Lorth	Posted - 2005.06.15 01:36:00 - [1] Well its come down to it. As of right now, there exists no gallente ship (save for the indys) which I can not fly, and use the tech two guns for. I also have my support skills, such as drones, fitting, and tanking skills maxed (in the case of drones nearly maxed.) All that would remain for me to train in order to say I was at nearly 100% effectiveness at flying gallente ships would be battle ship level 5. Which leads me to a cross road. Do I train that, or spend an equal amount of time training anouther races guns/ships and become profient in that, or add a little more to my gallente damage. When I first thought of it, training anouther races ships seemed to be the best choice. More flexablity, and more options, when going into combat. However, the thought of tech 2 BS's and dreadnoughts reminded me that level 5 BS skills would be a valuable asset to have. And frankly I also like the thought that when going into battle, no one I meet will have an edge over me, at least skill wise, because I choose to specilize, rather then be a jack of all trades.
Asharee Intrefer	Posted - 2005.06.15 07:06:00 - [2] Even though I'm technically somewhat of a carebear, I've been thinking about the same. My conlusion was that I'll probably be going to specialize in one BS (I trained BS 5 while I had a break from the game, now just need to finish of some gunnery skills to match), and then go for multiple choices with elite frigates and cruisers.
Burzon	Posted - 2005.06.15 08:18:00 - [3] I¦d rather be the master of the wonderful Gallente ships then having to turn on something not that beautiful So keep going for BS Lvl 5, that is what i will be doing in the end as soon as i can use Tech2 Large Guns and have done what you did ;) Burzon Gallente rule !

Jim Steele	Posted - 2005.06.15 09:39:00 - [4] Id say galante BS 5, since to make use of another race's ship youd have to do all the gunnary skills for it. You could possibly get away with caldari ships up to cruiser since they use hybrids too but really the Harpy is the only caldari ship worth flying imho. Death to the Galante
Seto Mazzarotto	Posted - 2005.06.15 11:01:00 - [5] Just do what you think will make you happier in the long run. That's all I gotta say. ----------- Fighting for the ideals of freespace, posthuman ethics, and rock & roll. My Insta Idea
Pestily	Posted - 2005.06.15 11:13:00 - [6] well u didnt say u had toned ur nav skills... i say make it so u can use jump drives when they come out so get ur nav lvl 5 and warp drive ops lvl 5 then maybe get the rest of nav to lvl 4... oh and also get galantee bs lvl 5 so u can be all ready for all the requirements when t2 bs's come out... thats what ive done at least. my 2c
darth solo	Posted - 2005.06.15 13:43:00 - [7] i am pretty much in the same position.... 10 mill in gunnery and all other PVP skills to 5, shields, armour and the rest... with nowt left to train for my tempest i went for caldari BS lvl 5 and torps lvl 5.... thats done and im now finding myself training for HACs... i didnt really want to do this, as darth is a battleship pilot... but i dont have much choice... it doesnt really seem possible to specialise in one area... d solo.

Just wait for the missile patch, they were nice enough to give you plenty of new skills to train for your caldari BS
Reiisha	Posted - 2005.06.16 08:23:00 - [9] I'll be training up all race ship skills to 5. Already got all gallente on 5 and all frigs.... But that's just my pet peeve. Gamersland.nl, DE site voor PC gaming!

Given the time that Eve is expected to be around I'd say that training BS lvl 5 now will would be a good idea as it will open up new ship possibilites for you when the new ship classes come out later. Best to get it out the way now than regret it later. I'll be training BS 5 soon after i've completed Cruiser 5
JarmenKell	Posted - 2005.06.16 12:53:00 - [12] im on 10 msp right now , and i do have bs lvl5. its worth it. although i was away for a month, so that kind of helped. but i do think the dreads will only need lvl 4 bs. bs lvl 5 may be for tech 2 bs, if thats going to happen. guesing the cost will be around 800 mills.

Jim Steele	Posted - 2005.06.16 17:01:00 - [15] Originally by: darth solo im a tempest pilot... training caldari skills high doesnt fill me with joy:). Theres always mining skills , anyway back to the tempest dont they use missiles? you could get the missile skills up ready for t2 launchers. They'll probibly follow the same lame tree of needing cruiser and frig weapons trained first and theres always maxing out the learning skills. Death to the Galante
spiralJunkie	Posted - 2005.06.17 05:48:00 - [16] i'm gonna have to go against the grain here. train minni ships. spend some time training up to decent projectiles. the main reason is that all the gun supplementery skills (sharpshooter, and so on) are across the board, so all you have to train is the race specific. it'll take less than training BS5 just to get up to the same level of Minnie as you are with Gallente
Tragar	Posted - 2005.06.17 16:25:00 - [17] i have bs 5 large pulse spec 5 large beam spec 5 :\ im seriously considering training another race soon i already have large proj up to lvl4 for when they used to be uber (hehe poc with 1400's 4tw) so I think ill go minnie :D
Vigilant	Posted - 2005.06.17 18:36:00 - [18] I have all T2 Frigs skills complete... working on HAC pre-reqs... Then all Cruisers to 5
