Want to make a better incursion runner

I quit eve several years ago and recently decided to give it another go. As I no longer have access to my old account, I made a new one and bought some injectors to try and get back to about where I was before I quit. Realizing that I don't make enough money to support that habit, I'm going to try and avoid buying anymore Plex for the foreseeable future.

That being said, I am currently running incursions. I decided early on when I came back I wanted to fly the machariel and it turns out they do quite well in incursions. I'm at a point where I can survive and dish out a decent amount of DPS, but I want to be better and not clog up my skill training queue with a bunch of worthless skills. So basically, looking at my character, what would you train/focus on for the immediate future. After the skill I'm currently training, I'm getting cybernetics to 5 for a few more implants I need for incursions, other than that I was thinking of focusing on drones unless you see something else I need to do first.

Thanks for any insight.

I would advise:

Get Thermodynamics to V.(For contests)
Get the two Nanite repair skills to V. ( Likewise)
Get CPU management to V.
Get Drone supports to V and specializations to IV.

these should be the top priorities for you.

When you get your cybernetics stuff done, map attributes for ships n guns. Get your gunnery support skills to V and Gallente BS to V.
They'll help with the Mach, but also help with a Vindi and other great ships.
I think that perception/willpower map is *decent* for drone training as well., and yeah get the drone stuff first.
You could probably stay on that map for a year or two. Ships, Drones, Guns, Basic Missiles.

Your old account:
I think you could contact CCP and get that access sorted out. Unless you were banned, I'd give that a go and put both characters on one account if you can't afford two.

Thanks for the input guys. Definitely will do a remap as well.

As far as my old account goes, I tried contacting them and haven't made any progress on that front. Like haven't heard anything, and while it sucks, I'm having just as much fun if not more now. Even if I did get it back, I'd probably just extract all it's skills and make it into an sp farm toon. It was a caldari/missle/mission runner with decent skills but now that I'm doing incursions I don't much care for missions. It could maybe be a dropper/hacker fairly easily though. We will see.
