Wet Ferret	Posted - 2008.02.08 07:09:00 - [31] Originally by: Zeba Originally by: Cipher7 Get a set of +3 implants. Buy 90 day GTC with isk. Spend 2 months training Learnings while you play another game. Come back and enjoy. 2 months? Wtf it only took me a bit over a week to get 4/4 on my learnings with a set of +3 on my latest alt and thats losing a whole day to a short trip and forgetfulness in setting a long skill. The new rolls and 800k sp make starting Eve a snap. He remembers back in the day when advanced learning skills required lvl 5 in their prereqs (and so do I )
Druadan Institute of Fungineering	Posted - 2008.02.08 10:29:00 - [32] Edited by: Druadan on 08/02/2008 10:29:52 Get yourself some nice implants to really boost your training speed. Put the rest, aside from a small amount that you should keep, into storage or investment. http://eve-bank.net is an ISK bank run by a set of experienced fellows, and a savings account with them gets you 3% interest a month, so think about dropping that storage ISK into there while you look for any better investment opportunities that may come along. -Dru
Brutoth Tain Independant Recon and Intelligence Agency	Posted - 2008.02.08 11:17:00 - [33] I would forget the carrier idea like others have posted the skill books you would need will take most of your ISK and by the time you have trained a char for the carrier you will be either broke again or rich enough to afford it anyway. If I where you I would buy a lot of +4 implants and all the skill books for your chosen "thing" in eve and just buy some ships and stuff and have fun.
Cosmar Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2008.02.08 11:32:00 - [34] Edited by: Cosmar on 08/02/2008 11:33:16 With 2 billion you can get a char with about 10 million sp. That seems like the best choice if you just want to use it to boost yourself quickly ahead. But if you want to build up your own character, some implants seem like the best choice for start. Don't spend it all now though, as your character can't really fly most expensive things yet. If you use 200-300 mil on ships for your 1 mil sp char you can probably buy everything you can fly for the next couple of months.
Kirjava Royal Hiigaran Navy	Posted - 2008.02.08 11:54:00 - [35] Skipped a bit, so scuse me if it's allready said. Get a Jump Clone, get a set of +4 in that noggin. Buy the skills you want to train for a while, throw around 500-800 into EBANK which has a compound 3% return per month. Haruhiists - Overloading Out of Pod discussions since 2007.
Istvaan Shogaatsu Guiding Hand Social Club	Posted - 2008.02.08 12:20:00 - [36] Edited by: Istvaan Shogaatsu on 08/02/2008 12:23:11 I'm gonna go with the implant recommendation as well. At this early point in your character's life, it's a MASSIVE advantage to be training as fast as the three year veterans, and a FAR better investment than any ships or whatever you might want. Get a set of Improved implants (the +5 kind), then max out your learning skills if they're not maxed yet. Edit: Oh, one more thing... can't believe I'm going to say this. Don't invest your money. Every investment scheme in Eve is pretty much a scam in disguise, waiting to amass enough funds to take off with them. Your money will grow faster if you manage it yourself, and giving it over to someone else is a great way to lose it all.

I'm going to agree and disagree with this. Usually the only reason to train Cybernetics V is for specialised mindlinks and the like. Even with great learning skills it can take 2-3 weeks, and the difference between +4 and +5 implants doesn't account for this unless you keep them for several years. Instead train Cybernetics IV in a sixth of the time, and spend a sixth of the amount on a +4 set. If you ever get podded with these they're much more affordable to replace, and provide an immediate benefit rather than in a month when you would finish Cyb V. Also no one has mentioned this yet, but posting your current skills list would be helpful in directing you where to go next.
Dristra Amarr Shadows of the Dead The Dawn of Darkness	Posted - 2008.02.08 14:03:00 - [38] Originally by: derpsauce Hey guys. So recently my EVE-addict friend has wisely decided to 'permanently' give up EVE in light of his bad school grades. To secure the deal he sold pretty much all his belongings and transfered most/all of his ISK to three of his friends [me included]. Now.. none of us, me especially, have extensive experience with the game. I don't know a lot of terms and only had a brief playing experience for a month awhile back, thus the topic name and why I come here seeking advice. Left with over 1bil ISK I'm stuck wondering what the crap to do with it all. I have no real calculated direction so I wanted to know the opinion of more experienced players as to the differnt paths I could go down and intend on using that advice to figure out where I'll go. Keep in mind this is all a long term goal, I don't expect to be able to buy my way into anything, I know how skills work.. though, where to train them in is something else I need to know. I enjoy support roles, interdictors appealed to me and striked me as the sort of ship everyone would be targetting which is something I'd dislike. I also love to gank, but it's not a necessity. Are interdictors really the primary targets and die the first as I'm assuming? How viable and difficult is it for a scrub like me to actually get into the likes of manufacturing/shipbuilding? Carriers. They look sexy and like my kind of thing, but..uh.. What exactly do they do and how plausible is it that I'll be useful in one? Hopefully this topic will avoid 'just give the ISK to me' comments, heh. Oh, also, this isn't the right section but I'm looking for a corp that'll help me with this stuff and hopefully I can be useful for. Thanks. keep it, if you want it to grow; buy cheap, and sell with profit, even 1 isk profit on trit is good money if you have a hundred million trit so freighter much? Support the introduction of well thought out Amarr solutions! I believe rats should avoid you if you have high standing with them.
Ralara Caldari D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.02.08 15:54:00 - [39] Originally by: ZeroMaximus Is moon mining hard? No but it's fking annoying -- Sir, I don't understand why we train for ECM, sir - in a fleet battle all you got to do is press buttons. THE ENEMY CANNOT PRESS A BUTTON IF YOU DISABLE HIS LOCK.
