McTaggart:
Currently I'm going by 'Toolivus' but I will probably start afresh and with renewed intention as 'McTaggart' or even 'Toolivus McTaggart' when I inevitably decide to subscribe.

For now I'm still poking things and seeing how they work and what sort of character I want. I'm thinking long range lasers and tanked shields.

Verergoca:
/me adds people to QC folder in buddylist

Oh, my current stats;

Vergo Newman   
Production Inc   
29,766,662 ISK   
390,814   SP

Intelligence   12
Perception   8
Charisma   7
Willpower   8
Memory   14

This is my 2nd character, I had a Verergoca, but it took me the trail account to figure out what I want:)

Switchblade:
Wow, four hundred thousand SP and you already have nearly thirty million?

I predict great wealth in your future...

Unfortunately, none of the races make any provision for this. for starters, lasers are medium-range guns, and the only race whose ships provide laser bonuses are the Amarrians, who are famed armour tankers.

The longest-ranged guns are railguns, so you'll be best off playing as the Caldari, who are the "long range guns, missiles and shield tanking" crowd in EVE.

McTaggart:
I have started Toolivus McTaggart as the character that I will continue with. I'll add all of you tomorrow but for now I'm off to work (yet still training. Tha's awesome).

est:
i went on my first few Agent missions the other day.  is there any way to tell how difficult the missions are going to be before you take them?  i took a mission that i thought carried on from a certain one i had just completed, and when i warped out into the area they asked me to there were a billion* ships that pounded me & left me podding it back to a base.  on the bright side, it was one hell of a learning experience.

i've since bought a Merlin and kitted it out with two hybrid turrets + two missile turrets and gone back and kicked their asses, but that's not the point.  i still lost a perfectly good Bantam due to not being able to see anything that told me that this was a much more difficult mission than the last one.

in fact, the (storyline) missions that i've picked up then seem to be of the "set course for something, activate autopilot, go make a cup of tea, come back and dock with the target station" variety.  i've since learned to ask for more details, but that still doesnt' really let you know what you're going to be going up against on the mission.  am i too used to EQ/FFXI/WoW-style hand-holding in regards to missions?

so anyway, i'm flying about in a Merlin now.  just bought another Bantam & am training my Frigates skill to 4 as we speak (3D 16H etc etc ...) in preparation for learning how to fly Cruisers.  will be doing a few more missions then going back to mining, or perhaps alternating between the two so that i don't get the Space Madness.


* ok, so like maybe 5 or 6.  whatever.
