For reconships you also want at least level 4 recon if not 5 due to the range of heavy neuts on battleships.
Those are just 2 examples i can think of by ships i fly when i try to find pvp in this game.
Both those skills take around 25 days to learn which is a very long time.
ok I know I'm spaming posts but ehatever. I am a logi pilot with 45 million sp, and you have no idea what you're talking about. Getting logi 5 is important, and you do need it to be a good pilot. But getting to level 5 logi only takes 30 days or so. So one month. You don't need all of the shield rep skills at level 5, that extra 5% will not keep anyone alive. Sure I got them after a while, but I was great logi pilot even without them. I have like what, 3 losses of logi ships?
I've flown in 100s of combat situations. but if you know what your doing and your team does what it should, you'll never lose a logiship.
you keep each other alive, and your team keeps tacklers off you at all costs. The sp is not important.
You disagree with me yet you confirm what i posted.
30days of training 1 skill to level 5 is a very long time and is like you said very important.
Therefor you agree with me that skillpoints are very important in pvp, because you can not disagree with that you cant pvp with a logistics when your skill at level 2 or 3.
And yes you need to know what you are doing only thats normal.
In pvp situations like in the tounament you have teams who practice on live servers so they know what to do.
Its the same thing with gear/skill in other mmo's, sure your gear can be superior but if you fail you lose anyway.
However in high end gaming where mistakes are rare the gear in those games and in eve they are skillpoints are a very important part of the outcome of the fight.
But this discussion isnt about pvp in general its about the characters in the tournament.
It seems when ccp does a marketing event to send out a bunch of dev is premade characters they have no problems giving these characters all skills to 5.
However when it comes to a official tournament its to much effort for them to make premade characters.
That is probably the reason why there arent premade characters.
