I was reading the original post of this thread but something caught my eye so quickly I didn't even read the beginning.

Arguably, EVE still has stats that govern the speed at which you learn skills but the impact of these is quite minor, with only 33% training time reduction assuming (extremely expensive/impractical) primary/secondary skills at base 27 and the +5 implants. Either way, different attribute sets can be easily governed all by one character by simply using jump clones.

Is this true? If yes, I can remap to Perception/Willpower, create a jump clone, jump into that jumpclone, remap to Intelligence/Memory and voila, I have two clones that I can jump between for the two most popular/useful attribute sets.

I'm just wondering "whats the catch?". For instance, if I do the above example, what if my Perception/Willpower clone dies, will I get into a Intelligence/Memory clone as soon as I wake up just because that was my last remap, or does it depend on the attribute stats of whatever clone you died in?

Sorry for any confusion, it is a bit of a complex question.

this would be news to me.

You're misinterpreting the argument made there, and it isn't helped by the fact that the argument is Roll anyhow.

Basically, they are saying that you can get pretty decent stats by plugging a select few +5s in on different jump clones while maintaining an even remap. It's not technically wrong, but it doesn't lead to anything near optimal training times. And there are better uses for those jump clones anyhow.

So yes, remaps matter. And your remap is the same across clones. But if you do what's suggested, you can have +5s on top of an even remap -- which is almost like having no implants on a specialized remap. Woot.
