Obviously for a character that I will get killed a lot during cynos

Because the Legacy Code has too much Psssssssssssssssh, nothing will ever get fixed until CCP stop wasting money on failed sparkle MMOs and instead rewrite the entire backend of EvE from scratch.

This is literally the only thing you need, except to make sure that your character is anything but Amarr (the Impairor does not have enough cargo for a cyno at CFT IV but the other rookie ships do).

Why would you throw it away? Are you only going to cyno once?

I prefer to train them a bit further for moving cynochains around (navigation skills)

I also trained them to all racial frigs 4. I'm no longer sure why tho :)

But if all you do is light cyno's on a station, then I'd stick with Cyno lvl 4 as well.

My cyno alts (got 6) have turned into full-on scouts actually. Covert Ops cloaky, interceptor ability, max PI as well because they've got nothing better to do most of the time (implies cloaky hauler ability).

It's about a year training for each of them. I don't see why a good character slot should go to waste.

Afterburner/MWD skills
Propulsion jamming 1 (for webbing ships after jumping)
Skills to fit cargo expander 1's can be handy to save you mucking about re-fueling your cyno continuously.

That's about it.
