There are a wide variety of activities available to every EVE player, and most of these require different skills. If you are just starting out, you will find life in EVE much easier if you develop a [[Skill Plan]] for your character. The process of deciding which of the many skills to train, and in what order, will help you think through your approach to the game. | |||
If you are planning to do missions, for example, then in terms of ships you may want to consider: | |||
* do you want to train fully in frigates ... e.g., learning frigate skills in each race ... or do you want to move quickly to larger ships? | |||
* do you want to train one or more spaceship skills to Level V? | |||
* how much training time are you willing to allocate to combat and ship handling skills? | |||
In general, missions require lower levels of combat skills that does PvP - because once you can kill the NPCs at a given level, you need no additional power. And, it usually makes sense to train one particular weapons systems (e.g., missiles, drones, projectiles) to a high level and then look for a ship that uses those weapons. Most of the races have a number of drone and missile ships ... which is one of the reasons why these are a popular choice. | |||
However, if you focus on developing skills for mission running, you will inevitably short change skills needed for other activities ... including such as PvP, exploration, mining and so on. THIS is why it is a good idea to develop a Skill Plan. Such a plan will help you decide which ships you want to use, and the plan can be modified as you gain experience and discover other things that you want to do. | |||
