Guys. They were very clear about this.

SKILLS:

Destroyer and Battlecruiser reimbursement: it has been said before, but allow us to repeat again, that we do not want to cut ships you can already fly. Thus, having BC skill at 5 would mean you get all four variations at 5.


I'll just paste that again in bold and underlined. having BC skill at 5 would mean you get all four variations at 5

Here it is again, with italics. You know, to be sure. having BC skill at 5 would mean you get all four variations at 5

And here with more details.

  • Q: can we opt out for skills we don't want during the reimbursement process?

    • A: well, again, it depends on how it is done. We may just bluntly give all four variants at V if you had battlecruiser V for example, or maybe require that you also add the relevant Cruiser skill trained at level 3 to be eligible. On the latter case, just don't train the cruiser 3 skill, and you should not receive the new racial battlecruiser at 5. Not sure why one would do that however, it's like skipping free candy or cake while visiting your grandma.

    Example:
  • If we go for option 1: you will get Amarr, Caldari, Gallente and Minmatar Battlecruiser skills at 5 if you previously had the generic Battlecruiser skill at 5.
  • If we go for option 2: you will get Amarr Battlecruiser skill at 5 only if you previously fulfilled all conditions to fly Amarr Battlecruisers, which means having the generic Battlecruiser skill at 5, PLUS the Amarr Cruiser at 3.

    • To remind it again, there are other options to consider, but no matter which one which choose, you won't lose anything out of the skill reimbursement plan.


    Again. We may just bluntly give all four variants at V if you had battlecruiser V for example, or maybe require that you also add the relevant Cruiser skill trained at level 3 to be eligible.

    Interesting, but are the battlecrusiers slated for the 1.3 inferno or later?

    I thought they are focusing on the mining frigate + the other frigates now and cruisers / bc are coming sometime in spring/next summer?

    Edit:

    Took a peak into the devblogs and found this... Destroyes and BC are not slated for updates in this winter patch.

    As an additional note and a follow-up from our previous balancing Dev Blog, we believe it is good for you to know we will not be changing the Destroyer / Battlecruiser skills for the winter expansion – such changes are to come only after these two ship classes have been properly rebalanced.
