|notes=The reduction in "duration" means that each afterburner cycle lasts less time. A shorter cycle means more tactical flexibility, letting you more easily switch between speed and fast alignment. Faster cycles also mean higher capacitor use, but this is more than balanced out by the additional 10% reduction in capacitor use per level. Most pilots train this to III as a prerequisite for {{sk|High Speed Maneuvering}} (and MWDs); if you use ABs a lot (deadspace PvE, armour HACs or solo PvP frigate work, for example) then pump more SP into this skill—together with {{sk|Fuel Conservation}} it can lower AB cap consumption to pretty negligible levels.<br>

|desc=Skill at creating effective cynosural fields. 10% reduction in liquid ozone consumption for module activation per skill level. Can not be trained on Trial Accounts.

|notes=The required skill to light cynos for other people to jump their capital ships to. The higher you train it, the less fuel you need to light a cyno, and the less cargo space your cyno ship needs.<br>

|notes=Affects every ship you fly, particularly important for specialisation in small ships and/or skirmishing/kiting tactics, but good for everyone. Level V is one of the prerequisites for [[Frigate#Interceptors|interceptors]].<br>

|notes=The vast majority of PvP fits involve a [[Tackling Guide#Microwarpdrive (MWD)|MWD]], so the vast majority of pilots train to use them.<br>

|notes=Since the spool-up time of a MJD is 12 seconds, each level in this skill buys you .6 seconds {11.4, 10.8, 10.2, 9.6, 9}.  Currently applicable for battleships and battlecruisers, as they are the only classes that can fit the [[Micro jump drive|MJD]], and for command destroyers, who can fit the [[Propulsion equipment#Micro jump drive field generator|MJFG]].<br>

|notes=Extra sub-warp speed on every ship you fly is a nice benefit for PvE or PvP combat, and is particularly important for pilots specialising in smaller ships. Many of the other skills in this category also require at least a few levels in Navigation.<br>

|notes=Dropping out of warp early because you don't have enough capacitor is inconvenient at best, and potentially quite dangerous if you're part of a PvP fleet operation. Training this to IV should solve that problem for all but the longest warps. Taking WDO to V is probably not a priority, but may help capacitor-hungry PvP pilots who want to arrive on the field with that extra sliver of available energy.<br>
