Recovering Skipped Tutorials & Finding Career Agents

It is remarkably easy for a brand-new capsuleer to accidentally click “Skip Tutorial”, close Aura’s conversation window, or get stuck due to an in-game UI glitch. Do not panic—you have not ruined your character or lost access to the early game.

Claiming Your 1,000,000 Skill Points Recruitment Bonus

Before doing anything else, verify whether you created your account through a recruitment referral link:

The 1,000,000 SP Advantage

Creating an EVE Online account through an official recruitment referral link grants your character an instant 1,000,000 unallocated Skill Points (SP) upon login. This is roughly equivalent to 20 to 25 days of passive real-time skill training and allows you to immediately inject core magic-14 support skills, frigate mastery, and weapon specialization.

• If you already used a referral link: Open your Character Sheet (Alt+A) and look at the bottom-left corner of the Skills tab. You should see 1,000,000 Unallocated SP ready to be applied.
• If you signed up directly without a referral link:
  • If your character is less than a few hours old, it is strongly recommended to register a new account using a referral code.
  • Alternatively, you can apply a referral link retroactively to an existing account on the official EVE Online account management portal if the account was created within the last 15 days.

How to Find the Career Agents via The Agency

If Aura stopped talking to you, disappeared, or you were prematurely ejected from Exordium, your immediate next step is to locate the Career Agents.

These five non-player character (NPC) agents provide 45 guided missions introducing every primary career path in EVE Online.

Follow these exact steps to find the nearest Career Agent constellation:

[ Click the Neocom "E" Icon (Top-Left Screen) ]

    [ Click the "Agents & Missions" Tab ]

        [ Click "Career Agents" Card ]
                    ↓
[ Click "Set Destination" to the Nearest Agent Station ]

1. Open the Neocom main menu by clicking the golden E logo in the top-left corner of your interface (or press Alt+M directly to open The Agency).
2. In The Agency window, click on the Agents & Missions category tab along the top navigation bar.
