don`t you think that if a player spends a month or over learning lv5 skills that the return would be much better than a measly 5% or less, make it worth our while spending all that time on learning please.

It'd be nice to get maybe 7.5% or 10% for the level 5 skill.
I think THAT would bring about more specialization than these ridiculous specialization skills.

I think its fair the way it is really.
It might only be 5% but the skill often allows players to go on to train "advanced" skills
eg. Drones 5 allows the use of Drone Interfacing to field many more drones.
or Refining 5 allows the use of Refine efficiency.
So from that point of view im cool with it.

Specialization skills enable you to get some bonus once you reached Level 5. That's cool. -- Stories: #1 --

Yeah. That's a bonus in itself IMHO.

LvL5 is usually useless on it self, but with the tech II guns and other items you will need more and more lvl5 skills.

The system of diminished returns built into the skill system (the fact that it takes longer to train a skill from Level 4 to Level 5 than it does to train the from Level 3 to Level 4, for example) is what is needed to ensure a relatively equal playing field for those people that joined the game at a later date. This is neccessary to ensure that new players can continously join the game and not realise that their efforts are pointless and that they will never be able to compete.
That being said, older players will (almost) always have more skill points than newer players, yet the advantage these skill points gives them is minimal.
The advantage a veteran, or anyone else, has in training a skill to Level 5 is the ability to use higher Tech (i.e. Tech II) ships and modules, and to also train other skills that have the Level 5 as a pre-requisite, not just the few bonus percent.
The system should stay as it is.

Reading all the replies I was also going to say "Yeah some bonus to lvl 5 pls" but Sloth came up with a very good point, we all want this game to grow and new players (who are the blood to the "EVE body") need to be able to come to a reasonable lvl to compete with the vets.
Well that said, WE WANT MORE SPECIALISATION SKILL , seriously adding specialisation in armor/shield tanking, missiles, EW, etc would be a nice idea IMHO

Edited by: Danton Marcellus on 26/09/2004 17:58:58 If the requirements for learning advanced skills were all changed to lvl5 of the mandatory skill instead of lvl4 as it is mostly these days people wouldn't feel entitled to a little extra for meeting the mere minimum.
CCP being generous with the skills has the scavengers coming back for a rectal chew.

There are 2 things I'd personally like to see:
1) More of the Lvl 5 time being moved to Lvl 4 (this difference is drastic).
2) A weighted skills bonus, i.e. you get a higher bonus the higher the level.
Take any +5%/Level skill as an example: Level, Bonus, Total 1: +5% = 5% 2: +5% = 10% 3: +5% = 15% 4: +5% = 20% 5: +5% = 25%
Weighted it could be something like: Level, Bonus, Total 1: +3% = 3% 2: +4% = 7% 3: +5% = 12% 4: +6% = 18% 5: +7% = 25%

A weighted skill bonus, like you suggested, will not benifit the newer player, rather they will be even more behind.
The way it is now, with diminishing returns, is a great system.

I think some of your are missing the point on lv5
firstly its not only a 5% gain your getting. Many of the high tech gear requires you to have trained Lv5 to be able to use this ship, so that the bonus for trianing lv5 if often the use of equipment other people cant use.
Focusing mroe on the extra 5% bonus, while it dosent sound alot can make or break ship setups. I mean how often have u been setting up your ship only to come up short by 3cpu to fit that last large turret, if u had trained weapon upgrades to lv5 instead of lv4 it would be enough to allow u to sneak that last weapon on and make your perfect configuration.
And if u consider theos who have trained many lv5 skills say in gunnery the extra 5% on dmg, RoF, tracking, optimal range etc all adds up to a much larger bonus which in the end makes thier BS a hellovalot better than yours
