marauders skill


Same here marauders lvl 5 and marauders lvl 4 on main... Now while i run mission i use tengu as dps tank + naga dps support... Also i dont like ship unification... Meny ship lose own roles because new shiny toys are better, also same happens to destroyers while CCP introduce noctis, and usage of industrals when CCP give to us orca, a super hauler.

Bullshit. I thought so too, until last year when my CEO (Arazu) tackled and damped a Tengu in a belt. I engaged the Tengu in my Purifier, also with a damp fitted, pretty sure I stayed around 42-43 km range. Suddenly I just explode, out of nowhere.

Yes, Tengu pilot hads FoF's, and the combination of me feeling safe not being locked + flying a SB with no buffer made him one volley me. I am quite sure he was happy he trained FoF + carried it with him, that day. Since then I even bothered training mine up from lv1 to higher version, and I do bother to carry FoF myself as well.

"Advanced Spaceship Command" to lvl 4 with 7 mil SP and no industrial intensions. RTFM, sigh!

I have a few things I wish Id not done or similar.

I'm happy I trained PI skills before CCP broke PI bigtime. My 8 char robotics operation went down the pan...So now they're a waste. 10 billion profit from that so its not too sore a loss.

Mining barge 5 along with its industry counterparts...total utter waste of SP for anyone who's not a hardcore miner.

A shed load of science skills I've injected and never trained back when I was a noob and not accustomed to making my skill sheet look sexy.

On the flip side what's the 2 best non Spaceship command skills you have?

Surgical strike 5
Evasive manoeuvring 5

These 2 skills have a profound effect from 4 to 5 and I love them.

So you're close to an orca for all your tiny-ship-hauling needs…

SP is never wasted — just temporarily left unused. Blink

Personally I wish I had completely stayed away from everything in the industry tree and Mining Barge/exhumer. I thought I'd train up for a Hulk so I could make loads of ISK. I had completely forgotten about incursions for some strange reason and so I did it.

Worst waste of time ever.



Well you're in luck now. I heard mining will be the moneymaker after Escalation

This thread just lost its cool.

Back on topic ... Ethnic Relations.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

This. Miner with 10mil SP in guns reporting. Big smile

I wouldn't say it's wasted SP, but currently Ethnic Relations is quite useless for my main.

12.4m in missles here and I only ever shoot them while flying a curse. Similarly with the 3.8m in Caldari spaceship command.. never used, except that one time when I needed a Falcon to break RR. Still, that's not wasted SP. It could come in handy some day. The more options you have available the better.

What is wasted is the Laboratory Operation trained in my first month playing. That was dumb.

And Industry 1 and Mining 1. I never trained them, they just bother me.
