I am training an alt for covert ops. Not sure what exact role the character will play.
I would like advice on which Electronic (Intelligence, Memory) skills to train to level 5 before I remap.
I was thinking about training Electronics and Cloaking to V, and all the other Electronic skills to IV

Cloaking IV *V is a waste* Electronics Upgrades V is a pre-req for covert ops ships.

Edited by: Troll Sterger on 08/11/2010 22:33:45 Train electronics to V as well. It's short with that int/mem mapping, and the CPU may be needed for certain fits. You may want to look at t2 anlyzers, slavagers, and codebreakers, too. Don't forget scanning skills, too.

Thank you for the input.
So Cloaking V is not required :)
Should Astrometrics be trained to V?

Not unless you want to shave fractions of a second off of your targeting delay.

Yes. The benefit of deep space probes is well worth it. You can see all the sigs in a system with one scan instead of having to do multiple scans at the shorter rangers of the other probes.

Might want to consider Cyno V as well, in the event you want to use Covert Cynos some time in the future. So: Electronics V Electronic Upgrades V Cyno Theory V Cloaking IV.
Also consider Sensor Linking V, Signature Analysis V and probably Targeting V while you're at it. Useful skills if you decide to use that 'toon in a SB (and other ships of course). *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Also, train the other astrometric skills to at least 4, rangefinding to 5 for maximum scanning awesomeness.
Perhaps cybernetics 5 also, if you want to be able to use the real nice scanning implants.
Another option would be to train some t3 subsystem skills up (electronics for instance) and use that as your scanning ship. More expensive, but much more useful.

Example: not stopped by bubbles, and warps in 3.5 seconds while cloaked.
Mostly passive tank for handling smartbomb hits. Hardener, dual prop, and cap booster for hopefully surviving the trip back to the gate should you get very unlucky.

When you say covert ops, I assume you mean frigates - in which case Cloaking 5 is completely useless.
Stealth bombers have -100% targeting delay bonus. The normal covert ops frigate for probing, has no use outside of staying cloaked 99.9% of its life.
However if you get Recon ships, that point something of a second can mean you tackle a ship in time, or save an ally. Good for rapier or arazu mostly.
However that skill should be bottom of the list, below the ship specialisation to 5 and probing skills to 5.

Might also want to consider training astrometrics V so you can use sister and deep scanner probes However, you might want to consider a few things, first of all; I now have one of those annoying sigs. second; you should probably move on to some more interesting things than reading this sig.

You don't need astrometrics to V to use sister's probes..

Thank you all for your suggestions. I am absolutely clear now on what I have to train.
And yes, I was thinking of frigates. The Tengu fit looks tempting though. May do Cruiser V (after Frig V) once I remap for spaceship command.
May be an idea to train logistics related Engineering skills now, in case I end up with Cruiser V...

ALL deep space scanner probes required Astrometrics lvl V.... You do not need it for sisters combat or exploration probes.
