Feels stunningly appropriate that I finish the eighty-eight page New
Player Guide from BattleClinic within minutes of completing Instant
Recall 5 in game. Queue up Analytical Mind 5 before turning in for the
night.
Decidedly, trading and mining are not personally viable
career paths. Fell asleep three times slogging through admittedly short
tutorial write-ups. I appreciate the power of EVE's economy, but don't
feel the Alan Greenspan route is my foot in the door.
Slasher
isn't cutting it. Rifter curing that. Averse to piloting the magazine
ad poster child for the Minmatar Republic. Get over it as Angel Cartel
pilots drop like flies. Broke my heart to dispatch a Thrasher class
destroyer. Beautiful boat. Want one presently, but will diligently hold
the line in Rifter until frigate skills -- and then destroyer skills --
are up to par. Need to download the EVEmon character skill-path planner and monitor. Integrate it into regimen. Need a ballpark on how long patience will be tried waiting for Destroyer certification.
Training Learning skills is mentally taxing. But being in this for the long haul implicitely calls for
early-game patience. Have to eat my vegetables.
