Hi all .

Just wondering if any of you think I might have missed any thing rather vital to my skills .

Mostly loving Drones , tanking , not so sure about gunnery .

I like an occasional Mission run and long walks on around the station.

Generally not playing that much but still skilling so any input of glaring omissions appreciated .

Not overly sure of where to aim for next . Over tanking a rattle at the mo , bit slow but gets the job done .

Cheers in advance for any help ! Big smile

Ele .

PS . I know skills are a bit low in comparison to age but took a rather large break for a while . Also remapped for drones at the moment .

From the skill sheet and the vague ideas in the OP about preferred activities I'd say it looks like a reasonably skilled Rattlesnake/Nightmare pilot that never leaves high sec. If the plan is to more or less stay that way I'd look seriously at skilling into a Machariel to round out the collection and perhaps consider Marauders.

There's plenty to pick up along the way though. Social skills could be better on a mission character. Gunnery supports are good but could be perfect; missile supports need work. Not sure why navigation is so low in general. Would definitely add more rigging skills (the other weapon rigging skills at the least).

Of course you could easily take this in a totally different direction and plan to leave high sec and do something else, but it's hard to know that given current skills and description.

Since your loving drones and are remapped for them at the moment. I'd suggest going for t2 heavies. Train Heavy Drone Operation to V and the racial drone specializations to IV. Also since your a drone user train Electronic Warfare Drone Interfacing to at least IV since it gives you an extra 3000m of drone control range per level.

If I were you, I'd train a few skills that everybody should have at IV or V and which are very short. In no particular order except the first one:

-DUDE, YOU DON'T HAVE ACCELERATION CONTROL AND HIGH SPEED MANEUVERING INJECTED. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER YOU ARE PLAYING, WORKING, GIVING CPR TO YOUR GRANNY OR JUMPING YOUR WIFE'S BONES. QUIT WHAT YOU ARE DOING, LOG IN, PURCHASE THOSE SKILLBOOKS AT THE CLOSEST SALES ORDER REGARDLESS OF THE PRICE AND INJECT THEM NAO. Then, please breath again and see that, finally, the Universe is back to working as it should.
-Fuel conservation IV or V.
-Long range targetting V
-Rapid firing V
-Surgical strike V

And since your weird Spaceship Command tree suggests you might be a Rattlesnake mission runner, I'd recommend Missile Projection V as well.

Honestly, your character is the first one I see that can't even fit a goddamned T1 microwarpdrive in a frigate.

Seems weird that Social skills were suggested, as well as Marauders and crosstraining to a Machariel, but nobody mentioned the MWD.

gee whiz, what's the hurry? (hums alabama song)

However, he does have a point about the gunnery skills. =) they do make a pretty nice difference. But if he's in a rattlesnake, wouldn't that mean missiles?
