As a rule of thumb, smaller and lower-tech ships demand less-polished support and fitting skills from your character. A Tech 1 frigate in the hands of a days-old character can handily complete Level 1 PvE missions or significantly affect veteran pilots in advanced ships by [[tackling]] or using [[electronic warfare]] in PvP. An expensive Tech 2 black ops battleship, meanwhile, will be a painful loss waiting to happen if piloted by a character without well-trained support skills.

Small- and medium-sized Tech 1 hulls can take part in most activities in EVE, and even players with high-SP characters often return to these "basic" ships, so new players should bear support skills in mind but should not be daunted by the thought of training them. EVE University's [[~~Short~~ Skill ~~Plan]] and [[Pyramid Skill Plan~~]] might help players plan skill training in the short and long terms~~, respectively~~.

* {{Sh|Noctis}}: The final word in [[salvaging]], able to fit up to 8 high-power salvagers or long-range tractor beams.

* {{Sh|Rorqual}}: The Capital Industrial Ship, the dreadnought and carrier of mining, and the final word in mining command. Extremely capable at mining, mining fleet support, defensive combat, and cargo hauling. Cannot be used in high-security space, very powerful in low- and null-security space.

* [[Image:logo_faction_sisters_of_eve.png|22px|link=]][[Sisters of EVE]]: the ~~three~~ SOE ships ([[Astero]], [[Stratios]], [[Nestor]]) are optimized for [[exploration]]. Each is bonused for scanning and hacking, and each has sufficient combat strength to either run PvE combat sites or hunt ''other'' exploration ships. They require both Amarr and Gallente spaceship skills, and to be used effectively they require solid scanning, drone skills, and armor skills. [[Nestor]] has also a very distinct niche in game as a logistics battleship, that is used in a small fleet activities.

* [[Image:logo_faction_sisters_of_eve.png|22px|link=]][[Sisters of EVE]]: the four SOE ships ([[Astero]], [[Stratios]], [[Nestor]], [[Odysseus]]) are optimized for [[exploration]]. Each is bonused for scanning and hacking, and each has sufficient combat strength to either run PvE combat sites or hunt ''other'' exploration ships. They require both Amarr and Gallente spaceship skills, and to be used effectively they require solid scanning, drone skills, and armor skills.
