Being a n00b, Again
Since my cover-story is new-eve-player, I’m essentially re-starting the game from scratch. EVE has an API that allows authorized groups to check into your character’s background - what corps you were part of, your financial history, what chat-channels you’ve been in, where all your assets are, etc. I can’t transfer any starting-cash to my spy-alt, so I gotta start as both a completely unskilled, and a completely poor character. One of the core mechanics of EVE is the acquisition of Skill-points. EVE doesn’t have character levels like other MMOs where you actually need to play to get stronger, you just need to wait for your skill-points to accumulate. This is both good and bad for a spy - I don’t need to grind to get leveled-up, but I also don’t have a lot of options to speed the process up. This leaves me painstakingly looking through target-corp’s fleet-doctrine* lists, trying to find what I can train into quickly so that I can have a place in any fleet that might be pinged for
