Dos and Don'ts for Noobs in EvE: Difference between revisions

Line 2:

Welcome Capsuleer to new Eden, a place where you can be nearly everything, a place with bright light and the evil of darkness. A place where you can find friends to conquer the deeps of space, friends you can trust... or may think you can trust them because there is also a dark side of Eve. There are Capsuleers out there that will try to gank you, they will try to steal your money, they will try to make sure you have a real bad day because it is so funny for them to do so. This Wiki should give you some basic knowledge to avoid losses.

== The ~~two basic rules~~ of ~~EvE:~~ ==

== The first rule of EVE ==

=== Fly only what you can lose! ===

Line 12:

Every ship that goes out into low sec or 0.0 is considered to be for PvP. To cite [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Kelduum_Revaan Kelduum Reevaan:] “The moment you undock a ship, whatever it is, consider it lost along with all modules and rigs. Only by returning successful do you avoid the loss.”

~~=== Keep your medical clone up to date! ===~~

== Never, ever, haul PLEXes ==

When you get podded (when somebody destroys your pod), if your [[clone|medical clone]] does not cover the number of skill points that you have, you will lose some skill points. The number you will lose is 5% of the amount that your clone did not cover. These skill points will be removed from the category you have trained most.

== Never, ever, haul ~~Plexes~~ ==

'''Or, how to get them to the place where you want them.'''

You never, ever, haul a ~~Plex~~! Why? You don't need to! If you haul a ~~Plex~~ in-game there is a very high chance that some one suicide gank you! So don't do it. You don't want to lose your real money!

If you buy a ~~Plex~~ with real money and want to sell it, maybe in Jita, then go to Jita and redeem the ~~Plex~~ there. (A redeemed item will always be put into the station hangar where you are docked). You can redeem an item after you have logged in (but not chosen your character) by clicking on the redeem bar on the lower screen border, or you can do it in-game via the character sheet or the Escape-Key menu.

If you buy a PLEX with real money and want to sell it, maybe in [[Trade Hubs|Jita]], then go to Jita and redeem the PLEX there.

Keep in mind, that after reverse redeeming a ~~Plex~~, you can only redeem it again in that same particular station, so choose your original redeeming location wisely.
