E-Uni Basics Skill Plan

	EVE University offers a class on:
Skill Planning (CORE class)

The Short Skill Plan is intended to get new characters into useful ship hulls early so that they can take part in EVE University fleets while they train up more advanced skill plans. It is not required, but it is recommended.

Pilots who are not members of the University might still find the Short Skill Plan useful if they want to be basically functional in a wide range of cheap Tech 1 frigates and cruisers.

Summary

This plan is intended for very new characters. If you have been playing a while it is likely that your character will have most of these skills already.

The skill plans are stackable, so if you train the higher levels it will include all previous levels.

These skill plans will not get you into full EVE University doctrine fits, but they will enable you to fly more basic fits for some of the same hulls, which will let you attend fleets while you are training the necessary skills for doctrine fits.

Timescales

Training times will vary depending on whether the character is Alpha or Omega, and depending on their attributes, implants and any cerebral accelerators. The following are estimated timescales, with no implants or accelerators:

Frigate DD Basic

N.B. The following timescales assume that you have Hull Upgrades III trained, as most starting characters do. However, if your character is Caldari they will not have this by default, and the plan will take a few hours longer if you have not already trained this.

Omega: 5 hours, 58 minutes, 10 seconds

Alpha: 11 hours, 56 minutes, 20 seconds

Cruiser DD Basic

Omega: 4 days, 16 hours, 40 minutes, 46 seconds

Alpha: 9 days, 9 hours, 21 minutes, 31 seconds

Cost

All of the skills on this plan are covered under EVE University's Skillbook Reimbursement Program.

The total costs for each stage of the plan are as follows (at directly injectable prices):

Frigate DD Basic: 1,716,000 ISK (if you don't buy the skills your character already has)

Cruiser DD Basic: 6,825,000 ISK

Suggested shopping lists

We suggest that EVE University members spread the skillbook purchases over 3 days.

N.B. You will not need to purchase any of the skills you already have trained, which will reduce the costs. Each race starts with its own turret skill, for instance. If you have completed the tutorial you will also have your race's frigate skill.

If you have the Freshman title in EVE University, you can reimburse yourself for the cost of these skills by following the instructions on the Skillbook Reimbursement Program page. You can also check in the hangars for the campus you are based in, to see whether they have any of the skill books available.

If you are in EVE University but don't yet have the Freshman title, you can still obtain reimbursement for the cost of the skills. You will need to copy and paste the prepared messages (below each shipping list) into the "Corp" channel in-game so someone with the Freshman title or above can reimburse you from the Skillbook wallet. Remember to remove from the list any skills you already had trained.

Ships

Once you have trained these skillplans, you will be able to fly a basic version of fits used in many University fleets, including the following hulls:

Frigates

Fast tackle

• Atron
• Executioner
• Slasher

Damage / secondary tackle

• Kestrel
• Punisher
• Rifter
• Tormentor

Cruisers

• Thorax
• Caracal
• Moa
• Rupture
• Stabber

For some ideas for some ship fits you will be able to fly see Short Skill Plan Suggested Fits. These are not EVE University doctrine fits, but they will allow you to fly useful hulls and join fleets while you are training the more advanced skills required for the doctrine ships.

Where Next?

EVE University does not require any particular direction in skill training for members, but pilots might find the following resources useful:

• Reading about skills and learning will help you think through longer-term skill planning, and will show what you can do to train skills faster.
• The Pyramid Skill Plan offers a useful way to conceptualize routes through more advanced training.
• Fitting skills make it easier to fit any ship.
• Support skills are important aids in getting the most out of your ships.
• The Magic 14 skills are not a formal plan and should not all be trained to V at once (that would be boring), but they are 14 skills which benefit every ship you fly, and players who plan to spend much time in space—that is, almost all players—will find them useful.
