If you look around on the EVE Uni Wiki / EVE Wiki there are some useful tips on starting off and specific careers as well as fitting Amarrian ships and
If you're going Amarr, I believe you'll be fitting your ships mainly with Lasers and armour tanking modules. Unfortunately, I play Gallente so I can't give you specific advice on fits, though feel free to open up a convo with me in game and ask me any other questions you would like answered.
If you're wondering what kind of skills to train, it really depends on the career you want to settle with and what hobbies you want to embark on.
If you're looking for combat, a good skill set to progress through for Amarr (As well as Gallente and Minmatar as they both benefit greatly from these bonuses) fits are the gunnery skills and the different armour skills.
Other non-specific skill sets that are quite useful are the Navigation skills, the Electronic and Engineering skills (Which boost CPU, power grid and capacitor), the Targeting skills and the Drone skills just to name a few.
There are, whether fortunately or unfortunately, a very large number of skills available that can be useful depending on circumstances, though a few that might be commonly handy are: Salvaging (IV or V is best, though don't rush this if you don't need to, of course) Trade to IV and subsequently the skills "Broker Relations" and "Accounting" (They come in handy when selling items is your main form of income) Social to IV and subsequently "Connections" (I recommend at least to 3) and "Fast Talking" (Again, to 3) to help with relations when doing missions and 'farming' for a jump clone Cybernetics to at least II for implants (You can train higher if you want, though I don't bother because I'm poor)
DISCLAIMER: I'm an idiot, I don't take responsibility for any of my idiocy because I am still an idiot. ^_^
Though my advice may not be the best ever advice and people can probably add a large amount of information to what I've already said, I know this to be true: It doesn't matter your skills, your wallet size, or your reputation, make sure you're having fun in EVE, otherwise you'll become bored and drop it fairly quickly. (It should be obvious, but apparently it isn't (I'm looking at you, Blake Lowe)) |

The Eve University Wiki is highly recommended as your "go to" place for information, especially on ship fits when you are a new player. Just ask in one of the help channels and someone will link it for you.
It's useful for shipfits if you aren't sure where to start. Just enter a ship name e.g. any of the Amarr frigates in the search and pull up the details for that ship. For most ships you will be presented with several different fittings that might be labelled e.g. PVE low skill, PVE higher skill, PvP low skill, etc.

Amarr ships a glorious (obviously) but whilst the other races ships are clearly inferior as they lack ivory and gold, some of the roles their ships fulfill shouldn't be overlooked.
I Would advise that you train all the races weapons systems (drones in particular) and ships to some degree as you may be surprised as to what may grow on you.
Personally I always hated the inkursus but as soon as I started flying its t2 variant the ishkur I fell in love with it and now it's one of my favorites.

Eve University also has a public Help channel, which is very good and well moderated (in other words, they make sure the idiots and trolls are "taken care of"). Lots of helpful veterans hang out there, along with some of the staff from Eve Uni.
And their wiki is quite good. Eve Uni wiki. The search feature is quite good.
The channel is called "E-UNI" and you can find it on your chat channels list window, right under the English Help channel.
They also hold public classes and they invite any and all to get on their voice comms (they use Mumble). If you register with their forums you can get on their "private" Mumble and hang out with them and learn lots, even get in on some activities.
"Xercodo" wrote:Make sure to do all the tutorials and all 5 career agents This is extremely good advice. These will set you up with a number of free skillbooks, ships, and a handful of useful modules, as well as ISK.
One thing to know about Eve Online, there is no "best" since "the best" of anything often depends on how your skilled, your personal experience, what you're planning on doing with ship, your resources, etc. You'll find the answer of "it depends" is common but don't take that as a brush-off. And the right answer for one situation isn't going to be the right answer for another.
Never compare Eve Online to other MMOs you may have experienced. And don't try and go-it-alone, but be cautious of everyone . And don't push-off sound advice just because you don't like the answer .
Most of all, Eve is a sandbox which means what ever you want to do, no matter how good or fail at it you may be, it's up to you, and no one else. Welcome, and have fun! |

Why are you playing Eve?
Nobody can help you unless you identify the direction you are going in already (you're playing Eve - so you took that first step - some people I talk to want me to hand it to them on a silver platter before they do the trial).
Amarr ships are pretty, yes. As long as they stay in the stations. When they are outside of the station they can become war machines. Very deadly, causing huge amounts of drama and stress on other players.
Amarr FW right now is kicking butt. Amarr frigates are small pretty objects that unleash angry sizzling amounts of laser damage. Amarr frigates at level 5 along with support skills would be awesome.
But then I fly rifters at level 5 so I don't need Amarr frigates.
I will look for you on the battlefields!! |

They did help you out there though. Take it as a learning lesson. Trust is most valued commodity in EvE.
So take things with a grain of salt at all times and just have fun with what ever you do. Best way to play.
Now however, to better facilitate your line of questioning the askance of what do you wish to do is relevant.
Do you like to build stuff? Do like being the guy that equips a group before a fight? Do you like being the person that makes sure goods get from point A to point B safely and quickly? Do you like to fight for an ideal? Do you like instances/dungeon style play? (missioning) Do you like hunting bad guys? or just for profit? Do you enjoy ruining someone elses day just because you can and still profit from it?
and the list goes on and on........ Till you have an idea about yourself....no one can fully assist you in anything....becaue they dont know what you want or asking....or how to utilize you and still give you something fun to do. |

Assholes? You ain't seen nothing yet! Wait untill you know what to fly, how to fit and what to do... and then die unceremonially in 5 seconds flat because the real assholes were lying in wait to murder the smacktalker.
That being said, Eve has no set goal. It has people, and it's interesting to see what they do with the sandbox. Observe, find your niche, get good at it, and enjoy your time playing. The last part is most important. I know a great deal of loose cannons that just play Eve without predefined goals, or are happy the corp has goals which create content (read: make PVP happen) as we go along.
My goal in Eve is to surround myself with friends, have a place to call "home", and a few assets to our collective name worth fighting over. I enjoy the emergent, small gang lowsec PVP that comes with the territory, but also the rush of catching freighters and capitals in transit, or sieging so hard it draws 3rd parties into a fight with each other trying to drop us, is highly enjoyable. I also enjoy PVE with the danger of getting caught, or the option of catching an inwary ratter yourself. Hunting PVE Tengus for their shiny mods (and to steal their sites) is also fun. Basicly, I enjoy lowsec life, and don't make matters more complex then just doing **** in lowsec.
I even build stuff nowadays! Pirate ships. And I might do some industrial stuff with rigs soon, just because I have the skills and it would save me lots of ISK over time. |

Here, that's already a small improvement.
For combat missions (the PVE kind), just pick a ship / setup you like and run missions for any agent you like.
"ship progression" for missions:
Level 1 - Frigates / Destroyers Level 2 - Destroyers / Cruisers Level 3 - Cruisers / Battlecruisers Level 4 - BC / Battleship OR T3 cruiser
Another goal you could work towards it doing Incursions. These are fleet-sized PvE encounters but do require T2 cruisers or a proper skilled (pirate) battleship.
What is even better then seeing NPCs die...see other players die.
For that, just have a look at:
* RvB * Faction Warfare * NPSI fleets (public fleets that will take on nearly everybody).

Yeah and Nah.
It really depends, I've heard people who loved E-Uni and it really helped them. Others hated it, their rules and how many hoops they had to jump through to even get through the recruitment part.
So, it's 2 sides to the medallion, as with everything.
And as with general in relation to should I join corp "x". We really can't tell, as the fit between you and a corp is something personal.
Some corp might works for you but it won't for me. Some corp will be the perfect fit for me but you will hate it.
This is also the case for E-Uni, but as a teaching institute, they are great. The amount of knowledge you can gather from E-Uni is huge.

Re Eve Uni;
Ralph - not sure what you mean by "stretched"?
Eve Uni is definitely a good group to look at getting into. Yes, their recruitment process is somewhat intimidating, especially for newer players, but it's more of a case of their popularity over the number of recruiters they have active. They have 24 recruiters listed of which some are management-level types, but realistically perhaps 15 of them are fairly active in the job.
They have to go through a few checks, similar to many other larger player corps, so all the work that needs to be done for that, and then you get an interview... well, it can take days. Historically they've had backlogs running into several weeks.
They do have some rules, but they really aren't that bad. Mainly just about how to act with each other, rules of engagement, and some minor internal stuff that may seem silly or archaic to outsiders. They really have shed a lot of the old, archaic rules.
The whole point of Eve Uni is that you join for a time, learn some stuff, make some contacts, and then move on, although it looks like a lot do stay around. It's a huge advantage being able to count on a couple of hundred active players at any given time. And they cover a lot of different areas of the game.
Eve Uni does suffer from an overly bureaucratic set-up and their directors are laughably absent from the game a lot, but the managers are a good bunch. For some, their style of things and their notorious slowness at certain things is a real turn-off, and for others their structure and (very light) regimentation is very desirable.
Of course you can learn most of what they offer without being in their corp/alliance as all their classes are public and they do allow outsiders to join them on fleets and PvE stuff. The one thing you'd really miss-out on is really getting the contacts and camaraderie.
Re RvB;
good bunch of pilots, two eternally at-war alliances/corps with each other so you can get your fill of PvP and blow up a lot, and have fun doing it. I've seen them tangle with Eve Uni in a few wars and these guys bring the fights, which everyone loves.
I don't really know too much else about them such as rules and stuff, but they do have some, that much I know. |

The requirement of having a pulse to join Brave Newbies Inc. was removed some time ago, though other BRAVE alliance corps may have stricter recruitment policies.
Red Republic and Blue Federation are similar.
All of these (BNI, RvB) are more "learn by exploding" than by formal structured lessons of EVE-Uni.
EVE-Uni is worth the time and effort of joining, if you are the type of pilot that needs or prefers this style of education / gameplay. |

In my opinion you should join FW and learn the mechanics. Plenty of people to taunt and pick fights with there. And you get a very decent reward for your time there. But you gotta learn the mechanics. |

It does happen on occasion, usually it's the spais and alts, or sometimes someone just isn't compatible. It's extremely rare for a new player to get rejected, and more often than not, it may be technical issue (standings with either of our jump clone corps, for example) and often those can be corrected.
In my time involved with Uni recruitment (Jan 2011 through Aug 2014) both as a recruiter and eventual director, our requirements have evolved to where we're very open and accepting even of more experienced players.
One thing I did notice is that for those who applied and did have something missing from their application it was often that they would just "give up" on the process, for example, not providing the correct API mask we need (we do provide all the details and a link to get it set up properly), and we'd just never hear from them again. And as Celine and Ralph have mentioned, just due to how popular we are and limited number of recruiting staff (they do volunteer their game-time to do the job) the process can seem long and frustrating to some. It has gotten a lot better over the years.
In short, it is rather difficult to get rejected by E-UNI, hehe.
To the more general point, there are lots of great corps out there to assist new players so this shouldn't be about E-UNI alone. We welcome all to our public help channel "E-UNI" in game (no outside recruitment there please) and anyone can attend our classes and join us on our Mumble voice comms. You don't have to be a member for a lot of our services, although as mentioned above, registration is required to access the private Mumble server (classes occur on our public Mumble server).
RvB is a really good bunch and you can't go wrong with them for PvP stuff.
Brave is also very popular and very active. They require a full API check and I don't know their process beyond that. They're one of the biggest organizations out there.
There are several active Factional Warfare groups, too, if you're interested in both PvP and the FW rewards.

An API key is simply benign pilot and/or corp information. There is no personal information involved at all. No one can access your account, or your in-game assets. They can only read what the API mask will provide them.
Most larger and corps worth being part of will ask for some form of API, whether it's a full API or select information.
They use this to check information for their own security. Any corp accepting pilots in that don't perform background checks including an API check of some form are just asking for trouble, and those corps probably aren't worth being in.
This is from the page where you create API keys:
Quote:What is an API key? What do I use it for?
The API key is a private code that identifies your account and allows third party programs and web sites to access information about your characters and corporations. Using this data, such utilities can improve your EVE experience by providing useful functionality such as wallet exports, skill training notifications, and other tools.
Is this safe? Can someone steal my account?
It is safe to provide your API key to applications and web sites as long as you are prepared to allow the application or web site to see your character and corporation information. You can specify which information is accessible for each customizable API key.
Sharing an API key does NOT give people access to your account while sharing your account password would. Therein lies the whole purpose of API keys. An API key only allows the recipient to view your character and corporation data but gives them NO control over it. They are NOT able to log in to the game or post on the forums with the API information. No part of the API key information is in any way generated from your account password - there is no way to calculate your password using this information.
This is the only safe way to give programs and web sites access to your data. Do not give out your account username or password to any person, program, or web site. Please keep in mind that doing so is a violation of the EULA and can lead to account termination.
I still don't like it.
If you are not certain that the web site or program asking for your API key is safe, please do not give it to them! You are responsible for any usage of the information obtained by using your API keys.
I gave someone my API key and now I want them to stop using it!
If you believe that someone is misusing your API key, you can delete it from the list above or simply change the Verification Code. Please note that all programs and web sites that are using your old API key information will no longer be able to access your data unless you provide them with the updated info or a new API key.
You can view API activity on your account by using the API Access Log. If you believe someone is misusing one of your API keys, please change the Verification Code or delete the API key from the list above.
Several of the very useful third party tools such as EVEMon, PyFa, Eve Fitting Tool, and such use API keys to help you get the most out of those very useful tools.
Of course you don't have to provide any corp recruiter/system any API key at all. You just won't get into any of them that ask for the information. |

They do. So I guess you'll just have to count all those off your "probable/possible" list of corps to try for. |

Well. API is only a read only thing.
But if you really dont want to give it out. Good luck in the NPC corps or in a ****** player corps filled with spies and awoxers. 99.99% of the corps ask for a full API or one with limited information. It is basically the same as the background check a real company does when you apply for a job (here they usually ask for proof of good conduct, which basically means that you have no criminal record).
now that I think of it.
Big chance you might be one too if you are that afraid to give an API.

Most places worth being in do.
There are corps that dont do it, they usually exist for less then 6 months cause they are destroyed from the inside out. Be through Awoxing, spies & wardecs or general theft.

Nope.
It is a code that they can use to get READ ONLY access to your account.
Things like:
What skills have you trained. what is your skillqueue what and where are your assets. who did you mail in game. who do you have added to your contacts. How much ISK is in your wallet. what and with who have you been trading stuff througj the market / contract. What other characters do you have on the account.
All kinds of things like that, but it depends what you enable and what they require to see.

Api is look only and I would ha 've serious reservations about joining a group that didn't ask for one, I have loads of stuff and I would rather loose it to my own incomitance than some blow-in just taking it from me when I had my guard down.
Anyone with something to lose will likely feel the same as in eve, once it's gone, it's gone.
