DeFood	Posted - 2004.12.06 14:43:00 - [1] If I was to create my main character again, I wouldn't. I would have specialized my character into several. Made a dedicated miner, fighter and trader. I would have done this for simple expediency. With several characters, I could stash my main miner/trader at corp headquarters, and run off with the fighter. Then, when I need cash, or there is a corp mining group effort, the trader and miner is close to hand without forcing my main character to traverse 20 odd jumps there and back each time this happens. What I would like would be the ability to get my main characters training to boost my other characters skills - either by outright transferring the skills. Or, perhaps by a new set of learning skills that allow me to divert skills from my main, to a nominated skill on my alt(s) during training. This would mean my main would train slower, but would also mean I could, without totally stalling my mains progress, get those damanable alts up to a point where I can use them to haul or mine. Thanks.

Thanit	Posted - 2004.12.06 14:52:00 - [5] I've trained up an alt from the start to specialise in things my main didn't and ended up scrapping it cause it was poo anyway. Now i somply got multiple accounts, works far better I can assure you.

Bhaal	Posted - 2004.12.06 15:37:00 - [7] I have 3 accounts, all have learning skills to lvl 5, and some select advanced learning skills to lvl 4. Only way to fly if you want to play this game "solo" when your corpmates are not online. I can't stand logging on and having to wait for other people to "get with the program"... Sometimes I like to log on and get a few hours in, and actually accomplish something, I don't have the time to wait while corpmates assemble, etc... Multiple accounts is the only way you can get things done effeciently sometimes... ------------------------------------------------ "for piece sakes!"

Thanks. How about a better way to move characters instead? There is way to make your trip to feel short there is few short steps you need to take. Step 1. Set autopilot to destination Step 2. find a solid concreed wall Step 3. Bang your head to the wall untill you blackout and when you wake up, you will be there (this also works for medium long skill trainings, altrought BS lvl5 takes atleast level 1 koma) -------------------------------------------
