Up until this point, I have just been sitting in station training skills in preparation for this day! Mostly because I just haven’t had time to do much of anything else. That’s a big point I want to make, You don’t have to spend hours and hours playing this game to enjoy it. You can play this game in your off time and still increase your fun per hour greatly!

I am writing this article while I am at work, so I may have to update this post with more information later today. But I can still get the basics laid out and let you know how I am preparing my life as a Newbro.

ISK = Fun/hr?

Lurking around the “Rookie Help” channel, I have found that a lot of people ask this question:

“How do I make ISK?”

Unfortunately, you will never get an answer that everyone agrees upon. Everyone has their own way of making ISK and everyone has their own feeling about other people’s methods. This doesn’t have to be a hard choice and most options can be a lot of fun.

For the purpose of this article, I am going to post my plan to make ISK. BUT! I will make links to different methods of making ISK while in Brave Newbies that should be able to cater to everyone’s needs.

The Method I Choose: EXPLORATION

Yes, you read that right! Exploration is going to be my main income generator. This is mostly based on what I have read on the Brave Newbie Wiki, as well as the skill plan that they suggest you train for. (Here is the skill plan)

The skill plan I linked above is amazing, just because not to long after you start the skill plan, you will be able to fly almost every faction T1 frigate (Amarr, Caldari, Gallente, Minmatar) which includes their exploration frigates.

“What frigate should I fly then?!?”

I’m glad you asked that question! It really doesn’t matter what exploration frigate you fly. Choose the one that you think looks the coolest! For my exploration fit, I choose the Heron because I like the way it looks the most. My runner up was the Amarr Magnate.

“Cool! Now what in the world do I fit to the ship?!?”

The one thing that I have seen from looking at different exploration frigate fits, is that there is nothing really different about them. They all pretty much have the same modules. I will show you the fit that I am going to be running with until I can get my skills a little higher:

At this point, I have to get back to work! Even though I would rather do this, I need real money to fuel my new found EVE addiction. I will post more around 11:00AM PST.
