Hi guys. Ive returned to eve today. Im a 33mill sp pirate who has returned to eve after the longest hiatus i was never sure if id come back! Before i left i was on the path to righteousness managing to get my sec stats from -10 to -7.7 ratting in belts and i want to continue this so i can get back into hisec and sort out some long term goals. Im strictly specialised in gallente from frigs upto bs including hacs. I have 350 mill in the bank and a mining alt who im not resubbing just yet and a mammoth pilot on this account so i could get my gear from hisec into low. My corp seems to have vanished as im struggling to find any trace of them. Basically guys ive jumped into game with no direction, at a total loss and im not sure were to even start. I jumped into a minmitar outpost and killed and npc for what reason i dont know and decided to go ratting in some belts to refamilarise myself with basic combat. Im currently training covert ops but i seem to recall that was in relation to a corp requirement/op at the time. I thought id posted this in here because i feel like a new citz again. Give me a clue guys, where do i go from here, what i have missed!! Ive read the dev blogs but they dont really explain much when it comes to these things happening in game. Zzzz ive gone on enough now...all help appreciated. Phil. |

the tags that will improve your standing can be farmed in lowsec. they drop from new belt rats called Clone Soldier *something* (for example 'Angel Clone Soldier Recruiter'). you can comfortably farm them in a cheap T1 cruiser like, say, a vexor and while you're at it also improve your security status directly.
aside from that, most T1 ships from frigate to battleship are now decently balanced so that you can pick almost any hull and be successful as long as you play to its strengths. depending on how long you have been gone, you may have missed wormhole space, incursions, planetary interaction, the faction warfare revamp (it's actually popular now) and people losing supercarriers worth hundreds of billions in 0.0...
edit: also, DUST

Aww thanks Gaellia and thank you guys for the suggestions. I left when PI was in its infancy and i did dabble in it and enjoyed what i was doing to an extent but i figured it wasnt for me. I love the idea of setting up a pos in W space or possibly joining a WH corp...do they exist? I think i'll take the suggestion of looking for a corp in recruitment first and go from there. I really need to get stuck into my sec status by hunting for the sec tags, buying them would be easier but i dont think i should be reliquished of my sins with a slap on the wrist :p any more suggestions by all means keep them coming. Thanks to those who have responded all ready. Phil |

Also interesting to know is the timer in between sec status ticks has been brought back to 5 minutes. Find youself a nice anomaly with some Battleship rats in it. Kill one every 5 minutes. Rat for clone tags in those 5 minutes.
Wormhole corps definately exist, I've lived in one for a couple of months myself and it can be lots of fun with the right crew. You'll need active buddies tho, it's boring to solo and nigh-impossible to solo any content in higher class wormholes. Logistics are a challenge, but it's as punishing as you make it yourself. I've found C2 wormholes to be a good start for anyone new to Wspace.
Lowsec / piracy is still alive and kicking, but industrials have been buffed considerably. So don't be surprised if they start to fight back or have a ton of warp stabs nowadays. PI is functional, in the next update the hisec POCO's will be conquerable by players. Also, a couple of deployables will be released, one of them being a mini-cyno jammer. You can see where this goes.
All in all these are interesting times, welcome back. |

they do in fact exist and thrive. arguably, w-space is more populated than 0.0 nowadays. sleeper anomalies provide significant income (i have heard numbers of up to 500m per hour per character) if you have the manpower and the logistics to run them efficiently. many PvP oriented players join wormhole corps to be able to quickly farm some ISK and then invest it into a shiny proteus which they then proceed to wreck in a random goodfight with their neighbors.
