I use this toon for all combat stuff. My 2nd account I use for hauling, mining and salvaging, and a little manufacturing. Not sure what else to start training. Any advice? For those of you with a Combat main account, and a 2nd account, what are you mainly doing with it?

Covert ops scout.
Falcon
Logistics ships.

That's what I trained my alt for a couple of years ago.

I have 3 accounts actually

1 Pilot (me) started as a Caldari, Missile, Shields focus. BS and Mission skills Eventually went on to Caldari Caps, Nav skills, Drones, and now multi-cross-trained

2nd Pilot I wanted exactly the opposite. So it was Guns, Armor, All Sub caps. Leadership, some Drones, No missions. (no standings issues other than piracy on occasion) Even though that character is a year younger, I consider it to be a better pilot.

3rd Pilot is somewhat industrial, with JF skills, Perfect Probe and Leaderships, T2 Salvager, Codebreaker, Analyzer, etc.

What you DON'T WANT, is 2 pilots that do the exact same thing.

the way of the falcon leads to cowardice, cowardice leads to shame, shame leads to anger.

and anger leads to the dark side.

Yeah, Since I had gotten my 2nd accounts mining to the Hulk level, and Salvaging perfect, my new goal was so it could fly a ship big enough to transport my ships whenever I got bored of a certain place and wanted to move. (Orca? or bigger?). After that, I just wasn't sure where to go. I guess I could continue honing her Indy skills.

Anyways, thanks for the input.

Made my second account explicitely for the Claymore. Other FCS, logis and orca fell into place with that. Leadership skills are always in demand, and take a while to train up perfectly, where everyone wants them.

I have a lot of covops alts, a few orca toons and the rest are PVP toons that fill different roles.
