You'll know when you need to train up a weapon specialization to V. It will be when you have zero idea what ELSE to train instead. |

With remapping you can have it trained in less than 30 days. Large autos would only take 27 days for me. |

Ouch. Pre-empt the fotm? From the way things are going, it'll take a while, like when the current generation of devs die of old age. Standings Improvement Service https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=19454 |

With Remaps and Implants, yes its worth it when there is noting more pressing/worthwhile to train. I am currently working my way through the Spec V's on all guns, got Large Artillery to V, Medium Artillery and Autocannon to V, rest to follow. |

I can see Lg Blaster Spec 5 being useful on the Kronos and Talos. I'd rather have Lg Pulse Spec 5 though.

Ed: And in reality, I've got ~95M SP on Liang and still haven't trained any of the specs to 5. Maybe once I polish off the rest of my support skills. And EAF5, Marauders 5, and Black Ops 5. And I think there's some HIC skill I haven't trained. Normally on 5:00 -> 9-10:00 Eve (Aus TZ?)

Is this 2% damage going to be the very last way to squeeze that extra damage into your fit? Then yes. Proceed to train. Is there anything else that will take less? Then train that first. |

Unless you stay dock it's not a good choice.
1st those +5's set +pod price will cost you more than a T2 fitted cruiser, ad eventually the price of a T2 assault frig full fit and you're not far from the 500M mark.
How much motivating is this to pvp with implants?- Imho it isn't, it's not worth the effort for such little dps improvement.

The DPs increase if you have all your other support skills @ V is minimal. In EFT I think it ranges from about 10 DPS frigates to 30 DPS BS's or something like that on paper.
I'm not sure what the hit variations range is in game. Penetrating hits vs. Glancing blows and whether or not it might make the 2% bonus unnoticeable.
Personally I have all the support @ V and the specs @ IV and have never had a complaint. But like people have said if there is another skill that could benefit you more then train that. |

Use +3 or +4's. you only ever need two in at a time. |

2% is worth it if you've already trained all races. basically priority list depends on if you fly a specific ship (or group of ships that use the same weapons) a lot then training the weapon spec for that ship group is worth it, after training everything else.

Depends on how long you've played. I've played for over 5.5 years, training continously. I haven't run out of things to train yet. But there is no longer nothing that is urgent for me to train. If I'm about to embart on some kind of activity, it is very worthwhile for me to maximize my edge.

So what? -they expect medals, nice show up titles?  Everyone is happy those exist, they provide delicious km's and tears, those selling those implants also love them.
Also for someone above your post I do pvp with +3's (2) and this is not a problem neither, the question being is it worth the training time for the 5 spec lvl bonus, and imho it isn't in any shape or form.

Firstly, who said anything about +5's ? +4's are good too and way cheaper. Also, how often do you get podded? I've never been podded in lowsec, and in 0.0 pvp I didn't get podded very often at all. Often you get a sense before undocking weather you're going on a suicide run or not, and its a simple matter to jumpclone to a clone with only +3's or something. If you only get podded once every few months, a few hundred mil on implants doesn't seem like such a bad investment. [url]https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=65340[/url] |
