    I have added the new map of delve to the OP, and a link to the sov changes in delve the last 21 days, and changed the stations to reflect updates as far as empire places for application.

    Can you also add a bit about the whole "you need a legit PA account or a current member to sponsor you" thing, and also update who they should bug about getting approved

    Ok, I give. Guess I'll give it another shot.

    First question! Would it be more efficient to redownload the client (EVE_Premium_Setup_75883.exe) or use the one I apparently still have sitting around (EVE_Premium_Setup_45943.exe)?

    I'm guessing install my current one and patch would be more effective, but I'd like to make sure.

    Man, I hope I still have the remnants of the old install directory... Does it save system settings? I do NOT want to have to set up tabs a shit again (I can't really remember how to!)

    Well, resubbed, submitted an applicaiton and...


    I've no clue what to do, I've forgotten everything, oh god... 34sf5t4.gif


    Should I make a run out towards Delve before or after acceptance? Probably gonna spend the next while putting up my handful of cruisers, industrials, frigates etc on sale. Damn, I've got a clone with a full suite of Standard Implants (cept CHA, lol), how the hell am I gonna get that to delve in one piece... Suppose I could just leave it in high-sec and take my lesser clone or one of my two blank jump clones...

    Wait till after you're accepted, or the goons will kill you on sight.

    Your latter plan for the Jump Clone is a good one. Don't move the +4's into Delve, keep them at a nice safe empire station with skillbooks, and never ever leave it.Because of wardecs, you can get killed in a 1.0 system with those +4's at no penalty, and it happens.

    If you have valuable modules or something, I think there are occasionally official hauling ops from somewhere in empire you could tag along with to get your things to us.

    Also figured. Such a waste that I'll almost probobly never use it again. I take it most people out in Delve don't use very good implants since you're so likely to die?
    If you have valuable modules or something, I think there are occasionally official hauling ops from somewhere in empire you could tag along with to get your things to us.

    The majority of my assets are 3-4 cruisers, a single Battlecruiser, 3 industrial haulers, 4-5 Destroyers, a dozen plus frigates and one mining barge. Oh, and a whole lot of random parts, ammo and other stuff. Most of it concentrated in one general area, but some of it spread out, bleh.

    Think I'll probably sell/scrap most everything, toss the barge in my largest hauler along with some other stuff and try to make the run. Or maybe just say screw it all and make the run in a shuttle or something.

    Is there a central rally point for these hauling ops I could dump some things at for "some day"?

    [edit] Whoa, since when could you toss packaged ships inside cargo containers? Or did I simply forget this?

    Character creation is drastically different as of last night. New characters now start with only 50k skill points, but train twice as quickly until 1.6m.
    Your best bet is probably to download the latest build of EVEMon, make a skill plan with everything you want your recon pilot to have, find the optimal attributes and go from there.

    I think the best way to get started on a skill plan is to look up the recon ship you're trying to fly. If you plug all the required skills to fly that into Evemon's skill planner it'll tell you any skills that are needed to train the ship specific skills, as well as what learning skills to focus on.

    Also, not sure if this is still relevant, but this is a link that will show you all the "core" ship skills to train up:
    http://www.kylania.com/eve/skills.php

    hope that helps more than adds more confusion...

    This was my old PA account, I misspelled the name so I made a new one. The old char was either Shukaro or Shukaro Zan. I'm just creating a new EVE account because I thought it would be better to start from scratch and do it right this time.

    Make an overview setting that contains only planets. Name it "Pod saver" or something.

    The second your realize your're going down, switch to this setting, pick a planet and start clicking on the warp button in the top right like mad. When your ship pops your pod will hopefully start to warp almost immediately. Its very difficult to catch a pod that knows what it's doing.

    god there was part 7 or 8 of 10 of this first military starting mission sequence that ended up being incredibly annoying.

    armed with an antimatter gattling gun, i went up against a bunch of pirates with rockets. I have a shield regen ability that allowed me to hold out from damage indefinitely... but there was one particular pirate ship that I would miss about 85% of the time, even though I have motion projection (i think is what it's called) trained.

    I started on this one, realized i was missing, and proceeded to kill EVERY OTHER pirate ship in the region... must have been like 9 others.

    I go back to this guy.... miss miss miss miss miss miss hit miss miss miss.... and he just shield regens by the time my next hit gets in...

    wtf... i am orbiting at my weapon's optimal distance and everything, and there was nothing special about this pirate other than his annoying-ass rockets.

    what skills/stats/anything can I do to make my ship more accurate? I'm Caldari and I currently fly a Condor
