Completion of Training for Frigates

Starwalker reviewed his training queue and decided that he was nearly finished with training for frigates. He had finally reached the necessary skills for Interceptors and Stealth Bombers. Two types of frigates that he had not flown yet.

It was strange that Starwalker had been training for over a year now almost continuously and more recently using +4 implants and had only recently completed most of the frigate training. As he looked over the skills he knew why - it was all of the support, fitting, different race and miscellaneous skills. In short, the training had been unfocused and Starwalker had skills for many different things including things like exploration and trading. It was only more recently that the training had been focused on the current and next ship to fly.

It was time to think about the next ship skills to add to Starwalker's repertoire and to focus training on those requisite skills such as medium weapons and drones. It seemed like T2 heavy assault cruisers were a little expensive and battlecruisers would offer much the same capability minus the speed and range control. However, that advantage in speed and range control of HACs might lead to a higher survival rate, especially during solo engagements.

Beyond the heavy assault cruisers, based on current skills, the obvious two battlecruisers to consider were the Hurricane and Drake. The Drake seemed a solid but slow choice and the Hurricane seemed to be a better generally for solo work. If so, the question might be as simple as focus training on either the Vagabond or Hurricane next.
