Actually....it can. They can give you a PO2 offer every six months. Which is just enough time to build a focused T3 pilot for sale with under an hour of actual time logged in.

Mr Epeen Cool

Do you actually break even doing that, though?


In terms of PLEX, you spend five and make twelve to fourteen. A little better than break even, I'd say. I can't think of many other activities in the game that pay six billion ISK per hour of game time logged in.

Interesting. I might have to try that then.

The only things I think needs to be done with skills and attributes is a good detailed tutorial on them for new players and a sort by attribute function on the skill list.

I read the OP, but I don't see any real isues. At best some areas could use new skills to beef their numbers, but that's not much of an issue.

I really don't see an issue here. As in almost everything in EVE you have to work for it. Same goes for skill training. I want it to be somewhat tough. That way I have a greater sense of accomplishment.

Sure there are probably more efficient ways to do it but that would equate to making it faster and easier. This game was already dumbed down enough, but that is just my opinion.

Am I the only person that had just balanced out my attributes, and then all but forgot they existed; especially since I'm never sure exactly which direction I might decide to train from month to month?

Well it does suck for gal pilots.

Also there is no clear definition between in the attributes and careers. What is navigation doing?!

It is no where close to being balanced.

Kind of funny how a legitimate concern is derailed. Remaps aside, when you add up how many skills fit under each stat, that number is not even at all. Which harms some more than others. Some stats there's just no way to justify having them as your main stat for an entire year, which can slow down certain skill trainings. Its something that can be adjusted to of course, but its yet another learning barrier... likely the harshest of them actually. Thankful they got rid of those abysmal learning skills though. Could use some work still though, like as cheese kind of stated, maybe some clear link between attributes and career.
