The Magic 14: Difference between revisions

This page lists the 14 fundamental skills which benefit every single ship that a player can pilot in Eve, from a [[shuttle]] to a [[titan]]. Each of these skills is worthwhile for a new character to train.

== Engineering ==

: 5% bonus to ship CPU output per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: IV'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: V''

: This skill improves the ability to fit modules which utilize ship CPU enabling more sophisticated modules to be fitted.

: 5% bonus to ship power grid output per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: IV'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: V''

: This skill improves the ability to fit modules which utilize power grid so modules which consume power can be fitted more easily.

: 5% bonus to capacitor capacity per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: III'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: IV''

: '''Skill at regulating your ship's overall energy capacity.'''

: This skill improves the maximum capacity of your ship's capacitor which allows active modules to remain active for longer periods of time before the capacitor is fully drained.

: 5% reduction in capacitor recharge time per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: III'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: III''

: '''Skill at operating your ship's capacitor, including the use of capacitor boosters and other basic energy modules.'''

== Armor ==

: 5% bonus to structure hit points per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: II or III, depending on race'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: V''

: '''Skill at maintaining the mechanical components and structural integrity of a spaceship.'''

: This skill increases the hit points of your ship's structure, thereby increasing its [[Effective Hit Points|effective hit points]].

: 5% bonus to armor hit points per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: II or III, depending on race'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: V''

: '''Skill at maintaining your ship's armor and installing hull upgrades like expanded cargoholds and inertial stabilizers.'''

== Shields ==

: 5% bonus to shield capacity per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: I or II, depending on race'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: IV''

: '''Skill at regulating a spaceship's shield systems.'''

: This skill increases the hit points of your ship's shields, thereby increasing its total effective hit points.

: 5% reduction in shield recharge time per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: I or II, depending on race'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: IV''

: '''Skill at operating a spaceship's shield systems, including the use of shield boosters and other basic shield modules.'''

== Targeting ==

: 5% bonus to targeting range per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: I'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: III''

: '''Skill at long range targeting.'''

: This skill enables your ship to lock targets at greater distances which can be helpful for kite tanking and sniping.

: 5% improved targeting speed per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: I'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: III''

: '''Skill at operating targeting systems.'''

== Navigation ==

: 5% bonus to sub-warp ship velocity per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: III'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: IV''

: '''Skill at regulating the power output of ship thrusters.'''

: This skill enables your ship to travel faster at sub-warp speeds which enables you to more effectively chase down fast moving ships, escape more powerful opponents or mitigate damage by speed tanking.

: 5% improved ship agility for all ships per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: I'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: III''

: '''Skill at regulating the power output of ship thrusters.'''

: This skill improves your ship's agility which enables it to turn, accelerate and enter warp more quickly. It can mean the difference between escaping in a pod or losing expensive [implant]]s.

: Each skill level reduces the capacitor need of initiating warp by 10%. ''Starting Skill Level: I'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: III''

: '''Skill at managing warp drive efficiency.'''

== Spaceship Command ==

: 2% improved ship agility for all ships per skill level. ''Starting Skill Level: III'' - ''Alpha Clone Limit: IV''

: '''The basic operation of spaceships.'''
