Ive been playing eve for a few months now, just under 8 mil sp. So far im all specced in amarr. The problem is im starting to get kinda bored with lasers and such. .I wanted to cross train to another race, probably gallente or minmatar so i dont have to train up shield tanking.
Should i wait till i master a bit more of the amarr line? or just switch now. Or maybe would you guys suggest outright trading my char for another race's pvp char of the same sp?
Heres my skills

I'm just above 27M specced Amarr and loving it, but, if you really want to change then I'd suggest Gallente for the same reasons you mentioned: common gunnery skills and armour tanking. All you need to train in addition are the hybrids and ship skills.

If you see me post it's because either:
1) Silly forums made me do it
2) Because I was too lazy to change characters
3) Because I wanted to

If amarr are boring you, train something else. If at some stage in the future they start interesting you again, train them again.

i have less than 7M sp.
i was born gallente, but worked and trained for minmatar.
at this point i am excelent at drones, quite good with missiles and gunnery and soon be able to use T2 medium autocannons and artillery. i have some armor tanking skills (will improve em after finishing my T2 gunnery skills) and can use all kind of warfare (not to it's best tho)
oh, and i sit in a minmatar battleship (for PVE only until i actually deal some damage with guns)... if i become rich someways, i'll only need a few days to fly a machariel (gallente&minmatar mixed factionship) tho i'll lack some support skills.
MY SUGGESTION:
look at the faction ships, their bonuses, etc. see what ship you like most (half amarr and half XYZ) and train for that missing faction.
second suggestion would be training for caldari, the raven is right now the best mission running boat, and not too hard to get and to master. missiles are awesome and if you master them, you can use them in other faction ships too.

The lousy answer I give you is that it is entirely up to you. We don't know your true preferences (and you might not know them yourself).
If you think amarr is dull or whatever, do as you suggested and pick another race. All races, however, can do the same things in EVE. Some just do it slightly better or worse, but that does not mean there will be an nber race that will always dominate.

well, i guess u are referring to SHIPS, not CHAR or SKILL... because at the end of the day, an amarrian, minnie or whatever with EXACT same skills and same ship, do EXACTLY the same.
however some ships are better in DPS, some are better in TANK, etc... and here the ship-race makes a difference (tho CCP tries to balance it out... but then, no1 would claim the RAVEN as best PVE mission ship)

Well you have a few options
1 Look at what T2 ships might interest you HAC, Commandship, Inty ect
2 Go Gallente to take advantage of Amarr skills, armor tank ect
3 Stay with Amarr for now and work up secondary skills for Gall/Amarr like Drones, Armor Comp, EWAR ect ect.
Honestly I'd go with number 3 with a little number 1. Train up your secondary skills like Drones, Advanced Weapon Upgrades 4-5, Armor Comps 4-5 Navigation, and the like. All of those skills are real useful no matter what races ship you fly.
At the same time start thinking about what direction you want to go with your toon. You don't have any of the major Spaceship Commands to 5 so you haven't wasted a long time on anything and it would be a short amount of time to get to the same skill level with Gallente or another race.
By that point you should have a decent idea of what T2 ships you might want to try and can start planning to train those pre-reqs with the other skills.
Honestly you're at critical time in your toons life. No wasted effort in major timesinks and a good start in very needed skills. Now is when you need to figure out what you want to do. Spending 25+ days for Amarr cruiser 5 isn't going to be helpful if you decide to go Gall HACs next month.
Train must have skills like AWU 4-5 - Energy Management 5 - Armor Comps 4 that you can use now, figure out what you want to do, get a gameplan together, and plan accordingly.
Doing it this way it's a more efficient use of your training time.
