ccp should let us bitter old vets train a select few skill to level 6. I dont wanna waste time training mining and industry stuff, I think this would be a great in practice. Maybe make the level 6 take a couple of months to train etc. It would be worth it imo.

+1 to this. Adding an additional skill level and corresponding bonus would surely be simplicity itself in terms of coding.

The thorny question is, which skill or skills?

Yeah, there should be the skills for an elite players.

It's might be something not for a big efficiency like engineering, but something you train just because you can and don't give a damn. Like buying a monocle...

in 2007 i've thought it's a sci-fi simulator, not an "e-sports" game. I'm not a teenager, how would i like it much?

Might be usefull, but the question i'm asking myself is also wich skills can these apply too?.....I mean if we apply a level 6 to a super carrier, you end up being able to deploy 23 fighters or fighter bombers or do it in a titan, and you have 125% extra damage from the main turrets, wich would surpass the damage that a dread does in siege mode.


Then there's the other issue to consider, like hardwirings and there's plenty of those covering quite a lot of technical aspects, regardless of what one does in eve above all else, and since isk is earned far faster than training some skill to rank 6 for several weeks, most might take the implant option anyhow.....So no hardwirings can exist for the skills in question, and they have to be worth the trouble to train to rank 6 even if it is a long skill to train, but without making the ship overpowered in the process.

The big problem with level 6 is it would require a complete reworking of certain ship and skills bonuses, which in some cases rather obviouly balances around 5 being as high as you can go. Titan was already mentioned, a few others are Drones (woot 6 drones out, changing balance for ships with oversized bays), Drone interfacing, te amarr navy slicer, all the recons have a "oversized" bonus, those 90% webs go to 96% webs now basically doubling their effectiveness.All these case would be need to be rethought, plus countless others I have not considered.

Take a look at all of his T2 ship skills. All of his non-racial ship skills (except ORE Industrial) are very close to level 5.

125% extra damage from the main turrets( not the doomsday itself), is pretty nice.....You end up doing the same damage as a dread in siege mode, but without needing to be stuck in siege and able to warp or jump at anytime, and can kill a battleship in a single volley, like they were frigates...
