Gone in 60 Seconds

In the fall of 2017, another war began between GoonsWarm and Circle-Of-Two. The advantage was on the side of the latter. They had more resources and influence, and they were also able to build the best citadel in the game - the Palantir Keepstar class. A citadel of this type allows you to store and repair even the largest Titan-class ships, install various modules such as shopping centers and medical bays, and the firepower and protection of the citadel could radically change the course of the war. And given that such a citadel can only exist in a single copy in the game, its value rises to the skies. But no matter how well the citadel was protected from external enemies, practice has shown that it is very vulnerable to internal enemies. One of the high-ranking members of Circle-Of-Two with the nickname The Judge did not like the behavior of the head of the alliance Gigx. According to The Judge, he behaved pretentiously and bitterly towards other members of the alliance. At some point, the leader's behavior could no longer be tolerated, and by coincidence, representatives of GoonsWarm contacted The Judge and offered to betray his alliance and hand over the citadel to them. Without thinking twice, The Judge got to the button and in an instant blocked access to the citadel for all members of Circle-Of-Two. The players were completely perplexed, since they could not even fly inside the citadel, and then were completely shocked when the inscription "LOL" appeared above it in warp bubbles. A little later, the citadel fell into the clutches of GoonsWarm and they began to attack the ships closest to them and collect resources. For his betrayal, The Judge received 300 million ISK, despite the fact that the citadel itself and all its property were worth 250 billion, which is quite an impressive amount when translated into real money, but according to The Judge, who later explained his actions on Reddit, money was not the main thing for him. He just wanted to screw with Gigx, and he succeeded. Not only did he suddenly steal the citadel, but also Gigx's personal titan, which was parked in its hangar.

In EVE Online, skills are the primary way players can improve their character's abilities and capabilities. Skills are trained in real-time, meaning they continue to improve even when the player is offline. Here's how skills work in EVE Online:

1. Skill Points: Every character in EVE Online has a set number of skill points that determine their prowess in certain areas. Skill points are gained by training skills and can be allocated to improve various aspects of gameplay.

2. Skill Training: Players can train skills by purchasing skill books from NPC vendors and adding them to their training queue. Skills have different ranks (levels) that determine their effectiveness, and higher ranks require more time to train. The training time for a skill is determined by the skill's rank and the character's attributes.

3. Skill Categories: There are several categories of skills in EVE Online, such as spaceship command, industry, trade, and science. Each category contains a range of specific skills that players can train to improve their abilities in that area.

4. Skill Levels: Skills can have multiple levels, with each level providing increased benefits or unlocks new abilities. Higher skill levels often require more skill points and longer training times to achieve.

5. Attributes: Every character in EVE Online has five attributes: intelligence, perception, willpower, memory, and charisma. These attributes affect the rate at which skills are trained, so players can optimize their training by focusing on skills that align with their character's attributes.

6. Skill Queue: Players can set up a skill training queue that automatically trains skills in succession. This allows players to plan their skill training in advance and make sure they are always improving their character's abilities.

Overall, skills are a crucial aspect of EVE Online that allow players to customize their character's abilities and playstyle. By strategically training skills, players can become more proficient in combat, industry, trading, exploration, and many other aspects of the game.

1. Scanning in Null Sec

The best and most budget option for PVE activity in the game for a solo player, in my opinion, is Scanning in Null Sec. All you need for this is to save up about 1 million ISK for a scanning frigate and consumables, upgrade several skills and go to Null Sec via threads. Your goal is Data/Relic sites. They appear quite often and in just one evening you can save up for a good update of your personal fleet.

2. Wormholes

The second stage of development in the EVE Online universe can be considered farming in C3 wormholes, allowing you to get 40 million ISK for 1 anomaly. After an evening of scanning, you will have enough money to buy a ship called "Gnosis", as well as modules for it, which will allow you to earn "clean" ISK without much effort. The main thing is to collect loot from all NPCs, because it is the one that has value and is always bought at the same price

3. Trade

Having accumulated capital, you may get tired of destroying the same NPCs or flying around the same systems of vast space in search of Data/Relic sites. You can engage in trade - learn the deep world of traders through a living economy that is completely dependent on players. Study the prices of popular goods in different systems, negotiate with logisticians about deliveries and spin the market of valuable ships and modules as you want, earning all the money in the universe

4. Cargo transportation

Do you want to enjoy the beautiful views of safe space? Do you want to deliver the necessary goods to remote corners of the empire, helping other capsuleers, supplying them with all the necessary things? Cargo transportation is for you! A small cargo barge, available after learning one skill, will allow you to transport everything from minerals and ore to ready-made ships and stations ready to break into the battle for the right to own the system. Find cargo contracts and help your comrades for a generous reward

5. Production

Don't want to break the economy or travel, and your mind is occupied with thoughts of creation? Then your calling is production. Buy materials and blueprints, create everything! From cartridges and rockets to stations and titans - the largest ships in the game! Everything will be produced by your own hands. Agree with friends or clanmates to supply you with materials at a reduced price in exchange for a discount on the equipment you produce, and you will be completely sucked into the world of production!
