You should try to do all the tutorials to get a base line exposure to all the game types available. BNI is part of an alliance that has a sister corporation for just about everything (except faction warfare). Any idea what aspect of Eve you would like to try out? Eve tends to reward specialization because of the way time=skillpoints training system. So figure out what road sounds interesting and I can point you to the right people to talk with in BNI. Drop me an evemail in game or just convo me when you see me online as Khaldune Ro.Started playing for the first time (and joined BNI) last week and still haven't the slightest clue what I'm doing. The fleets are pretty fun, but I get this sense that ratting and fleeting Barl and nearby systems is only exposing me to like 1/10000000 of the game.
Thanks.. that static was what I was clueless about. I didnt know those connections are always there. I knew about the random holes and need to scan stuff. Thanks again. In provi, we plugged some unwated holes with an orcaI'll try to say what I can remember, and people will come by and correct me.
Spawning of new connections seemed to be somewhat random, but there are either K162s (which are the back end of a connection FROM somewhere) or a connection TO somewhere (which will have a different number).
Holes can only accept so much mass through them, so you can forcibly close a wormhole by sending big ships (battleships mostly) through them. Most WH corps will do this with unwanted connections to help with safety. If you close something that isn't a static, it doesn't reopen. However, this has to be done carefully so that you don't lose ships by having them end up on the wrong side of the hole.
Statics are exactly what they sound like; they're a connection that's always there. If you close the hole, it reopens again, to the same place it was to before. The WH I lived in for a while was a C4 with a static to a C5.
Scanning for new sigs is a daily life thing in wormholes; the corp I was in used a website to make notes about new sigs so that the leadership could determine what to do about them. Run a particularly good site, close a hole, use a hole to move things to and from regular space, whatever.
The only really wrong part of this is bolded. Static wormholes always connect to a specific class, but not to a specific system. I live in a C4 wormhole, with a C5 static. I can close the static, and will always get a C5 wormhole with that static. Statistically speaking it's possible, but extremely unlikely for it to spawn to the same system.I'll try to say what I can remember, and people will come by and correct me.

Whats your name in-game? You're the sukik from temerity, yeah?Started playing this a few weeks ago. Grinding standings up and certing myself up the ship tree as I get the isk to buy them. Haven't tried any of the corps that give newbs direction(BNI, EUNI, etc) but I might soon.
CCP <3s you!I have had an active subscription to this for almost two years and have never really played it. I do enjoy queuing skills though!
I am, my char in eve is Vecor QuelWhats your name in-game? You're the sukik from temerity, yeah?
Lol yea...lots of cosmetic UI changes.This patch needs a TL: DR.
You should check the EVE forums. It's the "L33t PvP pr0 teamz" who are being frustrated, that nullsec carebears can kill them oh so very efficently with blob warfareAlso will frustrate the hell out of nullsec carebears.
