Anchoring level 5 is a prerequisite for Starbase Defense Management (manually control POS guns) and Outpost Construction (build player owned stations). Both these skills are pretty cool, however the anchoring skill itself is not. There are several deployable/anchorable structures that require various level of skill in anchoring to use so I would like to suggest some small changes to the skill to make it more attractive...
Change #1
I would like to see these structures added to the "required for" tab of the Anchoring skill's info window. Similarly, I would like to see a requirements tab on Control Towers telling you that you need anchoring level X to anchor the control tower. Mobile Warp Disruptors and some POS modules already have this and it would be a sensible addition to control tower info windows as well as the rest of the POS modules.
Change #2
Give the anchoring skill a "per level" bonus. I suggest "All anchoring, onlining and unanchoring delays are reduced by 5% per level". |

most stuff's like 5 seconds these days (maybe a minute or two). This would have made more sense a few years ago tho...
One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia Malcanis for CSM8 |

I agree it would have been great a couple years ago, but even today I think it would be an improvement. Control towers and bubbles take a long time to (un)anchor/online. External POS modules take time to online too iirc. There's bound to be a few more I'm not remembering or even aware of, but you get the idea. |

true, totally forgot about the towers (set and forget ) One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia Malcanis for CSM8 |

I'll be the first to agree that anchoring/onlining times were pretty obscene way back when. However the current state of being able to anchor defense batteries in seconds and online them in <5 minutes is completely broken.
I agree that the anchoring skill sucks though. Requiring lvl 5 to anchor a tower would be too much. Some first-hand PI tips |

I agree. 5% time reduction would be great and quite reasonable. Mittani, where have you gone to? I miss you :( |

I'd file it as a bug report that things like towers are missing the anchoring skill required in the Prerequisites tab. |

It's an oversight, not a bug. The items don't require Anchoring for operation, but they do require Anchoring to anchor them. Should this still be submitted as a bug report do you think? Mittani, where have you gone to? I miss you :( |

If you want CCP to do something about it, yes, I'd still file a bug report on it. |
