Because there's new groups now, can CCP please standardize the primary and secondary attributes again? Some skills are out of place, like Adv. Weapon Upgrades needs perception and willpower, while everything else in that group is intelligence and memory.

Each group before the regrouping that CCP did had each group require the same primary and secondary skills. It'd be nice if this could happen again.

not all skills had identical requirements before. trade and PI never shared the exact same primary and secondaries.

and i dnt see any reason why they must be the same within a group

this is part of the reward for effort that EVE shows - you take the time to check which skills require which attributes, and optimize accordingly, you train faster, you make a mostly correct assumption and optimize accordingly, you don't train quite so fast, you don't make any assumptions (spread attributes), you train at the standard rate, you make an incorrect assumption, you train slowly
in other words, I vote down
but I can see where you're coming from

For posting an idea into F&I: come up with idea, try and think how people could abuse this, try to fix your idea - loop the process until you can't see how it could be abused, then post to the forums to let us figure out how to abuse it..... If your idea can be abused, it [u]WILL[/u] be.

Everything doesn't need to be changed, but it's clear that AWU has PER/WIL because it used to be in the Gunnery group, rather than because of any logical reason. As a support skill, logic strongly suggests INT/MEM or MEM/INT.
