Hey guys,

After playing for a year or so and getting my skills to a basic level of what I need I'm wondering what direction to go next?

Should I train the Int/Mem skills first? Pro's: this would benfit all the ships I currently fly. Con's: no new ships

Or the Per/Wis skills? Pro's: New ships sooner. Con's: Won't be able to fly effectively until after Int/Mem remap...

Kinda decided on the Int/Mem rempas but was just after other input?

Cheers

With one year under your belt, it is time you can do an intel/mem map.
This does not mean you can't open up a gun or ship here and there, it just means you won't be efficient at that.

You didn't say if your shield or armor, but I recommend doing both at this time. Capacitor skills, a few Rigging skills, Nav, Electronics. All those can keep you busy for a year easy.

It is possible you wouldn't need this remap again for....years, if you do it right this time.

Already have shield and armor skills at 4 plus most electronics/engineering/mech/nav at 4.

Thanks for the input, intel/mem it is then :)

I'd say stick to a allrounder. A lot of people goes into dedication mode when they start eve and play it for the first year and then they fall off because they can't skill what they want. If you start a second account you can specialize, but it's quite risky for your motivation.
There will be months where you just skill engineering and armor/shield and at times it will just feel pointless because you just heard about this cool ship that you want to fly but skilling towards it feels even worse because you are wrongly mapped. Play for fun and don't make it into a choir until you actually understand the concept of locking yourself away for a year or two in one mapped skill plans.
you might, so go a head, but so many people fall off just because of that reason, they are simply not ready

At first i would concentrate on staying alive so get your tanking skills to 5 and then focus on damage and range with your hybrids
