Hello there

I am looking what skills I should train to doing significant dmg with pulse laser (also with good accuracy and falloff but mainly dps)

It takes a huge amount of time to train pulse lasers T2 ...will it worth it??

Train all gunnery support skills (that are the one, that are not specific to one weapon group), small/medium/large energy weapons 5, small/medium/large pulse laser specialization 4, the right ship for your weapon of choice.

It will worth, ahacs and hellcats are awesome.

You have to train small and mediums to V first, because they are the prerequisites for large. And especially for lasers, T2 is not worth it, it's an absolute must as lasers live from scorch.

First, train all gunnery support skills to IV (dont forget controlled bursts) and after that the corresponding weapon skills until T2 large. After that, the remaining gunnery support to V if you want to/dont have anything more important to skill.

Regarding diplomatic skills, there are connection skills that let you gain standing faster towards a corp/agent and the diplomacy skill that raises bad standing towards a faction a bit. You should decline faction specific missions though if you plan to do lots of missions because it adds up over time and diplomacy won't save you after 100's of faction missions done.

Just to clarify.

Try checking large pulse specialization skills prereq's etc, in order to figure out why you need to train the smaller guns. Guns and missiles have different training paths.

Your lack of thermodynamics, paste and booster skills is disturbing.

Agreed with the wisdom posted already. I'm afraid to praise Scorch too much for fear it'll get the dreaded 'OP' tag on the forums and CCP will nerf it because people actually use it. But yeah, Scorch simply does outstanding damage at range and at least for smaller size guns- is worth training for T2 guns. (remember that T2 crystals have a finite life)

He asked for _dmg_ not for general support skills.
