Skill up! Tell us all about skills!

Posted by Alex Sinclair in EVE Online

Skills that pay the bills? As part of our ongoing preparation for our in-depth EVE beginners' guide, we want you to teach us all about skills, including: Skill Points, skill plans, skill training, skill books, skill multipliers, skill injectors and extractors, skill priorities, and how they all differ for Alpha and Omega players. We'll leave it to you to decide whether you want to give an introduction to all of them or a great explanation of just one or two.

FF23 it was said we get rid of the attributes.

Anyway back in the days and still today you do skill plans with remapping your attributes to max out the SP gain. With the Free SP you get from CCP you can than also train skills which are currently not supported by your attributes.

for example:
Armor and Shield skills are supported by INT & MEM.
Pew Pew and Ships are supported by PERC & WILL.
So if you plan to skill a certain skill group, have a look around if something else from another group has the same attributes, it may be worth training your time.

Small hint not all Skills need to on V, but some are must have :)
But an x12 Skill just will take it time to get it on V

And as long as we have the attributes you may want to have a training pod which you use when you logged off. Good Training to don´t die by forgetting you sitting in High-Grades :)

The Magical +5 aka Training POD

Cybernetic Subprocessor - Improved
Memory Augmentation - Improved
Neural Boost - Improved
Ocular Filter - Improved
Social Adaptation Chip - Improved

Oh you blessed Child, choosing a time in heaven touching the devil.
There was a time when you forgot to upgrade your clone to hold certain level of SP…
in case you died you would lose SP. Time was also dark for the mighty T3 in case you lost the Ship you also lost a random skill of the subsystems.

Skill Plans:
Everyone needs to find a way to generate income. As EVE is a game about playing not only over a few hours, but months and potentially years, I recommend to newbros to find ways of generating isk/income OUTSIDE of game time.

My personal favorite semi-active activity to generate income is Planetary Industry.
With a single LSI (Or about 16 days of game training), you will have an abundance of skill points to have a character trained into an Epithal + level 4 Planetary Interactions skills (you do not need Advanced Planetology or Planetology). I personally pull my PI every 4 days, and it takes me about 45 min to reset and do all of my PI across 12 toons and it makes me about 140m isk/day. This will generate you enough semi-passive isk to do just about anything you want to start you out. The rest of your SP should be put into bettering your isk draining activities (PvP/building ships).

The best places to generate this income is in Wormhole space or Null-Sec, but you can do the same activity in Low-Sec or High-Sec for lower profitability, but ease of access to markets.
