So I've just recently gotten my dessy and battlecrusier skills to 5, and I am curious if CCP will split even more skills into racial skills. for example things like marauders and heavy assault ships.

let me know what you think.

Would be no benefit to further split advanced hulls other than perhaps offer faster new player specialization if the racial advanced skill is 1/4 the current SP cost.

Racial dessy and battlecruiser is at-least setting up the future for possible pirate cross trained hulls, not just an linear advancement standard.

They already said they weren't. As for if that is how it'll always be, time will tell.

Who's the more foolish the fool or the fool who replies to him?

They're called "Large Hybrid Turret", "Large Energy Turret", "Large Projectile Turret", and "Torpedoes".

I think he meant like now, instead of "gunnery" we have "amarr gunnery" and they drop "small energy turrets" and slightly increase training time for "pulse energy weapons & beam energy weapons" making them no longer specializations, but their own standalone weapon type. aswell as removing the skills such as "rapid firing" and make it "rapid firing - energy weapons (coudlnt come up with a better name)".

though honestly, i doubt CCP would do something that follish and tedious.
