Skill Discussions

Hello,

My name is Roman Hex and I am having some difficulties with my Navy Raven skills. I've been flying the Navy Raven for about a year now and I am head over heels in love with this ship.

I am having some issues fitting every slot on the ship. I believe that this problem is due to my skills.


I currently have CPU cap of 1,005.7 with 15.9 to spare.
I currently have a Power Grid cap of 15,472.5 with 4,162.3 to spare.


Here is the link to my Character: http://eveboard.com/pilot/Roman_Hex

Goal: I'd like some information on what skills I can train to increase my CPU cap or skills to train that will decrease my fittings need for CPU usage.

I believe that I have enough Power Grid to fill the last open spot for my fit. However, I don't have enough CPU space to fit anything else in my "Mid Slot."

Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Roman Hex

No I am not kidding. Every player is different and has different skills trained. I posted all my information because I am interested in getting help.

Thank you though.

Like RavenPaine said, linking your fit might help to decide what's good for you (including suggesting different fits maybe).

Looking at your profile now...
on first glance:
You should hide your wallet and your implants ...
Your attributes seem to be suboptimal... not sure why you put 24/24 in Perception/Willpower... it's almost always better to go max Perception and rest Willpower (or max Int and rest Mem for support skills)...
You are training Salvaging to L4 atm, but Salvaging L3 is all you need ... actually Salvaging L2 is all you need...

digging deeper:
Armor/Hull Upgrades - you want this at L5;
Drones/Drone Interfacing - you want this at L5 to get the most of your drones, but it's not top prio, imho;
Drones/Drone Navigation - you want this at L5... it's quick to train and your drones will be on their targets faster;
Drones/Gallente and Minmatar Drone Spec - get both to L3, Hobgoblins and Warriors are your primary drones;
Engineering/Weapon Upgrades - get this to L5... takes some time but it's worth it... not top prio atm, imho;
Engineering/Thermodynamics - you should get this to L3 at least, better to L4 ... overheating can save your ship, not only in PvP;
Navigation/Evasive Maneuvering - get this to L5 rather sooner than later... 5% improved agility is worth it (plus it unlocks Interceptors);
Rigging/Launcher Rigging - get this to L5 asap if you use launcher rigs... makes a huge difference and might be the reason why you have fitting problems;
Social/Security Connections - I assume you're a mission runner, so train this to L4, maybe L5 to max LP gain;
Spaceship Command/Caldari Battleship - get this at least to L4, it's very worth it... L5 takes some time, so I would postpone that a bit.

On a sidenote, you might want to train into some other ships just for fun, so you don't get bored with your one trick pony.

Hope this helps.

General minimum: You want at least level 4 in every skill for every module & rig fitted to the ship, plus all level 5 for T2 light drone skills, and at least level 4 for the ship itself.

Strategy: kite. Cruise missiles have very long range, and do the same amount of damage at all usable ranges.

Drones:
I'm too lazy to change my drones for every mission NPC, so I just use the ones shown above for all missions.
