And i'm even more poor than my DUST character... 70k isk is my current wallet.
I want to get into FW or mission running, but i need to get into mining so i can make the 600mill for a PLEX. Does anyone have a corp to suggest? (Not putting this in EVe forums because i don't think i can trust many of them yet... 4 people got podded right near me)

EVE Uni always helps new players.
Don't mine. Get into probing so you can discover wormholes. That's where the real money is at.

Don't even waste time mining, its one of the lowest isk/time activities in the game |

Probing... I'll try that out, though i'm already 3/10 through the combat school and 4/10 trough mining. In case you can't tell, i'm really bad at skill planning and have no idea what i'm doing.(contrary to my DUST beliefs...) Especially sucks since there isn't that visual skill tree.
Edit: my main goal for the future though is to get into a destroyer and running OB's for PC/Fw. Goin to have to change my skill queue thiugh.

Same as Dust, focus on those core skills. Also, plan ahead for what kind of ship you want and follow the certificates to cover the basics. Use webs, scramblers, and afterburners/MWD if you're going to solo a lot as well. Once you get comfortable enough with the UI, practice manual flight. If you get good enough, you'll never need to use a gyrostabilizer.

Manual flight? I really hope you mean using Wasd and/or a controller, though i'm gonna be realistic and say no. Currently i own a reaper, venture, and (i think this is the name) stabber?(the one with a bonus to webs) My ideal plan is to go into destroyers and stealth bombers. EWAR isn't really my thing, considering ATM i'm fast enough to make webs redundant for range dictation.

Mining is a poor choice to get a plex within the first month, most of the time it takes several months to get the skills and the ability to make enough money to get a plex without blowing up your wallet every month. Be warned, to get enough money you will have to spend a lot of gametime if you still want to have enough money left after you have paid for a plex.
First, get in a corp, find mates to fly with and learn how to get rich. Compared to most eve players, DUST players are very poor even with several millions of isk in their wallets. You can be called a "wealthy" (not rich that is even a step above) person in eve if you make 1-2 billion in a month. |

EWAR isn't really my thing, considering ATM i'm fast enough to make webs redundant for range dictation. You're going to need webs and scramblers, even for rats. Plus tackling adds to your value as a new player. For general usage, I would stick with a Rifter. It's not as powerful as before, but it's still a solid ship for its versatility.
Sadly, manual flight is point and click. Still a useful skill to have once you can get transversal velocity down. Think of it like strafing on steroids.

Word of advice: Don't go for the 600 mil PLEX grind. It turns EVE into an extremely low paying second job. It really isn't fun. Start thinking about it once you're well established and doing lucrative activities like incursions, wormholes, etc, that weren't available to you as a new player.
Mining is a soul destroying profession. It doesn't make much ISK either.
FW is quite good if you want to get into PvP but you'll get destroyed at the beginning by people with much better ships, more experience, and more SP. Also, you might get blobbed.
The first thing you should do is find a good corporation. Another poster said to investigate CFC groups - Goonswarm is an excellent group to get into, but unfortunately unless you're well connected with them or an SA poster then you probably won't get in. Do NOT fall for the 'processing fee' scams or suchlike - they'll rip you off and you won't actually get in.
A good corp is important to have. EVE is a social game, and there are many group activities which are much better than solo work.

Faction Warfare is definitely a good thing to get into, you can provide OBs to DUST mercs which give you 3k LP per OB, and that LP could then be used to buy goods at an LP store, and sell them for ISK.
Or, if you have enough DUST ISK, you can use this service;
https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=111070&find=unread
I've used it myself, and so have many others before me, so the person running it is very trustworthy.
If you really want to PLEX in 21-Days, this could probably be of some help

That guy managed to PLEX his account in 13 days, but he was experienced at EVE.
DUST is so broken, even my PS3 refuses to let me play it.

It will take a LONG time for a new player to make 600 mil. You don't have the SP to make any good isk efficiently. Between the SP grind, buying skill books, proper ships and modules need to make better ISK, I'm thinking it will take 2-3 months to be able to buy your first PLEX. good luck. |

If you want to get into FW, providing OBs for DUST Troops fighting for a faction of your choice is a good place to start. (You get 3k LP per OB, and it increases with each Tier)
Mail me in-game (Knight Solataire), and I'll get back to you with the fit I use for OBs.
It doesn't require a lot of SP, and unless your enemy is ganging up on you, you'll almost always escape.
But its not a combat ship, its simply for providing OBs, if you get into a combat situation with another pilot, just warp off.
