The Research Agent skills -- I have about 18 mos. of datacores stockpiled and they're still not worth picking up. Though I do get why passive income is bad for the game and the price nerf.

Oddly enough, there is something strangely disturbing about the truth behind this statement. Big smile

I see your refining V and raise you all of the individual ore refining skills to V as well. P

By that definition, none.

By a completely different one, Astrometric Rangefinding. Not because it's a bad skill, but because it was an unpleasant surprise. The general principle for learning skills on this character is that she is supposed to be able to fit all pieces of equipment that could possibly go on any of the ships she can fly. With the revamped scanning system came the new scanning upgrades, the T2 variants of which all require the skill at V.

…so suddenly I had to train Astrometric Rangefinding to V… and it's a rank 8 skills. For one module. Definitely qualifies as “worst skill”.

None that I've injected and trained myself. But mining and industry came with the char at level 1 and I hate those. My one wish would be to have them removed. Lol

The worst skill I trained?
Advanced Weapons Upgrades V because this skill goes on and on like forever. Unfortunately, those 2% PG are so very, very important. And usually absolutely needed exactly at the worst possible moment.

The most useless skill I trained?
Amarr Drone Specialization IV. So far, I never once used Amarr drones. Then again, I never used Caldari drones either (for which I have the Drone Specialization at Level IV as well) but at least Caldari drones are not utterly useless.
Well, I got a the Specialist Drone Operator Standard Certificate out of it. And the hope that CCP rebalances drones eventually.
There is a rumor that CCP just confused the different drone stats so it actually should not be that difficult to implement. But whatever...

Amarr drones aren't that bad. If you use them together with energy neutralizers, EM damage lets them eat quickly through a shield tank once you have switched off the hardeners.

Most useless skill for me was Astrogeology V. Took me a little longer to realize how much I hate mining Oops

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

Hell, you could even just have an iPad or iPhone or iPod Touch with a remote desktop app on it.

Skill training from anywhere with internet (or 3G/4G if you have the data plan)

as for skill? I think the trade skills besides the broker and tax ones, cause I only ever have maybe 3 sell/buy orders up at any one time since late 2008. And I only ever have maybe 2 contracts active at any one time too.
