View source for Creating an Alt Orca Pilot

The objective of this plan is to enable a player to spend one PLEX to activate dual account training. At the end of these 30 days the player should have trained an alt that can fly an Orca with solid tank and the MWD align tick and be able to sit in the pirate battleship of the player's choice. This way the player has an OOC character that can move their hull and gear safe from WT aggression.

This plan has two main parts, the support skills and the ship skills. It uses the yearly re-map for the ship skills, but no re-map on the support skills. If a pilot really wanted to squeeze a few more things in I would use all three re-maps. First Int-Mem for supports. Then Cha-Wis for the leadership skills. Finally Per-Wis for the ship skills. This will give the player a few extra days to add in some other useful things mentioned at the end.

== Support Skills ==

=== Cybernetics ===

As soon as you finish Cybernetics plug in +3 implants of all types. The plan does not work without them.

* Cybernetics I (25 minutes)

=== Tank skills ===

The Orca Hull tanks with a secondary shield tank. Hence Hull Upgrades IV and Mechanics are key for a proper Orca tank.

* {{Sk|Tactical Shield Manipulation|IV|mult=yes}} (3 days, 15 hours, 26 minutes)
* {{Sk|Shield Management|III|mult=yes}} (11 hours, 35 minutes)
* {{Sk|Hull Upgrades|IV|mult=yes}} (1 day, 19 hours, 43 minutes)
* {{Sk|Mechanics|III|mult=yes}} (3 hours, 10 minutes)

=== Navigation Skills & Cap Skills ===

An Orca really needs an MWD to reduce its align time from 30+ seconds to 10 flat. This requires being able to fit the MWD and have sufficient cap skills so a pilot doesn't cap out after a few jumps of MWD assisted aligns. With the skills in this plan the pilot should be able to use the MWD & DC for every warp. The Active Shield modules can't be constantly run due to cap issues, but can be used in emergencies to buy extra time for CONCORD to arrive. Adding Navigation or Evasive Maneuvers would be a bit beneficial though do not anything new to the plan, just allow it to do things better.

* {{Sk|Power Grid Management|IV|mult=yes}} (17 hours, 59 minutes)
* {{Sk|Afterburner|III|mult=yes}} (3 hours, 51 minutes)
* {{Sk|High Speed Maneuvering|III|mult=yes}} (19 hours, 19 minutes)
* {{Sk|Warp Drive Operation|III|mult=yes}} (3 hours, 51 minutes)
* {{Sk|Acceleration Control|III|mult=yes}} (15 hours, 27 minutes)
* {{Sk|Capacitor Systems Operation|III|mult=yes}} (3 hours, 51 minutes)
* {{Sk|Capacitor Management|III|mult=yes}} (11 hours, 35 minutes)
* {{Sk|Jury Rigging|I|mult=yes}} (14 minutes)

=== Misc. ===

These skills are useful to tank up a pirate BS fro transport but are not really critical for the plan as a whole. Also they only allow the use of the T1 versions of the LSE and PDS, these skills would need to be raised to IV to enable the T2 versions, which is one way to expand this plan.

* {{Sk|Shield Upgrades|II|mult=yes}} (1 hour, 22 minutes)
* {{Sk|Energy Grid Upgrades|II|mult=yes}} (1 hour, 22 minutes)

== Ship & Leadership Skills ==

'''Remapping (active) : i17 p19 c19 w27 m17'''

This is where to use the remap in the plan if you are only going to use one.

=== Leadership Skills ===

The Orca Requires the following leadership skills to be injected. This is where most of the training for the Orca comes from.

* {{Sk|Leadership|I|mult=yes}} (6 minutes, 45 seconds)
* {{Sk|Mining Foreman|V|mult=yes}} (9 days, 14 hours, 37 minutes)
* {{Sk|Mining Director|I|mult=yes}} (33 minutes, 47 seconds)

=== Orca Ship Skills ===

* {{Sk|Spaceship Command|V|mult=yes}} (4 days, 15 hours, 32 minutes)
* {{Sk|ORE Industrial|III|mult=yes}} (14 hours, 24 minutes)
* {{Sk|Industrial Command Ships|I|mult=yes}} (54 minute, 3 seconds)

=== Pirate Battleship Skills ===

For this section the pilot needs to train the two racial ship skills needed for the pirate BS of their choice. 

* <first racial> Frigate III (7 hours, 12 minutes)
* <first racial> Destroyer III (7 hours, 12 minutes)
* <first racial> Cruiser III (18 hours, 1 minute)
* <first racial> Battlecruiser III (21 hours, 37 minutes)
* <first racial> Battleship I (54 minutes, 3 seconds)
* <second racial> Frigate III (7 hours, 12 minutes)
* <second racial> Destroyer III (7 hours, 12 minutes)
* <second racial> Cruiser III (18 hours, 1 minute)
* <second racial> Battlecruiser III (21 hours, 37 minutes)
* <second racial> Battleship I (54 minutes, 3 seconds)


With the +3 implants this finishes the train in just under 29 days. Without +3 implants this train is over 33 days.

Some other things to add:
* {{Sk|Shield Rigging}} to fit more buffer
* {{Sk|Thermodynamics}} to overheat hardeners
* {{Sk|Hacking}} to make this a scout/hacker
* The other two race's Battleships (very hard to do, might need all 3 re-maps)
* {{Sk|Cloaking|III}} so the alt can do the MWD+Cloak trick with the pirate BS (impossible to do with an Orca).
