So I'm flying around minding my own business, occasionally bursting my AB or MWD and thinking to myself, "sheesh, this ship is slow". Then just completely randomly I happen to see a skillbook, Acceleration Control. This is on a character from 2004!
Trained it up to level 4 pronto and now my toon is quite a bit quicker :).
Anyone else "forgot" about a skill?

Evasive Maneuvers got the best of me for a while before I realized there must have been SOME reason for me still having the slowest align times =[ |

I have two drone-boat alts.
They both are normally in identical PvE Rattlesnakes. I was rather surprised to discover one had slightly less EHP than the other. I thought they were identical. I realized it was a missing hardwiring, so I decide to upgrade all implants. Bought them all, and discovered one alt didn't have Cybernetics 5.
Recently put the alts in identical Dominix for PvP. I was rather surprised to discover same alt was significantly slower than the other. I thought they had identical skills. Turns out one alt didn't have Armor Honeycombing, nor Armor Rigging, nor any armor compensation skills trained for that matter. Oops.
Now if I could just think of something for the other alt to train. |

Same as the OP. Got all the way into flying a Loki before realizing how pathetically slow my prop mods were. |

Same as Tau, I recently jump cloned and bought some +5's to speed along a skill I'm doing. Then realised I didn't have Cyber V.
My 'shortcut' ended up adding a day to the training 
This year I have misinterpreted several skill descriptions, or re-discovered what they do exactly. (Prop mod in fact)

You must be new here, earlier (Before Retribution 1.1) those skills granted small resist while the active shield hardener wasnt active. |

I know that buddy, I was around then. But I have had many discussions with people who still think this is true. |

i think we're derailing this thread to "What ppl think useful skill, but is not..."

Which is only particularly useful if the combined mass of armor plates on the ship is a significant portion of the ship's fitted mass.
E.g. a Loki with two 1600mm T2 plates will benefit from this a lot more than a Megathron with the same.

yeah armour honeycombing doesnt actually do that much until you're adding at least 2 1600mm plates on your ship. Armour rigging in almost all cases will give you back more speed per level compared to honeycombing.
Also on topic: didnt know about security connections until I had like 280k LP with the corp I was doing mission for. |

It used to be a prerequisite for Capital Shield Booster, until CCP changed it due to complaints of how terrible actually training it to V is. |

Had "every" missile skill, why my missile not go as far?
I had missile bombardment but forgot projection, whoops.
Missile slinging is much better now. |

Threads like this remind me of why my training of every skill I can get my hands on to L2 is such a good idea.  |

Mixing up "guided missile precision" with "auto-targetting missiles".
Or overlooking "weapon upgrades/advanced" while being a missile focussed noob. |

That skill does NOTHING, except to serve as a prerequisite for modules.
