Then fit out a battlecruiser with multiple warp disruptors (the long range ones, not the short range scramblers) and show up to a corp op that has lots of expensive ships, blow one or two up, and ransom the rest.
You can get a damn nice amount of ISK this way, which you can then put to work for you in various ways that you are certainly intelligent enough to figure out.
An enemy is just a friend that you stab in the front. |

Searching the internet for information about a game is difficult without any lead Some suggestions on what i should read, or what you already read before you start the game? 1. Those missions, stop running level 1's, train up some social skills and you can probably skip straight through to level 2. Alternatively, if you can salvage, you can ask mission runners in hubs if they need a salvager. If they're willing to fleet up with you, the standings rewards from them turning in their missions will give you a quick boost, plus the salvaging will net you a lot of iskies.
2. As a new player, try not to diversify your skills by too much. A couple of skills here and there for more utility is great, but if you're going down the PVP path, it's better for a newbie to specialize in a ship + fitting and be on a competitive level earlier.,
3. You can learn PVP tips by watching videos with commentaries, reading up pirating guides etc.
4. Avoid high traffic systems unless you're specifically fitted and looking to take them on. You can find further information in your starmap and filter by number of kills/pod kills/ships in space tec.
5. Unfortunately the information is spread out all over the internet. The forums are a good place to start (check the relevant subforums, not general discussion). A better forum search tool, which also includes the 'old' forums (pre-2011?) is using http://www.eve-search.com. Google is also your friend, be sure to include EVE in your search terms. Take advice from Battleclinic if you stumble upon it with a grain of salt. Another great forum to search is scrapheap challenge (google it).

I'm a new player, a *very* new player, and I have found mining to be both enjoyable and profitable. Though I think the enjoyment comes from having played minecraft as long as I have. Just because it isn't the most profitable doesn't mean it can't be fun to some, I understand that many, if not most, of the veterans dislike miners for various reasons, the one that I see most often is the whole staying in high-sec so they don't get blown to hell as often. I agree with them to an extent, my case as an example: I chose to be a miner because I enjoy the monotony to an extent (there's that word again) though I actually find losing in PvP to be the best way to learn things... I'm just not ready to dive in head first. I keep seeing the acronym HTFU... Which I believe stands for Harden The **** Up yes? and I agree completely with the sentiment.
I actually didn't know a bloody thing about the orders, both buy and sell. I mine as much as I can, stockpile about half for personal use at later stages in my time as a pilot, and the rest gets sold. I haven't risked going anywhere lower than a security rating of 0.8. I'm not exactly sold on the trading thing but, I do find this to be helpful in the extreme. (so have a free bump so others can see this) |

I'm about 3 weeks in and have mined a bit, but can only take so much before relaxing becomes boring. Don't be scared of traveling below .8 all the way down to .5. I've hauled my ore to Jita a few times already and it's not a problem if you're awake and don't auto-pilot or go afk while en route. Prices are better there for sellers.
Now that I've got some isk and sp I've invested on a cruiser for missions and put some salvage drones in there to clean up my mess after fights for some extra isk. Having a lot of fun with this method. Next up will be exploration once I can support a cloaking vessel. End game will be PvP once I can support frequent ship losses. |

I brought plex and i would not say i am lazy or self entitled in fact the hard nature of the game drew me in, i just did not want to mine high sec, everyone said it makes you wana quit playing, and knowing nothing at the time did not think i would of lasted 3 seconds in FW.
knowing what i know now i won't ever buy plex again, there is no need too, but when i signed up i figured it would take months to get the skills to earn that sort of cash, how wrong i was. got more balls then me, if it was not for your post god knows how long before i gave fw a go. |

The only thing funnier than OP claiming to be a total new player is everyone else including the CSM falling all over themselves and drinking the coolaid and reveling in the mass halucination that they have found their super noob who has taken to be an instant success story via forum warriorism and massive amouunts of time spent reading up and preparing for a game prior to ever even installing it i suppose.
Not a single soul has taken the time to think for themselves to realize that the OP is full of eve lingo that no new player could or should know.
+1 for OP trolling you all, -1 for the rest of you.
P.S. Anyone want to buy JITA 4-4. I'm quitting the game and want to sell the station that i built there. Please send an advance of 250 Billion isk and i'll transfer ownership upon the 2 weeks it takes to clear transactions of that size. |

Most likely, you wont. Did anyone mention to you that you will be outclassed in the support skills something horribly. Just an FYI as you have no clue how FW works, they may be waiting on you at zero on the other end of the acceloration gate and have you taclked and dead in an assault frig before you even have time to go "Oh @#$!".
Make sure you get with some experienced players so you don't make the mistake of believing that pvp in this game is like the wild west where you pull out the pistols and let lead fly. It can work that way, but you can find that if you don't know the game mechanics it may work against you. |
