 ==Three General Suggestions==
-* ''Basic ship handling skills'' ... Navigation, Engineering, Shields, Armor, Rigging ... apply to almost anything you decide to do in EVE. The "Mastery" panel on the Show Info window of the ship you are flying suggests skills that will help you improve your handling of that class of ship. UniWiki also maintains a good [[Basic_Skills|list of Basic Skills]]. The general agreement is that any skill worth learning is worth learning up to Level III. Learn Level IV if it is a skill that greatly affects something that you do a lot of. The time you need to spend to get to Level V is usually not a good trade-off against training a different skill to Level IV – though the game occasionally forces you to learn a Level V as a prerequisite in the skill tree.

UniWiki also maintains a good [[Basic_Skills|list of Basic Skills]]. Focus on the basics first; get the more advanced stuff later on when you can actually make use of it.
 * ''Alts'', or [[Alternate_Character#Alternate_Character|Alternalte Characters]], have a number of potential uses. You probably want to make one and train it to use Industrial ships for hauling. Run Distribution Missions to get augmentation plugins, and then, as your skills grow, you may want to look towards buying an industrial ship large enough to let you contract to carry large loads in hisec space. Or, if you want, you can choose to develop your Alt as a miner, or as an explorer ... any career other than combat fighting. Generally, Alts do not fly in E-UNI combat fleets.
