Getting Started in EVE Online: Difference between revisions

==The Tutorial==

As soon as you complete your character and are thrown into the Captains Quarters you are greeted by Aura. Aura acts as a short tutorial, explaining all the basic controls and the interface. Read everything she says and follow her instructions. You will be given several missions. The first one gets you into your very first space ship. Afterwards you will learn how to shoot at thing and how to use Stargates in order to travel the galaxy. Everything should be pretty self-explanatory. But if you ever become stuck, look at the chat window in the lower left corner of your screen. You will see the names of three channels: Local, Corp and Rookie Help. Below that are several symbols. Click on the speech bubble. You will see a couple of folders. Click on help and look for the channel named EVE University (E-Uni). Click join. You are now in the public E-Uni channel where every possible question you might have will be answered!

After you completed the basic tutorial Aura will send you to the so called [[Tutorial and Career Agents in EVE|career agents]]. These are 5 agents that will introduce you to the archetypes of things you can do for a living. They will teach you everything you need to know to start your career in EVE. They will also provide a generous amount of ships, modules, skill books and ISK. In addition the last mission of every career agent is a story-line mission. That means you will get a lot of standing with the faction of that agent. It is therefore highly recommended to do all missions they offer. Completing at least one set of 5 career agents is compulsory if you want to join E-Uni. Since their rewards are better than what you will find on your typical Level 1 mission while taking less time, you should consider doing all 3 sets of career agents for your faction. This will give you a lot of standing and ISK right from the start.
