Skill Discussions

I don't know if the nav skills are needed, and I don't know anything about the armor/shield compensation skills. I haven't used this char for much but I'd like him to be pretty close to a perfect logi pilot for any fleet/site.

Help would be greatly appreciated! My main question is which of these skills are necessary vs unnecessary for the intended task?

But yeah, basically please make sure the tail end of those skills are OK to be at the bottom of the list! That's my major problem here, just making sure that this plan is good for what I'm trying to do. Obviously going oneiros / scimi is a bit dubious in terms of marginal utility (since I can already go as the other type of logi), so that's not a commitment or anything, but just checking. Likewise, I might choose the guardian as the first priority over the Basi due to social reasons.

You won't need Multitasking or Targeting 5 right away, you can get away without having those if you use your watch list unless you're running Assaults/HQ sites.

I'd add Wing Commander 3 for FCing VG and Assaults. You won't be able to Logi well and FC.

It looks like you could get into a Basilisk faster with more support skills, but you seem to be set on a Guardian. Due to the competitiveness either is a fine choice. I'd honestly look at a Scimitar, especially if you get Logi 5. They are great for incursions and pvp.

Afterburner V is also debatable.

It doesn't save you that much capacitor, and has drawbacks when using dual prop setups and attempting to warp faster by shutting it off. The certificates suggest you need it to be elite though.

This is why I like one RS in shield fleets as anchor. Let them bring the armor drones when your in a shield group so your logi can keep to dps drones or shield rep drones. They can bring some mining drones too just incase a bit of ore is needed.
