Hi All,
Made a Caldari -> Achura alt last week and strapped on +3 implants and am rushing learning skills to 4 before I do anything really. I'm still trying to decide if I want to make this one a combat alt or industrial. My main toon (this one) is strictly combat.
One huge influence for making me want another toon is to keep this toon very traditional caldari (ie: missiles and shields) - but the issue here is I reallllllly want to fly a Curse.
Am I crazy to want 2 combat toons? One specializing in NOS & Drones and one specializing in missiles & shields? The last consideration is that if i keep this new toon as industrial I will NOT be mining, more invention and production.

alot of people have 2, reasons why:
your in a wardec corp in low sec, or your a pirate and your sec standing is always low.
Or you just want to do level4s over twice as fast? maybe you want to try fw on one? or have one do missions in a differnt area?
who knows many more than I can think of.. but no I dont think its really odd to have 2 combat toons.

Hey eKuivocal,
I would say the only reason this would be a bad idea is because you will find yourself learning the same skills twice. It is a great idea to have an alt (I have friends with 3 alts) but not for the reason meantioned. You see what you are explaining is basically "I want a caldari toon and a gallente toon". Do some research and you will find only a few small differences in skills needed (both use same guns and everyone needs drones). So the only differences would be your racial ship skills and your tank. We are talking at least 9 months out a year at wasted!
I suggest a better idea, use your alt as your money making carebear, set him up for logistics to bring you stuff when you need it and as a scout for your upcoming ventures to control the skies.
Is it weird to have more than one account? Nope, just makes you more of a nerd, and there is nothing wrong with that!

Go Gallente/Domi all the way; I don't think there's a better/effortless ship to use as an alt that's as useful!
Go the Sentry way and put them on guard/assist... that's an extra 450DPS you don't even have to think about and load up the Domi with Remote Shield Transfers & Remote Energy Transfer. Torp Golem + Remote Boosting Sentrinix = insane dual boxing combo.

A Caldari PvP T2 Cruiser pilot can very easily respec to Amarr; the Curse, Pilgrim and Sacri are all very "Caldari Compatible" - train Amarr Cruiser V & Energy Emission Systems to IV-V and you're good to go as far as the Curse & pilgrim is concerned, assuming you have T2 scout drones already. If you already have good missile skills then the sacri is a no-brainer - just train your armour comp skills to 4.
