I know similar topics have been made, but this isn't for discussion, I just want to know how many trained BC V and Dessie V (with the prereqs for every race) just because of the upcoming skill split and possible HUGE sp giveaway tied to the whole "if you can fly it now, you can fly it post patch" notion. I know I did.

Also want to know who doesn't have BC/Dessie V and didn't immediately start training them the second the caught wind of the changes. Bittervets obviously already have both and probably all Cruiser/Frigate V.

I don't have either to V yet, but I have more than enough time to do so before the expansion. There are other things I want to get to first.

I trained up dessie V, already had BC V. Feel almost like a traitor for training the dessie skill past 1, but they buffed those ships so I guess I have to let my hatred for those things go, even though years ago it was a favorite past time to pop dessies in a frigate, still hold a perfect record of never losing to one too. Lost count how many I downed back than on my pirate alt.

Battlecruisers V is currently in the queue, yes. If there's time, I'll pop in Destroyers V too.

Luckily, I'm on a PER/WIL mapping as well. Bear

I trained both of those in...2008? Maybe 2007.

I guess the point being BC 5 should be an early priority anyway, and Destroyers 5 too if you live in null.

BC V will be done tomorrow.
Dessies aren't on my to do list.

I'm in the same position. I really don't want to touch Destroyers, but I almost feel compelled to train lvl 5 seeing as I am coming to the end of a Perc/Will remap.

I already did, with no regrets.

I regularly use Destroyers and Battlecruisers, and feel I have invested my time well.

I'm currently training the cruisers to 4, then the battleships and their guns to 4 for all races, so I should be capable to fly everything except missile boats for the summer.

Destroyers 5 finished last night, and BC 5 was the skill before that.

It's a combination of "we are changing the 'destroyers' skill to 'Amarr destroyer,' 'Caldari destroyer,' 'Minmatar destroyer,' and 'Gallente destroyer'" and "if you could fly it before the change, you'll be able to fly it after the change."

Nice troll attempt, but he uses the word "possible" in referring to the SP reimbursement.

so since I've BC on V since years and Des on IV, I should prolly go for Des V now?

So the current most possible action they can take is give us all 5 BC/ Dessie skills as long we have the requirements, so for those now currently training those would mean they're getting a 4x SP ratio in the future? That doesn't seem right.

Not like I'm training them right now as a gamble tho, don't feel like they are they can be so generous as previously stated.

Yeah pretty much what everyone is speculating, and the sp giveout will be huge if it happens that way, which is why many like me ditched their current training schedule to train BC/Dessie V. I had BC already, but I trained Dessie V and also all the prereqs for every race even though I don't fly Destroyers that much they're still useful and the Thrasher alone makes it worthwhile IMO

So from what I can see pretty much everyone is jumping on this bandwagon which will further increase the rage if CCP doesn't end up just giving away SP, which makes it less likely that they will do that ;)

Don't forget about Jump Freighters. In theory, as tech 2 ships, the ship revamp will require having racial freighter 5 as a prereq (currently freighter 4 is required.) Assuming that CCP doesn't change their mind, anyone who can fly a jump freighter should get a free bump from racial freighter 4 to freighter 5.
