Skill Discussions

I understand that before even beginning to answer some of these questions there is a lot of "depends on what you want to do". I would like some advice on where to take my accounts training because I am not sure what would complement each other the best.

I am currently using 3 accounts as a mining operation. 1 Orca 2 hulks (no you can't ask where). So the accounts are as follows:

I would like to focus these these pilots into being trained into their best rolls based off the skills they are already trained in so that I would not be doing a whole lot of cross training (but I am willing if needed).

1. The Orca Pilot
-This pilot has just come online as an Orca pilot and is still working on some t2 defense stuff as well as core comp standard skills. That being said, I am not sure what to do with this account. Obviously I should continue to make it the best Orca pilot possible. Once that is achieved, is there anything that Orca skills can move into. Are there any rolls in Eve that match this or would I be looking at cross-training.

2. The Hulk Pilot 1
-This was a lvl 4 mission running pilot turned mining alt. It can fly Caldari and Minmatar BS with t2 defense and min at t2 weapons. I would like to build this up as my shield combat pilot. I am looking at moving into perhaps a Tengu and I am immediately planning on training covert ops for just fun cloaking around. This pilot I have a pretty good plan for, but please feel free to offer up any advice on future goals.


3. The Hulk Pilot 2
-This pilot was a mining/trade/manufacturing alt to begin with but once I got to where I wanted I began to train Amarr and Gallente skills in cruiser/BC. I had originally thought this character might fly a Freighter but Push X has been doing a great job so I am less inclined for that so I really have no way to direct this character.


Hulk Pilot 1 is doing most of the standard combat training. Where as I am not sure If I should move towards more capital ships with some of my other characters or do some other focus.


If I have been too vague in my goals please let me know and I can try to answer questions

I am actually taking my combat pilot that direction now. What types of things can one expect to do in scanning/cov-ops roles? I am looking into joining a corp at some point, so solo is really a forever thing.

Thanks Raven, that gives me some good info to look at. Especially the orca pilot alternate roles
