DUST Search - A bit of a complaint

CPU and Powergrid are actually two of the most important, those yellow bars you see that go up and down when you change stuff actually determine how many things (and how powerful) you can put on a suit.

SP is what you use to unlock more powerful dropsuits, modules and weapons to fit on your dropsuit. The skills you learn apply bonuses to your suits with synergy.

The best way to start is to pick a race and a specialty and stick to it religiously.

Choose a dropsuit frame skill and get it to 3, choose a weapon and get it to three (I do NOT recommend heavy dropsuits as a starter choice at all).

Read the skill descriptions carefully. your choices matter.

Dropsuit Electronics and Dropsuit Engineering upgrade your CPU and PG respectively. I recommend both to three ASAP.

If you chose amarr or gallente, the armor skills are critical, and I recommend them to 3 each to start ASAP.

If you chose the caldari or minmatar I recommend them to 3 ASAP.

This game isn't like any other, and requires a certain amount of intestinal fortitude and patience. But we (The CPM) are working on improving the New Player Experience by giving the Developers feedback.

Good luck.

But we (The CPM) are working on improving the New Player Experience by giving the Developers feedback. Good luck. All these points are extremely important. Thank you for making a point of them. I personally recommend training all relevant skills to 3, just as you say, and higher if necessary to unlock other relevant skills. I've found that level 3 is the most achievable significant skill level and I can't stress the importance of training EVERYTHING to that level, weapons, CPU/PG, suits, modules, everything. Then level 3 (advanced) suits can be fitted with advanced modules, advanced tank, and advanced weapons, everything matching, including considerations of PG and CPU. It's easy for a noob to succumb to the temptation to train something they think is important like a weapon, to level 5 only to find they can't fit it on a suit without sacrificing tank, due to limited CPU/PG. Training everything evenly to level 3 in the first instance will keep this sort of thing under control.

Also if it matters or not. I downloaded the game from my ps3. went ahead and bought the starter pack. for .99 cents. gave me a bit of aur. but i never want to spend that stuff. Yes, it does take a long time. This is part of the charm of the EvE universe. :)
