I'm a few months old now, and i'm looking to specialise in missiles as i'm caldari. Question is, what are the best skills to be concentrating on to get the most out of missiles with the least training?
My current missile skills are;
Defender Missiles 1
Heavy Missiles 4
Missile Bombardment 4
Missile Launcher Operation 4
Missile Projection 3
Rapid Launch 3
Rockets 1
Standard Missiles 3
Warhead Upgrades 1
So what am i best doing/concentrating on next?

depends on what missiles u use. I would suggest, to not skill defenders. what could help u (in pvp) are fof missils, they are really worth it, especially fighting a scorpion filled with multi jammers :) otherwise train for what missiles u want use and skills with lower ranks first.

Yeah, i should of omitted the defenders and rockets really, they just happen to be there.
I should mention i mainly run missions and rat, problem is, it takes me about 20 odd mins and about 5-600 heavy missiles to kill a single level 4 BS :( and that includes using nos and 5 specific light drones with interfacing 3 and combat 2.

Rapid Launch 3 <-- lvl4
Warhead Upgrades 1 <-- must be min. lvl4, one of the best missile skills, increase dmg for all missile type (from rockets to torp)
target navigation prediction <-- i have it at lvl4 but in pvp it's a worthless skill, the most ceptors are faster and when you want to kill them, take a webber. for pve its worth this skill.

rapid launch 4 is on my list, and so is warheads 4, but thats only 2% per level, how can it be so important?

Trust me, it's worth training. It might seem small, but every little bit helps.

Originally by: Rapid Launcher Proficiency at rapid missile launcher firing. 3% bonus to missile launcher rate of fire per level.

The skill to increase dmg on smaller ships is VERY VERY good. You need missile launcher 5 for it... but it's worth it.
I personally hate the idea of spending a month to get Cruise Missile to 5 or Heavy Missile to 5... seems painful to waste so much time on any skill when I've only played for 2.5 months total and have over a billion ISK already. I can't believe I need to spend 30% of my entire play time again to get a single skill up.

You dont HAVE to train it. You can train something else. And it's about 13 days for me, with a relatively normal set of attributes. The jump from XR-3200 Launchers to T2 Launchers will boost my DPS by about 10%-15% alone, I should think, especially when you consider I'll train the speciialisation up for an eventual +8% ROF. -- Interseted in skills?

it takes that long as CCP want you over a barrel so you can keepgiving them money. one day they may give out stribure points to player as a reward but i think it will need to be empty befor they do that as they think its fun haveing skills that take everal months to just upgrade 1 level ------------------------------------ fix eves industrial sector!

Train them all....
I wouldnt be overly bothered about defenders, rockets, or lights or torps. Get heavy and cruise to 5 and specialisation in both to 4 or 5. Also all the tracking, speed and damage modifying skills, get them all to 5 asap. I have almost 8 million skillpoints just i missiles now, and I reckon I am 'almost close' to being a missile specialist.
Cruise are the most versatile missile and you will be usingthem 99% of the time, they will take out anything from interceptors to stations, and at 500+ dammage a hit they work well too ;-)

Missile Launcher Operation to 5 so you can get Guided Missile Precision.

Guided Missile Precision is a must with Cruise or they will suck against small/fast targets. Target Navigation Prediction also helps alot. Keep in mind stacking Ballistic Controls helps immensely, preferably TechII. I am at 4.5mil SP in Missiles and I can get 615hp with high damage cruise and a 7.8 rate of fire on Tech II launchers by stacking three BCS II's and I am working on improving those numbers now. Can't wait to get my hands on some Dread Guristas Cruise Launchers.

Dont forget that you can't use tech II missiles in Dread Guristas launchers, or any other named/faction/officer launcher for that matter.
