There are no longer any skills that reduce training time. Depending on how focused your training is, it might benefit you to remap your attributes, but you can't do that very often and would want to make sure you get significant benefit for a long period of time by planning to train skills with similar attribute pairs.

Otherwise, yes, you can get some implants. That will help.

Though 26 days for a skill to 4 seems really, really long. It would only take me 23 days to take a 5x skill that goes against my remap to 5. Check those numbers again.

yeah it was a skill to 5, not 4. but still 26 days is a long time.

It's actually not. When you start getting up to the higher multiplier skills... it just takes that long. You just buckle in for the long haul and see if you can avoid the temptation of slipping in a skill or two in the meantime.

I have skills I could train right now that are 50-60 days. And I am not even a capital pilot. there are skills that take 3-4 months to get to 5. 20-30 days is very normal once you have all the rank 1 and 2 skills out of the way.

Always try to look on the bright side, at least after training a skill for 26 days, any skill that is 10,6, or 3 days seems like a cake walk.

I'm a nerd, you can check my stats!! Skilling Int/Mem at 45 sp per minute is how I mack!     I'm like a lapdog, all bark no bite.

here is how I make 25+ day trains eaiser to deal with....


Usually these are for expensive ships. My soon to be upcoming one will be a second BS 5 (yes, 2nd one lol). It will be setup for minny carriers (I am thinking they are do fo some love at some point and I just like the look of em). also gets me vargur (can do golem already). 2? days of train gets me lots of time to make the isk to buy the vargur. i have the money now but I'd like to call it savings. So a month of training, I roll to jita at some point and the more I make the less savings I hit for the buy.

For a new player not so rich....that 2? days is waht I call obey eve commandment #1 time: don't fly what you can't afford to lose. If vargur (or other marauder) a goal, but a goal you need to sell you current isk make to buy, probably doing something wrong. 2?+ days of bs 5 lots of time so you too can roll up to jita and not need to sell your current money maker.

Because, well, its eve. Worst case your new sexy uber bs gets popped week 1 and now you are hurting isk wise. have the old money maker its get back up, hit that money maker and carry on a bit more jaded and bitter and wiser (hopefully). Don't have that old money maker....gratz, gtc/plex conversion ot get isk now now or back to level 3/4 in bc's for you lol.



well that and chances are reall good in the 2? train time you will fly your current ship much better the more you do it. tose real life skills will help not make the the new ride diaf as fast most of the tme.
