EVE General Discussion

To be honest I actually spend more time in one month trained alts than I do in my battleship owning main. Even then my main logs way more time in Assault Frigates and Interceptors than a battleship.

I recently re-ran Bloodstained Stars (its a once every 3 months arc) and despite owning multiple cruisers, battle-cruisers and battleships from pretty much every faction, I redid the whole arc this time in a T1 artie thrasher (admittedly with T2 artillery ) becasue it would be way more fun that way. next time I think I will do it in a Wolf or a Firetail or possible an interceptor.

This game is not WoW and is NOT about accumulating SP as fast as possible. If you really want huge SP just earn or plex some ISK and go to the character bazaar and buy a character with several years training up.

Do not get obsessed with skill training, if you forget to update your skills its not the end of the world, if you go away for a month and unsub for 4 weeks you are not nerfing your character and having a 3 or 4 week train ahead may be a good thing if it means you play the game rather than micromanage the skill queue.

Another resounding, No!

I think that we can all agree that my training times should be faster but as a general rule training times for everyone else are fine.

Perhaps some individual skills can use mulitipkier adjustments, but I cant think of any offhand.

Excdpt perhaps the difference between T2 and T3 Cruiser training time, for example, seems off to me personally (but this is perhaps prejudiced by how diverse T3 Cruisers are and multiplied by the fact that thet are also really good at any number of those diverse functions, therefore not related to skilling time, but rather the effectiveness of the two classes in comparison to each other.)

More A than B, but that's CCP call to make since it's only in their head that it's obvious what their intentions are. Overall, I believe skill training speeds are in a good spot. In particular cases, some skills could use tweaking of multipliers, or of requirements. For example: Weapon Upgrades V -> Advanced Weapon Upgrades; changing that requirement to IV would remove a high time investment necessary relatively early in people's careers, removing some "required boilerplate" training.

Please dock OP 50,000 SP for this idea. Or, to make it fair, take away 50k SP from all of us and in the launcher news ask players to evemail and chat OP thanking him for posting.

Or just double my SP.

By the way, did you not consider more SP = more podkills in an un-upgraded clone to get those SP down to 900k? A big advantage, imho.

funny one, nice kid.

But we're all in this for the shiney spaceship toys, aren't we?

I like how people feel entitled to more stuff.
