As anyone who has been through multiple expansion launches should know, you want to have a very long skill in your training queue prior to patch day. Some times a CCP/Eve expansion launch borks the servers, some times it's the client that the expansion borks, and some times it is the whole computer the patch borks (can you say boot.ini?).
I learned the hard way several expansions ago where I couldn't log in and change my skills and lost several days worth of potential training.
This time I'm going with the following skills on the three characters I have:
Explosive Armor Compensation V (9 days 10 hours) Energy Management V (12 days 17 hours) Drone Interfacing V (18 days 23 hours)
Worst case scenario is the 9 days skill might not be long enough, but he isn't my main char so I'm not going to cry if it goes badly.
So what long skills are you going to queue up? What is your fears regarding the typical CCP patch day blunder?

Funny thing is some people think that once the servers are up, they can set short skills again... Not realizing that you should have long skills for at least a couple of week after launch just to make sure your skill change doesn't happen just at the time when the servers go down for a few hours.

As long as you don't have a skill change during the update, and wait a few days to make sure everything is good, you should be fine.
Traning long skills for a couple weeks after launch is probably overkill to be honest. To each their own though.

sentry drone interfacing V Jump freighter V
As for my main (this char) I'm not sure. I switched about a year back to a all charisma attribute focus so i could knock out all the leadership skills. I finished that and most of the social and most of the trade. Does anyone know if they are adding in any more charisma based skills in PI, havn't had time to test sadly. ------------------------------ God is an afk cloaker |
